Allie was joined by Megan Basham, culture reporter for the Daily Wire, to discuss her investigation into the After Party, a curriculum written by Curtis Chang, David French, and Russell Moore, which is being pushed onto churches in an effort to bring Christians of different political backgrounds together. Megan shares how this curriculum not only fails at its objective but is funded by secular progressives: Rockefeller Philanthropy Advisors. We discuss why Rockefeller's interest in bankrolling Bible studies is a red flag, including the fact that among the other initiatives funded are organizations that are pro-LGBTQ and pro-abortion. What's in the After Party curriculum and what message is it really sending? We also look at the "AND Campaign" and how it is also funded by the Rockefellers. We explain how politics is a way to love our neighbor and why getting it right matters for the church. --- Timecodes: (01:12) What is The After Party? / Rockefeller funding (07:50) What are their motivations?

The real mistake isn't spending too much. It's dying with money you never used. Bill Perkins built a career generating over $2.2 billion in trading profits as a hedge fund manager. His book Die With Zero reframes what money is actually for. Money is a tool, not a goal. Every dollar you hold at death represents life energy you spent earning it and never converted into something real. The question isn't how much you save. It's whether you're using your wealth, your health, and your time together, in the right order, to get the most out of your one shot. That's where memory dividends come in. When you invest in an experience, you don't just get the moment. You get a return every time you recall it, tell the story, or relive it in conversation. The joy compounds long after the trip ends. But timing matters more than most people realize. Your ability to convert money into meaningful experience decays as you age. The adventures your body wants now won't be available at 72. Life is like Tetris. Get the pieces in the right order, and you get everything. Delay too long, and the window quietly closes. Die With Zero: Getting All You Can from Your Money and Your Life Amazon Ebook Audiobook Bill on X Bill on Instagram In this episode you will: Understand the Die With Zero philosophy and why every dollar you die holding is proof you worked for no reward Discover the memory dividend concept and why investing in experiences now pays compounding joy long after the moment passes Learn the time bucket framework for getting your biggest experiences in the right order before your body, not your bank account, makes the decision for you Identify the biggest psychological crime around money: fearing you'll run out instead of fearing you'll waste your one life Build the belief, mindset, and consistency that Bill Perkins says are the three keys to earning more and actually feeling fulfilled by what you have For more information go to https://lewishowes.com/1937 For more Greatness text PODCAST to +1 (614) 350-3960 Follow The Daily Motivation for essential highlights from The School of Greatness More SOG episodes we think you'll love: Lewis Howes Solo [$0-1M Blueprint] Mrs. Dow Jones Myron Golden TOPICS Bill Perkins, Die With Zero, memory dividends, time buckets, life is Tetris, scarcity mindset, net fulfillment, legacy and inheritance, Your Money or Your Life, financial fulfillment Get More From Lewis!

This episode was sponsored by Cardiff & ProWest Roofing and Restoration LightSpeed VT: https://www.lightspeedvt.com/ Dropping Bombs Podcast: https://www.droppingbombs.com/ Today's Dropping Bombs episode delivers a raw redemption story with Bob Schober — a man who was sleeping in a Volkswagen, selling food stamps for half price, and chasing Grateful Dead tours before he found sobriety at 28 years old and never looked back. Twenty-eight years clean and a nine-figure roofing exit later, he's here to talk about what he built — and what he's doing with it now. Bob breaks down the private equity deal that changed everything, why he walked away from the operator seat, and the program he's running inside prisons — training inmates on sales and roofing before they ever hit the street. Plus, how giving away cash every week turned into 400 million views in under 90 days. A man who once couldn't feed himself is now feeding entire communities.
What if you could practice energetic boundaries, attunement, and tending to life's quiet nudges every single day? This week, Jessica welcomes gardener, designer, author, and TBMer Bailey Van Tassel for a conversation about reconnecting to authenticity through the land and allowing abundance to flow through alignment instead of force. Bailey shares how The Money Challenge transformed her relationship with worthiness, how childhood conditioning created financial blocks, and how learning to honor herself shifted everything: her business, her nervous system, and her experience of success. Together, they explore the healing power of gardening, co-creating with nature, inner child work, and simplifying life around what truly lights you up. It's time to behold the magic around you — and to be witnessed in return. Ready to step into your power? The Be Seen Challenge is live — drop into the TBM app to take the kickoff quiz and begin.

