Podcasts about moments

Geopolitical tensions flared over the weekend as military strikes involving the U.S., Israel, and Iran sent shockwaves through global headlines. But how did markets actually respond? We break down the reaction across energy prices, defense stocks, travel shares, and inflation expectations — and what investors should watch in the weeks ahead.Moments like these often raise the same question: what does this mean for my portfolio? Looking at historical data from past geopolitical crises, we discuss how the S&P 500 has typically behaved during periods of uncertainty, why short-term volatility can look very different from long-term outcomes, and how investors can stay grounded by focusing on discipline rather than prediction.Then we turn to the growing conversation around artificial intelligence and jobs. After Block announced significant layoffs with CEO Jack Dorsey pointing to AI as a key driver, we explore whether AI is truly replacing that much human capital — or if other business realities like a weak crypto market, past hiring trends, and stock performance may also be influencing the decision.Finally, Managing Associate Melanie Wells joins the show to discuss what earning the Certified Divorce Financial Analyst® designation adds to financial planning during divorce. Using a real-world style case study, we examine how retirement accounts, pensions, stock options, real estate, and even debt are evaluated — and why in divorce planning, “fair” doesn't always mean “equal.”Join hosts Nick Antonucci, CVA, CEPA, Director of Research, and Managing Associates K.C. Smith, CFP®, CEPA, and D.J. Barker, CWS®, and Kelly-Lynne Scalice, a seasoned communicator and host, on Henssler Money Talks as they explore key financial strategies to help investors navigate market uncertainty. Henssler Money Talks — March 7, 2026  |  Season 40, Episode 10Timestamps and Chapters8:14 War Headlines and Wall Street19:08: Discipline Over Drama24:20: Separating Signal from Story 33:59: The Hidden Financial Decisions in DivorceFollow Henssler:  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/HensslerFinancial/ YouTube:  https://www.youtube.com/c/HensslerFinancial LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/henssler-financial/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/hensslerfinancial/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@hensslerfinancial?lang=en X: https://www.x.com/hensslergroup “Henssler Money Talks” is brought to you by Henssler Financial.

Rob Reacts to Paradise Season 2 Ep 4 Paradise Season 2, Episode 4 sends Xavier on a dramatic journey that leaves both the characters and listeners with plenty to unpack. Host Rob Cesternino teams up with Chappell to break down the latest events, including family turmoil, life-and-death decisions, and haunting glimpses of what lies ahead. The emotional stakes are raised as Xavier navigates a world where trust is scarce, and every choice could mean survival or heartbreak. Rob and Chappell dive in as Xavier searches for his missing wife, Terry, only to find himself caring for a newborn and wrestling with tough questions about family loyalty and responsibility. The episode sprawls out across both the bunker and the battered landscape outside, with the hosts tracing Xavier and Annie's journey and the larger consequences of the world's devastation. The flashbacks and time jumps serve up twists, as both discuss how events tie together, from a mixed family forming in Paradise, to President Bradford trying to rally hope inside the bunker, and Annie's tragic fate after childbirth. Explore these highlights: Xavier and Annie's uneasy partnership, sparked by a medical emergency and the need to survive, and their tense negotiations over travel plans. The emotional impact of Annie’s death, with Rob relating the childbirth scenes to real-life anxiety and Chappell connecting medical details to TV drama. President Bradford's optimistic push to name the bunker baby “Hope” while exploring the value of symbols for morale. Speculation about Sinatra's evolving role and mysterious motives, including hints at scientific innovation and possible space travel or time manipulation. Moments of humor and skepticism, as Chappell questions “work husband” dynamics and the trustworthiness of several key characters. Paradise takes a sharp turn as Xavier inherits a new “holy charge”—caring for Annie's child and hunting for answers about Terry's disappearance. Is trust really possible in a fractured world, or are the survivors destined to repeat old mistakes as they move forward?

Her father never believed in ghosts. He didn't believe in God either. For him, the world was practical, mechanical, explainable.Then he took a night security job inside a centuries-old town hall in England.During one late shift, a metal washer struck him on the head from an empty staircase. Moments later, a section of wall glowed with a deep orange-red light. Then the elevator chimed and opened — though no one else was inside the locked building. He finished the shift from the safety of his patrol car.Months later, construction crews working inside the same building captured something in a photograph — a semi-transparent figure standing where no one had been.He still doesn't claim to believe. But he's never been able to explain what happened in that building after dark.#RealGhostStories #HauntedBuilding #SecurityGuardStory #ParanormalEncounter #GhostPhoto #ElevatorMystery #HauntedTownHall #NightShift #UnexplainedPhenomena #TrueParanormal Love real ghost stories?

