Welcome to the MSI Preview presented by The Dive Driven by Kia! If you've only been following the LCS so far this year, this episode provides all the background you need as our teams head to Korea and face off against the world's top talent.The first game of MSI features TLAW vs T1. T1 has been a consistently dominant force but peak TLAW has pushed them to competitive series in the past. The question is whether TLAW can reach that level once again. Jose, in particular, has been a standout performer this split, but TLAW will need every player firing on all cylinders if they intend to defeat T1 and advance to the bracket stage.On that note, MSI main-stage brackets have yet to be released. In the meantime, our hosts analyse each region's no.1 seed. These teams represent the very best their regions have to offer: the sharpest tools in the shed, the brightest bulb on the chandelier, the cream of the crop. The result? Consistently exciting, aggressive, fast-paced, and entertaining matchups between the elite teams. The road ahead will be difficult, but our hosts remain optimistic about LYON's chances for success.Azael, Kobe, and Meteos also gave their opinions on the latest and greatest T1 Worlds Skins (and, to quote, “they go hard”). The striking team colors and rich history behind the designs make for detailed and eye-catching skins. Beyond their visual appeal, the skins feature additional sound effects that may just inspire you to play, and win, like T1! As impressive as these fresh skins are, we're curious about your opinion: do you feel like skins are deviating too far from the original silhouettes of champions? Let us know in the comments below!Thanks for tuning in to this episode of The Dive Driven by Kia! We'll be back on July 6th to break down all the action and excitement from the first week of MSI. Until then, enjoy the games, and we'll see you there!Timestamps:0:00 - Intro & T1 Worlds Skins Reactions8:31 - MSI Play-Ins10:55 - T1 Analysis23:11 - TLAW vs T133:37 - KC vs DCG47:51 - BLG Analysis57:52 - TES Analysis1:07:35 - HLE Analysis1:15:07 - G2 Esports Analysis1:22:19 - LYON Analysis1:27:18 - TSW Analysis1:32:44 - FURIA Analysis
The Automotive Troublemaker w/ Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier

The Unnamed Automotive Podcast goes full EV this week, starting with Benjamin's review of the 2026 Honda Accord Hybrid. He says it's not dull, or bland, but NORMCORE, whatever that means. Well, let him explain! It seems to do everything it needs to and can maybe even out-do its crossover cousins across the Honda showroom in a few things, like, say fuel economy. It's an interesting review of a sedan when there's so few to choose from in the first place. Then Sami revisits the 2026 Mitsubishi Outlander Plug-in Hybrid. Following Benjamin's positive impression of the Japanese crossover, Sami took it upon himself to compare it to the 2026 Kia Sportage PHEV, to find out if the Mitsubishi is actually good, or just good in a vacuum. Lots of surprises here! Then the show ends on a kind note from a listener. Thanks for listening!
Welcome to The Dawn Stensland Show. We kick off this gorgeous Friday ahead of Father's Day weekend by tackling the upside-down reality playing out in Ewing Township, New Jersey. Uniformed officers doing their jobs in a marked vehicle pursued juveniles driving a stolen Kia, resulting in a tragic crash that took the life of a 13-year-old girl. Yet, the sanctuary state's Office of Public Integrity and Accountability chooses to publicize and investigate the officers instead of charging the juveniles as adults. We react to the incredibly calm demeanor of the officers on the radio transmissions and detail how New Jersey's lack of its own major television news market leaves local departments defenseless against out-of-state media narratives that imply guilt before the facts are even fully verified. We shift our focus to Washington, where Vice President JD Vance took to the White House podium to deliver a comprehensive update on the fragile peace talks with Iran. Despite mainstream media claims attempting to compare this Memorandum of Understanding to the Obama-era deal, Vance makes it clear that the United States hasn't given up a single cent of American money. With gas prices officially dropping below $4 a gallon and 12.5 million barrels of oil moving safely through the Strait of Hormuz, Vance explains how the administration maintains an economic chokehold on Tehran. We break down the stark internal divisions between Iranian pragmatists and radicals, and why compliance remains the only path forward for their crumbling economy. Finally, we look at President Trump's exclusive, hard-hitting interview with Axios just before his weekend departure for Camp David. Trump insists the newly signed interim agreement amounts to an "unconditional surrender" by Tehran, boasting about the raw military capability of our B-2 bombers and the absolute enforcement of the naval blockade. We also check in on the geopolitical balance with Israel, as Trump asserts his strong relationship with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will keep the region stable and prevent a wider escalation in Lebanon. To wrap up the hour, we pivot to some lighthearted lifestyle talk, checking out the rising social media craze over anti-aging copper peptides
This week on The Driven Podcast, we talk Subaru's Trailseeker, Kia's new PV5 Cargo van, what's making the Jaecoo J5 so popular, and some new brands planning their way in the Australian market. We also unpack the sometimes confusing world of EV range claims. Plus, news of the week.
RiotPhroxzon joins us for a special episode of The Dive Driven by Kia! He shares behind-the-scenes insight into the development of Locke, League's newest champion, including the core goals that shaped the champion's design and abilities. Our four hosts also debated whether the new mid-lane assassin is likely to make an impact in professional play or if he'll be a solo queue menace.Looking ahead to MSI, the conversation turns to the upcoming patch and how its changes could influence the competitive meta. Fearless Draft remains a major topic of discussion, but the experimentation may be far from over (Freljord-only draft, anyone?).Azael, Kobe, and Meteos also break down the Arizona Spring Finals. C9 had a difficult series against TLAW, only for TLAW to suffer a similar fate against LYON the following day. While the hosts argue that pro-level games are often decided by team fights, what do you think are the key factors that separate the top teams from the rest?With the Spring Finals now complete, LYON advances directly to the MSI Bracket Stage, while TLAW heads to the Play-In Stage, where they'll face T1 on the first day of matches. Be sure to join us next week on The Dive Driven by Kia as we take a closer look at MSI's Play-In and Bracket Stages.

