Watch the YouTube version of this episode HEREIn this episode of the Maximum Lawyer Podcast, Tyson Mutrux catches up with Brett Trembly, founder of Get Staffed Up and author of 24 Months to Freedom, to talk about hiring, delegation, offshore teams, AI, and what it really takes to build a law firm that doesn't depend on the owner for everything.Brett shares the moments that made him realize working harder wasn't going to solve the problems in his firm, including trying to manage the business while his daughter was in surgery and working from the beach instead of being present with his family. Tyson and Brett discuss the hiring decisions that helped Brett finally break through that ceiling, why he still believes an executive assistant should be one of a law firm owner's first hires, and the mistakes owners make when they hire someone but fail to properly train them.They also get into the economics of offshore hiring, Get Staffed Up's expansion into paralegal roles, how to measure whether a team member is actually working out, and what AI could mean for intake, legal assistants, and law firm staffing over the next five years. Brett explains why he believes AI will reduce some staffing needs while making the right people significantly more productive.Listen in for a practical conversation about hiring better people, delegating the right work, using AI strategically, and building a law firm that gives you more freedom instead of creating another job.What You'll LearnWhy working harder eventually stops working as a law firm grows.Why Brett believes an executive assistant should be one of your first hires.How offshore hiring can change the economics of growing a legal team.Why hiring someone without properly training them sets both sides up to fail.How KPIs and even your own energy can help determine whether a hire is working.Where Brett believes AI will replace roles and where humans will still matter.Why law firms may need intake managers instead of traditional intake teams in the future.How better systems can help a firm grow without everything depending on the owner.Timestamps00:00 — When your law firm starts taking over your life05:07 — The moment Brett realized he needed to start hiring09:33 — Building a hiring system and finding A-players13:55 — Offshore hiring, costs, and the new paralegal model19:19 — The first hire Brett recommends for law firm owners21:33 — The training mistake law firm owners keep making24:34 — How to know if a team member is actually working out27:27 — The three roles law firms need most28:00 — AI vs. humans and the future of legal staffing32:13 — Maintaining quality while scaling a staffing company36:07 — What law firm teams could look like five years from now38:05 — Tyson's custom case management system40:02 — Get Staffed Up and MaxLawCon 2026Connect with BrettLinkedInBook

This week's Alabama Saltwater Fishing Report covers the late-August transition across the Alabama Gulf Coast, from white marlin and sailfish offshore to mangrove snapper, bridge redfish, wade-fishing trout, white trout, flounder, and improving reef conditions. Butch Thierry is joined by Angelo DePaola, who opens the show with a look at Alabama's growing light-tackle billfish fishery and why September and October could be special months offshore. Capt. Ben Knight of Great Southern Fishing Charters kicks off the reports from Orange Beach, where mangrove snapper have been one of the most consistent late-summer bites around docks, rocks, jetties, bridge structure, and deeper current. He explains why croakers, spots, LYs, and small pogies can outproduce shrimp, and how the same Carolina-rig setup can lead to bonus flounder, redfish, and jack crevalle. Capt. Bobby Abruscato of A-Team Fishing follows with a Mississippi Sound and Dauphin Island report focused on speckled trout, wade fishing, Slick Juniors, popping corks, shrimp activity, white trout, flounder, and redfish. Bobby breaks down why hard bottom, grass, shell, bait, fish slicks, stealth, and boat positioning matter so much this time of year. The episode also includes a sponsor spotlight with Daniel and Ed Bejrowski of Slipski, who talk with Joe Baya about aluminum dock and boat-cover systems built for Gulf Coast conditions. Capt. Kendall Annan of Gulf Rebel Charters closes the show with an offshore report covering red snapper, triggerfish, beeliners, amberjack, grouper, Spanish and king mackerel, cobia, wahoo, dolphin, and tuna prospects, along with what he learns from diving and scouting reefs late in the season.

Matt Dines returns to break down a week of escalating monetary chaos. Scott Bessent doubles the Treasury buyback limit to $4 billion, Stanley Druckenmiller fires a public warning shot in the Wall Street Journal, and the US-Canada trade relationship collapses into 50% tariffs. Matt maps the mechanics behind treasury auctions, yield curve defense, and the offshore dollar's unwind, then connects "Operation Economic Outcast" and Iran's oil smuggling scandal to a broader financial war. Plus tokenized securities, the stalled Clarity Act, the ARMA bill, and what Bitcoin's five-sigma candle actually signaled.