This week, Carmen and Andrea dig into a chaotic stretch of news: U.S. military action in Iran and Ecuador, the limits of the 25th Amendment, and the growing sense that the country is being run by people wildly unprepared for the power they hold. They talk honestly about the rage, exhaustion, and moral whiplash so many people are feeling as cruelty becomes policy - from border‑camp conditions to the normalization of violence and dehumanization. Andrea opens up about the emotional toll, and Carmen grounds the conversation in clarity, accountability, and the reminder that wanting justice is not the same as abandoning your own ethics.The two also break down the Texas primary - James Talarico's win, Jasmine Crockett's grace, and the voter‑suppression tactics that signal what's ahead for November. It's raw, unfiltered, and deeply human. A conversation about power, consequences, and what it means to stay awake in a moment designed to wear people down.Thank you for stopping by.

This episode of Testing Peers is published in recognition of International Women's Day (8 March).International Women's Day is a global moment to recognise the social, economic, cultural, and political achievements of women, while also highlighting the continued work needed to achieve gender equality. It is also a call to action to accelerate progress and support women's advancement around the world.You can learn more about the campaign and its initiatives athttps://www.internationalwomensday.com/Episode OverviewTo mark International Women's Day, this episode brings together Linda van de Vooren, Rachel Kibler, Tara Walton, and Christine Pinto for a conversation about their experiences working in software testing and technology.The discussion ranges from workplace dynamics and technical credibility to confidence, identity, and the importance of supportive communities in tech. Drawing on experiences across different countries, organisations, and career stages, the panel reflect on the challenges and opportunities of working in the industry today. International Women's DayEpisode HighlightsTheme songs for the momentThe episode begins with a bit of Testing Peers banter as the hosts share the song that best represents their current stage of life. From Eye of the Tiger to Crowded Table and even a song from Frozen 2, the choices reflect everything from startup survival mode to building strong personal support networks.Being a woman in techThe panel discuss how experiences can vary depending on company culture, geography, and team dynamics. Several hosts reflect on the need to prove technical credibility, particularly in environments where testing already sits in tension with development.Finding alliesSupport within teams can make a real difference. The group share how allies often emerge through one-to-one conversations and how a single supportive voice in a meeting can change how concerns about quality or risk are received.Competition and the “crab bucket” effectThe conversation touches on the crab bucket effect: situations where people unintentionally hold each other back in competitive or unhealthy environments. The group reflect on how workplace pressure and culture can contribute to this dynamic.Glue work and invisible labourThe panel discuss glue work, the essential tasks that keep teams functioning but often go unnoticed. From meeting notes to coordination, these responsibilities can disproportionately fall to certain people unless teams actively share them.Identity and personal expressionFrom purple hair and tiaras to red suits and owl dungarees, the hosts reflect on how personal expression can influence confidence and help people show up authentically at work.Safety and confidenceThe discussion acknowledges that confidence and self-expression depend on feeling safe at work. Moments of inappropriate behaviour or boundary crossing can quickly undermine that safety and require time and support to rebuild.Continuing the conversation at Agile Testing DaysTowards the end of the discussion, Rachel Kibler highlights an opportunity to continue conversations like these at Agile Testing Days.[Placeholder: add Rachel's exact forum/session name and wording here once confirmed.]The value of communityThe episode closes by reflecting on the strength of the testing community and spaces like Testing Peers, where people can share experiences, offer support, and remind each other they are not alone.This episode exploresWomen's experiences in software testing and technologyBuilding allies and support within teamsSupport the show

On New Year's Eve 2021, Morgan Metzer woke up inside her Canton, Georgia home to a masked intruder standing in her doorway. The man assaulted her, zip tied her, and dragged her outside into the freezing cold before fleeing.Moments later, her ex husband Rodney Metzer arrived and called 911, presenting himself as the man who had come to help.Investigators quickly began questioning how he appeared at the scene at exactly the right moment. As detectives examined phone records, surveillance footage, and online activity, prosecutors say a disturbing plan emerged. Rodney had allegedly faked a terminal cancer diagnosis in an attempt to win Morgan back after their divorce. When that failed, investigators say he researched how to disguise his voice, restrain someone, and secretly accessed her home security system before the attack.Faced with mounting evidence, Rodney Metzer pleaded guilty to charges related to the home invasion and assault. He was sentenced to 70 years, including 25 years in prison followed by decades of probation.What began as a terrifying break in ultimately revealed a calculated attempt to manipulate and control the situation, with Rodney positioning himself as the hero of a crime he allegedly planned himself.

