This is a Proper Victory Monday episode following Ryan Fox's first major championship win! Andy and Brendan went LIVE on YouTube on Sunday afternoon to recap a whirlwind of a final round at Royal Birkdale. Of course, they begin with the 2026 Champion Golfer of the Year, Ryan Fox, who birdied the 18th hole to win in regulation and avoid a playoff with Cameron Young. Kevin Van Valkenburg stops by from the Open Media Center to share some notes from his afternoon following the final group, setting the scene for one of the best major finishes in recent memory. Brendan spent his time on the course with local hero Tommy Fleetwood and World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler, latter of whom found himself in a rules situation with the same walking official as Bryson's group on Friday. Brendan was front-and-center for one of the great TIO debates of our time and provides a bevy of information as to what was happening in the moment. He then gets Andy going on his thoughts on Royal Birkdale and the course's recent renovations that prepared it for this Open Championship before Andy continues on with some critiques of NBC's coverage throughout the weekend. There are plenty Storylines Nobody's Talking About to wrap the week, covering all-important Wikipedia Top Tens, Rory's work as a lead negotiator, and what was going down on Twitter during the Sunday broadcast. PJ gets tapped to share his thoughts on a runner-up finish for Cameron Young, whose score of -9 looked like it may hold up for the last 2.5 hours of the tournament. Thank you for following along during another year of daily major podcasts, and we look forward to doing it again in 2027! Mercedes-Benz is proud to be an Official Patron of The Open Championship.

Andy returned to join Brendan! for this beefy recap of moving day at Royal Birkdale. The two went LIVE on YouTube right after play ended to discuss the fallout from Bryson's two-stroke penalty, Rory McIlroy's response, and the actual golf tournament that's unfolding. Andy gives his take on the Bryson situation and the two-time major champion's impressive Saturday round that still has him in contention for his first Claret Jug. Rory McIlroy, pending insanity, is not in contention to win, but did offer some pointed thoughts about the penalty and the penalized player in his post-round press conference. Kevin Van Valkenburg stops in to share more thoughts from the ground, including some comments from other players about the penalty and how it was handled by the R&A. Brendan spent the day following the tournament's leader, Sam Burns, who looks to move past the heartbreak of Oakmont, Augusta, and Shinnecock and secure his first major on Sunday afternoon. Andy and Brendan play a lengthy game of Contender or Pretender, highlighting a strong top of the leaderboard after big Saturday rounds from Si Woo Kim and Ludvig Åberg. PJ is called to the carpet to explain Cameron Young's failure to launch despite his place in the penultimate group on Saturday and provides some context for Kevin Kisner's mid-day tweet-spree. To close things out, Brendan once again quizzes Andy on some of the insane official slogans of the Open Championship, found in various places around the golf course this week. We will return on Sunday evening with a comprehensive recap of the 2026 Open Championship and continued coverage of Bryson DeChambeau's latest exploits!