You're making more money than you ever have. Your net worth on paper looks great. And yet somehow, there's still too much month left at the end of the money. Joe, OG, Paula Pant, and Jesse Cramer dig into why high earners feel financially squeezed -- and why the answer is almost never what you think it is. Spoiler: it's usually not the lattes, it's not too many accounts, and it might not even be a spending problem at all.What You'll Walk Away WithWhy lifestyle inflation doesn't feel like inflation -- it feels like deserved progress, and why that's exactly what makes it so hard to catchThe crucial difference between feeling like you didn't save enough and actually not saving enough -- and why OG's take on this is the most useful thing in the episodePaula's one big fixed cost audit: why making a single large decision beats constantly making small DoorDash decisionsWhy tracking your spending is the calorie counting of personal finance -- only useful short-term, but powerful for getting an honest snapshot before you make any changesThe paper wealth trap: why a high net worth and strong portfolio can coexist with genuinely tight monthly cashflow and why people conflate themJesse's one-line-item challenge: find one thing on last month's credit card statement you wish you hadn't spent, cut it, and see what happens to your motivationWhy OG's advice to "just decide not to feel squeezed anymore" is less dismissive than it sounds -- and the number of times the actual math completely contradicted a client's feelingsThe boats conversation: why a good financial advisor's job isn't to tell you whether to buy the boat but to show you what it costs in terms of your actual goalsWhy comparing your savings rate to the FIRE community can make you feel terrible about saving an objectively impressive amount of moneyThe goal clarity test: if you can't articulate what you're saving toward in specific, time-bound, dollar-denominated terms, the squeezed feeling probably has nothing to do with your budgetWhy This Matters NowHousing, food, and transportation costs are genuinely higher. That part is real. But for a meaningful chunk of the people who feel financially squeezed, the math and the feeling are pointing in different directions. This episode is about figuring out which one you're actually dealing with -- and what to do differently once you know.From the BasementJoe, OG, Paula Pant, and Jesse Cramer work through the Wall Street Journal's reporting on why so many Americans feel financially squeezed even at high income levels -- and whether the problem is real, psychological, or both. OG is recording from a conference adjacent to Disney World and has opinions about wood delivery, boats, and people who feel bad about saving $87,000 a year. Paula gets the giggles. The trivia competition features a man who mowed Steve Wozniak's lawn and had the license plate to prove it. OG wins with suspicious precision. Ronald Wayne, who sold his 10% of Apple for $800 twelve days after founding the company, has a worse story than anyone on this podcast.Resources MentionedFinancial Samurai -- referenced for the lifestyle inflation quote; financialsamurai.comAfford Anything podcast -- Paula Pant; Joe joins most Tuesdays for listener Q&APersonal Finance for Long-Term Investors -- Jesse Cramer; current series: 14 risks in retirement, Charlie Munger inversion framework; two-part series now completeStacking Benjamins Vault -- stackingbenjamins.com/vaultStacking Benjamins Newsletter (The 201) -- stackingbenjamins.com/201OG financial planning calendar -- stackingbenjamins.com/ogStacking Benjamins Community -- stackingbenjamins.com/basementSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Circle froze $12M in a DeFi pool on a Friday court order, trapping users who had nothing to do with the dispute. . Polymarket couldn't resolve a Strategy market. And MegaETH's apps are defecting. Nothing is simple. ======================================================== Thank you to our sponsors! Multichain Advisors: Get help navigating TGEs, go‑to‑market, BD and partnerships, capital markets advisory, PR, media placements, KOL activations and more at https://multichainadv.com. ======================================================== Strategy sold 32 Bitcoin before the May 31 deadline. It just didn't disclose it until June 1 — and that one-day gap is why a $50M Polymarket market resolved "no," even though Strategy's own 8-K shows the sale happened inside the window.Kain Warwick, Luca Netz, and Taylor Monahan trace why Polymarket keeps writing resolution criteria that break under edge cases, and why handing oracle duties to UMA is a liability for a $20 billion platform. They also get into the third proposal to cut Solana's staking inflation, and what it would take to spark an "ultrasound money" moment for SOL. The most consequential story is Circle. A Friday-afternoon ex-parte court order froze a $12M commingled USDC pool all weekend, trapping innocent users' funds inside the Zama privacy protocol. Taylor's warning: Circle's policy of complying with any court order without retaining a final say creates a replicable attack template for any pool with USDC exposure. The episode closes on MegaETH and Monad: Kain on whether the "Mega Mafia" approach was adverse selection from the start, and Luca on what chains actually owe their builders.