Note: this episode involves audio post-processing and buffering video due to intermittent technical issues with our connection.In this episode, we delve into the extraordinary experiences of Rose from Western Pennsylvania, a lifelong woods-walker, artist, and energy worker who has spent years exploring the ridges, creek beds, and forest trails near her home. What began as an uneasy feeling in a familiar hiking area slowly unfolded into something much deeper.Rose shares how a massive barefoot track in the snow first caught her attention, followed by unexplained whoops echoing through the trees and strange tree formations that didn't sit right with her. As the months passed, activity intensified. Along a quiet creek during hunting season, she observed a pale face watching from the hillside. Moments later, a branch came flying in her direction. Weeks after that, heavy footsteps shook the ground behind her on a remote switchback trail.Rose describes repeated vocal exchanges, including a spontaneous “whale song” call that received an immediate response from the forest. She recounts growls from the ridge line, loud wood impacts, objects moved in areas she frequented, and ongoing interactions that continued into 2025. With a deep respect for the land and a sensitivity to subtle changes in her environment, Rose reflects on how these experiences reshaped the way she understands the beings she believes share that territory.Her story offers an intimate look at sustained, location-specific activity in Western Pennsylvania and explores the awareness, intelligence, and presence of these “people” in the woods.Join us as we navigate Rose's multi-year journey and the unfolding mystery of Sasquatch in Western Pennsylvania.

Another Marvel Monday is here! Let's kick off the week with Iron Man 3. ABOUT IRON MAN 3 When Tony Stark's world is torn apart by a formidable terrorist called the Mandarin, he starts an odyssey of rebuilding and retribution. AIR DATE & NETWORK FOR IRON MAN 3 May 3, 2013 | Theatrical Release CAST & CREW OF IRON MAN 3 Robert Downey Jr. as Tony Stark/Iron Man Guy Pearce as Aldrich Killian Gwyneth Paltrow as Pepper Potts Don Cheadle as Colonel James Rhodes/War Machine Rebecca Hall as Maya Hansen Jon Favreau as Happy Hogan Ben Kingsley as Trevor Slattery BRAN'S MOVIE SYNOPSIS We're back in 1999 in Switzerland on New Year's Eve. Tony Stark is hanging out with scientist Maya Hansen, who's showing him some new experimental regenerative tech called Extremis. It's supposed to heal the human body — but there's a big problem with it: sometimes it explodes. Also at the party, Tony gets approached by Aldrich Killian, who awkwardly pitches him on joining his company, Advanced Idea Mechanics (AIM). Tony blows him off in the most Tony way possible — tells him to meet on the roof later and then never shows up because he's too busy with Maya. Cut to the present day, and Tony is not doing great. Ever since the alien invasion in New York, he's been having nonstop panic attacks. He barely sleeps, he keeps building new Iron Man suits, and it's putting serious strain on his relationship with Pepper — especially when he accidentally summons a suit in his sleep and it crashes down on top of her. One day Killian shows up to Stark Industries to pitch Pepper on AIM's tech. She's impressed but can tell it's clearly headed toward becoming a weapon, so she turns him down. Happy overhears the meeting and gets bad vibes from Killian and his associate, Eric Savin, so he starts following them. Happy tails Savin into a crowded market and watches him hand off a briefcase to a military veteran. Inside are these weird glowing capsules that look like drugs or something. Happy confronts the guy, things get physical, and that's when he realizes Savin is basically a human weapon. It ends horribly — there's a massive explosion, and Happy is left critically injured in the hospital. A terrorist known as the Mandarin takes credit for the blast, along with several others around the country. Furious about what happened to Happy, Tony goes on live TV, calls out the Mandarin, and — in a truly terrible decision — gives him his home address. Yeah. That backfires immediately. Before the attack, Maya Hansen shows up trying to warn Tony about something, but she doesn't get the chance. Moments later, helicopters roll in and absolutely level Tony's Malibu mansion. Pepper barely survives, and Tony escapes in a new prototype suit that runs out of power mid-flight and crash-lands in rural Tennessee. The world assumes Iron Man is dead. Stranded with a half-working suit, Tony meets a smart kid named Harley who helps him regroup. Together they investigate the site of a nearby Mandarin explosion, and Tony starts noticing a pattern: all the victims are military veterans connected to AIM. After hacking into AIM's systems, Tony learns the truth — the "bombings" aren't terrorist attacks at all. They're caused by failed Extremis experiments. Some people's bodies reject it and literally blow up, and Killian has been covering it up by framing the "Mandarin". Savin tracks Tony down and attacks him, giving him his first real look at how powerful Extremis is. Following the trail to Miami, Tony storms the Mandarin's hideout using homemade weapons since he still doesn't have a working suit — only to discover the Mandarin isn't a mastermind terrorist at all. He's just a clueless British actor named Trevor who was hired to play the role, created by Killian to have someone to blame. Killian then kidnaps Pepper and injects her with Extremis, planning to use her as leverage to force Tony to help perfect the tech. When Maya changes her mind and tries to stop him, Killian kills her real bad. Killian also lures Rhodey — now rebranded as the Iron Patriot — into a trap and steals his armor. Using it, Killian kidnaps the President right off Air Force One in a staged "Mandarin" attack. Tony manages to remotely save some passengers, but the President is taken. The plan? Kill the President live on TV and install the Vice President — who Killian has been secretly giving Extremis to — as a puppet leader. With Tony & Rhodey teaming up, Rhodes rescues the President while Tony goes after Pepper. Tony calls in all of his Iron Man suits that he has been creating while not sleeping and they swarm the platform in an all-out battle. Pepper survives the Extremis procedure and turns out to be incredibly powerful, but during the fight she falls into the flames below, and Tony thinks she's dead. Tony confronts Killian and traps him in a suit that self-destructs — but it still doesn't finish him off. And since the explosion didn't kill Killian, maybe the explosion didn't kill Pepper. That's right - Pepper's alive. Extremis healed her and gave her super strength, and she uses it to finally kill Killian for good. After the fight, Tony has JARVIS destroy all of his Iron Man suits, Pepper's Extremis is stabilized, and Tony finally has the shrapnel removed from his chest. But he'll always be….IRON Man 3.