This week's Alabama Saltwater Fishing Report covers late-summer fishing from Louisiana deep-drop jigging to Alabama nearshore snapper, triple tail tagging, swordfish, grouper, and speckled trout. Butch Thierry is joined in studio by Dr. Dylan Kiene, who opens the show with an update on the Gulf-wide cobia and triple tail tagging project, including acoustic tags, satellite tags, reward tags, angler recaptures, and why better movement data can help build stronger fisheries management across state lines. Chris Vecsey of J&M Tackle kicks off the reports with a recap of a Louisiana trip that produced queen snapper, marble grouper, and a true fish-of-a-lifetime Cubera snapper on heavy tackle. He also talks through nearshore red snapper around Perdido Pass, fresh cut bait, overlooked close-to-shore structure, subtle baits for lethargic redfish and trout, hot-water flounder tactics, and why smaller, less invasive presentations can be the key when shallow fish get sluggish in August. Capt. Patric Garmeson of Ugly Fishing follows with a nearshore and inshore report focused on live pogies, gas platforms, red snapper, sharks, triple tail, flounder, and speckled trout. Patric breaks down how he's using pogies on Carolina rigs and slow-sinking presentations around nearshore structure, why bait variety matters from day to day, and how a recent triple tail tagging trip showed just how important bait choice, electronics, and not breaking fish off can be. He also explains why speckled trout have been one of the most reliable bright spots of the summer. Capt. King Marchand closes the fishing side with an offshore report from the Lady Ann, where a slow tuna bite has pushed him toward snapper, triggerfish, deep-drop grouper, beeliners, and swordfish. King explains how reading small anomalies on electronics can make or break a daytime swordfish trip, why he has adjusted his overnight strategy, and how he's targeting yellowedge grouper, snowy grouper, beeliners, and triggerfish when tuna are not cooperating. The episode also includes a safety-focused sponsor conversation with Mitchell Smith of Pike Consulting Group, covering boat safety, Garmin InReach, kill switches, ditch kits, OSHA compliance, worker training, and why small businesses should get ahead of safety issues before they become expensive problems.

U.S. rules around decommissioning offshore oil and gas platforms were rewritten in 2024, but the Trump administration paused their implementation in 2025. Today, we examine the proposed revisions, which aim to reduce regulatory costs without shifting decommissioning liabilities to taxpayers.

The Trump administration announced in June that it is considering issuing a lease to allow mineral mining off the Eastern Shore.

What's really holding your law firm back isn't a lack of leads—it's how you spend your time and handle the ones you already have. In this episode, you'll learn how smart hiring, offshore staffing, and a professional intake process can free you from $10-an-hour tasks and unlock real, sustainable growth.   In this episode, Steve Fretzin and Brett Trembly discuss: Mindset shift from saving to spending for growth Early-stage law firm struggles and first key hires Offshore staffing in Latin America and founding Get Staffed Up Broken intake systems and the client's first experience with a firm Delegation, KPIs, and freeing managing partners from billable work   Key Takeaways: Clinging to a “safe” bank balance before hiring often traps owners in low-value tasks and slows growth dramatically. Hiring support—especially before you feel fully ready—is usually the only way to stop doing admin work and start focusing on higher-value activities. Law firms frequently don't need more marketing; they need to fix intake and conversion so leads actually become clients. A professional, structured intake process signals competence, builds trust, and can transform the client's experience from chaotic to “white glove.” Using KPIs, scorecards, and results-focused metrics is more effective than obsessing over every minute your remote or salaried team members work.   "Doing all the little things yourself prevents you from ever building up your money." — Brett Trembly   Check out my new show, Be That Lawyer Coaches Corner, and get the strategies I use with my clients to win more business and love your career again.   Join the Be That Lawyer Community and connect with ambitious lawyers who are serious about growing their book of business, strengthening their brand, and becoming confident, consistent rainmakers.   Ready to go from good to GOAT in your legal marketing game?

Allen covers a judge lifting the Pentagon’s wind freeze, RWE’s $1.22B US offshore exit, and TotalEnergies buying Shell’s European renewables.