Na slovenskom online autobazáre Autobazar.EU sa aktuálne nachádza 250 inzerátov osobných vozidiel s nájazdom nad 400-tisíc kilometrov – teda áut, ktoré prešli vzdialenosť rovnajúcu sa viac než desiatim cestám okolo Zeme. Analýza tejto ponuky ukazuje jasný vzorec: v lukratívnom klube suverénne dominuje diesel a spomedzi značiek najčastejšie Škoda, konkrétne model Octavia. Analýzu vypracoval motoristický novinár Erik Stríž.Diesel má drvivú prevahuZo skúmaných 250 inzerátov má až 227 vozidiel, teda 90,8 %, naftový motor. Benzínových áut je len 18 (7,2 %) a zvyšných päť jazdí na LPG v kombinácii s benzínom.Tento pomer len potvrdzuje dlhodobo známy fakt, že naftové motory – najmä osvedčené jednotky typu 1.9 TDI, 2.0 TDI, TDCi či CDI – boli po desaťročia konštruované s dôrazom na vysoké ročné nájazdy a dlhú životnosť motora, čo z nich robilo prirodzenú voľbu pre firemné vozové parky, taxislužby aj vodičov s dennou dochádzkou na veľké vzdialenosti.Benzínové motory sa medzi autami s vysokým nájazdom objavujú výrazne zriedkavejšie, hoci analýza ukazuje, že pokiaľ sa už na takom vysokom kilometrovníku objavia, ich priemerný nájazd v tejto skupine nie je nižší než pri dieseloch.Škoda a Volkswagen spolu tvoria tretinu ponukyZastúpenie značiek jednoznačne kopíruje ich dlhodobú obľubu na slovenskom trhu. Najviac inzerátov patrí Volkswagenu (42) a Škode (41), spolu teda takmer tretina (33 %) všetkých vozidiel s nájazdom nad 400-tisíc km. Nasleduje Mercedes-Benz (32 áut, 12,8 %), Audi (22), BMW (18), Ford a Volvo (po 12) a Renault (10). Zvyšok ponuky je rozdelený medzi desiatky ďalších značiek.Pri pohľade na konkrétne modely jednoznačne vyniká Škoda Octavia – tvorí až 68 % všetkých inzerátov tejto značky (28 zo 41) a s veľkým náskokom je najčastejším modelom na trhu vysokých nájazdov vôbec.Druhá je Škoda Superb (11 kusov). Medzi ďalšie najfrekventovanejšie modelové rady patria Volkswagen Passat, Mercedes-Benz Triedy E, Audi A6, BMW radu 5, Volkswagen Golf a Volkswagen Sharan.Ide prevažne o modely strednej a vyššej strednej triedy, ktoré boli po dlhé roky obľúbenou voľbou firemných flotíl a nemeckého aj domáceho dovozu.Priemerný vek 15 rokov, no výnimky idú aj proti prúduPriemerný rok výroby skúmaných vozidiel je 2011, čo zodpovedá priemernému veku približne 15 rokov. Najstarším zastúpeným vozidlom je BMW radu 3 z roku 1987, no zaujímavosťou je, že hranicu 400-tisíc kilometrov v ponuke prekonalo aj niekoľko výrazne mladších vozidiel z rokov 2020 až 2023 – typicky ide o bývalé firemné, lízingové alebo dovozové vozidlá s intenzívnym ročným nájazdom.Priemerný nájazd v celej skupine dosahuje 456-tisíc kilometrov, medián je 437-tisíc km. Podľa značiek dosahuje najvyšší priemerný nájazd Mercedes-Benz (takmer 500-tisíc km), nasledovaný Volvom a Škodou. Tento údaj je však potrebné čítať opatrne – nejde o dôkaz vyššej technickej odolnosti konkrétnej značky, keďže vzorka odráža len aktuálnu ponuku inzerátov, nie štatistiku skutočnej životnosti vozového parku.Kombi je kráľom vysokých nájazdovZ hľadiska karosérie jednoznačne prevažujú kombi vozidlá (31 % ponuky) – logicky, keďže ide o karosériu tradične spájanú s vyšším ročným nájazdom, firemným využitím aj rodinami s deťmi. Nasledujú sedan (19 %) a SUV (15 %), pričom zvyšok ponuky tvoria dodávky, MPV, hatchbacky a iné typy karosérií.Manuálna prevodovka mierne prevažuje nad automatickou (57 % oproti 41 %), pričom zvyšné 2 % tvoria iné alebo neuvedené typy, čo opäť súvisí s vekom vozidiel – automatické prevodovky sa v nižších a stredných triedach masovo presadili až v poslednej dekáde.Čo z toho vyplýva pre kupujúcichAnalýza potvrdzuje, že diesel spojený s osvedčenými modelmi ako Škoda Octavia, Volkswagen Passat či Mercedes Triedy E si dodnes drží povesť „nezničiteľného" auta schopného zvládnuť aj státisíce kilometrov.Zároveň treba pripomenúť, že vysoký nájazd sám osebe nehovorí nič o technickom stave konkrétneho kusu – rozhodujúca je história servisu, kvalita údržby a doklady o priebehu najazdených kilometrov. Pri kúpe vozidla s nájazdom nad 400-tisíc kilometrov preto odborníci odporúčajú dôkladnú kontrolu histórie vozidla a vykonanie komplexného preverenia vozidla nezávislým technikom.K metodike analýzyAnalýza vychádza z ponuky portálu Autobazar.EU k 8. júlu 2026 – z filtra osobných vozidiel s nájazdom od 400 000 km (250 inzerátov). Zastúpenie značiek, paliva, karosérie a prevodovky vychádza z celej množiny 250 inzerátov, podrobnejšie štatistiky nájazdu podľa modelov zo vzorky 236 z nich. Zvyšné inzeráty boli z hodnotenia vylúčené, keďže išlo o evidentné chybne uvedené údaje alebo mali iné vážne dôvody na nezaradenie do výberu.
Despite two record-tying rounds of 62 on Friday at Royal Birkdale, Bryson DeChambeau remains the lead story yet again. Brendan, Kevin Van Valkenburg, and Joseph LaMagna went LIVE on YouTube to recap the second round of the 2026 Open Championship, only to have a two-shot penalty assessed to DeChambeau, then in second place, derail the entire show. The three reacted in real-time to the theatrics playing out on the fifth hole, where DeChambeau re-enacted his movements from earlier in the day in front of rules officials from the R&A. Kevin went to go scout out the scene on the ground, leaving Joseph and Brendan to make sense of what was unfolding. The two-shot penalty moved DeChambeau from solo second, just one shot back of Lucas Herbert, down to a tie for fifth alongside Sam Burns and Si Woo Kim. Joseph, Brendan, and PJ do highlight standout the two 62s from Burns and Herbert, as well as the continued strong play of Cameron Young and Ryan Gerard, but the majority of this episode is spent on Bryson and the ensuing ruling that could cost him his third major championship. The three mention notable missed cuts before setting the scene for a weekend at Royal Birkdale that is sure to deliver, even more than we originally thought!

Fresh off a full day at Royal Birkdale, Brendan joined Andy as they went LIVE on YouTube to recap Thursday of the 2026 Open Championship! The two discussed the biggest storylines of the day, leading off with the return of the Content King, Bryson DeChambeau. Bryson fired a 67 and is in position to make the cut at a major for the first time this year. Despite declining to talk to the media, an interview with the Open's digital team became the main story of the afternoon after Bryson took subtle aim at Nick Faldo's comments from earlier in the week. Andy and Brendan also discuss a strong start from Scottie Scheffler, a possible return to form for Cameron Young, and a "vintage mid-2010s round" from Rory McIlroy. "Storylines Nobody's Talking About" makes a Thursday return, highlighting some struggles from Champions Tour legends and a potential World Cup-induced hangover for the Englishmen in the field. We will be back again tomorrow afternoon as play concludes to set up the final major championship weekend of 2026! Mercedes-Benz is proud to be an Official Patron of The Open Championship.

Andy and Brendan went LIVE on YouTube for this final major preview episode of 2026! Brendan is in high spirits after traveling across the pond to find a baked-out Royal Birkdale that he describes as "fiery, firm, and brown." The two get going on the course setup and the choices that players must make on a variety of holes throughout the round. This is a new-look Royal Birkdale following an extensive renovation ahead of this year's Open Championship, and reviews seem to be mixed on whether the course is better than it once was. Scottie Scheffler made some pointed comments about the course during his pre-tournament press conference, leading to a discussion about whether this venue is truly "forged by nature." Andy's 5 Guys to Monitor This Week highlights the two best players in the world, two hometown heroes looking for their first major, and a LIV defector who can lock up PGA Tour status for next year with a good showing. With a relatively wide-open field, it felt like a good time to re-rank the top five players in pro golf heading into the week, as well. Kevin Van Valkenburg joins in the fun to discuss Tuesday's press conferences getting deeply existential and shares some scuttlebutt from the grounds. To put a bow on this preview, Andy, Brendan, KVV, and PJ make their picks to win the Claret Jug and choose sides in a much-anticipated installment of Games Within a Game.

