It's DIE HARD on the New York subway! This week we welcome back special guest Jason Bailey (who completes his hat trick of appearances) to discuss THE TAKING OF PELHAM123 (2009)!When a ruthless thief who calls himself Ryder (John Travolta) takes over a New York city subway train and demands a $10 million ransom for the hostages, disgraced MTA official Walter Garber (Denzel Washington) finds himself in the middle of the crisis. Garber must now somehow attempt to negotiate his way through this high stakes situation, which soon becomes even more perilous and political when a suspicious NYPD hostage negotiator (John Turturro) and the slippery Mayor of New York (James Gandolfini) both get personally involved. As the body count rises and tensions increase, Garber finds himself drawn into a strange, almost symbiotic relationship with the unhinged hijacker…and ultimately has to go into the lion's den to confront him personally. While the bulk of this episode is focused on the 2009 Tony Scott remake, inevitably the guys talk extensively about the 1974 original (and even the 1998 TV movie version). Things are starting to come full circle now, as a seventies film that influenced the original 1988 Die Hard is then remade for a post 9/11 landscape…with new Die Hard DNA inevitably added to the mix. The chaps talk about the story's themes (particularly the astute and incisive examination of big city politics), the inherent challenges of remakes, and the excellent, layered acting performances. As always the guys hand out ‘Die Hard Oscars' and wrap things up with a challenging edition of the ‘Double Jeopardy' trivia quiz. TRAILER: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N8TtjRlX_3EAt the time of release, THE TAKING OF PELHAM 123 is streaming on Philo and is available to rent or buy on Amazon Prime Video, Apple TV/iTunes, Fandango and all the usual platforms!

Hillary Clinton is set to testify today regarding the Jeffrey Epstein case, with Bill Clinton scheduled to testify tomorrow. Savannah Guthrie, today's show host, has made another appearance, sharing the news that she believes her mother has passed away, but would still love info about her mom. The State of the Union address once again showcased the president's unique ability to provoke strong reactions in people. Snow removal in New York City was effective in most areas, but residents of Staten Island are reportedly frustrated, feeling their borough did not receive the same level of attention from Mayor Mamdani.  Mark interviews economist Steve Moore. How do some economists maintain their positions despite repeated inaccuracies? Fact-checkers seemed to struggle to verify statements from Trump's State of the Union address. Steve and Mark also discussed the notion that with sufficient tariffs, the income tax might be eliminated. A major reason large TV News networks secure tables at White House parties is the influence of advertisers. Vince McMahon was recently caught speeding in Connecticut, and Mark explains his unusual reaction and reasons for it. Additionally, a Hunter College professor sparked controversy with a comment about race during a Zoom call. MTA chairman Janno Lieber has announced an increase in audio advertisements throughout the subway system. Hillary Clinton is testifying about the Jeffrey Epstein files and claims to have no recollection of any association with Epstein.

When you're married to an alcoholic, it's easy to believe progress only counts if he stops drinking. But your growth matters too.In this episode, we talk about how and why *your* small wins are real signs of healing.You'll learn:Why celebrating small victories builds resilienceHow to stop measuring progress by his behaviorSimple ways to track your growth and build momentumYou don't need a dramatic breakthrough to see change.Small, consistent steps forward still count.

When leads feel inconsistent and results do not match the spend, the problem is rarely effort. The problem is visibility, measurement, and knowing what actually drives growth.In this episode, Jeff Greenfield, CEO of Provalytics, breaks down why so many service-based businesses feel like half their marketing budget is wasted. You hear clear explanations around marketing measurement, attribution, GA4 limits, impressions versus clicks, full-funnel marketing, privacy-driven data loss, AI-driven buyer journeys, and how attention, awareness, and timing impact revenue. The focus stays on fixing what feels broken so your marketing spend works harder.Key takeaways:Clicks do not tell the full story. Last-click attribution hides the real impact of awareness, impressions, and upper-funnel marketing.Attention comes before conversion. You learn how marketing dollars first create attention and awareness before leads.GA4 shows behavior, not influence. Understanding what Google Analytics actually measures helps prevent bad budget decisions.Impressions matter more than most teams think. Tracking impressions over time reveals patterns that clicks alone will never show.Better measurement protects profit. Clear attribution helps you invest in the channels that truly move revenue.Tune in to the full episode of ▶️Why Half Your Marketing Budget Feels Wasted (And How to Fix It) with Jeff Greenfield.Find more podcast episodes on our website: anderscpa.com/learn/podcasts/  Episode resources:●       Anders Virtual CFO by Anders website: anderscpa.com  ●       Love our content?