Are you too busy to be healthy? Trule healthy in your body — mentally, emotionally, and spiritually healthy? In this episode, Dr. Emily invites you to take an honest look at your level of busyness. Not the kind that feels productive and energized… but the kind that leaves you wired at night, exhausted in the morning, and constantly rushing from one thing to the next. Dr. Emily walks through three powerful signs that you may have stepped into unhealthy busyness: • Difficulty sleeping because your body never truly relaxes • Rushing through your life without enjoying the moments you chose • A brain that never gets a break This episode isn't about adding another task to your list. It's about asking deeper questions: Am I as busy as I actually want to be? Did I feel rushed and overwhelmed today? What drains me? What fulfills me? Dr. Emily also explores the spiritual side of busyness — how constant stress and high cortisol levels leave very little space to hear, see, and recognize the small miracles happening around us. When we live in constant rush, we operate at the bare minimum of existence. And that's not the life we're meant to live. Instead, she invites you to identify your non-negotiables: Sleep. Brain breaks. Time that feels luxurious instead of frantic. Moments that feel meaningful instead of obligatory. You don't need to overhaul your life overnight. You don't need to add another commitment. You simply need space — space to reflect, space to breathe, space to choose differently. At the end of the episode, Dr. Emily shares a gentle daily reflection practice and a prayerful invitation: to align your desires with what truly nourishes your body, mind, and spirit. Because health isn't just about weight loss. It's about living in a way that feels whole. If you've been telling yourself you "don't have time" to slow down… this is the exact episode you need.

Italian sauce for your Pad Thai? Adam, David and Neil go through their calls and categories for the opening round of the 2026 MotoGP season. ‘Moments', ‘Winners & Losers', ‘Grades' and much more as we Tuk Tuk our way through the first review show of the year.