Olej je potrebné meniť aj na elektromobile, univerzálne autoservisy sa nikdy nerovnajú tým autorizovaným a áno, každá automobilka má vlastné špeciálne náradie. O mýtoch, predsudkoch a realite slovenských autoservisov s riaditeľom Hedin Automotive Slovakia, Milanom Klacikom.Zabudnite na mýty o predražených službách. Rozdiel medzi autorizovaným a neautorizovaným servisom nie je len v cene, ale najmä v diagnostike, špeciálnom náradí a v tom, či po oprave nestratí vaše auto na hodnote. A ak ste si mysleli, že pri elektromobile stačí len dolievať vodu do ostrekovačov, čaká vás prekvapenie.Mnoho vodičov vníma autorizovaný servis ako drahšiu alternatívu, ktorú navštevujú len z donútenia, kým im platí záruka na nové vozidlo. Akonáhle táto doba uplynie, ich kroky často smerujú k univerzálnym garážovým mechanikom v snahe ušetriť stovky eur. Podľa Milana Klacíka, riaditeľa popredajných služieb spoločnosti Hedin Automotive Slovakia, to však môže byť z dlhodobého hľadiska chyba.Prečo je obyčajné ložisko nočnou morou univerzálnych mechanikov?Aj keď v neautorizovaných servisoch pracuje množstvo šikovných ľudí, problémom býva chýbajúce špecifické vybavenie. Klacik ako príklad uvádza bežnú výmenu ložiska v kolese. Kým garážový mechanik ho často vylisuje a nalisuje "kusom železa", čím môže zatlačiť na nesprávny krúžok a poškodiť klietku ložiska, autorizovaný servis má na tento úkon špeciálny prípravok vyrobený s desatinovou presnosťou. „Vy to ložisko tam nalisujete... Zase auto vám bude fungovať ďalších x tisíc kilometrov, ale životnosť toho ložiska sa extrémne zníži,“ upozorňuje Klacík.Veľké autorizované siete disponujú technológiami za státisíce eur, ktoré bežná dielňa jednoducho nezaplatí. Ide napríklad o špeciálne plničky, ktoré dokážu vyvinúť vysoký tlak potrebný na odvzdušnenie bŕzd elektromobilov, obrovské lakovacie boxy, zdviháky s nosnosťou 700 kg pre ťažké batérie, či špeciálne bodové zváračky zaručujúce bezpečnú tuhosť karosérie aj po vážnej nehode.Elektromobily rozhodne nie sú bezúdržbovéV spoločnosti sa udomácnil mýtus, že elektromobil má len batériu a elektromotor, a preto servis už vôbec nepotrebuje. Odborník to však rázne vyvracia. Elektromobily sú ťažšie, čo znamená vyššie riziko rozladenia podvozku a nutnosť pravidelnej kontroly geometrie, inak hrozí nadmerné opotrebenie pneumatík. Taktiež disponujú takzvaným reduktorom (planétovou prevodovkou), v ktorom je nevyhnutné pravidelne meniť olej. Počas prehliadky technici dokonca prísne kontrolujú správny uťahovací moment na svorkovniciach vysokonapäťových káblov, aby sa predišlo skratom či dokonca požiaru.Dôvera, ktorá zvyšuje hodnotu autaAutorizovaný servis prináša aj niečo, čo bežne nevidíte – istotu a transparentnosť. Každé auto prechádza prísnymi kontrolnými listami (často aj 50 až 60 položiek) a procesy podliehajú "pravidlu štyroch očí", kde prácu mechanika preveruje ešte majster alebo servisný poradca. Táto dôkladne zdokumentovaná servisná história priamo zvyšuje hodnotu vozidla a jeho atraktivitu pri následnom predaji.Ak navyše plánujete kúpiť jazdené auto, autorizované servisy ponúkajú takzvané bazárové prehliadky. Za zhruba hodinu mechanici preveria 42 bodov, napoja auto na originálnu diagnostiku, skontrolujú stav batérie a urobia prejazdovú geometriu. Zákazník tak nekupuje povestnú "mačku vo vreci".Boja sa staršie autá autorizáku?Automobilky veľmi dobre vedia, že pri starších autách majitelia citlivejšie zvažujú náklady. Preto napríklad Mercedes-Benz ponúka program Service Select pre vozidlá staršie ako šesť rokov. Zákazník tak získa atraktívnejšiu cenu za prácu a môže využiť tzv. StarParts – originálne diely s mierne kratšou životnosťou, no za výrazne výhodnejšiu cenu.A ak ste doteraz navštevovali iný servis a chcete sa vrátiť k oficiálnej značke? Nemusíte sa báť odsudzovania. „Určite nie... Ak niekto prejaví dôveru a zastaví sa u nás, na to máme servisných poradcov, aby mu buď poradili, alebo poskytli služby, o ktoré bude mať záujem,“ uzatvára Milan Klacík s tým, že dvere autorizovaného servisu sú otvorené pre každého.
This week on Autonomy Signals presented by KPMG Grayson Brulte and Rob Grant discuss Tesla's Unsupervised Robotaxi launch in Miami, Waymo's July 4th stumble in San Francisco, and Momenta's oversubscribed IPO on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange.On July 5, 2026, Tesla launched Unsupervised Robotaxi service in Miami, its first unsupervised market outside of Texas, with retrofitted Model Ys operating through heavy rain and flooded roadways during the heart of hurricane season.Grayson was on the ground for launch day, riding through South Florida's mini lakes without a single hesitation from the vehicle, and uncovered a Cybercab staging lot near Miami International Airport with dozens of vehicles ready to deploy. The Miami launch is a deliberate stress test of Tesla's camera-only system against the exact adverse weather conditions currently under NHTSA engineering analysis, and the receipts reveal a premium pricing experiment running 3X to 4X the base fare of Tesla's Texas markets.Then there is Waymo, whose vehicles bricked across San Francisco on the 4th of July as fireworks, road closures, dense crowds, and connectivity failures overwhelmed the fleet. Vehicles idled until their batteries depleted and had to be towed, one Waymo burned, and San Francisco officials have launched inquiries into the incident.The July 4th stumble potentially exposed a remote assistance bottleneck that makes Waymo's lean human supervision model the critical scaling constraint in burst demand emergencies, threatening the path to one million weekly rides as regulators eye special event requirements and remote operator staffing ratios.Closing out the show, Grayson and Rob discuss Momenta's listing on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange as the market's first physical AI stock, with the retail tranche oversubscribed 414 times and 14 cornerstone investors including BlackRock, Fidelity International, GIC, Mercedes-Benz, and BYD.With its software running in over 900,000 vehicles and licensing revenue growing 42-fold over three years, Momenta's IPO signals that institutional investors are shifting their preference away from speculative capital-intensive deployments towards proven physical AI providers.Episode Chapters00:00 KPMG Sponsor Introduction01:16 Signal 1: Tesla Launches Unsupervised Robotaxi in Miami38:38 Signal 2: Waymo's July 4th Stumble in San Francisco1:11:27 Signal 3: Momenta IPOs on the Hong Kong Stock ExchangeFollow The Road to Autonomy Indices--------About The Road to AutonomyThe Road to Autonomy is the leading applied intelligence platform covering the convergence of automation, autonomy, and the Autonomy Economy.™.Through our podcasts, newsletter, and proprietary applied intelligence, we set the narrative for institutional investors, industry executives, and policymakers navigating the convergence of automation, autonomy, and economic growth.Join institutional investors and industry leaders who read This Week in The Autonomy Economy every Sunday.