In this episode of BRAVE COMMERCE, Rachel Tipograph and Sarah Hofstetter sit down with Kate Hamill, VP of North America Enterprise Sales at Pinterest, to unpack how the platform is evolving from an inspiration engine into a more measurable driver of commerce outcomes. Kate shares how Pinterest is compressing the funnel between discovery and conversion, and how brands can think differently about visual-first experiences across the shopping journey.The conversation also dives into why social search is capturing more search budgets, how Pinterest's AI powers proactive discovery, and why modern measurement approaches—including MMM, MTA, and incrementality—matter more than last-click attribution as consumers shop across weeks and devices. From CPG to emerging non-endemic categories, Kate explains how brands can reach consumers earlier in the journey and better understand their impact on growth.Key TakeawaysSocial search plays a critical role in demand creation, not just demand captureVisual search helps brands engage consumers before preferences are fully formedIncrementality and triangulated measurement are essential to understanding impactAI-powered discovery experiences support both inspiration and performance Hosted on Acast.

On Tuesday Feb 3, the state legislature held a public hearing on the transportation portion of the state budget. There was a surprising lack of testimony advocating increased funding for mass transit, though the NYS association for Public Transportation submitted written comments, mainly focused on the underfunding of mass transit update. The State provided $245.5 million in capital aid to non-MTA systems in FY 2025-26. The Executive Budget proposes a reduction to $223.5 million. With aging assets and rising costs, investment must grow to avoid worsening infrastructure conditions. The American Public Transportation Association estimates that you can save over $13,000 annually by using public transit instead of driving. Overall, Unmet transportation needs in New York State center on gaps in rural transit, limited "last-mile" service, and inadequate access for seniors and people with disabilities, particularly for medical and work-related travel. The MTA seemed relatively pleased with its funding, noting that 2025 was the biggest year ever for capital commitments -- $15.8 billion. More than $5 billion of that came from congestion pricing. Other speakers noted that state funding for the passenger rail program is currently smaller than it was during the Pataki Administration. In this segment we hear mainly about safe streets and accessibility issues for individuals with disability. First is Amy Cohen of Families for Safe Streets. Followed by Elizabeth Adams of Transportation Alternatives, Christopher Grief of the ADA Accessibility Transportation Group and Alexandra Mikowski of Access to Independence of Cortland County

David Paterson and guest Jake Novak engage in a wide-ranging dialogue concerning the failing infrastructure and fiscal mismanagement within New York. The conversation begins by addressing how extreme weather events strain the city's budget and social services, which transitions into a broader critique of government accountability and the lack of transparency in public authorities like the MTA. Purposefully contrasting local issues with global ones, Novak highlights the economic benefits of private industry in transportation and examines the geopolitical instability signaled by recent purges within the Chinese military.  Learn more about your ad choices.

We are witnessing the creation of the "obnoxious victim". When a parent rewards a tantrum just to "avoid a scene," they aren't fixing the problem, they are teaching a lesson in manipulation. The child learns that the goal isn't to get what he wants directly, but to provoke a reaction from the person holding him accountable....The child is the Left in Minneapolis.SPONSOR: Lear CapitalThe best way to invest in gold and silver is with Lear Capital.

At Davos 2026, U.S. leaders are calling out the failures of globalization head-on, while Klaus Schwab's old 'Great Reset' and stakeholder capitalism dreams face reality checks. From elite quotes pushing systemic overhauls and compliance tech to today's blunt rejections of top-down globalism, we ask: Has the WEF vision finally collapsed?