I want to alert you, so you don’t miss out on expert analysis and insider perspectives from my guests who provide tips that can help you uplift the community, improve your financial planning, motivation, or advice on how to be a successful entrepreneur. Keep winning! Two-time Emmy and Three-time NAACP Image Award-winning, television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed Dr. Lynn Richardson. Renowned financial literacy expert, educator, and entrepreneur—joins Rushion McDonald for a wide-ranging, practical conversation about money mindset, financial mistakes, entrepreneurship, tax strategy, multiple streams of income, and estate planning. Blending personal storytelling with direct instruction, Dr. Lynn breaks down why many people struggle financially despite earning good money, and why education, planning, and conversation—not income alone—are the keys to wealth-building, particularly within the Black community. Her tone is candid, no‑nonsense, and empowering—earning her self-described reputation as the “Madea of money.” Purpose of the Interview The interview is designed to: Normalize “money-making conversations” in households, businesses, and communities Challenge myths about income, success, and financial security Educate listeners on practical, legal strategies for budgeting, taxes, business structure, and generational wealth Encourage financial transparency, planning, and action, especially among entrepreneurs and families Shift mindset from survival and spending to strategy and stewardship At its core, the interview reinforces that financial empowerment starts with education and honest dialogue—not luck, prayer alone, or higher income. Key Takeaways 1. More Money Does Not Fix Money Problems Dr. Lynn explains that earning more without changing behavior and mindset only magnifies financial issues. She shares her own journey of making tens of thousands per month while still living paycheck-to-Monday. Core lesson: Income is not the problem—money management is. 2. Silence and Shame Keep People Financially Stuck Many people avoid addressing financial trouble due to pride, fear, or cultural conditioning (“don’t air dirty laundry”). Dr. Lynn emphasizes that the first step to financial recovery is speaking up and facing reality. Core lesson:Financial healing begins with honesty—not hiding. 3. Money Is Predictable Math, Not Mystery Dr. Lynn demystifies money as a simple equation: if expenses exceed income, the outcome is guaranteed. Emotional avoidance turns math into bondage. Core lesson: “Money is more predictable than anything—one plus one always equals two.” 4. Children Are Financial Assets When Taught Properly She explains a powerful tax strategy: hiring children (or relatives) in a home-based business and paying them up to the IRS threshold tax-free, while teaching them skills and entrepreneurship. Core lesson:Children shouldn’t just consume money—they can learn how it works. 5. Most Entrepreneurs Are Undereducated About Business Dr. Lynn criticizes the rise of “janky businesses”—LLCs without proper structure, records, or protections—leaving owners exposed legally and financially. Core lesson:Talent without business education leads to unnecessary risk. 6. One Stream of Income Is Dangerous She strongly reinforces that relying on a single income source is no longer viable for financial security. Wealth requires multiple, independent income streams. Core lesson:Job security is not wealth security. 7. Estate Planning Is a Responsibility, Not a Luxury Dr. Lynn reframes estate planning as a life and legacy plan, not something only for the wealthy. Without a plan, the government decides what happens to your assets. Core lesson:Everyone has an estate—the question is who controls it. Notable Quotes “Money making conversations isn’t just a title—it’s a movement and a lifestyle.” “Rich people stay rich because they act poor. Poor people stay poor because they act rich.” “The first adjustment anybody needs to make is to open their mouth and talk to someone.” “One stream of income is hazardous to your wealth.” “If you don’t have an estate plan, the government has one for you.” “You spend the money and it’s gone. I spend the money and I get it back—legally.” Conclusion This interview positions Dr. Lynn Richardson as both a financial truth-teller and a practical strategist. Her message is clear: Wealth is built through education, planning, structure, and conversation Financial mistakes are common—but avoidable Generational wealth requires intentional action, not silence or hope The episode reinforces Money Making Conversations Masterclass as a platform not just for inspiration—but for execution and accountability. #SHMS #BEST #STRAWSupport the show: https://www.steveharveyfm.com/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
This episode is brought to you by Redefining Wealth LIVE. Join me for the transformational experience that will challenge the way you think about success, wealth, and well-being. Redefining Wealth LIVE is where purpose-driven individuals come together to gain clarity, alignment, and momentum in creating lives that truly reflect their values. If you're ready to break free from default thinking and step into a more fulfilled, abundant life, don't miss this event. ✨ About This Season: The Anatomy of Alignment This season of Redefining Wealth is dedicated to unpacking what alignment really means — not as a buzzword, but as structure. We're dissecting how misalignment impacts each of the Six Pillars of Wealth — FIT, PEOPLE, SPACE, FAITH, WORK, and MONEY — and what it truly costs when we tolerate what drains us. Each episode builds on the last. So subscribe and journey with us as we move from awakening… to redefining… to actualizing. Episode Summary In today's episode, we explore the grief that can accompany alignment. Reflecting on a transformative week in Mexico, Patrice shares what happens when choosing yourself is the right decision—but still breaks your heart. Through vulnerable storytelling, she unpacks the emotions that surfaced after releasing something she genuinely loved and reminds listeners that growth often requires grieving what no longer fits. Patrice challenges the tendency to romanticize the past and offers practical ways to navigate difficult transitions, including creating a “truth list” and reassigning meaning to endings. Ultimately, this episode is a reminder that grief is not proof you made the wrong choice—it's often proof that something mattered. Alignment may come with loss, but it also creates space for a life rooted in purpose, truth, and self-trust. Questions to Ask Yourself: What am I grieving right now, even though I know I made the right decision? Have I been intellectualizing my emotions instead of actually feeling them? What truths am I overlooking because I'm romanticizing the past? Where have I mistaken grief as evidence that I should go back? How can I reassign meaning to this season instead of labeling it a failure? What would it look like to trust myself more deeply in this next chapter? Want to Redefine Wealth for Yourself? Start Here:

Cody Berman had the $80,000 corporate job straight out of college, the four-hour daily commute, and the career path everyone said he should want. He hated all of it. By 25, he was financially free -- not because he stumbled into crypto or built a unicorn startup, but because he obsessively maximized the gap between what he made and what he spent, tried 30 different side hustles until a few of them worked, and built a life around what he actually valued. His new book is called Retire by 30. This episode is the conversation behind it.What You'll Walk Away WithWhy the title Retire by 30 is deliberately misleading -- and what Cody says the book is actually aboutThe gap: why the spread between income and expenses matters more than your investment returns, especially at the beginningHow Cody's co-host Justin hit financial freedom at 30 without a single side hustle -- just strategic corporate moves, index funds, and a 75-80% savings rateThe house hacking math: why living in a multi-family property created a $3,000+ monthly swing compared to friends paying Boston rentWhat happened when Cody tried to sell Lauren on FIRE using a spreadsheet -- and the reframe that actually workedWhy the big three (housing, transportation, food) move the needle infinitely more than cutting lattes and canceling NetflixThe 30-side-hustle graveyard: which ones were the worst, which one was the most ridiculous, and the one breakout that still generates income todayPurple's story: how someone retired on $500,000 and now has $1.1 million without adding another dollar to the pileThe surprising thing financial freedom actually teaches you about yourself -- and why it's never a money problem after you hit the numberWhat AI is actually good at for personal finance -- and why the more you already know, the better its answers getWhy This Matters NowWhether you're 25 or 55, the math Cody lays out is the same: find the gap, protect the gap, invest the difference, and build a life you don't need to escape from. The age you start determines the timeline, not the framework. This episode is the one to send to anyone in their 20s who hasn't started -- and anyone in their 40s who thinks it's too late.From the BasementCody Berman joins Joe and OG -- who is recording from inside Hollywood Studios at Coach Con -- to walk through the Retire by 30 framework, the 30 side hustles he actually tried, and the case studies from the book that prove it works in wildly different ways. The USA Today AI financial advice headline gives OG a full platform to explain where AI is genuinely useful, where it confidently hallucinates IRS codes, and why it apparently tried to blackmail a corporate email server.