When Muhammad Ali stopped Jean-Pierre Coopman in five rounds on February 20, 1976, in San Juan, it was a controlled and confident defense of his heavyweight title. Ali dictated the pace from the opening bell, snapping jabs and sharp combinations while keeping the overmatched challenger at bay until the referee stepped in. The performance earned Ali the cover of the March 1, 1976 issue of Sports Illustrated, a reminder that even a routine title defense still revolved around “The Greatest.” Moments like that take on more meaning when viewed through the lens of Professor Gerald Early, one of the leading scholars on Ali's life and legacy. As editor of The Muhammad Ali Reader, Early explores Ali as more than just a boxer — he examines him as a cultural force who reshaped conversations about race, politics, and celebrity. On Past Our Prime, Early helped us connect the fighter that was Ali to the much bigger story outside the ring. Professor Early tells us how Ali's refusal to serve in the Vietnam War, a stand rooted in his faith cost him his title and years in his prime and went on to explain how Ali's conversion to Islam shaped his identity, discipline, and sense of purpose, and how his beliefs guided some of the most consequential decisions of his career. And then the conversation turned personal. Early shared that as a kid, he didn't just admire Ali — he thought he was a superhero. Years later, actually meeting Ali brought that childhood awe full circle, reminding him that sometimes your heroes can be human and still be larger than life. When you step back, that's really the story — a dominant champion in 1976, a man willing to sacrifice for his convictions, and a figure who inspired a generation. From the ring to the broader culture to one young fan who grew up to become a leading Ali scholar, it all came together in a way that felt both historic and personal on the Past Our Prime podcast.

JUPITER, Fla. -- Thomas Saggese has questions for the host of the Best Podcast in Baseball. Moments after finishing his first ever start in center field for the Cardinals, Saggese joins baseball writer Derrick Goold to talk about the transition to a new position and how much work he wants there before playing it in the regular season. But that's not all. Through the years, Saggese has often shifted interviews to ask great questions he has about history, statistics, and specifically voting for the MVP, other awards, and the National Baseball Hall of Fame. He was invited on the podcast so he could flip the script and ask those questions as part of a conversation. What follows is a deep dive into the decisions that go with a ballot, whether it's the MVP ballot or the Hall of Fame. The conversation explores how measuring a player with statistics contrasts with how a player measures themselves. Saggese talks about how he values batting average but avoids looking at it, and how when he's thinking about hitting he's seeking feel. Goold wonders what the reaction would be if he explained his votes for MVP and Hall of Fame by saying it just "felt right." And yet there's more common ground between statistics measuring a players production, especially as they evolve, and how a player works for that production. The podcast was recorded outside the Cardinals' new spring training facility, where construction continues. You'll hear it. More Post-Dispatch podcasts.  Please consider subscribing. In its 14th season as one of the first and most widely heard podcasts on baseball and the Cardinals, the Best Podcast in Baseball has reached a new season-high with 30 episodes. Each episode is sponsored weekly by Closets by Design of St. Louis, is a production of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, StlToday.com, and lead baseball writer Derrick Goold.

Shot of Nostalgia: Shuffle continues with your host Acefield Retro, and this week we revisit April 4, 1993, WrestleMania IX from Caesars Palace in Paradise, Nevada. The first fully outdoor WrestleMania. The World's Largest Toga Party. A Roman coliseum theme complete with live animals, trumpeters, and commentators fully committed to the presentation. But beyond the spectacle, this event represents a pivot. This episode traces the road into WrestleMania IX through the March and April 1993 Wrestling Observer Newsletter coverage, capturing a company navigating lawsuits, scrutiny, roster instability, and mounting pressure. Bret Hart entered as WWF Champion. Yokozuna had been elevated as the dominant Royal Rumble winner. Hulk Hogan had returned, but his long term direction was fluid rather than locked in. The structure of the card reflects that instability. Shawn Michaels versus Tatanka opens with an Intercontinental Championship match that creates movement without definitive closure, immediately signaling protection over payoff. The Steiner Brothers versus the Headshrinkers provide one of the night's most cohesive in ring performances, reinforcing how effective the tag division could be when execution was clean. Doink versus Crush leans heavily into character psychology and spectacle, highlighted by the double Doink finish. We examine the originally planned mechanical stunt that was scrapped and what that decision says about the era's emphasis on visual moments. Razor Ramon secures a direct win over Bob Backlund, continuing his steady rise. The Tag Team Championship match between Money Inc. and the Mega Maniacs unfolds through referee bumps, disqualification tension, and spectacle driven pacing. We revisit the reported late reshuffling that removed the originally planned tag title blow off and centered Hogan more prominently on the card. Lex Luger's WrestleMania debut against Mr. Perfect introduces rope leverage controversy and is layered with behind the scenes anecdotes that contribute to the uneven rhythm of the night. The Undertaker versus Giant Gonzalez becomes one of the most criticized finishes in WrestleMania history, prioritizing theatricality over decisive resolution. The championship picture ultimately defines the event. Bret Hart versus Yokozuna is framed as a generational collision until Mr. Fuji's salt interference shifts the WWF Championship. Moments later, Hulk Hogan enters, accepts an impromptu challenge, and captures the title in approximately twenty seconds. With three decades of hindsight, this episode examines whether that closing decision reflects creative confusion or calculated business pragmatism. The Observer context suggests urgency. The optics suggest an audible. The result reshaped Bret Hart's reign, altered Yokozuna's trajectory, and placed Hogan back on top during a volatile moment for the company. WrestleMania IX is remembered for its ending. It deserves to be studied for what it reveals about transition, pressure, and how quickly direction can change when stability becomes the priority.