Tavaly ilyenkor még repülőrajtot vártunk, most már inkább csak azt, hogy a választásokig valahogy eldöcögünk. De a magyar gazdaság már évek óta a pangás jeleit mutatja, a növekedése elmarad a lehetséges növekedési pályától és a szomszéd országoktól. Miért van ez? És mire számíthatunk az eddigiek alapján? Többek közt ezekről a témákról beszélgettünk Halpern László közgazdásszal, aki az MTA doktora, és tavaly decemberben kapta meg a magyar közgazdaságtudomány fejlődéséhez és nemzetközi elismertségéhez jelentős mértékben hozzájáruló kutatókat jutalmazó Kornai János Életműdíjat, méghozzá elsőként. Bővebben: 00:00:00 - Miért van az, hogy a magyar gazdaság évek óta képtelen a dinamikus növekedésre, és oldalazva fejlődik – ha fejlődik egyáltalán? 00:04:59 - Uniós pénzek: jönnek/nem jönnek. És akkor így fogunk élni? Pozitív üzenet, évtizedes távlatokban. 00:07:38 - Rövid távú kilátásaink. A cseh példa. Mi a gazdaságpolitika feladata úgy egyáltalán? 00:10:16 - A magyar ipar teljesítménye: azért ez nem olyan, mint egy balatoni lángosos. Az észt ész példája és az innováció fontossága. Jó de az állam kiemelten figyel a kkv-szektorra. Bár ne tenné! 00:13:32 - Ha nem elég 100 gyár, építünk 150-et. Mondjuk 100 gyár helyett jobban jártunk volna 100 Skype-szerű innovációval. Nem elég előállítani egy terméket, valamit el is kell tudni adni. Akkugyárcsapda. 00:17:25 - Ne legyünk igazságtalanok: jön hozzánk a Scrub Daddy is. A baj az, hogy a kisebb vállalatok idecsábításával nem kormányzati szinten kéne foglalkozni. 00:19:35 - És dolgozni ki fog? Munkaerőpiac és társadalomfilozófia. Csak a kétkezi munka a munka? Vegyük például az idősgondozást. 00:25:10 - Nincs érdemi munkaerő tartalék. Miért nincs? A foglalkoztatáspolitika leghatékonyabb lépése az lenne, ha a közlekedést sikerülne megoldani. 00:28:45 - Termelésberuházás és fogyasztás. Oké, hogy 10 százalékos béremeléssel dicsekszik a kormány, de ki fogja azt kifizetni? A Münchausen-modellt szabadalmaztatnunk kéne. 00:32:00 - Oké, hogy több van a zsebünkben. De mi van akkor, ha valaki mondjuk Bora Borán költi el a szép magyar fizetését? Ott hány lángost lehet enni? Az albán példa (ez most nem pozitív). 00:34:20 - Önthetik a pénzt az emberek nyakába, de ha mondjuk az exportunk nem csillog-villog, akkor baj lesz. Hogyan lehet ebből kilábalni? Továbbra is évtizedes távlatokban gondolkodunk. 00:39:09 - Jó, de akkor mire számítsunk április 12. után? És mikor fogjuk érezni bárminek a hatását? Az év második felében újra találkozunk! Olvasni- és néznivalók: Halpern László Kornai János életműdíjas előadása az MKE 2025. évi konferenciáján: Vállalatok, termékek, adatok Az Orbán-kormány teljesen elszakadt a valóságtól a 2022-es választás után Most vagy Varga Mihály is „vértiszás” lett, vagy tényleg felelőtlenül szórja a pénzt a kormány Óriási hiánnyal zárta 2025-öt a magyar állam, Nagy Márton még novemberben is elszámolta magát 700 milliárddal Emelkedett az államadósság, pedig Nagy Márton még másfél hónapja is állította, hogy nem így lesz Újfent mélyre zuhant a magyar építőipar novemberben Kilábalás helyett újabb mélypontra zuhant a magyar ipar „A pénzügyi védőpajzs fedősztori volt, valójában valami másról tárgyalhattak Trumppal” Kérdés, kérés, javaslat, meglátás -> dohanygyar@444.hu Hang: Botos Tamás/444, kép: Kiss Bence/444See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

A year after congestion pricing took effect in Manhattan, the political uproar has largely faded even as the tolls remain in place. Traffic is down, transit use is up, and the dire warnings that once surrounded the program have quieted. WNYC transportation reporter Stephen Nessen looks back at how New Yorkers have adjusted, why backlash softened over time, and how the city's experience fits into a global pattern seen in places like Stockholm and London.