At long last, Coffee Golf season is here! Andy and Brendan are just about ready for the final major of 2026 and kick off this Whiparound Friday episode with some more discussion about the jumbled pro golf schedule this week. Andy was especially excited to watch the Scottish Open on Thursday morning and was befuddled that it wasn't on television, further exemplifying why events like the Evian Championship and Scottish Open shouldn't share the same week. Brendan brings up a Padraig Harrington quote from last week at Scioto to kick off a discussion about the continued evolution of the pro game and how today's top players can differentiate themselves from the pack. One of these ways is to spend your time preparing for the Open with a film crew in Canada, which is where Bryson DeChambeau has apparently found himself this week. Andy wants to get to the bottom of who the best player without a major is, but first pops PJ about the continued breakout of Pete Crow-Armstrong for a mid-episode PCA Minute. After things get back to golf, PJ sticks around and quizzes Andy and Brendan on some of the players filling out the bottom of the field at Royal Birkdale next week. Kevin Van Valkenburg then jumps in for a Mercedes Flashback on the 1961 Open Championship at Royal Birkdale before Brendan chats with Matthew Galloway about his belief that the Evian is actually worthy of being a major championship. We will return on Sunday evening to recap the Scottish Open and more as Brendan heads overseas for the last major of the year! Shop at perfectpractice.com and use promo code SGS for 20% off.

En este vídeo nos sumergimos en la época dorada de las grandes berlinas de los años noventa para analizar a fondo tres leyendas que han perdido mucho valor en el mercado, pero absolutamente nada de su pedigrí: el BMW Serie 7, el Jaguar XJ12 y el Mercedes-Benz Clase S. A mediados de los ochenta y durante toda la década de los noventa, el mundo del automóvil vivió una contienda tecnológica fascinante. En las altas esferas de las marcas premium decidieron que para buscar la excelencia absoluta un motor V8 ya no era suficiente. Hacía falta más refinamiento, más suavidad y el equilibrio perfecto que solo otorgan doce cilindros en V. Esta feroz rivalidad nos dejó escaparates tecnológicos impresionantes que hoy, por caprichos de la depreciación, se pueden encontrar por una fracción de su valor original. Pero atención: aunque el precio de compra sea asequible, el mantenimiento de sus complejas mecánicas sigue siendo el de un buque insignia. BMW Serie 7 (E38) 750i: El atleta con traje a medida Lanzado al mercado en 1994, el E38 luce unas proporciones perfectas. Su estampa era tan elegante que fue el coche elegido para el James Bond de Pierce Brosnan en "El mañana nunca muere" y fue el primer automóvil europeo en ofrecer navegación GPS integrada de fábrica. Bajo el capó esconde el motor M73 de 5.4 litros y 326 CV, una mecánica sedosa con soluciones increíbles, como sus bielas de fractura, partidas mediante un impacto hidráulico controlado para lograr un encaje milimétrico alrededor del cigüeñal. En marcha es, con diferencia, la berlina que más invita a ser conducida por el propio dueño gracias a una dirección precisa y un chasis que esconde de forma magistral sus más de dos toneladas. Puntos débiles a revisar: Pérdida de píxeles en las pantallas del habitáculo, fugas de aceite en las juntas de las tapas de balancines, fatiga en el vaso de expansión de plástico del sistema de refrigeración y desgaste en los silentblocks de la suspensión delantera debido al peso del motor. Jaguar XJ12 (X305): El aristócrata de salón inglés En 1994, Jaguar recuperó sus líneas curvas clásicas y los cuatro faros redondos con la generación X300. La exclusiva versión de doce cilindros recibió el código X305. Este V12 de 6 litros y 318 CV es la evolución final de la arquitectura que propulsó al icónico E-Type y que ganó en Le Mans. El habitáculo es una experiencia sensorial pura que huele a cuero Connolly auténtico y madera de nogal, ofreciendo un rodar celestial y una ausencia de vibraciones casi irreal. Puntos débiles a revisar: Posibles focos de corrosión en pasos de rueda y bajos, un vano motor extremadamente congestionado que complica cualquier mantenimiento, degradación de las bobinas de encendido por el calor acumulado y la absoluta necesidad de mantener el sistema de refrigeración al día para no deformar las culatas de aluminio. Mercedes-Benz Clase S (W140) S600: El acorazado indestructible El W140 es un vehículo gigante, imponente y brutalista. Mercedes-Benz retrasó años su desarrollo e invirtió miles de millones de marcos para asegurarse de crear, de forma indiscutible, el mejor automóvil del mundo y humillar a BMW. Su majestuoso motor V12 de 6 litros llegó a declarar hasta 408 CV. Conducir este coche es como viajar en una cápsula de aislamiento absoluto gracias a sus pesadísimos cristales de doble hoja y a sistemas como el cierre asistido neumático de las puertas. Un auténtico búnker diseñado para devorar kilómetros en autopista. Puntos débiles a revisar: El célebre cableado ecológico cuyo aislante se deshace con los años, fallos en el evaporador del climatizador (que exige desmontar todo el salpicadero para cambiarlo), desgaste prematuro de frenos y rótulas por su masa descomunal, y fugas en la laberíntica red de tubos de vacío del sistema neumático. Conclusión Los motores V12 de los años noventa representan la cúspide romántica de la ingeniería, una era irrepetible donde las marcas no escatimaban en gastos para demostrar su supremacía tecnológica. Hoy su adquisición es asequible, pero demandan compradores muy conscientes del coste de su mantenimiento.
Daniel Mahncke and Shawn O'Malley take a deep dive into Auto1 Group (ETR: AG1), the Berlin-based used-car platform. What trips most investors up about Auto1 is that it's two different businesses in one – a capital-light merchant marketplace on one side, a capital-heavy consumer retail bet on the other – and the asset-heavy model that everyone points to as the risk is arguably the same thing that kept Auto1 alive while better-funded competitors went bankrupt. The market tends to fixate on the inventory sitting on Auto1's books and misses that the two halves of the business earn their returns in entirely different ways. Daniel and Shawn walk through how the thin margins on each car turn into something far more attractive once you account for how fast Auto1 cycles its inventory, and why none of it works without the funding structure underneath: a non-recourse ABS architecture that lets Auto1 carry enormous inventory without raising equity to match. That's the piece capital-light rivals skipped, and a large part of why they didn't survive. Daniel and Shawn examine whether Auto1's instant-guaranteed-pricing model is a genuine consumer moat or a balance-sheet liability in disguise, what the economics actually look like in 2026 once you separate the merchant flywheel from the retail build-out, and the more uncomfortable side of the bull case – that net income can read positive while cumulative free cash flow stays deeply negative when new debt is funding operations. They also assess whether Auto1 Group deserves a spot in The Intrinsic Value Portfolio.

