In the very first episode of Motherwhelm Memos, mothers from around the world answer one simple question:What is something about motherhood that no one prepared you for?The answers are raw, funny, heartbreaking, validating, and deeply honest.From navigating mum guilt, advocating for sick children, coping with sensory overload and the relentless mental load, to grieving the loss of certainty, parenting neurodivergent children, and living with the physical realities of pregnancy and postpartum, these voice notes capture motherhood exactly as it's being lived.These aren't polished interviews or carefully crafted stories.They're real voice notes, recorded in cars, backyards, kitchens, and the small moments mothers could carve out for themselves.Because sometimes we don't need advice.We just need to hear another mother say,"Me too." If you've ever wondered whether you're the only one carrying the invisible weight of motherhood, this episode is a reminder that you are not alone.
Jon Herold and Burning Bright dig deep into Andrew McCabe's own handwritten memos, piecing together the timeline from his firing to the launch of the investigation into Trump, complete with a Kamala Harris clip grilling McCabe that adds some extra context. It's detail heavy stuff, the kind of episode where the receipts do most of the talking. The second half takes a sharper turn, with Burning Bright calling out the Q community's habit of retroactively claiming they "knew" someone was a bad actor only after it becomes public record, while staying silent or even hostile toward Badlands and similar accounts pointing it out in real time. There's a direct ask to remember this moment for later. Add in a preview of an upcoming substack piece on what's being called the Democrat doom loop, and it's a mix of historical digging and present day accountability.
This week on Swimming with Allocators, returning guest Chris Schelling of Aksia joins Earnest Sweat and Alexa Binns to unpack how AI, private markets, and the wealth channel are evolving. They discuss where AI may already be in bubble territory, how it's reshaping SaaS, services, and investment processes (including AI “agents” on investment committees), and why some SaaS and low-value information services are most at risk. Chris explains Aksia research-driven approach across private equity, private credit, real assets, and hedge funds, and shares why he's skeptical of layered SPV “sandwiches” and headline-driven fear around private credit. The conversation explores the democratization of alternatives for wealthy clients, the role of content as a strategic edge for allocators, challenges in structuring venture access products, and why early-stage technical venture and quantum computing are compelling. Chris closes with advice for newer professionals: in a world of AI tools, differentiated relationships, networks, and deep domain expertise matter more than ever. Also, Nick Cassin explains how Sidley's secondary practice spans multiple asset classes and deal types, highlights the growing role of secondaries in venture (including GP‑leds and LP trades), and shares how Sidley's breadth, commercial mindset, and experience help clients navigate complex liquidity and continuation vehicle structures.

Patrick McKenzie is joined by returning guest Clara Collier, editor-in-chief of Asterisk Magazine, to discuss how working writers and reporters actually use LLMs. Patrick walks through the machinery behind his recent SPLC reporting, including "parallel construction" with LLMs: when sources can't go on the record, models can surface public confirmation of the same facts in unguarded podcast interviews, press releases, and prepared remarks. They also cover why the best smoking gun sat unnoticed on the coalition's own Twitter account, the David O. Selznick theory of the corporate memo, and where hardball politics in a democracy ends and crimes begin.–Full transcript available here: https://www.complexsystemspodcast.com/llms-and-writers-with-clara-collier-of-asterisk-magazine/–Presenting Sponsors: Mercury, MongoDB & ChainguardComplex Systems is presented by Mercury—radically better banking for founders.

OA1276 - Who could have predicted this? Us! The Trump administration has made their complete disdain for people with disabilities clear since day one. We've called it out before, and the natural progression of those efforts came to a head mid-June when they announced their intention to turn over governance of special education to RFK Jr in HHS (least trusted man in America when it comes to the needs of your child with a disability), continue dismantling the Department of Education overall, further reduce their investigations of educational discrimination, and, just two days later, their commitment to overturning major protections against forced institutionalization.

Then we go all-in on the big one: CMS's just-released proposed payment rule for 2027 — the proposed ASC update, the market-basket question, the Covered Procedures List, the device and NOPAIN provisions, quality-reporting changes, and the site-of-service savings — plus the summary and spreadsheet we built — and a video walkthrough coming to conferences.asc-central.com — to help you assess the impact on your center.

In this episode of the ASC Podcast with John Goehle, we cover the latest ASC industry news — Surgery Partners rejecting a $3.2 billion buyout from Bain Capital to stay independent, new VMG Health data on surgeon recruitment and the shift in anesthesia staffing, and a leadership piece on why “chasing volume” can be a surge to the bottom. We also share recent experiences from the field on board certification versus medical-staff bylaws, what surveyors are focusing on right now, and how preparation paid off during a real emergency.