When one door closes … another one opens. Well this week in wind energy … a whole lot of doors were swinging. Let us start in Washington. For months … the Pentagon had quietly stopped reviewing wind energy project applications. More than a hundred and fifty onshore wind projects … stuck in limbo. The Defense Department claimed that drones in Ukraine had changed the game. Wind turbines … they said … could blind radar to incoming threats. So they hit the brakes. But on Thursday … a federal judge said … not so fast. Judge Karin Immergut … a Trump appointee no less … issued a preliminary injunction. Resume the reviews … she ordered. Follow the law Congress wrote. The law gives the Pentagon seventy-five days for a preliminary review. As of late July … not a single one had been completed since the halt began in May. When government lawyers were asked to name one project they had reviewed … they could not name a single one. The judge told them plainly. If you want to change the rules … go ask Congress. Now … while one arm of the government was being told to do its job … another arm was writing checks. German energy giant RWE … handed back its American offshore wind leases. New York. California. Louisiana. In return … the U.S. Department of the Interior cut RWE a check for one-point-two-two billion dollars. RWE is the fifth developer to walk away from American offshore wind under this administration. The company had spent more than a billion dollars on those leases. Years of planning. Investment. Partnership with federal agencies. But RWE said there is simply no path forward to permit these projects … for the foreseeable future. So where does the $1.22B go? Nine hundred million dollars into Louisiana LNG. Three hundred million into natural gas turbine reservations. Fifteen gas peaking projects across the country. A company that came to America to build wind farms … is now building gas plants instead. But here is the thing about RWE. They are not leaving the wind business. They are leaving American offshore wind. Globally … RWE operates eighteen offshore wind farms. Four more under construction. And nearly seven gigawatts secured in the United Kingdom’s latest auction. America said no. The rest of the world said … come on in. And speaking of Europe … TotalEnergies … the French oil major … just bought Shell’s entire onshore renewables business in Europe. Four gigawatts of solar and wind. Five hundred megawatts already running or under construction in Italy and the Netherlands. Three-and-a-half gigawatts more in the pipeline across Italy … the United Kingdom … and Spain. And in the same breath … TotalEnergies sold a fifty percent stake in a one-point-two gigawatt European portfolio to KKR … for an enterprise value of one-point-eight billion euros. Build it. Sell half. Keep operating it. That is the model. Now let us fly east … to India. GE Vernova just landed a hundred-and-sixty-three megawatt wind order from American developer Enfinity Global. Forty-three turbines. Three-point-eight megawatts each. Headed for the Fatehgarh wind farm in Rajasthan. Deliveries start late this year. And those turbines will be built at GE Vernova’s factory in Pune … which can turn out fifteen hundred megawatts a year. India is pushing for five hundred gigawatts of renewable energy. Meanwhile … up in Denmark … a Danish wind tower maker named Welcon is raising its voice. Swedish utility Vattenfall just won two offshore wind tenders in Denmark. But when asked whether they would use European-made turbines … Vattenfall would not say. Welcon’s chief executive Jens Risvig Pedersen said … and I quote … “It would be completely absurd not to buy European products for the two new Danish offshore wind farms. That would simply shut down the European industry.” The Danish trade union Dansk Metal agreed. Chinese turbines … they said … should not be financed with Danish taxpayer money. Vattenfall says it has not decided yet. But the debate is on. And finally … a milestone that happened so quietly … nobody noticed. The world just crossed three terawatts of installed solar power. It took ten years to build the first terawatt. Less than three years for the second. And not even two more years for the third. Seventy-four countries now have at least one gigawatt of solar installed. That is up from forty-two in twenty-twenty. BloombergNEF expects nine terawatts by twenty thirty-six. But here is the catch. Without batteries … solar hits a ceiling. Places like Australia and California already have so much solar that electricity prices go negative during the day. You heard that right. They pay people to use power. The answer is battery storage. But batteries are not able to keep up with the pace of solar. Now … if you step back from all of this … something interesting emerges. Nobody in these stories is arguing about whether wind works. Not the judge in Oregon. Not RWE. Not even the Pentagon. The debate has moved on. The question is no longer … can you build a wind farm. The question is … who gets to decide where one goes. Think about that. A federal judge did not rule that wind turbines are safe or good or necessary. She ruled that the government cannot ignore its own laws. The science was not on trial. The process was. RWE did not surrender its leases because offshore wind failed. It surrendered them because one government made permitting impossible … while eighteen other wind farms in its global portfolio kept spinning. And TotalEnergies did not buy four gigawatts of European renewables out of charity. It bought them because Shell … an oil company … decided those assets no longer fit its strategy. One oil major’s exit is another’s entrance. The assets did not lose value. They changed hands. That is the story underneath all these headlines. Wind energy has crossed a threshold that most industries never reach. It is no longer competing on technology. It is competing on governance. The turbines work. The economics work. The engineering works. What varies … country by country … is whether the rules of the road are clear enough for capital to show up. And capital … as we saw this week … will always find the door that is open. That is the state of the wind industry for the 10th of August … twenty twenty-six. Join us for the Uptime Wind Energy podcast tomorrow.