Liquid AI co-founder and CEO Ramin Hasani joins Nathan to make a technically grounded case against the idea that scale alone defines the future of AI. Drawing on Liquid's path from MIT CSAIL work on liquid time-constant networks to Automated Foundation Model Design, he explains why efficient, hardware-aware architectures can look very different from frontier-scale attention models. The conversation centers on device-native foundation models for phones, laptops, cars, and wearables, including Liquid's open-weight LFM family and production deployments at Shopify and Mercedes-Benz. The stakes are whether useful intelligence can move beyond the data center into local, privacy-sensitive, low-latency applications—and which model and chip companies will own that on-device intelligence layer.

In ep 180 of “How Do You Say That?!” sponsored by britishvoiceover.co.uk, Paul Cartwright joins Sam and Mark to talk about trusting your senses as a VA to do the work in a script without actively trying to do the work. We explore a commercial script using Paul's theory of pulling back on the crafting and being less voiceovery and less polished to make a real connection with the audience.As an artist, your body is naturally going to add pitch and depth and resonance and highs and lows... so what Paul shows us is comparable to the difference between stage acting and film acting - and it can be a rough uncomfortable ride.We also look at how to create a story arc for a famous tale re-told, but telling it in an authentic way, and our wildcards include Jack's giant, an old lady and a nervous best man delivering a speech.Get involved!

Jack's father disappeared when he was a child, and all Jack could remember of him was the joy of his laughter and the tenderness of his voice:But for Jack and his widowed mother, things were what they were: they were poor, and their farm was failing.But Jack wasn't worried.

Introduction What happens to your health coverage the day you leave a job, go independent, or pick up seasonal work? For more than 90 million Americans who earn outside a traditional employer plan, the answer is usually that it disappears. Felix Ortiz, founder and CEO of Smirk Health, joined host Joshua Hollander to explain why the benefits system built in 1929 for full-time employees no longer fits the way people work, and what it takes to build something that does. The conversation covers portable coverage that moves with the worker, modular plans that start at $19, and an AI layer that does more than answer questions. Guest Bio Felix Ortiz is the founder and CEO of Smirk Health, an AI health benefits infrastructure company in Austin building portable coverage for 1099, part-time, hourly, and seasonal workers, underwritten and insured by Chubb. He is a repeat founder whose earlier companies spanned education technology, talent intelligence, and a banking-and-insurance platform for Americans of modest means. He is also a U.S. Army veteran and a marathoner who has finished five of the seven World Marathon Majors. Much of Smirk traces back to watching insurers decide his younger brother's care during a childhood heart condition, and to his own coverage gap leaving the military. Key Topics The 1929 problem - Group benefits were designed for full-time employees, so the fastest-growing part of the workforce gets priced out or left ineligible. Coverage that follows the worker - When a member changes employers, the plan, the price, and the benefits stay the same instead of ending with the job. Modular plans from $19 - Smirk rebuilt the plan chassis so members can add or remove coverage and see what is covered and what it costs before they buy. From supplemental to fully insured - Smirk took a product category damaged by bad actors, re-engineered it into a fully insured medical plan, and stacked it on an AI layer. An AI layer, not a chatbot - Because the plan is tied into Smirk's infrastructure, the concierge can take a member from a question all the way to a booked appointment with known costs. The AI divide - Ortiz argues a gap is opening between people on free AI models and people on paid ones, and that health is the wrong place to let that gap decide outcomes. Getting a carrier to say yes - How Smirk earned Chubb as an underwriting partner, and what Ortiz tells founders about approaching a large carrier. Notable Quotes "Somebody will have a Toyota, somebody else will have a Mercedes-Benz, but ultimately they still have access to a car. And when it comes to health, they don't. That's the big pain point." "We've gutted the whole thing and re-engineered it to be a fully insured medical plan." "You actually are starting to get a divide in AI infrastructure. That's a topic no one talks about." "Three years out, Smirk will be the infrastructure stack for AI within the health and financial intersection."