A record 55% of Americans say their financial situation is getting worse, and 67% say they're more afraid of running out of money than dying. This week, Jean sits down with Carrie Joy Grimes, author of the new book The Joy of Money, for a candid, wide-ranging conversation about financial anxiety, behavioral science, and exactly what wealthy people are doing with their money right now. In this episode, we cover: What wealthy people do differently with their money during volatile markets The Life Happens Fund: why a basic emergency fund isn't enough and how to build a real financial cushion The three-step self-compassion practice backed by behavioral science that helps you stop shame-spiraling over money mistakes The "Good Enough Retirement Vision" exercise that will help you stop feeling paralyzed about the future And if today's conversation got you thinking about your financial future, don't miss Jean's brand new book, The Forever Paycheck.

In this episode of The Dukes of Hazzard, Boss Hogg cooks up one of his most ambitious scams yet when he's tasked with turning over a million dollars in worn-out currency to be destroyed and replaced with fresh cash. Rather than follow the rules, Boss devises a plan to keep the money, collect the replacement funds, and cash in on an insurance claim at the same time. To pull it off, he recruits his second cousin twice removed, Cletus Hogg, making this the memorable first appearance of the lovable deputy-to-be who would become a longtime fan favorite. Rob Kibbe, Corndog, and Bernie McPartland revisit this classic Season 1 episode and break down Boss Hogg's elaborate fraud scheme, the introduction of Rick Hurst as Cletus Hogg, and the impressive General Lee action that fills the episode from start to finish. The guys also discuss the unique charm of the early California-filmed episodes, including the rough-and-tumble stunt work, real driving footage, and the debut of Daisy Duke's updated Road Runner that would become a familiar sight throughout the series. Filled with crooked politics, million-dollar schemes, moonshine mix-ups, and plenty of Hazzard County chaos, "Money to Burn" captures everything that made the first season of The Dukes of Hazzard special. It's an important milestone episode for longtime fans, not only because of Cletus Hogg's debut, but also because it showcases the grounded action, memorable characters, and lighthearted storytelling that helped turn the series into a television classic. The post K&F Show #367: Cletus Hogg Arrives // Dukes VIDEO Review S1E11 “Money to Burn” first appeared on The Muscle Car Place.

(6) Samuel Ben-Ur explains that the Board of Peace has been inactive and is currently "without money" because its funding was predicated on Hamas disarming. Hamas immediately rejected a disarmament plan presented by the board, asserting that its weapons are an essential part of its "resistance." The group's political leadership remains protected in Doha, Qatar, due to U.S. security guarantees provided after a failed Israeli assassination attempt. Because Hamasrefuses to make any concessions, the $17 billion pledged for the reconstruction of Gaza remains withheld.1899 NAZARETH