Today's post is a little different.I had something else planned, but I felt led to share from my personal Bible study this morning.I was reading Psalm 40, and it hit me in a fresh way — because in one Psalm, you see David move through multiple “modes” that many of us recognize:despairbreakthroughworshipboldnessand then… trouble againSo here's what we're going to do:I'm going to read Psalm 40 (NLT)Then I'll walk through the key sections and pull out the lessonsWe'll end with a prayerIf you want to grab your Bible and read alongside me, you can.Psalm 40 (NLT)“I waited patiently for the Lord to help me, and He turned to me and heard my cry. He lifted me out of the pit of despair, out of the mud and the mire. He set my feet on solid ground and steadied me as I walked along. He has given me a new song to sing, a hymn of praise to our God. Many will see what He has done and be amazed. They will put their trust in the Lord…” (Psalm 40:1–3)“Oh, the joys of those who trust the Lord, who have no confidence in the proud or in those who worship idols. O Lord my God, You have performed many wonders for us. Your plans for us are too numerous to list. You have no equal…” (Psalm 40:4–5)“You take no delight in sacrifices or offerings. Now that You have made me listen, I finally understand— You don't require burnt offerings or sin offerings. Then I said, ‘Look, I have come. As is written about me in the Scriptures: I take joy in doing Your will, my God, for Your instructions are written on my heart.'” (Psalm 40:6–8)“I've told all Your people about Your justice. I have not been afraid to speak out, as You, O Lord, well know… I have talked about Your faithfulness and saving power… I have told everyone in the great assembly of Your unfailing love and faithfulness.” (Psalm 40:9–10)“Lord, don't hold back Your tender mercies from me. Let Your unfailing love and faithfulness always protect me. For trouble surrounds me—too many to count… They outnumber the hairs of my head. I have lost all courage.” (Psalm 40:11–12)“Please, Lord, rescue me! Come quickly, Lord, and help me…” (Psalm 40:13)“But may all who search for You be filled with joy and gladness in You. May those who love Your salvation repeatedly shout, ‘The Lord is great!'” (Psalm 40:16)“As for me, since I am poor and needy, let the Lord keep me in His thoughts. You are my Helper and my Savior. O my God, do not delay.” (Psalm 40:17)What Psalm 40 Shows UsPsalm 40 gives us a picture of David experiencing multiple seasons in one Psalm.And honestly… that's what life feels like.There are moments we're strong.Moments we're grateful. Moments we're worshiping. And moments we're pleading again.Let's break it down.Read the rest at: https://open.substack.com/pub/litwithprayer/p/my-help-and-my-deliverer

Welcome Philly-native Tom Kinka! Tom is currently the touring drummer for up-and-coming country artist Lecade. Growing up in a music-heavy family shaped by Rock Band, Blink-182, and country music in his mom's car, Tom's passion for music and the drums was developed at an early age. Tom shares how a serious car accident and coma at 17 sharpened his focus on music, leading to a fearless, “persistence and idiocy” approach. He discusses leaving a jazz program at Temple for media production, navigating Philly's DIY pop-punk scene, moving to Nashville during COVID, learning country on the fly for Broadway, seeking lessons directly from his heroes like Josh Manuel and Luke Holland, and landing the Lecade gig—plus touring highlights, onstage gear fails, evolving drum setups, and his obsession with stick tricks and community.

At the State of the Union, lawmakers were asked to stand for a simple principle: that the first duty of government is to protect American citizens. Many Democrats remained seated. When pressed afterward, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer avoided saying Americans come first. Former Speaker Nancy Pelosi deflected with constitutional rhetoric. Meanwhile in New York, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez promoted childcare access regardless of immigration status as property tax hikes sparked backlash from homeowners. At the federal level, former President Donald Trump announced a sweeping anti-fraud initiative led by Vice President JD Vance, with claims that government waste could total up to a trillion dollars annually. Tara connects the dots: political fear, base pressure, voter math, sanctuary city policy, and why this moment may be bigger than one speech.