While many local manufacturers have been driven offshore by rising costs and cheap imports, Sydney condiment brand Three Threes is digging its heels in to keep its production grounded in Australia. Despite facing heavy taxes and minimal tariffs on imported competitors, fourth-generation owner Michael McAlpine says moving manufacturing overseas was never an option. "I couldn't ever.

Published 9 August 2026This is a brilliant episode, one you will want to share with every teacher and parent you know. If you are neither of those, you will enjoy it the way I did, just imagining how much fun school could have been. We were joined by Malcolm Page CEO Australian Sailing and Jess Lundh, former Australian Sailing Team member who is also an Environmental Scientist and certified teacher. We talk SailLAB, a free STEM education program that uses sailing to teach science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) in Australian schools. It is very interesting and relatable episode even if you are designing Americas Cup boats for your job.

This week's Alabama Saltwater Fishing Report covers improving late-summer conditions along the Alabama Gulf Coast after weeks of dirty water, west wind, weak tides, and unsettled weather. Butch Thierry opens the show with a look at the better forecast ahead, including lighter winds, clearing water, stronger tidal movement, and a more typical August pattern that should help fishing rebound from the recent tropical shakeup. David Thornton, The Pier Pounder, kicks things off with a detailed surf and pier report, explaining how sandbars, troughs, cuts, water clarity, jellyfish, wind direction, tide timing, and post-storm beach changes all affect where and how shore anglers should fish. He also talks through Spanish mackerel, hardtails, ladyfish, pompano, whiting, speckled trout, flounder, bull reds, jack crevalle, and why anglers should stay opportunistic when the primary target species are not cooperating. Capt. Kendall Annan of Gulf Rebel Charters follows with an offshore and nearshore report from Orange Beach, where snapper, red grouper, mahi, king mackerel, Spanish mackerel, bonita, and other species are all in play. Kendall breaks down how he chooses where to fish based on trip length, boat traffic, weather, current, water color, bait, thermoclines, trolling opportunities, and what happened the day before. He also shares practical bottom-fishing tips on holding over structure, using current to position baits, and knowing when to be patient versus when to make a move. To close it out, Capt. Shane Traylor of Bona Fide Inshore checks in with a strong inshore report built around flounder, puppy drum, triple tail, redfish, black drum, and speckled trout. Shane explains why live bait has been important, how he's targeting flounder around hard structure, why puppy drum are holding near rocks and concrete, and how triple tail have been showing up around free-floating debris and buoys. The episode wraps with a practical look at how the fishery is trending as water clears, wind settles down, and anglers get another good late-summer window to fish.