Smart Agency Masterclass with Jason Swenk: Podcast for Digital Marketing Agencies
Would you like access to our advanced agency training for FREE? https://www.agencymastery360.com/training Are you trying to sell a service so specialized that closing new clients feels like it can only come from you? What do you think about how AI is reshaping your industry and where that leaves the human at the center of it? Today's featured guest came up through luxury automotive, spent years learning how cultural nuance can derail a campaign that looks perfect on paper, and built a niche precise enough that she can spot from two miles away when someone writing about influencer marketing has never actually run a campaign. In this episode, she'll discuss what makes international influencer work fundamentally different from domestic campaigns and what AI-generated influencers mean for an industry built on human authenticity. Jeanette Okwu is the founder and CEO of Beyond Influence, an influencer marketing agency based in Berlin. Her background spans social media strategy, brand research, and influencer marketing across luxury automotive brands including Jaguar Land Rover and Mercedes-Benz. That global scope became the foundation for her agency's core differentiation: running influencer campaigns that actually account for cultural nuance in each market rather than pushing a headquarters strategy downward and hoping it lands. In this episode, we'll discuss: Building international campaigns understanding regional nuances How to overcome the expert-owner bottleneck problem Can AI influencers replace real ones?

Ready to design faster and smarter? Go to wix.com/studio to get started. Why International Campaigns Break When You Treat Every Market the Same Early in her career, Jeanette managed 24 markets at Jaguar Land Rover, which helped her understand that what works in one country does not translate by default. A TV spot that runs cleanly in Europe cannot air in the Middle East if it shows upper arms or alcohol. A campaign strategy built at headquarters and handed down to regional teams will get implemented, but it will not perform, because every market has cultural specifics that only someone operating inside that market will catch. The agency she built is the direct expression of that knowledge. Beyond Influence does not run German campaigns and call it international work. It builds campaigns from the ground up with an understanding of how audiences in each target market actually consume content and what they expect from the creators they follow. That distinction is hard to replicate without the years of field experience behind it, and it is exactly the kind of institutional knowledge that becomes a real moat when the rest of the market is running generic global strategies. The Sales Bottleneck That Comes With Deep Expertise Jeanette is candid about where she is stuck: sales still runs through her. This is something she has tried to change, but influencer marketing is still a new enough discipline that clients want to hear from someone who demonstrably knows what they are talking about. She frames it as expertise selling and she is probably right that some of it is structural to the space. But she also hears herself in the answer, acknowledging a degree of control that she knows is not fully serving the agency's ability to grow. The necessary shift in cases like this doesn't point toward finding a salesperson who already knows influencer marketing. The real solution will come from finding someone with the right consultative instincts and then giving them the success stories and methodology that let them carry the conversation. Such is the case of Darby, our agency scale specialist, who did not know what an agency was before joining the team. What he had was the ability to listen, qualify, and translate client pain into a path forward. That skill can be trained on the specifics. The instinct behind it cannot. What AI Influencers Actually Mean for the Industry Jeanette knows the question that is currently on every client's mind: will AI-generated influencers replace the real ones? Her answer is more nuanced than the headlines. AI avatars already perform comparably to human creators on certain content types. Brands are building owned avatars that show up on time, never gain weight, never create a scandal, and can post from six locations simultaneously without a travel budget. That part of the market is real and growing. What AI cannot replicate is the reason people follow a creator in the first place. The parasocial relationship that makes influencer marketing work is built on the sense that the person on screen is real and reachable. When a follower knows they will never be able to meet the creator, the connection breaks. That is the line Jeanette draws: AI content can perform well for product exposure, but for the kind of community trust that turns followers into buyers over time, the human at the center still matters. The agencies that understand where that line sits will be the ones helping brands draw it correctly rather than chasing the cost savings of going fully artificial before the audience has stopped caring about the difference.

La última sesión de la semana deja una fotografía de mercado claramente favorable para la renta variable. En Europa, aunque algunos índices como el DAX o el CAC 40 muestran un peor comportamiento, el protagonismo cae sobre el IBEX 35, el EuroStoxx 50 y, especialmente, el sector bancario europeo, que mantienen una tendencia claramente alcista. El selectivo español cotiza en torno a los 19.364 puntos, consolidando las ganancias acumuladas en las últimas semanas. Al otro lado del Atlántico, el escenario continúa siendo positivo. Los principales índices estadounidenses siguen instalados en tendencia alcista y muy cerca de máximos históricos. Destaca especialmente el índice de semiconductores de Filadelfia, que continúa liderando las subidas gracias al impulso de todo el ecosistema vinculado a la inteligencia artificial y la tecnología. Sin embargo, el buen tono no se limita al sector tecnológico, ya que el S&P 500 y el Nasdaq apenas se han alejado de sus máximos pese a las recientes tomas de beneficios. Según Roberto Moro, el mercado ha recuperado prácticamente el mismo escenario que existía antes de que las tensiones geopolíticas en Oriente Medio alteraran temporalmente el sentimiento inversor. Ni los conflictos internacionales ni la volatilidad asociada han sido capaces de deteriorar una tendencia de fondo que sigue siendo constructiva tanto en Europa como en Estados Unidos. En este contexto, Moro plantea una estrategia de pares destinada a reducir la exposición a los movimientos generales del mercado. La propuesta consiste en comprar un ETF vinculado al sector financiero europeo y, simultáneamente, abrir una posición equivalente mediante un ETF inverso sobre el sector automovilístico europeo. Basado en la fortaleza relativa que están mostrando los bancos frente a unas compañías automovilísticas que continúan atravesando un momento complicado. Valores como BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Renault o Stellantis siguen mostrando debilidad técnica y un comportamiento claramente inferior al del sector financiero. La estrategia busca aprovechar que esta divergencia continúe durante las próximas semanas, independientemente de la dirección general que adopten las bolsas, reduciendo parte de la volatilidad a una posición tradicional de mercado.