Denny Hamlin is back on Actions Detrimental after winning at Pocono, and apparently winning three straight races is just “a good run” now. Denny breaks down how the No. 11 team got it done, why Pocono fits him so well, and why he says their advantage is earned, not unfair. He gets into the strategy, the restarts, the qualifying piece, the final stage, and why Toyota has everyone's attention right now. Then Denny gets into the qualifying metric debate and, shocking no one, he has thoughts. He explains why he does not love the idea of random qualifying draws, why he thinks some teams need to stop blaming the format, and why “randomness is not sports.” Plus, Denny reacts to Zane Smith's restart move, the Austin Hill/SVG/Josh Berry crash, Legacy Motor Club's recent speed, the playoff bubble, SVG's next two weeks on road courses, the Josh Berry/Wood Brothers news, and the Michael Jordan comments that gave him a little extra fuel this offseason. Also in this episode: confetti gun chaos, Travis worrying about putting a Denny Bros sticker on his Kia, San Diego expectations, road course survival goals, Knicks talk, and Justin Allgaier locking into the Xfinity playoffs.

Jon Herold sits down with Steve and Terry of Loaded Gun Coffee for an episode that starts with bourbon pecan and ends somewhere much deeper. What began as a tribute project to honor family members who served turned into a discovery of just how deep their military roots run, including a great uncle still listed as MIA from World War II and a great uncle KIA in Korea at just 19. Steve shares his own six years in the Army during the Cold War, including two years lobbing artillery toward the Czech border in West Germany, and what he later realized that mission was really about. They also break down why they work exclusively with a small batch roaster, what makes their coffee stand out from the big guys, and how they juggle the coffee business alongside Steve's HVAC contracting work and Terry's nursing career. Plus, a Father's Day promo code you will want to grab before it is gone.

The car market is doing better than the mood of the country, and that contradiction is exactly where we start. We talk with Jack Nerad from America on the Road about what he's seeing up close, from California fuel prices to the real-world demand that keeps new vehicles moving even when the media drumbeat says the economy is falling apart.Jack shares highlights from a trip to Georgia to see Hyundai and Kia production firsthand, including how fast modern plants build vehicles and why early all-EV plans are getting rebalanced toward hybrids and other powertrains people will actually buy. We also unpack what those massive lots full of finished cars say about scale, logistics, and where the US auto industry is placing its bets.From there, we get practical for shoppers: the frustration of browsing a mountain of used listings (hello, Jeep Grand Cherokee), why prices can feel random, and where genuine value still exists in 2020s car buying. The Chevy Trax gets a surprising nod as a legit under-$30K option that doesn't feel cheap. And yes, we go straight at the engine debate, from turbo lag and downsized powertrains to Stellantis signaling a return to more horsepower and the enduring appeal of a normally aspirated American V8. We wrap with Jack's take on the Volvo XC60, quick racing calendar notes, auto history, and a wild Audi Nuvolari supercar headline.If you enjoyed the ride, subscribe, share the episode with a fellow car nerd, and leave a review so more listeners can find us.Be sure to subscribe for more In Wheel Time Car Talk!The Lupe' Tortilla RestaurantsLupe Tortilla in Katy, Texas Gulf Coast Auto ShieldPaint protection, tint, and more!Disclaimer: This post contains affiliate links.

