Monday's show covers the Dolphins' uncertain future, including Quinn Ewers getting his first win, Tua's possible exit, and Mike McDaniel's status, while weighing owner Stephen Ross' thinking on coaching and GM decisions. College football takes center stage with a preview of the Canes' big matchup against Ohio State and the importance of a good performance from QB Carson Beck. Around the NFL, Joe recaps key games, playoff implications, and shares his weekly picks. The show also dives into the Panthers–Lightning rivalry, Zach Wilson's NFL crossroads, and Baker Mayfield's comments on Miami. Lighter moments round out the program with Netflix picks, Dave Chappelle's stand-up, and Jamie scoring Panthers tickets.

A quiet ER visit turned into a wake-up call about perspective, gratitude, and the simple discipline of helping someone who is hurting more than we are. From that moment, we pull on a thread that runs through marriage, prayer, courage under fire, and a wartime Christmas message that still speaks with force today.We walk through Matthew 6 and its countercultural map for private devotion: give without fanfare, pray without performance, fast without display. The focus is not on religious optics, but on a Father who sees in secret and forms resilient character in hidden places. Genesis re-anchors marriage as a covenant of leaving and cleaving, where two become one flesh and reorder their lives with loyalty and tenderness. That bond becomes a launchpad for service beyond the home.History sharpens the point. We honor Private John W. Boutwell's Medal of Honor rescue, a portrait of courage that costs something. We also revisit FDR's 1942 Christmas message, which insists that goodwill toward man takes root in goodwill toward God. When we store treasure in heaven and choose one master, anxiety loosens its grip and integrity starts to rise—at the kitchen table and in the public square. The question becomes practical: who in your circle needs air, hope, or help today, and what would quiet obedience look like right now?Join us for a frank, faith-centered reflection that bridges scripture, marriage, service, and civic life.

In this holiday edition of Selective Ignorance, Mandii B is joined by super producer A-King and journalist Jayson Rodriguez for a layered, reflective conversation unpacking the cultural, emotional, and commercial realities of the holiday season. The episode opens with a warm introduction to the holidays and the shifting energy that comes with this time of year [00:00], setting the tone for a discussion rooted in nostalgia, cultural awareness, and modern-day realities. The hosts reflect on childhood Christmas memories and past holiday crazes, revisiting the toys, traditions, and moments that defined earlier eras [02:47], before examining how Christmas hits differently in adulthood—especially when navigating single life, expectations, and social pressure during the season [06:05]. From there, the conversation expands into cultural perspectives on how Christmas is celebrated across communities, highlighting both shared traditions and meaningful differences [08:56]. A deeper historical lens is applied as the crew breaks down the origins and evolution of Christmas, unpacking how religion, capitalism, and culture have reshaped the holiday over time [12:05]. That history connects directly to a discussion on Christmas crazes, consumer trends, and the role of marketing, questioning what gets lost when tradition becomes transactional [14:57]. The symbolism of Santa Claus and cultural identity is also explored, challenging how myths are constructed and who they are designed to serve [18:07]. As the episode progresses, the conversation turns toward historical revisionism and dominant cultural narratives, examining how certain stories are amplified while others are erased [37:37]. This naturally leads into a candid discussion about Black identity, the African American experience, and cultural inclusion during the holidays [39:34], followed by a thoughtful breakdown of Kwanzaa as a cultural alternative that emphasizes community, heritage, and self-determination [42:58]. Lighter moments balance the depth as the hosts touch on sports as part of holiday traditions [46:35], before diving into the timeless role of Christmas movies and holiday music in shaping seasonal mood and memory [54:41]. The conversation then turns to celebrity commentary and controversies surrounding Christmas, highlighting how public figures influence cultural debates during the season [01:00:51]. As the episode winds down, Mandii, A-King, and Jayson discuss the realities of navigating family plans and emotional boundaries during the holidays [01:01:19], along with the often-overlooked workplace dynamics, expectations, and burnout that come with end-of-year professional life [01:05:36]. The episode closes with reflective energy, positioning the holiday season as both a moment of pause and a bridge into the new year ahead.

The hosts also reminisce about personal anecdotes from holiday gatherings, tackle family dynamics, and discuss the implications of legislative changes regarding marijuana. Lighter moments include jokes and reflections on holiday traditions. The episode wraps with a heartfelt close, wishing everyone a merry Christmas and a happy holiday season.

The second of many from the haul from the New York State Cider Festival, Dan resamples Orchard Hill Cider Mill Heirloom Bold Complex. Orchard Hill Cider Mill Heirloom Bold Complex STYLE: Cider – DryINGREDIENTS: NY State Heirloom Apple varietiesABV: 7.0%AVAILABILITY: 16 oz. cans/Draft (Limited)Stats above taken from the brewery’s can and website. Appearance Straw yellow/light gold in color, slightly hazy, and with a bit of large-bubble carbonation. Aroma Freshly pressed cider apple flesh and a delicate sweetness behind it. Taste Fresh cider apple all the way with a faint sweetness near the finish. Mouthfeel Bone dry, with a light body and soft carbonation. Overall Dry ciders are generally more in my flavor presence, so this one feels right at home. The fact that this has zero added sugar is nice, especially for those that are watching the sugar/carb intake. Lighter fare like flatbreads or chicken dishes is what I was feeling, though it could be fun as a lead off for brunch with apple cinnamon pancakes or other complementary dishes. Cheers and remember: Life’s a tap…drink up ’til it’s dry.