This week we had the privilege of hosting Leif Johan Sevland, President and CEO of the Offshore Northern Seas Foundation (ONS), for a Special Edition. Leif is a Norwegian business leader and former politician with a distinguished career spanning public service and the energy sector. Prior to joining ONS, Leif served as the Mayor of Stavanger from 2005 to 2011. The ONS 2026 Conference is fast approaching, taking place from August 24–27 in Stavanger, Norway. The conference is held biennially and attracts 70,000+ global industry leaders representing over 1,100 companies and 35+ countries. We were honored to host Leif to preview this year's conference, its major themes, and the trends shaping Norway's, Europe's and the world's energy landscape. In our conversation, Leif shared a preview of what attendees can expect at ONS 2026 and how this year's conference theme, Courage, is intended to challenge industry leaders to move beyond discussion and embrace decisive action in addressing the world's evolving energy needs. We explore Norway's unique position as both a leading oil and gas producer and an energy innovator, discussing how energy security, affordability, technological innovation, and shifting geopolitical dynamics are reshaping energy markets, investment priorities, and policy around the world. We examine Europe's evolving innovation ecosystem, the accelerating adoption of AI and its growing impact on power demand, renewed interest in nuclear energy, and the convergence of energy, defense, and industrial technologies. Leif emphasizes the importance of open dialogue, global collaboration, and developing the next generation of industry leaders, and shares how ONS brings together policymakers, operators, investors, entrepreneurs, and innovators to exchange ideas and help shape the future of energy. The Veriten team will be at ONS, participating in a few panels, and connecting with good friends and with some of our partner and portfolio companies that will also be in attendance. Mike Bradley started off the discussion by noting that two key market themes remained in place: lower oil prices and stronger equity markets. The 10-year Treasury yield remained range-bound, showing little directional movement. On the equity market front, the Dow Jones Industrial Average was up ~500 to 600 points on the day, with gains driven primarily by Amgen, Caterpillar, and Goldman Sachs. On the oil market front, downward pressure on crude prices continued, with WTI falling by approximately $1/bbl to around $75/bbl. The decline was driven largely by market optimism that the temporary pause in U.S. military strikes on Iran would remain in place. He noted, however, that oil prices appear increasingly oversold from a technical perspective, having declined roughly $10 to $15/bbl over the past one to two weeks. As a result, crude prices could rebound sharply should the current military pause end or geopolitical tensions re-escalate. He concluded by highlighting key takeaways from Saudi Aramco's 2Q earnings call, noting that management delivered a decidedly bullish message on the outlook for global oil markets. According to Aramco, oil markets are far tighter than many indicators/prices suggest. Aramco noted that global markets lost ~11mmbpd of supply because of the conflict and shipping disruptions; strategic reserve releases and inventory drawdowns have masked the true extent of the shortage; inventory data understates physical market tightness; global inventories have been heavily depleted and must now be rebuilt over several years; and it would take around 18 months and roughly 2.1mmbpd of incremental demand just to restore inventories to pre-conflict levels if conditions normalize immediately. We were fortunate to also have Veriten Venture Partner Karl Liapunov join and share his insights throughout the discussion. Karl is the founder of Starting Cold and is the U.S. Ecosystem Partner at Startuplab, where he previously served as Head of Energy & Climate Tech in Oslo.

This month on the Off Shore Tackle podcast, a conversation with walleye tournament angler Tyler Berthold. Tyler and his crew recently won the LEWT stop out of Erie, PA while trolling Off Shore boards in 70 feet of water. Berthold describes targeting those fish on structure and working through a large number of walleye to find the tournament winning fish. He also gives his thoughts on lead core vs steel or copper line, the "dual spring" set up for Tattle Flags and the decision whether to cast or troll. The discussion wraps up with Tyler describing a fifteen pound fish that won a recent Fall Brawl Lake Erie event.  

De directie van de Duitse Commerzbank bleef het maar proberen: de cijfers opkrikken om weerbaar te blijven tegen een vijandige overname. Nou, het opkrikken van die cijfers, dat is gelukt. Commerzbank gaat bovendien door met het inkopen van eigen aandelen. Maar het verzet tegen de overname, dat wordt nu toch gestaakt. De top van Commerzbank is in gesprek met Unicredit, bevestigen ze vandaag. We maken de balans op en onderzoeken of de bank nu sterker is geworden door deze vijandige overname, of niet. Over overnames gesproken: de kogel lijkt bijna door de kerk bij Easyjet. De Amerikaanse investeringsmaatschappijen Castlelake en Apollo waren in een biedingenstrijd verwikkeld. Maar die eerste trekt zijn bod nu in, waardoor die tweede er met de winst vandoor lijkt te gaan. Toch houden beleggers nog een slag om de arm. Waarom? Ook dat gaan we bespreken. . En je hoort over een broekie op de AEX: SBM Offshore. Dat wordt de hemel in geprezen na goeie cijfers en een nog betere outlook. Of het bedrijf een blijvertje is aan de AEX, hoor je ook in deze aflevering.