On December 19, 2025, 31-year-old Corey Bryant disappeared from the Bemidji, Minnesota area. In the weeks leading up to his disappearance, Corey's life had become increasingly unstable. Loved ones noticed that he seemed withdrawn and fearful of the people around him. Corey reportedly hinted that things had become “weird” where he was staying and suggested he no longer felt safe there.Concern escalated in January 2026 when Corey failed to appear for a scheduled court hearing. As family members began comparing notes, they realized no one had spoken to him in weeks. Then they learned that several people connected to Corey had allegedly told others that he was dead.At the same time, reports surfaced that Corey may have been seen in late January, but those claims quickly became muddled. The witness later backed away from what they had initially reported, leaving Corey's family to wonder whether it was an innocent mistake or something more intentional.The last known communication investigators have been able to establish from Corey was on the night he disappeared, when he spoke with a friend by phone. During that call, Corey reportedly said that he was afraid of the people around him. He ended the call after saying he would call back. No one ever heard from Corey again.Nearly two months later, Corey's black Kia was discovered abandoned on a trail, with his phone found inside the locked vehicle. For Corey's loved ones, the circumstances surrounding his disappearance have only become more unsettling with time. The stories are inconsistent, the timeline is difficult to untangle, and Corey's family is still searching for the truth.If you have any information about the disappearance of Corey Bryant, please contact the Beltrami County Sheriff's Office at 218-333-9111.If you have a missing loved one that you would like to have featured on the show, please fill out our case submission form.Follow The Vanished on social media at:FacebookInstagramPatreonSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
When a car is reviewed so well that one of our hosts actually considers buying one, you know its going to be a good podcast discussion. This week starts off with such talk with Benjamin's review of the 2026 GMC Canyon AT4, which was so perfectly suited for his lifestyle that he seriously pulled up the spreadsheets and budgets to see if it could work for him. Hear what makes this truck so good, and maybe one of the best mid-size trucks on the market. Then Sami jumps in with a review of the only-for-Canada (so far) 2026 Kia EV4, something he said was revolting to look at when Benjamin reviewed it last month, but now has much more to talk about after testing it for a week. He dishes his pros and cons with this affordable EV and comes out feeling pretty good about the state of entry-level electric cars. Thanks for listening!

Book a free strategy call with CertainPath to see how we can help you hit your goals and beyond: https://bit.ly/4b0wLaZ Or call us at: (214) 453-1591 $17 million in residential HVAC sales. One comfort advisor in Boise, Idaho. Here's how Cord Nichols sells the top-tier system — every time. Cord Nichols isn't a closer who shows up Friday with a quote book. He's a comfort advisor at Diamond Heating & Cooling in Boise, Idaho — and he's quietly sold roughly $17 million in residential HVAC, including $2.25 million last year alone. He's a 7x Crown Champion at CertainPath, the program's top sales tier. Cord didn't start in HVAC. His first sales job was door-to-door — security in his early twenties. He moved to Utah looking for a wife, found her, then sold solar door-to-door before the solar industry tightened in the mid-2010s. Wanting a trade he could "sink his teeth into" — and not be a one-trick pony — he approached Diamond cold. He'd never sold HVAC. But owners Rick and Sue Ellen hired him for his sales background. Today he's a Dave Ramsey debt-free dad of four (with a fifth on the way) who recently paid off his mortgage — all on residential HVAC sales. In this episode, Cord walks Bob Houchin through the exact playbook — every question he asks, every option he names, every word he uses — for turning a single in-home consultation into a top-tier HVAC sale. In this conversation, you'll discover: • The $17M reveal — and the on-camera moment where Bob puts the career number on record • Why Cord opens every options reveal by repeating the customer's own words back to them • The Kia-vs-Toyota framing he uses to explain tiered HVAC systems in 30 seconds • The "Is there any reason I can't ask for your business today?" close — and the three answers it always produces • Why Cord names options after the customer's hobbies (the "14-Point Buck" move) • The clipboard intro that disarms skeptical homeowners ("I'm just going to be taking some notes") • "I am your one throat to choke" — the post-sale handoff line that earns lifelong customers Whether you're a comfort advisor working to break $2M for the first time, a sales manager building a residential HVAC playbook, or an owner trying to understand what consistent top-tier closing looks like — Cord's process is a masterclass in trust-first, conviction-led HVAC sales.