The Book Episode: Our Top Reads in 2025 Angie got through a total of 241 books in 2025 (95 fiction and 146 nonfiction)(audio=144, hardcopy=94, ebook=3). Authors We Interviewed on the Podcast Here are the books we featured on the podcast this year. See links to the author interviews. Think Like a Runner by Jeff Horowitz How to Run the Perfect Race by Matt Fitzgerald The Norwegian Method by Brad Culp The Explorer's Gene by Alex Hutchinson Ballistic by Henry Abbott Extreme Balance by Joe DeSena The Runaway Housewives of the Appalachian Trail by Kitty Robinson Fuel for Thought by Renee McGregor Don't Call it a Comeback by Keira D'Amato Lootie's World Run by Marie Leautey The Running Ground by Nicolas Thompson Angie's Top 10 Non-Fiction Reads: The Art of Memoir by Mary Karr Memoir is one of my favorite genres and this book takes a peak behind the scenes on writing an engaging memoir. In fact, Mary Karr weaves in so many personal antidotes that it doesn't feel like a how-to book at all. Some of the core principles she talks about have to do with dealing with the truth as you remember it, turning vulnerability into art, and finding your unique story. Everyone from the causal reader to someone who wants to write a memoir will enjoy this book. Awake by Jen Hatmaker I've followed Jen Hatmakes on Instagram for a number of years and she has a very funny and relatable way of sharing her life. Her latest book is a memoir and talks about the dissolution of her 25 year marriage and how she had to come awake to many important areas in her life as a result. Bad Therapy- Why The Kids aren't Growing Up by Abigail Shrier The author is an investigative journalist who argues that aspects of the mental health industry is harming American children, not helping them but over-diagnosing and over-treating normal struggles. It's important to get children the mental health help that they need but Shrier warns that normal development challenges and emotions are sometimes mislabeled as mental disorders which can lead children to adopt an “illness identity.” It Didn't Start With You -How Inherited Family Trauma Shapes Who We Are and How to End the Cycle by Mark Wolynn This book talks about how trauma and epigenetic are linked. Trauma can change how our genes work and influence stress responses, health, and mood and these alterations can be passed down to future generations, which can help explain intergenerational trauma. This was a very eye opening book and helpful for anyone processing struggles linked to family history. The Marvelous Pigness of Pigs by Joel Salatin Since reading Michael Pollan's book, The Omnivore's Dilemma, I've been working on getting the meat our family eats from ethically sustainable sources. Joel Salatin, owner and operator of Polyface Farms, makes the case for how farming and ranching practices need to change (for the good of the environment, the animals, the farmer, and society in general). Inner Excellence by Jim Murphy This is a book that was first published back in 2009 and was updated in 2020. It has been used by many professional athletes and high achievers to develop a stronger mental and emotional game. NFL player, A.J. Brown of the Philadelphia Eagles, was filmed reading this book on the sidelines of a January 2025 playoff game and the book started selling thousands of copies. Some of the principles in the book that resonated with me were detaching self-worth from outcomes so that your identity isn't tied to results or achievements. Instead of asking, “How did I do?” Ask, “What did I learn.” Another important take-away was learning to gain control over my inner world. We don't have to believe everything our mind tells us. Yes, we should recognize emotions and thoughts but come back to our core values to develop self-mastery. Estrogen Matters -Why Taking Hormones in Menopause Can Improve Women's Well-Being and Lengthen Their Lives- Without Raising the Risk of Breast Cancer (Revised and Updated) by Avrum Bluming and Carol Tavris As a woman in perimenopause I've been educating myself on how to make this transition in life work for me. As a result I started using HRT two years ago and it has improved my life physically, mentally, and emotionally. Thankfully the FDA removed the black box warning on HRT in 2025 after years of misinformation. This book is a must read for women in their mid-30's and up, those who have experienced surgical menopause, or anyone who wants to understand the role of estrogen more completely. From Strength to Strength– Finding Success, Happiness, and Deep Purpose in the Second Half of Life by Arthur C. Brooks Brooks is a Harvard professor and happiness columnist for The Atlantic. He draws on philosophy, social science, biography, and spirituality to offer a helpful roadmap for aging well in the second half of life. In order to embrace, and not fight, the inevitable decline we need to redefine success (moving away from being primarily validated by money or job titles) and look to internal measures like a deeper sense of purpose, wisdom, strong relationships, and service to others. Nuclear War: A Scenario by Annie Jacobson Annie Jacobson is one of those authors from which I will read anything she writes. In the rather bleak (but fascinating) book she lays out the history of nuclear programs throughout the world and presents a scenario in which nuclear weapons are used. Spoiler alert- there are no good outcomes. Breath- The New Science of a Lost Art by James Nestor I've struggled with allergies since childhood, dealing with a lot of nasal congestion. As a result I was a mouth breather and this book challenged me to take a look at my breathing patterns and make some changes. Over the course of a year I trained myself to breathe through my nose during the day (but nighttime was a bigger challenge). A few months ago I started using mouth tape at night (and