Welcome to The Chopping Block — where crypto insiders Haseeb Qureshi, Tom Schmidt, Tarun Chitra, and Robert Leshner chop it up about the latest in crypto. This episode features special guest Vladimir Novakovski, Founder of Lighter, joining the crew to unpack the fallout from October 10's historic perpetuals liquidation event and the ADL research that sparked a public clash with Hyperliquid. The panel digs into how auto-deleveraging really works, why these failures were long hidden inside centralized exchanges, and what decentralized perps must fix to truly outperform TradFi. The conversation then turns to the intensifying perp wars. With Lighter's zero-fee trading model, premium tiers for pros, and a looming token launch, the hosts debate whether crypto is headed for a Robinhood-style fee reset, why TVL may matter more than volume, and how RWAs, FX perps, and cross-margining are reshaping market structure. Finally, they tackle the growing divide between tokens and equity as devcos get acquired and tokenholders are left behind. Perps are evolving, incentives are breaking — let's get into it.

This episode of Talking Real Money takes aim at the latest “easy money” illusion—house flipping—explaining why rising costs, higher interest rates, softer housing demand, and plain old competition have drained much of its appeal. Tom and Don connect flipping's decline to a familiar pattern of speculative behavior, much like day trading or past real estate manias, and reinforce why there are no reliable shortcuts to wealth. Listener calls drive a wide-ranging discussion on global diversification versus U.S.-only investing, the dangers of concentration risk in the S&P 500, how recency bias distorts performance comparisons, and why owning more markets matters more than making predictions. The episode wraps with practical retirement guidance for older investors, including simplifying portfolios with low-cost target-date funds, and closes with trademark humor and perspective. 0:05 Show open, intro banter, singing callbacks, and weekend rhythm 0:28 House flipping compared to day trading and FOMO investing 1:28 Why flipping activity is down sharply: costs, rates, and competition 3:41 The myth of “passive income” in real estate 4:50 Softer housing markets and demographic headwinds 6:02 No magic systems—long-term investing still wins 8:27 Lisa (Colorado): investing nonprofit funds at Vanguard 10:30 VOO vs VTI vs VT and the case for global diversification 12:29 Volatility, standard deviation, and diversification basics 14:44 Sharpe ratios, recency bias, and misleading performance metrics 16:54 Charles (Seattle): Boeing plans, VOO, and AVGE at Schwab 18:32 S&P 500 concentration risk and the “Magnificent Seven” 21:33 Jason (Sammamish): VTI vs VT debate and long-term market data 28:41 Debbie (Camano Island): portfolio risk concerns at age 73 31:20 Risk tolerance vs risk capacity in retirement 33:16 Vanguard target-date funds as a simple retirement solution 36:01 Lighter close with creative fundraising and holiday humor Learn more about your ad choices.

What if you could build a yacht that combined the speed and efficiency of a racing craft with the grandeur of a floating villa? That was the vision founder Peter Johnstone brought to life when he launched Gunboat in 2002, creating an entirely new category of high-performance cruising catamaran. Gunboat's twin-hull design provides remarkable stability compared to traditional monohulls, allowing the deck to stay flat and maintain pace even in challenging sea conditions. Carbon fiber is used to construct the catamarans for extreme lightness and exceptional durability that lasts forever. The lightweight design isn't just about speed, but also sustainability. Lighter boats sail more and motor less. With solar integration, electric systems, and ongoing research into recycled composites and bio-resilient materials, these vessels represent responsible seamanship for the future. We traveled to Gunboat's purpose-built shipyard in La Grande-Motte in southern France to meet Rodolphe Cadoret, Marketing Director at Gunboat. Rodolphe walks us through every stage of the building process, from the composite workshop through to assembly, carpentry, and the meticulous painting rooms where flawless metallic finishes emerge. He gives us a full picture of how, supported by PTC partner 4CAD, Gunboat uses digital precision to transform physical performance on the water. PTC's Brian Thompson then joins us to explain how Creo's model-based approach and integrated surfacing capabilities enable Gunboat to accelerate time to market dramatically. Find out more about Gunboat here.Find out more about Creo here.Your host is Paul Haimes from industrial software company PTC.Episodes are released bi-weekly.