He's now a 7x CertainPath Crown Champion with roughly $17 million in residential HVAC sales — including $2.25 million in his most recent year.

Kia ora e te whānau. Ian Sharman is a straight-up Legend in the sport of ultramarathon running. A Coach and Athlete hailing from the Golden Age, before 4K cameras in everyone's pockets and when fans had to pass around a pirated copy of Unbreakable, Sharman and his kin were like trail gods, foreshadowing and inspiring the current crop of legends and doing things us regular people could only imagine, and we had to, because it was before the great trailrunning media bubble formed. Starting DCR 8 years ago after growing up in the sport, listening to Shaman on Trail Runner Nation and the like, and having him on the podcast is like a dream come true. The four-time Leadville winner and Grand Slam of Ultra Running record holder joins Ali and Andrew for a long overdue catch-up about life on the trails, his amazing achievements in racing and coaching, and the why behind his new book, The Art of Ultrarunning: Tried & Tested Strategies for Long Distance Runners.Dirt Church Radio—Best Enjoyed Running.--- --- --- Episode Links Ian Sharman InstagramSharman Ultra CoachingThe Art Of Ultrarunning PreorderSign up for the DCR AidStation newsletter.Dirt Church Radio on InstagramDirt Church Radio on FacebookFurther Faster New ZealandEnjoy!Music by Andrew McDowall, Digicake

You still have time to get your tickets to Spring Finals!https://mullettarena.com/event/legendschampionship/Patch 26.11 is here, and Azael, Kobe, and Meteos have a LOT of opinions. On this episode of The Dive Driven by Kia, the crew kicks things off by discussing the most recent game-changing adjustments, namely enchanter nerfs and some long-overdue tweaks to under purchased items. They also dive into the Quinn buffs but, rest assured, Kobe isn't worried about it (or so he says).On the LCS front, both series from Week 2 of Playoffs went the full five games, delivering plenty of gameplay for the gang to unpack. TLAW's CoreJJ seemed determined to push Inspired's buttons, forcing him to pivot through aggressive tactics. FlyQuest continues to show up with high energy and creative strategies, entertaining audiences and casters alike. C9, on the other hand, showed a masterclass in team coordination, highlighted by a game-winning Ashe play by Zven.Looking ahead, Week 3 begins with a competitive face-off between FlyQuest and Sentinels. We already know the SEN roster is stacked with talent, but will the fearless Bo5 format open the door for FlyQuest's inventive drafting to steal the spotlight? We'll find out this weekend! LCS is back on stage and tickets are available now— we hope to see you there!https://www.tixr.com/groups/lcs/Timestamps:0:00 - Intro & Ticket Callout1:16 - 2026 Coaching Staff of the Split5:29 - Patch 26.1129:58 - FLY vs C9 Recap53:48 - LYON vs TL Recap1:24:51 - FLY vs SEN Lookahead1:36:58 - TLAW vs SR Lookahead

FOLLOW UP: MOTABILITY PAUSES BLACK BOX USEMotability has announced that it will be pausing the ‘Drive Smart' scheme that included fitting a black box to cars owned by those under the age of 30 leasing a car from them. Unfortunately they are not cancelling it but will amend it and try again. This discriminates against disabled drivers rather than helping them be more independent and live as active a life as possible. Click this article link here, from Disability News Service, for more.FOLLOW UP: THE TREASURY REJECTED MINISTERIAL CALL TO DROP PUBLIC CHARGING VAT RATEThe Treasury Department stood firm in the face of calls, by ministers, to drop the VAT rate for public EV chargers to 5%. HMRC is appealing the tax tribunal that agreed it should be cut due to their own criterial making it clear it should not be charged at 20%. To read more, click this article link from Europe Says.GOVERNMENT EXTENDS FUEL DUTY CUTLast week the Government announced that it will be extending the fuel duty cut to the end of the year, thanks to the idiocy in the Middle East. Whilst this sounds like it should help people, there are lots of evidence that shows those who need such help the most are disproportionately affected in times like these meaning they stop driving. For personal car usage this helps only the wealthy, however in the wider transportation ecosystem this will help to keep some costs down and not add to the impact the crisis is already having.