an airflow clip nasal dilator called Snore Less Now to open up my airway). I've experienced better mouth hygiene and deeper sleep as a result. Honorable Mentions (nonfiction) Hidden Potential by Adam Grant All the Way to the River by Elizabeth Gilbert Slow Productivity by Cal Newport Evidence Not Seen by Darlene Deibler Rose Revenge of The Tipping Point by Malcolm Gladwell The Let Them Theory by Mel Robbins Invisible Women by Caroline Criado Perez Everything is Tuberculosis by John Green You Could Make This Place Beautiful by Maggie Smith The Next Conversation by Jefferson Fisher Angie's Top 10 Fiction Reads: The Grey Wolf by Louise Penny (#19 in the Armand Gamache series) If you enjoy mysteries and thrillers this series is excellent. I've particularly enjoyed listening to them on audiobook since I'm not a French speaker and would probably mispronounce many names and places otherwise. The Life Impossible by Matt Haig I've enjoyed every book that author Matt Haig has written and this one was no exception. The Life Impossible follows a retired math teacher named Grace who is grieving the loss of her husband and son. She receives an unexpected inheritance which forces her outside her comfort zone, helping her to deal with her past and find new purpose for the future. Demon Copperhead by Barbara Kingsolver This book is a modern retelling of Charles Dicken's David Coperfield. It follows a boy named Damon Fields who is born into poverty in modern rural Appalachia. He has a very tumultuous life particularly because of the weakness of the foster care system. The book deals with some very heavy subjects but it's ultimately a story of resilience and the power of finding hope in community and through art. The Burning White by Brent Weeks This is the fifth and final book in the Lightbringer Series, a modern fantasy set in a world governed by light and the magic of Chromaturgy. In this world, some people called drafters have the ability to harness light to create a physical substance called “luxin.” Each color has unique powers and identity and the drafter is changed over time. Red Rising Series by Pierce Brown My teens had read this series a few years ago so I was a bit late to the game. But once I finished the first book, Red Rising, I devoured the other five in this fantasy/sci-fi series and am eagerly waiting for the final book to be released next summer. The series centers on class warfare because of a rigid caste system and the main character gets involved in an attempted revolution. This fast paced series is full of action, violence and is set in space. The Measure by Nikki Erlick In this book everyone who reaches a specific age receives a box revealing their lifespan. The story follows eight people who wrestle with the decision whether to open their boxes or not and what to do with the information they get. Ultimately it's an uplifting book that encourages us to live life to the fullest. Twice by Mitch Albom This is a magical realism novel about a boy named Alfie who discovers that he gets two chances at everything in his life. It's a very engaging storyline (which kept me guessing until the end). It really made me see even more value in imperfection and that growth comes from learning. Marble Hall Murders by Anthony Horowitz This mystery follows freelance editor Susan Ryleland who finds herself unwillingly entangled in the death of an author whose book she is working on. I enjoy a mystery that keeps me guessing. The Loneliness of Sonia and Sunny by Kiran Desai I enjoyed the audiobook version of this book which follows the story of Sonia and Sunny who are both Indian immigrants to the United States who are navigating love, family, country, class, and race. Trevor's Top Reads in 2025: Trevor managed to finish 41 books last year. These ones rose to the top: How the Irish Saved Civilization -The Untold Story of Ireland’s Heroic Role from the Fall of Rome to the Rise of Medieval Europe by Thomas Cahill. Basically, the Irish saved civilization because their monasteries preserved classical texts, learning, and book making after the fall of the Roman Empire. Irish monks later established monasteries on continental Europe which became centers of learning. American Nations -A History of the Eleven Rival Regional Cultures of North America by Colin Woodard. This was a paradigm shaping book, it provides the best explanation for regional differences in the USA. As You Wish -Inconceivable Tales from the Making of The Princess Bride (1987) by Cary Elwes. If you love the movie, listen to the audio book to Cary Elwes and other cast members share behind-the-scenes stories. The Shortest History of Ancient Rome -A Millennium of Western Civilization, from Kingdom to Republic to Empire: A Retelling for Our Times by Ross King. Trevor is a big fan of the Shortest History series because they provide a short overviews without getting too myopic or tedious. Mark Twain by Ron Chernow. This is a 1,200 page tome or 45 hours on audio book. Fun fact! Twain smoked between 22-40 cigars per day. Let’s end with some Mark Twain quotes: “The only way to keep your health is to eat what you don't want, drink what you don't like, and do what you'd druther not.” “Age is an issue of mind over matter. If you don’t mind, it doesn’t matter”. “Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.”  “The man who does not read good books has no advantage over the man who cannot read them”.

He was arrested in September 1969 for participation in a direct action against the Harvard Center for International Affairs and sentenced to two years in prison on charges of conspiracy to commit murder after two bullets were fired through a window of the Cambridge police headquarters on November 8, 1969. He was instrumental in the movement that helped to keep a General Motors assembly plant in Van Nuys, California open for ten years.