New Money Making Conversations episodes drop daily. I want to alert you, so you don’t miss out on expert analysis and insider perspectives from my guests who provide tips that can help you uplift the community, improve your financial planning, motivation, or advice on how to be a successful entrepreneur. Keep winning! Two-time Emmy and Three-time NAACP Image Award-winning, television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed Adonis Lockett. Titles: Private Capital Expert, Real Estate Investor, EducatorBackground: Former engineer for NASA, Boeing, Lockheed Martin, CaterpillarHost: Rushion McDonaldPodcast: Money Making Conversations Masterclass Adonis Lockett details his transition from aerospace engineering into real estate and private capital, explaining how he built wealth not just by flipping houses—but by operating on “the money side of real estate.” The interview demystifies private lending, access to capital, and how everyday individuals can participate in wealth-building without owning property themselves. Purpose of the Interview The interview aims to: Expose a lesser-known path to real estate wealth—private money and capital brokering. Challenge myths about cash buyers, flipping profits, and bank lending. Educate listeners on leverage and capital access, especially those rejected by traditional banks. Provide a practical alternative income stream that can be part-time or full-time. Introduce Adonis’s “Smart Money Blueprint” as an educational pathway into private capital. Key Themes & Takeaways 1. Engineering Was a Backup—Entrepreneurship Was the Goal Adonis earned a degree in Electrical & Mechanical Engineering, never intending to stay long-term in corporate. His engineering career provided income stability while he explored entrepreneurship. He viewed employment as predictable—but limiting. Takeaway: A high-paying job can fund your exit, not define your destiny. 2. The Leap Into Real Estate—and the Reality Behind It His first deal closed in 62 days, earning more than his annual engineering salary. He quit corporate at age 23, but what followed were four to five years of financial struggle. He survived by borrowing money monthly while peers thrived in corporate roles. Key insight: Early wins can be misleading—longevity requires business mastery, not just intelligence. 3. Ego vs. Education Adonis admits his biggest mistake was underestimating the need to learn business. He relied on intelligence and people skills instead of mentorship and systems. Perseverance saved him—but mentorship could have shortened the learning curve. Takeaway: Hustle without instruction costs time and money. 4. “The Money Isn’t in Real Estate—The Money Is in the Money” This is the core philosophy of the interview. Most “cash buyers” are not using their own cash. Over 70% of cash purchases are funded by private lenders, not banks. Private lenders deploy capital faster, with fewer requirements, and higher flexibility. Key idea: Control the capital, and you control the transaction. 5. Understanding the Private Lending Model Adonis explains how people make money without buying houses: He acts as a capital broker, connecting investors to private lenders. He earns 1–2% fees on loan amounts—often tens of thousands per deal. He carries no risk, no liability, and no capital exposure in many cases. Example:A $600,000 investment loan × 2% = $12,000 fee for facilitating the introduction. 6. Why Private Money Beats Banks Banks require: Credit checks Tax returns Debt-to-income ratios Long approval timelines Private lenders often: Skip credit checks Ignore DTI Deploy funds in 3–5 days Focus solely on deal viability Takeaway: A bank’s “no” is often exactly why private lenders say “yes.” 7. The Smart Money Blueprint Adonis created the Smart Money Blueprint to teach this system: Focuses on the money side of real estate Self-paced education (10+ hours) Hands-on deal execution Live support until students close 10 deals Designed to eliminate costly trial-and-error Core promise: Learn to be “the bank” without needing money. 8. Flipping Isn’t What It Looks Like on TV Adonis breaks down common investor mistakes: Gross profit ≠ net profit Fees, holding costs, and market shifts erase margins Most “$100K flips” net closer to $30K–$40K Lesson: Education protects profits. 9. Relationships Create Wealth—Not Transactions Early in his career, Adonis underestimated relationships. His business scaled once he aligned with high-volume investors and repeat partners. Capital flows through trust networks, not ads. Takeaway: Relationships are currency. 10. Flexible Path to Income The private money model can be: Part-time: 2–4 hours per week Full-time: Income replacement or exponential growth Key point: This is about leverage, not labor. Notable Quotes “The money isn’t in real estate—the money is in the money.” “Most cash buyers aren’t cash buyers at all.” “I was flat broke for years after quitting corporate—people don’t talk about that part.” “A bank’s no is often the reason a private lender says yes.” “Perseverance kept me alive—but mentorship would have saved me years.” “You don’t need money to be the bank—you need knowledge.” Overall Impact This interview reframes real estate success away from property ownership and toward capital intelligence. Adonis Lockett offers listeners a nontraditional, scalable, and low-risk path to wealth—particularly powerful for: Professionals stuck in high-paying jobs Entrepreneurs denied bank loans Real estate investors seeking leverage Individuals looking for alternative income streams Final message: If you understand money, you don’t need to chase property—property comes to you. #SHMS #BEST #STRAWSupport the show: https://www.steveharveyfm.com/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Paul Mort joins James Smith for a no-holds-barred conversation on work-life balance, building a business you don't want to escape, and why most people are chasing a version of freedom they haven't earned yet. A two-time Master Coach of the Year, bestselling author, and podcast host, Paul Mort makes the case that work-life balance isn't a time problem or a workload problem; it's a clarity problem, and you can't hit a target you can't see.
From 06/02 Hour 2: The Sports Junkies debate if your kids should pay you if they win lots of money.
-The show highlights allegations that billions of taxpayer dollars earmarked for “green energy” and nonprofit programs somehow found their way into the hands of politically connected organizations, leading Rob to describe government spending as the world's most expensive friends-and-family plan. -Brig. Gen. Blaine Holt (Ret.), Host of the “Dangerous Intellectuals” Podcast: General Holt joins the show for an extensive discussion on defense spending, government debt, and America's long-term financial outlook. While welcoming Pete Hegseth's decision to cancel billions in Pentagon consulting contracts, Holt calls it only a “down payment” and argues for a much broader review of military procurement and national security spending. He contends that America's debt trajectory is unsustainable, and predicts major changes to the monetary system in the years ahead.