Join Dennis Voznesenski, Agriculture and Sustainability Economist at Commonwealth Bank, for this week's Agri Commodity Update - where Black Sea disruption, improving northern hemisphere supply and softer global demand collide with Australian farmgate prices. This week, Dennis unpacks why wheat prices fell as harvest supply outweighed repeated attacks on Black Sea export infrastructure, why Australian APW1 prices followed offshore futures lower and how forecast southern rainfall is improving local crop prospects. He also breaks down canola's decline from improved Canadian crop conditions, weaker soybeans, softer oil-markets and a firmer Australian dollar. He then turns to cattle markets where tight US supply remains supportive, but limited inland rainfall, rising yardings and weaker Chinese and US beef-market signals are putting downward pressure on prices.   Disclaimer:    Important Information   This podcast is approved and distributed by Global Economic & Markets Research (“GEMR”), a business division of the Commonwealth Bank of Australia ABN 48 123 123 124 AFSL 234945 (“the Bank”).  Before listening to this podcast, you are advised to read the full GEMR disclaimers, which can be found at www.commbankresearch.com.au.   No Reliance  This podcast is not investment research and nor does it purport to make any recommendations.

In this episode of The Wrap with Chris Whalen, Chris joins Julia La Roche to argue that Kevin Warsh has a credibility problem: he's holding rates, avoiding confrontation with a divided board, and saying almost nothing, while the bond market does the tightening for him with the ten-year near 4.7% and mortgages headed toward seven-plus. Whalen's prescription is blunt — take back last year's cuts with two quarter-point hikes, consider a surprise August move, raise margin requirements, and keep shrinking the balance sheet, because Treasury is the dog and the Fed is barely the tail. From there the conversation ranges across a coming diesel and fertilizer shortage nobody in Washington will discuss, gold's role as real money in Asia versus a paper price in the West, and Whalen's own portfolio, from Annaly and Rhythm Capital to Flagstar and roughly a fifth in precious metals. The back half turns spicy with Tom Gober's new guest post on life insurers: private-credit-controlled annuity writers reinsuring liabilities offshore without posting enough assets behind them, hidden by state secrecy laws and rubber-stamped by ratings agencies that were never working for you.

This week's Alabama Saltwater Fishing Report recaps the Alabama Deep Sea Fishing Rodeo with Capt. Tanner Deas, Capt. Branden Collier, and Dr. Dylan Kiene. The roundtable covers a huge weekend of inshore, offshore, and live-release fishing, including Branden and Tanner's 101-flounder day, tough Saturday inshore conditions, and how low oxygen, nip tides, jubilees, wind-blown banks, and water stratification may have affected the bite. Dr. Dylan Kiene brings the fisheries-science perspective from the judge's table, breaking down the speckled trout, flounder, redfish, and live-weigh-in categories, including the success of the new live triple tail category and the value of tagging healthy fish for future research. The crew also talks through the Gulf-wide cobia and triple tail tagging project, acoustic tags, high-dollar reward tags, and what anglers should do if they catch a tagged fish. Offshore, Capt. Branden Collier explains how he targeted big red snapper and mangrove snapper with heavy tackle, big live baits, strong drag, and structure-focused fishing during one of the Gulf Coast's biggest fishing weekends.

At the beginning of 2022, Europe was sourcing around 40% of its gas from Russia. By the end of this year, no more gas should be flowing from Russia into Europe.  Much of that shortfall has been replaced by production from the vast oil and gas fields of Norway's North Sea continental shelf. And this year, the closure of the Strait of Hormuz again highlighted the importance of Norway to Europe's resilience. But how does one of the world's largest oil and gas producers balance energy security with the race to net zero? This week, Michael Liebreich is joined by Anders Opedal, CEO of Equinor, Norway's state-backed energy company. Having spent almost three decades at the company, Anders discusses Equinor's strategy for producing lower-emissions oil and gas while investing heavily in offshore wind, carbon capture and storage, and the technologies needed for the energy transition.  They also explore the impact of fugitive methane emissions, the realities of carbon capture, the economics of offshore wind, and why Norway believes it can continue supplying oil and gas for decades to come. Topics covered: How Russia disrupted European gas supplies Meeting Europe's gas demand The Strait of Hormuz and energy prices Tax, financing and investment Equinor's partnership with Shell Carbon capture and storage (CCS) Can the UK replicate Norway's success?  Offshore wind development Reducing methane emissions and gas flaring Leadership Circle: Cleaning Up is proud to be supported by its Leadership Circle.