“Feared in corporate board rooms” is how the St. Louis Business Journal describes attorney Mary Anne Sedey. In Part Two of Heels in the Courtroom, this legendary trial lawyer shares more powerful stories from her career, including high-stakes discrimination cases, multimillion-dollar verdicts, and hard-learned courtroom strategies. From exposing systemic racism at a major hotel to winning big against a Mercedes-Benz dealership, Mary Anne walks through the facts, the fight, and the lessons behind each case. She also delivers candid, practical advice for young attorneys: embrace risk, be persistent, pick your cases wisely, and don't chase perfection at the expense of progress. It's a masterclass in advocacy, resilience, and building a meaningful legal career.
El analista Miguel Méndez estudia la actualidad de los mercados . En medio de la revolución geopolítica por los acuerdos entre Estados Unidos e Irán, además de la cumbre Rambouillet celebrada en Francia este pasado lunes. Los mercados han tenido un giro drástico; las tecnologías de semiconductores, el sector de seguros y los sectores del aeroespacial y defensa han tenido una subida drástica en sus valores tras el acuerdo, parece que se equilibra la balanza y que vuelve haber dinero para estos valores. Sin embargo, Méndez, advierte “Hay que ser cautelosos” “Estacionalmente estamos en la peor quincena del mes de junio, históricamente es la peor del año”. Por otro lado, la jornada está enmarcada por la primera reunión de Kevin Warsh, presidente de la Reserva Federal, en este contexto cabe preguntarse ¿Abrirá la ventana de bajada de tipos como anunció Donald Trump, cuando los datos invitan a lo contrario? Miguel Mendez asegura “Si bajan la ventana de tipos el mercado podría explotar al alza, pero hay que ser cautelosos y mantener la euforia contenida”. Durante la jornada se han comentado varios valores por los que el público de este medio consultaban, algunos de ellos pertenecen al sector del motor, que se está viendo afectado por las nuevas políticas impuestas por la Unión Europea lo que deriva en un profundo deterioro del sector. Así lo refleja el lanzamiento por parte de BMW del profit warning, a su vez Mercedes Benz también se ve arrastrada por el comportamiento de BMW llegando a caer hasta un 3.34%. “La predisposición del consumidor hace que se incline por un vehículo más barato y que ofrece beneficios similares, por lo tanto el coche chino triunfa en Europa afectando a compañías como estas” asegura Méndez. El foco también ha estado bajo el sector energético con la compañía Uranium Energy, según el analista, es un sector que “ha perdido mucho timing” insistiendo en que los flujos cambian muy rápido reflejando que no es un año de inversión estructural, la empresa estudiada tiene unos máximos descendentes con pérdida de soportes importantes lo que , según explica, no pinta el mejor panorama para comprar. En la misma línea también fue objeto de análisis EOS Energy Enterprises, tiene un rebote desde entornos de 6 lo que el analista interpreta como una buena señal “Hay retórica para pensar que la energía lo va hacer muy bien“ así mismo para dar una visión más amplia, plantea la comparativa con otras compañías del sector que se considera tienen una línea positiva, tales como Bloom Energy, Fuel Cell Energy, Plug Power y Schneider Electric del mercado francés que está cerca de romper máximos. “Mi sensación es que la próxima explosión bursátil puede venir por el sector eléctrico” , concluye Méndez.

I greet you in Jesus' precious name! It is Friday morning, the 12th of June, 2026, and this is your friend, Angus Buchan, with a thought for today. We start in the Book of Numbers 11:14: ”I am not able to bear all these people alone, because the burden is too heavy for me.” Then we go to the New Testament to 2 Corinthians 12:9: ”And He said to me,“My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness.” So when we are weak then we are strong. I think you have heard me say this many times before, God gives us strength for the strain. Are you going through a very tough time at the moment? Are you saying to yourself: ”There's no way out for me”; “I am done, I can't do it anymore, I'm tired, I'm weary”; ”I have had a disaster in my business”; ”My marriage is not working well”; “My children are sick”; “There is no hope for me.”? Oh yes, there is! Turn your eyes upon Jesus, Look full in His wonderful face And the things of the earth will grow strangely dim In the light of His glory and grace.I remember like yesterday - it was many, many years ago, I left my young wife and my young children, and I took a huge 20-ton Mercedes-Benz truck and trailer, with a team of men, and we went up into Zambia to preach the Gospel of Jesus Christ. I'll never forget it. We arrived at the banks of the mighty Zambezi River. In those days, there was no bridge over the Zambezi as there is today. You had to wait with a line of trucks ahead of you for a pontoon to take you across this huge river. I remember sitting on the banks of that river and feeling very homesick, and looking across the river to Zambia and thinking about the trip I had organised to take, from the bottom of Zambia right through to the very top, with my dear friend, Peter Motale, who was waiting for me on the other side. He was my chief interpreter and one of my spiritual sons, and I remember sitting there saying, ”Lord, this is too much. The burden is too heavy, the responsibility.” For six weeks, we will be preaching the Gospel, day and night, looking for diesel to fill that truck to keep it going, meeting up with different groups of people in rural areas where we had not been before, and yet the Lord said, ”I will give you strength for the strain. My grace is sufficient for you.”What a promise from God! Today, cast your cares upon Him and let Him direct your paths, and you will get through, and you will accomplish it, and you will give Him all the glory.Jesus bless you and have a wonderful day. Goodbye.

Back from China, Tu Le and Lei Xing unpack one of the most consequential shifts happening in the global automotive industry: the technology relationship between China and Western automakers has completely flipped. What began decades ago as Western companies bringing technology into China has become something very different. Today, automakers including Volkswagen, Stellantis, Mercedes-Benz, Honda, Nissan and others are increasingly relying on Chinese batteries, software, ADAS systems, LiDAR suppliers, and EV platforms to remain competitive.In this episode, Tu and Lei discuss:Why Ford, GM, Volkswagen and Stellantis increasingly need Chinese technologyThe growing influence of XPeng, BYD, CATL, Huawei, Momenta, Hesai and Horizon RoboticsWaymo's rapid expansion and why autonomous driving is becoming impossible to ignoreThe reality of FSD versus China's rapidly improving intelligent driving systemsThe implications of the Trump-Xi summit for the automotive sectorCanada's evolving strategy toward Chinese EV importsWhat the Beijing Auto Show revealed about the future of the industryWhy the next battle is no longer about EVs — it's about software, AI and autonomyThe conversation also explores whether legacy automakers risk becoming hardware manufacturers while Chinese companies increasingly control the technology stack powering the future of mobility. ⸻

Hi Everyone, Carl Gould here, your #70secondCEO, just over a minute of investment per day for a lifetime of results. We're talking about increasing your fees. Now wouldn't that be nice? Just take your prices and charge more? And you'll just make more money. Isn't that great? Well, you know what, it's actually necessary. We have been talking about not just being another penguin, about standing above, about being an expert, about differentiating yourself. Well guess what? People judge your quality based on your fees. Think about it, I asked you the question, what's a better watch? A Timex or a Rolex? And some of you are like, "Timex, do they even make them anymore?" Like pretending you don't know. And then when I said, How about a Rolex? You all knew what that cost, "Oh, $5000, $5000, well, it depends on which one you get. How much are we blinging this one out Carl?" Now you can spend 15 or above. You all knew what the Rolex cost. But none of you could figure out what the Timex would cost. Right, because we are sold on brands that are higher in price. Apple, Mercedes-Benz, Jaguar, Tiffany's, you know, Rolex, and other high-end brands. What makes them high end? How do you know they're as good as they claim? The reality is you don't! The way that you judge quality is based on its price. Like and follow this podcast so you can learn more. My name is Carl Gould and this has been your #70secondCEO.