César Faison's 1999–2000 return to General Hospital marked one of his most manipulative and far-reaching storylines. Resurfacing in Switzerland under an alias, Faison secretly conducted diamond deals with Luke Spencer involving the Ice Princess, all while Luke remained unaware he was working with the man believed responsible for Robert and Anna's deaths. At the same time, Faison revealed himself as the mastermind behind Lucky Spencer's presumed death, holding Lucky captive and staging an elaborate cover-up using falsified medical records and surveillance to convince the world he was gone. Faison controlled Lucky through psychological manipulation, threatening Elizabeth Webber and forcing Lucky into strategic mind games while Helena Cassadine's involvement hinted at a larger plan unfolding behind the scenes. As Luke discovered Faison's true identity, the diamond scheme escalated into a personal battle that pulled Felicia and Mac Scorpio into the chaos, straining relationships and raising the emotional stakes. Even after arrest, Faison continued manipulating events, ultimately escaping custody and delivering a final bombshell to Luke: Lucky was alive. Moments later, Faison disappeared in a boat explosion, leaving Port Charles once again believing he was dead. In the aftermath, Luke began to suspect Helena's deeper role in the scheme, setting the stage for future revelations and proving once again that Faison's greatest weapon was never violence — it was control.

Most families have those stories that surface around the dinner table…the ones that make everyone laugh, or pause, or even remember someone who isn’t there anymore.  Moments like that remind us how much our lives are shaped by the people who came before us and how important that connection can be. There's something called Family Discovery Day that's happening next week -- and it's built around that same feeling of connection, for people to have a chance to explore where they come from with the entire family. Jonathan Wing, Director of Events - Family Search International, joins the show to explain more.

In this episode of Masters of Moments, Jake Wurzak sits down with Ethan Orley to unpack his unconventional path into boutique hotel development and management. What started as a post-GFC leap of faith on a 28-room hotel in Knoxville evolved into a design-driven hospitality platform focused on secondary and tertiary markets. Ethan shares how creativity, operational intensity, and disciplined real estate underwriting intersect in his approach to building distinctive properties that stand out without overextending on risk. From bootstrapping a speakeasy with six frat guys and free beer to navigating brand partnerships, third-party management, and the realities of food and beverage, Ethan offers a candid look at what it really takes to create and operate memorable hotels. He reflects on design storytelling, the importance of basis and incentives, and why sometimes the best opportunities are found off the radar. They discuss: How Ethan went from distressed debt and apartments to boutique hotels in secondary markets The role of design narrative and storytelling in creating differentiated hospitality experiences Why basis, incentives, and downside protection matter more than chasing hot markets Lessons learned from building and operating in-house management versus using third parties The hard truths of hotel food and beverage and what separates a struggling outlet from a profitable one Connect & Invest with Jake: Follow Jake on X: ⁠https://x.com/JWurzak⁠ 1 on 1 coaching with Jake: ⁠https://www.jakewurzak.com/coaching⁠ Learn How to Invest with DoveHill: ⁠https://bit.ly/3yg8Pwo⁠ Links: Oliver Hospitality - https://www.oliverhospitality.com/ Ethan on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/ethanorley/ Topics: (00:00:00) - Intro (00:0:22) - Why hotels: operations, design passion, and real estate upside (00:06:02) - Winning in secondary & tertiary markets (00:12:54) - Betting on ‘mixed' markets (00:16:44) - Indie vs. branded hotels (00:27:20) - Finding deals without a fund (00:32:17) - Design & storytelling (00:36:03) - Crafting the hotel's storyline (00:42:03) - When to use third-party management (00:48:50) - Outsourcing accounting & SOPs (00:52:40) - Food & beverage reality check (01:02:05) - Non-negotiables in new builds (01:07:13) - Favorite hospitality experience

In this week's episode of Leadership Insider, I talk about something we all experience but rarely frame correctly — difficulty.Setbacks.Betrayal.Unexpected collisions.Moments that knock the wind out of you.Most people try to escape it.Some become hardened by it.A few learn to use it.The difference is everything.Crash test dummies take the hit so others can learn how to survive it. In many ways, that's what responsibility looks like — taking the collision and extracting the lesson.The question isn't whether difficulty will come.The question is: Will you use it?Key Takeaways• Every setback contains insight most people never retrieve.• If you don't process pain, it makes you guarded.• If you do process it, it makes you wiser.• Difficulty can either shrink you or sharpen you.• What you learn in private becomes someone else's breakthrough later.• Don't just survive the hit — study it.There is treasure inside what hurt you.But you have to go back and collect it.Use the difficulty.Listen to the full episode and let me know what it taught you.Subscribe and share.@paulscanlonuk

I stopped when I noticed two does feeding about 300 yards off, and whispered to my wife that I was going to practice aiming. Moments later, a few more deer showed up. As I watched them through the scope, a big buck appeared, and my heart raced full-throttle. The buck nosed through the does, and twice when he stood still, I started to squeeze the trigger. However, he started moving again, and I anxiously waited for the right opportunity. He...