He has now followed that up, to see if improvements have been made, some have but mostly not and there's new ones that are easily exploited and should wake the industry up (especially if combined with last week's story about the MyAudi app).

The regular season is over and Spring Playoffs are finally here! On this episode of The Dive Driven by Kia, Azael, Kobe, and Meteos open with a deeper discussion about LYON's in-game comms. While it may seem toxic to some, there's a level of understanding between the pros- friendship & flaming can go hand in hand when players aren't afraid to step on eggshells while communicating. How do you prefer to express yourself with your teammates?Dhokla and Saint are still competing for LYON's top lane spot, while FLY's Gryffinn pulled out a Nasus jungle that hasn't been seen in LCS pro play since 2013. Despite C9's undefeated regular season, one of the rarer accomplishments in the LCS, the team is still trying to earn back fans' trust after their performance at Americas Cup. Meanwhile, the top five teams all look dangerously competitive heading into playoffs, and even with Contractz bringing out his signature Olaf, SR still enters the bracket as the underdogs.After breaking down last week's matches, our hosts lock in their Round 1 Playoff predictions. Can FLY's champion pool find a way past the seemingly unconquerable C9? And in the highly anticipated rematch between TLAW and LYON, will revenge be on the table?Oh, and leave a comment for what Kobe should paint on Raz's face on broadcast this Saturday.

Carry the Legacy: Turning Loss into a Lifelong MissionThis week, Marcus and Melanie sit down with Ryan Manion, a remarkable leader, advocate, and Gold Star sister whose life mission is rooted in service, resilience, and legacy.Ryan's story begins with the life and sacrifice of her brother, Travis Manion, a U.S. Marine who gave his life on April 29, 2007, in Al Anbar Province, Iraq, while drawing enemy fire away from his wounded teammates. But as Ryan shares in this episode, her life has not been defined by that tragedy—it has been inspired by it.At the heart of Ryan's journey is one defining character strength: bravery. It's the courage to move forward, to persevere through unimaginable loss, and to live a life worthy of the sacrifices made by others. Travis's legacy continues to shape every decision she makes, fueling a mission that impacts thousands across the country.As the leader of the Travis Manion Foundation (TMF), Ryan carries forward a vision first started by her mother—serving veterans, families of the fallen, and inspired civilians. Through her leadership, TMF has become a powerful force for mentorship, character development, and community impact. Ryan brings a unique balance to this work—combining deep purpose with a sense of humor and humanity that allows her to see beyond grief and into transformation.Ryan also shares insights from her book, The Knock at the Door, co-written with fellow Gold Star women. Together, they recount the unbreakable bond formed through loss—and the strength found in choosing to move forward with purpose.This episode is a powerful reminder that we only get one shot at life—and it's up to us to make it count. Through service, resilience, and courage, Ryan Manion challenges us all to become the best versions of ourselves while lifting others along the way.In This Episode You Will Hear: • What I love about the Naval Academy is that it's so rich in tradition. (20:22)• Post 9-11 veterans did more in 1 or 2 years than I did in 30 years. (22:30)• I didn't feel nervous or scared about [my brother] being in Iraq. (24:48)• There was one night we were sitting at my house having a beer and he said “Hey, I just want you to know, if anything happens to me, I wanna be buried at Arlington.” (26:14)• In the last conversation I had with him, I said “You're over halfway done, you're coming home soon“ and he was like, “I don't think like that.” (29:14)• We had like 30 people in our house when they showed up. We got the knock at the door. (32:49)• One of my dad's best friends that morning, woke up, got the KIA report, and saw Travis' name on it. He said it was the hardest thing he ever had to do in his life - not pick up the phone and call my dad. (33:13)• The officer did what he had to do and he walked to his car, and about a half hour later, I looked out the window, and he was still parked outside and had his head on the steering wheel. (35:03)• Hearing those words that Travis had been killed, I just fell to the ground and started screaming “It's not fair!” (35:41)• And as I stepped inside, I remember thinking “Nothing's ever gonna be the same again.” (36:55)• To this day, nothing brings me more comfort than being around Travis' friend because I feel like there's a piece of him in the room. (42:53) • We are 18 years in, and we're now one of the largest veteran's service organizations in the country. (53:19)• I's creating a community for veterans when they take off the uniform. (55:24)• You look at our veteran population and they have some intangible skill sets that civilians just don't have.