In this episode, Bill Scher and Matt break down the disturbing implications now that she served as DNI, Trump's chaotic handling of Section 702 reauthorization, his bizarre blockage of a bipartisan housing bill, and JD Vance's audacious revisionist history on Watergate and the “deep state.” We also discuss the surge of democratic socialist wins in New York, Zohran Mamdani's strategic (and risky) moves, what it all means for the midterms, and much more.

Sheriff Robert Jonsen has spent nearly four decades in law enforcement, but his most important work didn't begin until 30 years into his career. After experiencing the hidden toll of the job and the “pebbles in the backpack” that leaders carry over time, he realized something the profession had long overlooked: if you want to serve others at your best, you have to take care of yourself first. In this episode of The Chief Exchange, Sheriff Jonsen opens up about the reality behind the badge and how mindfulness and breathwork transformed both his performance and longevity in the profession. We discuss the dangers of unhealthy coping mechanisms and what it actually takes to overcome them, as well as the importance of having a support network where you can be fully honest without judgment. He also shares why he converted his book into music albums to create a more powerful and relatable way to start conversations around stress and trauma, and how agencies can “weaponize wellness” to go on the offense when it comes to recruitment and retention. From setting clear expectations for new hires without sugarcoating the realities of the job to building cultures that prioritize well-being, this conversation is about resilience, transparency, and leading people in a profession that demands everything.

Newly released Justice Department memos from the early federal investigation into Jeffrey Epstein show that prosecutors were preoccupied with how Epstein's lawyers might attack the credibility of the girls who accused him of abuse. The memos described concerns that defense attorneys would point to past arrests, drug use, theft allegations, and inconsistencies in early statements to undermine witnesses at trial. Prosecutors also noted that some of the girls had been pressured into recruiting other underage victims for Epstein, something they believed the defense would exploit to portray them as unreliable. The memos further suggested that Epstein's legal team could examine social media activity and other aspects of the victims' personal lives in an attempt to discredit their testimony before a jury.Instead of preparing to counter those predictable defense tactics, federal prosecutors used them as justification to retreat from pursuing a full federal prosecution. The memos reveal a Justice Department that appeared more concerned about how Epstein's lawyers might embarrass vulnerable teenage victims in court than about holding a wealthy serial abuser accountable. That mindset helped lead directly to the notorious 2008 non-prosecution agreement, which allowed Epstein to avoid federal charges entirely despite extensive evidence gathered by investigators and a large number of victims who had come forward. Rather than testing the strength of their case before a jury, federal authorities effectively folded in advance, handing Epstein an extraordinarily lenient deal that protected him and shut down a broader federal investigation into his trafficking operation.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Jeffrey Epstein accusers had 'credibility challenges' including past arrests, changing stories, DOJ memos detailBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

The series of criminal charges against President Donald Trump topped headlines after his first term in office. Some of the key cases were dropped when he won his second term, but it seems that the charges may not be entirely off the table. Newly revealed documents suggest another case could be waiting for Trump after he leaves office again.We'll discuss this topic and others in this episode of Crossroads.Views expressed in this video are opinions of the host and the guest, and do not necessarily reflect the views of The Epoch Times.

Jon Herold comes in Wednesday with a full show and a story that has him reaching for the electoral college map. The FBI has opened a preliminary investigation into Wisconsin's 2020 election, and Jon walks through the math live: flip Georgia, flip Wisconsin, flip one more state, and the "not enough fraud to change the outcome" argument collapses entirely. The Arctic Frost memos reveal that Biden's FBI secretly preserved all Trump prosecution evidence until 2030, explicitly leaving the door open to revive charges the moment a Democrat takes the White House again. Trump is in Beijing with a delegation of A-list CEOs for the Xi summit, and Jon breaks down why Bill O'Reilly's source claiming a Taiwan-for-Iran deal is in play actually makes strategic sense regardless of whether you like Bill O'Reilly. Inflation is getting worse with the producer price index up 6% over the past year, Operation Epic Fury just got renamed Operation Sledgehammer, and Jon explains why that name change is a War Powers Resolution technicality designed to reset the congressional authorization clock. He also plays his own tax accountability compilation clip and explains why asking your elected representatives to justify taxation is not a radical act.

VR29 - Thomas, Lydia, and Matt go deep on the “Shadow Papers,” the 2016 shadow docket memos recently leaked to The New York Times which reveal the truth about the deliberations preceding the first time of many times to come that the Supreme Court stopped the government from enforcing something before any court had a chance to rule on it. Can anyone still possibly believe that John Roberts is only there to call “balls and strikes” after seeing how enthusiastically he is pitching for the energy lobby in these documents? Why are these glorified work emails so important, and what can we learn about the current state of SCOTUS from them? Watch the episode on YouTube! Chief Justice John Roberts's confirmation hearing (Sep. 12, 2005) “Read the Supreme Court's Shadow Papers,” The New York Times (April 18, 2026) West Virginia v.