Executive VP Stella Li has directed engineers to keep European variants under 4.3 metres, with separate B- and C-segment standards, as BYD stops adapting China-market models and instead builds vehicles tailored to dense European cities.MAZDA DELAYS DEDICATED EV TO 2029Mazda has pushed back its first dedicated EV platform by two years to 2029 and cut EV investment by nearly half, shifting resources toward hybrids and China-sourced electrified products. Before 2029, Mazda will sell China-built EVs — effectively rebadged Changan Automobile models — in Europe, Australia, and Southeast Asia.AUTOMAKERS SEEK NEW EU CO2 CONCESSIONSVolkswagen Group, BMW, and Mercedes-Benz met EU officials in Brussels on 13 May to press for further flexibility on the bloc's 2035 emissions targets, despite having already won concessions just months ago. Germany's VDA lobby warned that the country's auto sector could shed up to 125,000 additional jobs by 2035 without meaningful improvement in competitiveness.OPEL PREVIEWS 207 KW CORSA GSEOpel has revealed the all-electric Corsa GSE, which it claims will be the fastest-accelerating production Opel ever built, with a 0–100 km/h time of 5.5 seconds from a front-mounted 207 kW permanent magnet motor. The car rides on Stellantis' e-CMP platform and features a Torsen limited-slip differential, Alcon four-piston brakes, lowered sports suspension, and uprated battery thermal management.AUSTRALIA DELAYS FEDERAL EV ROAD CHARGEAustralia's federal government has paused its EV road user charge, opting to first develop a coordinated policy with state and territory governments following the High Court's 2023 ruling that struck down Victoria's version. The budget also restructures EV fringe benefits tax support, narrowing the full FBT exemption from April 2027 to EVs priced at A$75,000 or below on novated leases, before shifting to a 25% FBT reduction for all EVs under the luxury car tax threshold from April 2029.GERMAN OPERATORS BACK ELECTRIC TRUCKSA German study by the Institute for Applied Ecology found that 93% of transport companies already running electric trucks are satisfied or very satisfied, citing high reliability, driving comfort, and low operating costs. The same share expect electric trucks to become the standard fleet vehicle by 2030, though operators flagged high upfront costs and depot grid connection complexity as the main barriers.AI CHARGING METHOD CUTS EV BATTERY WEARResearchers at Chalmers University of Technology have developed an AI-driven fast-charging method using reinforcement learning that extends EV battery life by 23% without adding to charge times. The system adapts charging current to each battery's state of health and electrochemistry in real time, reducing internal wear and the risk of lithium plating compared to current one-size-fits-all charging protocols.FIRST BUS TESTS DEPOTS AS GRID ASSETSFirst Bus has launched a trial using its electric bus depot infrastructure to support the National Grid, intelligently scheduling charging to absorb surplus Scottish wind power that would otherwise be curtailed. The UK's largest electric bus operator, with over 1,400 zero-emission vehicles, argues the scheme can cut wasted renewable energy, support grid stability, and improve the economics of fleet electrification.LUCID PUTS UK LAUNCH BACK TO 2028Lucid has delayed its UK market entry to early 2028 — the third such postponement — with European President Lawrence Hamilton saying the firm must sequence its expansion carefully after entering seven or eight more continental European markets in 2026 first. Lucid will skip bringing the current Air and Gravity models to the UK, instead launching only on its new mid-size 800-volt platform with the Cosmos coupé-crossover and Earth SUV variants, built on the Atlas drive unit that cuts manufacturing costs by 37%.UK E-VAN RULES EASE FROM 2026From June 2026, the UK government will remove regulatory barriers for electric vans weighing between 3.5 and 4.25 tonnes, aligning them with equivalent diesel and petrol vehicles under the Class 7 MOT framework with a first MOT due after three years rather than one. Driver hours rules will also change, removing mandatory tachograph use and base-distance restrictions, with operators set to save up to 60% on MOT costs under the new regime.UK USED EV SALES HIT Q1 RECORDUK used EV sales hit a record 86,943 units in Q1 2026, up 32% year on year, with around one in 23 used car buyers choosing an EV compared to one in 30 in the same period last year. The surge is being driven by growing used EV supply from strong prior new car sales, lower prices, and improving buyer confidence in battery longevity.
Imprisoned in the California Institution for Women in Chino, California, since 2024 for the murder of two young brothers killed in a hit-and-run, Rebecca Grossman is adjusting to a very different lifestyle than the one she was used to. The one-time publisher of a luxury lifestyle magazine and heir to a multimillion-dollar plastic surgery fortune hasn't taken her dramatic fall from grace lying down. Since being sentenced to 15 years to life for two counts of second-degree murder, Rebecca Grossman has tapped every resource available to her to avoid consequences, both criminal and financial. Her refusal to accept responsibility has weighed heavily on the family of the two victims, 11-year-old Mark and 8-year-old Jacob Iskander. On September 29, 2020 Rebecca was behind the wheel of a super-charged Mercedes-Benz that struck the boys in a crosswalk as their mother and younger sibling looked on in horror—having just barely survived themselves. An investigation into the crash revealed Rebecca was under the influence of alcohol and Valium, and perhaps more damningly, was engaged in a high-speed road race with her lover, former Major League pitcher Scott Erickson. After five years of conjecture and speculation, a jury will have the opportunity to decide once and for all on Erickson's level of culpability, and whether or not the Iskanders are owed a multi-million dollar sum from the Grossman's for the death of their two boys.
