I was set to do the longest hike I've ever done solo the day after this sunset. As I was sitting here I was looking at the trail maps (as I do hundreds of times before a big effort) and freaking myself out. I realized, "Oh I'll be hiking behind the mountains in the distance BEFORE the sun rises tomorrow." GULP. Nervousness elevated. I got to to the trail head the next morning and it was so dark I spent an hour getting the courage to begin. An intense morning. Hahahahaha. I did it tho! 37 mile hike in just under 11 hours on the California Riding and Hiking Trail in JTNP. A trail I've been stalking for years. I'm proud :) The video for this episode is available on...Youtube - http://www.youtube.com/@JinaSeerSpotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/2QVHsoLED5BZdHu5uMSG0s?si=jUnbXB6zTfqA2QUopImbKg//  SUBSCRIBE + LEARN MORE  // ⁠SeerSessions.com⁠ and ⁠SeerSessions.com/subscribe⁠ to get on my email list.

In today's Cloud Wars Minute, I reveal how Palantir leapfrogged the competition with 63% cloud growth, shaking up the Cloud Wars Top 10.Highlights00:14 — Periodically, I do an update on what I call the Cloud Wars Growth Chart. The latest list shows that Palantir — new to the Cloud Wars Top 10 — is number one in fastest growth, by a long shot. Google Cloud, which for the last six quarters had been the fastest growing, is now in the number two spot. Oracle comes in at number three.01:06 — So let's see here: Palantir — look at this — 63% growth to $1.12 billion. Previous quarter growth rate: 48%. Pretty nice when you can go from 48% to 63% in a market like this. So the question is: What is Palantir doing that has allowed them to grow at these dramatically higher growth rates?02:05 — Number two, Google Cloud. 34% growth to $15.2 billion. That's an acceleration from the previous quarter's 32% growth. The third: Oracle. 28% growth, $7.2 billion in cloud revenue — up from 27%. SAP grew 27% in Q3, $6.14 billion. Previously 28%. Then Microsoft grew 26% in cloud revenue to $49.1 billion for the quarter, down from the previous quarter's growth rate of 27%.03:07 — We saw growth throughout the Cloud Wars Top 10. Six of the nine that report their cloud revenue said that they are seeing accelerating growth from one quarter ago to their most recent quarter. So six out of nine growth rates going up, even as they're getting bigger. Now the outlier there is IBM, which does not break out its cloud revenue.03:47 — The other big thing I see coming along is that we are moving into a place now where it's becoming fuzzy between cloud and AI. Because cloud, after all, is the delivery vehicle that has made AI now something accessible to every individual in the world.04:40 — So, we see these sort of intertwined, bonded pairs of cloud and AI. It's been fascinating to watch this. And these growth rates show the market is getting hotter. These companies are growing faster — for the most part — remarkable. So, hats off to Palantir, Google Cloud, Oracle, and all the others on this list. Visit Cloud Wars for more.

Adriana Kugler broke the central bank's rules regarding stock trading, according to a report released by the U.S. Government Ethics Office. - Now we know why she abruptly resigned a few months ago - That disclosure shows two kinds of violations of Fed rules regarding financial transactions by senior officials at the central bank: purchases of stocks of individual companies, as opposed to mutual funds; and purchases of securities during so-called “blackout periods” leading up to and after Federal Open Market Committee meetings. - Oh - Supposedly her husband did it - but come on! - Fed losing more credibility - this is not the first time.... StampFlation - The Postal Service filed notice with the Postal Regulatory Commission for Shipping Services price changes to take effect Jan. 18, 2026. The proposed adjustments were approved by the governors of USPS this week. - The change would raise prices approximately 6.6 percent for Priority Mail service, 5.1 percent for Priority Mail Express service, 7.8 percent for USPS Ground Advantage and 6.0 percent for Parcel Select. BIG - Michael Burry, the investor whose successful bets against the U.S. housing market in 2008 were recounted in the movie "The Big Short," is closing his hedge fund, Scion Asset Management. - In a letter to investors dated October 27, a copy of which was seen by Reuters, Burry said he would liquidate the funds and return capital, "but for a small audit/tax holdback" by the end of the year. - "My estimation of value in securities is not now, and has not been for some time, in sync with the markets," Burry said in the letter. - Put on a big OPTIONS short on NVDA and PLTR - We checked and his Registration expired..

How Does This Work? - House Republicans drafting legislation that will redirect Affordable Care Act subsidies to individuals and away from health insurance companies, according to Politico Some Eco ...?? - Employment Situation for September 2025 that was supposed to be released on Friday, October 3, 2025, will now be release  Thursday, November 20, 2025 8:30 AM ET - What about October? White House says it may NEVER be released Hindenburg Omen - There was some excitement in the world of technical analysis the past two weeks as we saw 5 separate signals fire for something called the Hindenburg Omen. This is a warning signal of trouble, but trouble does not always come. What is fair to say is that Hindenburg Omen signals have appeared at every major stock market top going back several decades. - According to Tom McClellan: The current count of 5 signals is not as big as some other clusters. But we got 4 signals in a cluster at the end of 2021, ahead of the 2022 bear market. So 4 is enough, if the market is inclined to live up to this warning. And 2 signals were enough back in December 2024 and March 2025 to tell us about the trouble in the market which unfolded in the April 2025 tariff reaction minicrash. But 5 is better.