Victoria is undertaking one of Australia's most ambitious electricity transitions. The state is aiming for 65% renewable electricity by 2030 and 95% by 2035, replacing ageing coal-fired power stations with renewable electricity, batteries and offshore wind while keeping the lights on and consumers' bills down. This week on Cleaning Up's Deep Dive Australia, Michael Liebreich is joined by Lily D'Ambrosio, Victoria's Minister for Climate Action, Energy and the State Electricity Commission, who has overseen the state's energy transition for more than a decade. Together Minister D'Ambrosio and Michael examine the policies driving the transition, from renewable energy auctions and large-scale batteries, to offshore wind and transmission planning. Michael also challenges the Minister on some of the most controversial aspects of Victoria's strategy, including unpublished modelling, coal closure agreements, and the politics of moving households away from gas. Topics: Victoria's energy transition and the role of state governments Replacing coal with renewables Batteries, electricity markets and falling wholesale prices Coal plant closures and investor certainty Transparency, modelling and political accountability Transmission, community opposition and Renewable Energy Zones Offshore wind and the future generation mix Gas, household electrification and cost of living Leadership, public confidence and delivering the transition Leadership Circle: Cleaning Up is proud to be supported by its Leadership Circle.

In this week's Northwest Florida Fishing Report, host Joe Baya covers mid-summer fishing from Destin to Panama City, where clean beach water, strong pompano action, long offshore runs, and an outstanding swordfish bite are defining the season. This episode features Blake Hunter with Reel30A and Capt. Adam Peeples with One Shot Charters. Blake Hunter starts with the surf report, where summertime pompano continue to exceed expectations along the 30A corridor. He explains how higher salinity water, afternoon sea breezes, and sargassum along the troughs are concentrating fish, while also sharing tips for finding sand fleas, fishing wobble jigs, and targeting pompano from the beach with both live bait and artificials. Capt. Adam Peeples wraps up with an offshore report from Destin, where blue water has pushed more than 100 miles offshore, forcing long runs to find sailfish, blackfin tuna, and blue marlin. Despite the distance, the swordfish bite has been exceptional, with multiple double-digit bite days. Adam also discusses locating productive temperature breaks, choosing fresh bonita for bait, and adapting to constantly changing offshore conditions.

The Miami Herald reports that Jeffrey Epstein's obscure U.S. Virgin Islands offshore bank, Southern Country International, suddenly became active in 2019 after years of dormancy, moving tens of millions of dollars shortly before and after his arrest and death. The bank reportedly had no employees, held under $500,000 for years, and then processed more than $20 million between April and early July 2019. After Epstein died in federal custody on August 10, 2019, another $25 million moved through the bank, including funds from unknown sources. Investigators later examined a $15 million transfer from Epstein's Deutsche Bank account to Southern Country the day after his death, but the FBI closed the wire-fraud probe four years later without publicly explaining why.The story also lays out how Epstein obtained the offshore banking license in the first place, despite being a registered sex offender, and how Virgin Islands officials gave the bank unusual treatment, including waiving a requirement that it employ at least three people. The Herald notes that the bank may have been used in ways that violated territorial rules, because Southern Country was supposed to do business only with non-Virgin Islands people or companies, yet large transfers involved Epstein's Southern Trust Company, which was based in the territory. Compliance officers at traditional banks later flagged suspicious activity, with TD Bank reportedly saying some account funding appeared designed to disguise Epstein as the source of the money. The result is another unanswered Epstein money trail: a bank created in a friendly offshore jurisdiction, largely dormant for years, suddenly moving huge sums around the exact moment the walls were closing in.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Questions surround Epstein's USVI offshore bank activity | Miami Herald

Talent is everywhere. And limiting your hiring pool to your local area can cost you serious leverage. In this episode of The Level Up Podcast, Paul Alex breaks down how hiring overseas can help lean startups build stronger teams, reduce costs, and operate with global efficiency. Let's be real… If you only hire within twenty miles of your zip code… You may be paying a premium for proximity… Not performance. The best operator for the role may not live in your city. They may be halfway across the world. In this episode, you'll learn: Why competence has no borders How global talent can protect your profit margins Why systems matter more than time zones How offshore teams can create faster execution and around-the-clock progress The truth is simple: You do not build a great offshore team by hoping it works. You build it with systems. Clear communication. Documented processes. Video training. Strong expectations. And a management structure that makes execution simple from anywhere. High-level founders do not overpay for proximity when the role can be done globally. They find the best talent. They build the playbook. They manage the process. And they create a machine that keeps moving even while they sleep. Stop limiting your team to your local market. Build the systems. Hire globally. Multiply your output. And keep leveling up.