Today, we're welcoming Bob Campana, a California-based serial entrepreneur with more than 40 years of experience building businesses across hospitality, travel, real estate, and aviation.ROBERT's WebsiteROBERT on YouTubeFrom hot tub manufacturing to founding the beloved Redwood Café in Modesto, to leading Redwood Café Tours across Europe, Asia, and Oceania, Bob's career is a living case study in adaptability, optimism, and grit.He's also the author of the book Don't Look Down! The Improbable Adventures and Battle-Tested Lessons of a Serial Entrepreneur, where he shares candid lessons learned from a lifetime of figuring it out as he went. Bob has his own entrepreneurship podcast, continuing his mission to share what really happens behind the scenes of business building.1. A Lifetime of ReinventionBob, you've built businesses in very different industries—from manufacturing to hospitality to aviation. Looking back over 40 years, what allowed you to keep reinventing yourself rather than getting stuck in one version of success?2. Risk, Fear, and the Title “Don't Look Down!”Your book title says a lot. Don't Look Down! suggests both courage and consequence. How have you learned to take risks without being reckless—and what's one moment when looking down might have stopped you if you'd let it?3. Building Places That Connect PeopleRedwood Café became more than a restaurant—it became a community hub, and now it's evolved into Redwood Café Tours around the world. What do you think makes an experience or a business truly memorable to people? (Bob recommends two books. “Moments of Truth: How the SAS President and CEO Adapted to the New Customer-Driven Economy” by Jan Carlzon. “Setting the Table: The Transforming Power of Hospitality in Business” by Danny Meyer.)4. Lessons Earned the Hard WayYour book promises “battle-tested lessons,” not theory. What are one or two hard-earned truths about entrepreneurship that you wish more people understood before they start their first venture?5. What's Next—and Why Keep Going?You're still expanding into real estate and aircraft leasing, writing books, and launching a podcast. What keeps you energized at this stage—and what advice would you give to entrepreneurs who wonder if it's too late to start something new?Bob, if you could leave our listeners with one mindset or principle that's helped you navigate uncertainty over four decades, what would it be?

This is a Real Ghost Stories CLASSIC EPISODE!While stationed at FE Warren Air Force Base, a young airman thought exhaustion was playing tricks on him. First, it was the sound of boots running through an almost empty 1800s cavalry dormitory — footsteps so heavy they shook the doorframe. But when he stepped into the hallway to confront whoever was making the noise… there was no one there.Months later, miles from base in the desolate prairie of northern Colorado, he and a fellow airman encountered something even stranger. A lone man in coveralls and a cowboy hat walking a gravel road in the middle of nowhere — long after midnight.They slowed down to check on him. Moments later, he was directly in front of their truck. And then… he wasn't. Others stationed there had seen him too.So the question remains — who is walking those roads after dark?#RealGhostStoriesOnline #MilitaryHaunting #GhostRancher #ParanormalEncounter #FEWarren #PrairiePhantom #HauntedBase #ShadowFigure #TrueGhostStory #MidnightWalker Love real ghost stories?

Erica had experienced unexplained moments since childhood, but this encounter stayed with her for a different reason. While living in an old Portland apartment, she felt footsteps pass behind her and noticed her cat focused on something she couldn't see. Moments later, an image appeared in her mind — a man dressed in clothing from another era.The experience wasn't frightening, just unexpected. It faded quickly, leaving Erica unsure what to make of it. Weeks later, while speaking with her landlord, she learned the house had once been divided during the 1940s and occupied by a World War II officer and his family.The realization didn't shock her — it settled something. For the first time, an experience aligned naturally with history she hadn't known at the time. It didn't explain everything, but it made one moment finally make sense.#UnexplainedEncounter #ParanormalExperience #OldHouseStories #QuietHauntings #SeeingBeyond #TrueParanormal #RealGhostStories #ParanormalValidation #UnseenPresence #WhatSheFeltLove real ghost stories?