Over the weekend, The New York Times revealed shocking new memos between Supreme Court justices showing how Chief Justice Roberts steamrolled his colleagues to use the emergency docket to overturn the Obama climate plan. This comes as the Roberts court has used the emergency docket to give President Trump dozens of victories just during his second term. Plus: Trump tries to push out Alito before Democrats take Senate control Justice Sotomayor issues a rare apology for comments she made towards Justice KavanaughThe Supreme Court has begun issuing $166 billion in tariff refunds (Though Trump is pressuring companies to not even apply for refunds they won in court) And Justice Thomas gets a little loose in remarks at UT Austin.
In this special episode of The Sound of Economics, host Rebecca Christie speaks with Bruegel's Zsolt Darvas and Heather Grabbe about the historic Hungarian election of April 2026. Péter Magyar and his TISZA party won in a landslide over the Fidesz party and Prime Minister Viktor Orbán, who has been in power for the past 16 years and changed the course of the European Union. Can Hungary unlock its EU funds and stay within its budget guardrails? What about the energy sector? Will the new government be more transparent about contracts with ties to Chinese and Russian investment? Is Hungary's outlook on Ukraine likely to change? Will Hungary ever join the euro?

Newly released Justice Department memos from the early federal investigation into Jeffrey Epstein show that prosecutors were preoccupied with how Epstein's lawyers might attack the credibility of the girls who accused him of abuse. The memos described concerns that defense attorneys would point to past arrests, drug use, theft allegations, and inconsistencies in early statements to undermine witnesses at trial. Prosecutors also noted that some of the girls had been pressured into recruiting other underage victims for Epstein, something they believed the defense would exploit to portray them as unreliable. The memos further suggested that Epstein's legal team could examine social media activity and other aspects of the victims' personal lives in an attempt to discredit their testimony before a jury.Instead of preparing to counter those predictable defense tactics, federal prosecutors used them as justification to retreat from pursuing a full federal prosecution. The memos reveal a Justice Department that appeared more concerned about how Epstein's lawyers might embarrass vulnerable teenage victims in court than about holding a wealthy serial abuser accountable. That mindset helped lead directly to the notorious 2008 non-prosecution agreement, which allowed Epstein to avoid federal charges entirely despite extensive evidence gathered by investigators and a large number of victims who had come forward. Rather than testing the strength of their case before a jury, federal authorities effectively folded in advance, handing Epstein an extraordinarily lenient deal that protected him and shut down a broader federal investigation into his trafficking operation.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Jeffrey Epstein accusers had 'credibility challenges' including past arrests, changing stories, DOJ memos detail

Tara and Lee break down what they call one of the strangest media weeks in recent memory — contrasting wall-to-wall missing-person coverage with explosive political allegations circulating online and in alternative outlets. The conversation dives into claims surrounding newly unsealed FBI affidavits, reported election irregularities in Fulton County, accusations of media blackout, foreign interference allegations, and questions about federal law enforcement preparation before the 2020 election. They also discuss disparities in national missing-person coverage and the broader role of cable news narratives. This episode contains strong opinions, controversial claims, and a deep critique of mainstream media priorities — presented through the hosts' commentary and analysis. In this episode, Tara opens by criticizing cable news coverage, arguing that major networks focused heavily on a single missing-person case while ignoring what she describes as major political revelations. The discussion centers on claims reported by alternative investigative outlets alleging FBI-documented election irregularities in Fulton County, Georgia, including alleged double-counting issues, missing ballot images, and certification concerns. The hosts also discuss allegations of foreign interference — including claims involving China and Iran — and speculate on connections between voter data breaches and absentee ballot fraud narratives. They examine reports that federal agencies prepared for potential post-election unrest months before the 2020 vote, questioning why such preparations were made. Throughout the episode, Tara and Lee frame these developments as evidence of media bias and a broader political cover-up, while comparing national media attention on high-profile missing-person cases with lesser-known kidnapping cases they argue received little coverage. The conversation blends political commentary, media criticism, and analysis of ongoing investigations and allegations.

We're counting down the top 5 episodes of 2025. Coming in at #1 is the legend, Howard Marks from Oaktree. I waited a while to have Howard on the show to capture a moment where one of his Memos particularly caught my eye. That happened when he wrote 'Gimme Credit' earlier this year. We dive into his thoughts on the implications of the growth of private credit for investors. With that, I hope you sprint to the finish line of this year with all the gusto in your soul, and come out on the other side of the ball drop with renewed excitement, aspirations, and energy for the year ahead.