In this special episode of MakingChips, we broadcast from the EBITDA Growth Systems Double Your Value Planning Event—a gathering designed to pull shop owners out of the day-to-day grind and force intentional thinking about long-term growth. This year's event was hosted at the Sandvik Coromant facility in Mebane, North Carolina, creating a perfect backdrop for conversations about planning, strategy, and culture. Paul is joined by three key voices who bring decades of hard-earned manufacturing wisdom: Jim Carr, a founding voice of MakingChips; Zach Overton, who is deep in the trenches of leading a multi-generation shop through transition and growth; and David Capkovitz, co-founder of EBITDA Growth Systems, whose strategic coaching framework is the backbone of this entire event. They pull back the curtain on why the event exists, how planning actually becomes actionable, and how shops can double their value in three years. Together, they dive into the realities every manufacturer faces—financial blind spots, operational challenges, cultural shifts, succession dilemmas, and the emotional weight of leadership. David's perspective as a coach blends seamlessly with Jim and Zach's lived experiences, creating a conversation that's equal parts strategic and deeply human. This episode highlights why stepping away from the shop floor is often the missing link for achieving the next level of growth. Whether you're planning for 2026, building resilience for a generational handoff, or simply trying to stop fighting fires, the insights shared here offer a clear direction forward. And yes—there's also a Cheerwine Old Fashioned or two. If you're ready to plan your next chapter with more clarity and confidence, this episode gives you the mindset and the roadmap to get started.

In this episode of Postpartum Unpacked, Trish gets into the often-overlooked topic of lochia - postpartum bleeding. Trish breaks down what lochia really means, why it happens, and how to navigate it with confidence. Drawing from her experience as a labor nurse, she explains the healing process after birth, shares practical tips for comfort, and emphasizes listening to your body. Whether you're a new mom or preparing for postpartum, this episode reassures you that lochia is a normal part of recovery and a sign of your body's incredible strength.Key Topics DiscussedUnderstanding Lochia: Lochia is your body's natural healing process after the placenta detaches, leaving a large wound (about the size of a dinner plate) in the uterus. It involves shedding blood, tissue, and leftover cells as the uterus shrinks back to its pre-pregnancy size. Trish describes lochia as the visible part of this internal cleanup.The Three Stages of Lochia:Lochia Rubra (Days 1-4, up to 7): Bright red, heavy bleeding similar to a period. Small clots are common, especially after standing or nursing (which releases oxytocin and helps the uterus contract).Lochia Serosa (Days 5-10, up to 2 weeks): Lighter flow turning pinkish-brown. Clots should be rare and very small, indicating the uterus is contracting effectively.Lochia Alba (Week 2 to 6+): Yellowish or whitish discharge with mucus. This signals the final stages of wound closure.Note: Everyone's body is different, so timelines may vary. If bleeding suddenly returns to bright red after lightening, it's a signal to rest - your body is saying you've overdone it.Practical Tips for Managing Lochia and Postpartum Comfort:Underwear and Pads: Embrace hospital mesh panties or disposable incontinence underwear in the early days. Use giant postpartum pads (ask for extras at the hospital).No Internal Products: Skip tampons or menstrual cups until cleared by your provider - your cervix is open, and infection risk is high.Peri Bottle: Fill with warm water to gently clean the area instead of wiping. Pat dry for comfort. Add witch hazel or aloe if approved.Sitz Bath: Use warm water (with Epsom salts or safe herbal mixes) in a portable basin on the toilet. Great for soothing stitches, swelling, hemorrhoids, or general freshness.Witch Hazel Pads (Tucks Pads): Refrigerate and line your pad with them for cooling relief from soreness, swelling, or hemorrhoids.Nutrition and Hydration: Stay hydrated and eat iron-rich foods to rebuild blood volume and support healing. When to Call Your Provider: While lochia varies, watch for red flags and seek help immediately if:You're soaking a pad in an hour or less.Passing clots larger than a golf ball (notify even if smaller ones occur after lying down).Bleeding has a foul smell (beyond normal).You feel dizzy, weak, or short of breath.Persistent bright red bleeding after resting, especially weeks in.Trust your instincts - better to report concerns and prevent issues like hemorrhage or infection.More from this episode:Postpartum Recovery Essentials Amazon ListHelpful Timestamps:00:00 Introduction to Postpartum Bleeding00:53 Understanding Lochia: The Healing Process01:44 Stages of Lochia: What to Expect04:16 Practical Tips for Managing Postpartum Bleeding09:11 When to Call Your...

In this episode of "Normal World," Dave Landau, 1/4 Black Garrett, and Angela open with Tyra Banks' attempt to launch “hot ice cream” and the 50th anniversary of Jaws. The hosts then turn their attention to the now-infamous Mississippi “herpes monkey” story, where an escaped lab monkey was fatally shot after a highway crash left one still on the loose. They react to the viral interview that followed, unpacking how a small-town encounter spiraled into national headlines and online hysteria. From there, they rediscover the long-lost reality show Gary Busey: Pet Judge, exploring how the actor's bizarre courtroom rants unintentionally capture the absurdity of modern entertainment. The episode pivots into a heated cultural debate after a viral clip from Gold's Gym in Los Angeles shows a woman confronting management for allowing a biological man in the women's locker room. The hosts weigh in on safety, double standards, and the growing confusion around privacy and identity in public spaces. Lighter moments return as they trade post-Halloween stories about over-the-top neighborhood displays, unexpected adult treats, and childhood memories of awkward school “safety” programs. The night wraps with an irreverent take on political headlines and the show's signature blend of skepticism and satire about fame, hypocrisy, and the line between news and parody. Today's guests on "Normal World" are Kevin Sullivan and Frank Easterling from the 21 Gun Podcast. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
