Welcome to Wrestling Tonight, your weekly dive into the biggest stories across the wrestling world! This week, we recap WWE Backlash 2025, where Jeff Cobb made a surprise debut to assist Jacob Fatu in retaining the U.S. Title, Gunther overwhelmed Pat McAfee, and Lyra Valkyria edged out Becky Lynch in a standout Women's Intercontinental Title match. While the show had its moments, repeated interference and uneven pacing left some fans split. We also spotlight Maple Leaf Pro Wrestling's Northern Rising event from Toronto—an impressive showcase that saw Josh Alexander win the Canadian Championship and Gisele Shaw become the inaugural MLP Canadian Women's Champion. With Mauro Ranallo and Don Callis on commentary, MLP made a strong statement about its place on the North American scene. Over in California, NJPW Resurgence delivered a loaded card. AZM stunned Mercedes Moné and Mina Shirakawa to win the STRONG Women's Championship, while the IWGP World Title match between Hirooki Goto and Zack Sabre Jr. ended in a controversial double pin. United Empire claimed STRONG tag gold, and the generational BULLET CLUB rift deepened. Quick hitters include WWE's Night of Champions announcement for Saudi Arabia, AEW confirming Dynamite 300 for July 2 in Ontario, California, and the launch of AEW's “Grand Slam Mexico” week. Plus: Becky Lynch talks acting, MJF, and her current goals, while Shelton Benjamin publicly responds to Hulk Hogan's latest name flub.

Christian Alshon was the center of attention again as new serve rules were challenged throughout the weekend.

Will Howells was on court with Anna Leigh Waters and Hayden Patriquin when chaos erupted. He provides his firsthand account of the events and shares why the unique coed format of MLP creates a dynamic not typically seen in sports.

In this episode we answer emails from Marco Esquandolas and Multi-Family Investor.  We discuss a long-term diversified Roth portfolio for a 13-year old, modelling Delaware Statutory Trusts in a portfolio, transitioning out of an all S&P 500 allocation in a taxable account, PFIX, Sabine Royalty Trust and individual stocks in retirement portfolios, and M1 Finance.Note/Correction:  Sabine is actually NOT structured like an MLP but as a true trust and therefore issues 1099s, not K-1s like most companies in the oil & gas royalty space.Links:Shannon's Demon Article:  Unexpected Returns: Shannon's Demon & the Rebalancing Bonus – Portfolio ChartsIDMO vs EFG (and other international growth funds) Analysis:  testfol.io/analysis?s=4PEQ1YvTbAMBreathless Unedited AI-Bot Summary:Dive into the world of strategic portfolio building with this illuminating episode where Frank tackles questions from two distinct investors at opposite ends of the age spectrum. A father shares his 13-year-old son's Shannon's Demon-inspired portfolio that's being built for an ultra-long 50+ year time horizon, featuring a balanced approach to growth and value across both domestic and international markets. Frank offers targeted advice on fund selection while celebrating this young investor's precocious financial journey.The conversation shifts dramatically when an engineer earning $250,000-300,000 annually shares his detailed retirement strategy with hopes of financial independence before 50. With $3.4 million spread across multiple investment vehicles including real estate, this listener puzzles over how to transition to a risk parity portfolio without triggering a substantial tax bill. Frank methodically dissects several aspects of this complex situation, questioning the wisdom of backdoor Roth conversions during peak earning years and clarifying misconceptions about Delaware Statutory Trusts as bond substitutes.What makes this episode particularly valuable is Frank's blend of technical advice and practical wisdom. He cuts through complex tax and investment strategies to offer straightforward solutions - identifying tax-loss harvesting opportunities, rethinking account structures, and focusing on expenses rather than arbitrary portfolio targets. The discussion extends to specialized investments like royalty trusts and interest rate hedges, providing listeners with a masterclass in portfolio construction that balances theoretical ideals with real-world constraints.Whether you're managing investments for the next generation or planning your own early retirement, this episode delivers actionable insights on building resilient, tax-efficient portfolios tailored to your unique circumstances. The principles shared apply across market conditions and investment goals, making this essential listening for any DIY investor seeking to optimize their financial future.Support the show

Gartman recaps his offseason moves and the reunion of some of his championship players. Finally, Zane did a deep dive on the MLP rulebook and discovered that new serve rules are active in Orlando.