After all, in yesterday's video, steve and I showed you the income data that looks just like a recession. The energy shock is turning into something bigger. It is hitting consumers through gasoline and utility bills. It is hitting businesses through transportation, plastics, chemicals, shipping, and margins. It is hitting importers through their trade balances. And because oil is priced in dollars, we also have to consider the dollar part of this.

Budgeting has a branding problem. For a lot of people, it feels restrictive, shame-filled, tedious, and honestly kind of like financial punishment. But what if the problem is not you? What if the problem is that what you've been calling budgeting is really just tracking where your money already went? In this episode, Shari Rash, founder of GWA Wealth, talks with Shana and Vanessa of Budget Besties and the Financial Coaching for Women Podcast about why traditional budgeting fails so many people and what actually makes a money system stick. They explain why tracking every transaction is not the same thing as budgeting, why checking your bank account and hoping for the best is not a plan, and why separating your money into spending and savings buckets can create more freedom, not less. You'll hear how their digital envelope system works, why annual and irregular expenses are usually the things that blow up your budget, and how automation can help you stop relying on willpower. They also get into the credit card points debate, why using a credit card can make it harder to stick to a budget, and why nobody built real wealth from points alone. Cute perk? Maybe. Financial plan? Absolutely not. Check out Shana and Vanessa's Free Money Stress Quiz You'll hear: Why budgeting feels so shame-filled for so many people The difference between tracking and true budgeting Why your budget needs to include annual and irregular expenses How digital spending buckets can replace old-school cash envelopes Why separating bills from spending can create more clarity How to automate bills, savings, spending, and investing Why credit card points may not be worth it if they keep you disconnected from your numbers The simple first step Shana and Vanessa recommend if your budget has never worked before If you've tried budgeting and felt like you failed, this conversation will help you see that maybe the system failed you. Budgeting should not be about obsessing over every transaction. It should be about giving your money a job before it disappears.

In this episode, Travis Chappell and producer Eric dive into one of the most debated topics in entrepreneurship: work-life balance. Inspired by comments from Poppy co-founder Allison Ellsworth about the sacrifices required to build a billion-dollar company, Travis breaks down why success looks different for everyone and why blindly following someone else's blueprint can lead to regret. This episode explores how entrepreneurs can align their priorities with their personal goals while still building meaningful wealth and freedom. On this episode we talk about: Whether building a billion-dollar company requires sacrificing work-life balance The difference between lifestyle businesses and venture-scale companies How to define success based on your personal goals instead of someone else's Why entrepreneurs should prioritize their time according to seasons of life Balancing business growth, family relationships, and personal health Top 3 Takeaways Your definition of success determines how you should structure your business and life. Not everyone wants—or needs—to build a billion-dollar company. Priorities should be aligned with your current season of life, but neglecting health or family completely often leads to long-term regret. Entrepreneurship should create freedom, not become a more demanding version of a traditional job unless that's intentionally part of your goal. Notable Quotes "You can't have three things that are equally number one priorities. That's not how a number one priority works." "Ruthlessly prioritize against your goal." "Money only solves your money problems, but it's easier to solve the rest of your problems when you've got money in the bank."

Philosopher Stefan Molyneux questions if sin is God's design in this 31 May 2026 Sunday call-in, tying theology on temptation and free will to how childhood abuse like spanking kills self-empathy and breeds excuses for harm.