Welcome to Wrestling Tonight, where we bring clarity, context, and deeper perspective to the stories shaping the wrestling world. In Episode 117, we lead with WWE's most consequential announcement to date: Roman Reigns, Seth Rollins, and CM Punk will headline WrestleMania 41 in a long-awaited Triple Threat. It's a collision of former allies, bitter rivals, and legacy-defining stakes. We trace the path that brought them here — from Shield history to Royal Rumble chaos — and what this match means in a post-Bloodline WWE. We then turn to John Cena's blistering return promo in Brussels, where he seemingly severed ties with the fans who once defined his career. His scathing words — delivered with cutting intensity — reframed his past, questioned the crowd's loyalty, and set up a collision with Cody Rhodes that's as much about identity as it is about pride. Over in NJPW, David Finlay has claimed the 2025 New Japan Cup, setting up a date with destiny at Sakura Genesis. We break down his tournament run, his transformation into Bullet Club's modern leader, and what this moment means for NJPW's long-term direction. We also take a heartfelt detour to reflect on the retirement of ROH original Homicide, who wrestled his final match on his birthday in Brooklyn after revealing a serious medical diagnosis. It's the end of an era — and we celebrate the grit, fire, and legacy of a true indie legend. But that's not all — this episode is packed with compelling side stories and emerging threads from across the wrestling spectrum: Maple Leaf Pro Wrestling's rise and plans to crown its first-ever champions in Toronto. Updates on WWE's new ID Championship Tournament, launching during WrestleMania Week at GCW and FSW. Lex Luger's WWE Hall of Fame induction and his desire to be inducted by Sting — a request that could challenge the AEW/WWE divide. The growing chaos in NXT with the rise of the new faction Darkstate, and what it means for the brand's creative direction. The suspension of Alberto El Patron in Tijuana, and the fallout from his post-match incident. Jeff Jarrett's surprise return to AAA, promising to defend the vacated tag titles with a mystery partner at Rey de Reyes. Confirmations for GCW's Bloodsport XIII, including appearances from Pete Dunne, Karrion Kross, and Natalya during WrestleMania week. Konosuke Takeshita's House of Glory debut, adding more crossover intrigue to AEW's indie footprint. And early movement in the 2025 Owen Hart Cup, with Hangman Page and Will Ospreay the first entrants revealed.

Try a walking desk while studying ML or working on your projects! 3Blue1Brown videos Background & Motivation: RNN Limitations: Sequential processing prevents full parallelization—even with attention tweaks—making them inefficient on modern hardware. Breakthrough: “Attention Is All You Need” replaced recurrence with self-attention, unlocking massive parallelism and scalability. Core Architecture: Layer Stack: Consists of alternating self-attention and feed-forward (MLP) layers, each wrapped in residual connections and layer normalization. Positional Encodings: Since self-attention is permutation invariant, add sinusoidal or learned positional embeddings to inject sequence order. Self-Attention Mechanism: Q, K, V Explained: Query (Q): The representation of the token seeking contextual info. Key (K): The representation of tokens being compared against. Value (V): The information to be aggregated based on the attention scores. Multi-Head Attention: Splits Q, K, V into multiple “heads” to capture diverse relationships and nuances across different subspaces. Dot-Product & Scaling: Computes similarity between Q and K (scaled to avoid large gradients), then applies softmax to weigh V accordingly. Masking: Causal Masking: In autoregressive models, prevents a token from “seeing” future tokens, ensuring proper generation. Padding Masks: Ignore padded (non-informative) parts of sequences to maintain meaningful attention distributions. Feed-Forward Networks (MLPs): Transformation & Storage: Post-attention MLPs apply non-linear transformations; many argue they're where the “facts” or learned knowledge really get stored. Depth & Expressivity: Their layered nature deepens the model's capacity to represent complex patterns. Residual Connections & Normalization: Residual Links: Crucial for gradient flow in deep architectures, preventing vanishing/exploding gradients. Layer Normalization: Stabilizes training by normalizing across features, enhancing convergence. Scalability & Efficiency Considerations: Parallelization Advantage: Entire architecture is designed to exploit modern parallel hardware, a huge win over RNNs. Complexity Trade-offs: Self-attention's quadratic complexity with sequence length remains a challenge; spurred innovations like sparse or linearized attention. Training Paradigms & Emergent Properties: Pretraining & Fine-Tuning: Massive self-supervised pretraining on diverse data, followed by task-specific fine-tuning, is the norm. Emergent Behavior: With scale comes abilities like in-context learning and few-shot adaptation, aspects that are still being unpacked. Interpretability & Knowledge Distribution: Distributed Representation: “Facts” aren't stored in a single layer but are embedded throughout both attention heads and MLP layers. Debate on Attention: While some see attention weights as interpretable, a growing view is that real “knowledge” is diffused across the network's parameters.

Host Tats welcomes pro pickleball player Jay Devilliers, who shares his journey from high-level tennis to discovering pickleball in 2019 while working at Chicken N Pickle. He initially learned through trial and error in tournaments, studying top players like Matt Wright, Ben Johns, and Simone Jardim to develop his game. Jay discusses how paddle technology has changed playstyles, the rise of power and quick hands, and his shift from a patient, dink-heavy approach to a more aggressive, fast-paced game. He breaks down drive-and-crash tactics, evolving strategies, and the importance of adaptability and partner chemistry in doubles. He also shares insights on training, injury prevention, and mindset, emphasizing staying positive, communication in partnerships, and continuously evolving to stay competitive. Jay expresses his love for team events like MLP, though he believes balancing individual and team formats will shape the sport's future. He wraps up with advice for recreational and competitive players—stay adaptable, focus on quick hands, and bring positive energy to every game.