Your Scorpio Superpower is a Deep Knowing of  Truth.Journeying around the zodiac with each new moon offers  specific guidance for  life and Soul direction.As a fixed sign, Scorpio symbolizes the conserving of emotional energy. This sign specializes in searching for the depth in whatever is not obvious.Looking inward and gaining an understanding of what is meaningful and worthwhile is essential. In terms of merging in an intimate way, there's the need to reach out and move toward others. This connection is most comfortably done on a one to one emotional level.Scorpio depicts the archetypes of the Scorpion and the Eagle, as well as being described in mythical literature as the “Phoenix bird”.  Each symbol offers a meaning that presents a level of inner awareness and consciousness.This sign is associated with the subject of “depth/archetypal psychology”.  The root or archetypal theme is about penetrating into the inner realm of the “Psyche”/Soul.  It requires a willingness to use the intuitive, emotional feeling and sensing capacity to navigate through life experiences. Scorpio is not well understood because it operates, in great part, from the psycho-spiritual realm.  The need to perceive the inner workings through the emotions, and soul experiences requires reference to the non-ordinary states of being.Scorpio is feminine water sign, meaning that it acts from a receptive activation. Most interesting though. is its guidance and rulership  as well as co-rulership with Mars and Pluto.  As 2026 moves forward into our collective consciousness,  this  watery, intuitive Scorpio connection is preparing all who are willing, to undertake a personal journey through this empowering lunar cycle.  One of the keys to using Scorpio energy is being willing to investigate yourself from the inside out.  Move into deep exploration of what feels beautiful, artful, creative and what aspects of your life you really value.Let those creative expressions come forth.Give yourself major self care through rest and relaxation.This Lunar cycle provides deep self understanding using the sign of Scorpio as an inner “Mirror”.  Decide now to face what is not You, as you Stand and Face the Intention to plant and grow something new and worthy of the new you. Let's have an Astrology Conversation. I look forward to seeing you. Now is the time.https://www.soulsoundinsights.com/light-reading.htmlhttps://www.soulsoundinsights.com/music-musings-meditation.htmlI am proud to announce my new offering as a Certified Creative Depth Coach.

In today's Cloud Wars Minute, I explore how tech rivals are becoming collaborators to better serve customer innovation.Highlights00:43 — I call SAP and Snowflake's recent announcement a promiscuous partnership that's powerful and promising. I'll try not to trip over too many more P's here, but I think the point of this is we're seeing the promiscuous side: big tech companies that, you know, were very selective about how they worked with each other in the past.01:04 — I think now we're seeing that there are great advantages toward them aligning in ways — working together to do things for customers that neither could do individually. I think the ultimate example of this is the Oracle multicloud deals with Microsoft, Google Cloud, and AWS. So, in this case here, now we see both SAP and Snowflake are in the data cloud space.02:04 — This could have been a situation where SAP and Snowflake might have said: "I have a Data Cloud. You have one. We're going to compete" — but the result would be — “We're going to make customers' lives more miserable, because to work with both the SAP Data Cloud and the Snowflake Data Cloud, those customers are going to have to find workarounds and ways to integrate and all that.” Instead, they said, “Let's try to do this together.”03:00 — Some highlights: it accelerates customer innovation because they can spend more time focusing on business innovation, growth, and new business models, rather than a lot of expense on integration. The two companies, Snowflake and SAP, have intertwined their brands, which I think reveals to customers a very powerful commitment. This solution is called SAP Snowflake.03:55 — The AI revolution has put all sorts of new and interesting, challenging stresses on customers, right? And on the Cloud Wars Top 10 vendors: it can't just be business as usual for customers. The tech vendors have to operate differently — not just in the products they create but in the alliances they strike.04:46 — I tip my hat to Snowflake and SAP, and I think we're going to be seeing lots more of these promiscuous partnerships break out as the needs of the AI Revolution require customers to do things differently — which, in turn, compels the Cloud Wars Top 10 companies to behave in different ways.

Andrea Morgan talks about her career journey; the similarities between supply chain & astrophysics, innovation, and why women need to bloom where they land.   IN THIS EPISODE WE DISCUSS:   [03.37] Andrea's degree in astrophysics, and why curiosity was her biggest driver. "I had a deep interest in the origins of the universe… It gave me the training to ask the right questions." [5.14] How a post-graduate placement at IBM exposed Andrea to a range of business areas, and ignited a passion for supply chain. "I learned that I didn't want to be a researcher, I liked being with people… Quickly I started to specialize in supply chain, I was drawn by the nature of the problems we were trying to solve." [07.20] From the emergence of the cloud to transformation at scale, Andrea's experience at Oracle during pivotal years in the adoption and expansion of new technology. [10.09] Andrea's role in digital transformation at Nike and what we can learn, from the alignment of business strategy and vision to the importance of metrics and measurement. "The biggest thing is putting the concept behind product management at the centre of that digital transformation… You can't do transformation for transformations sake." [15.56] Andrea's current role at Blue Yonder as Chief Innovation Officer, what the role entails, and how it has evolved. [19.15] What innovation means to Andrea, and where the industry is when it comes to innovation. "For me, innovation at its core is: 'How do you do things differently?'" [21.03] Andrea's perspective on AI, and how they're thinking about agentic AI at Blue Yonder. "The ones that aren't successful are the ones that aren't focused on deep domain expertise. Where we're going with agentic is not just the general knowledge, but really understanding the specifics of supply chain." "It's important to get started, because we know it's coming. So you might as well try it out, and see the value you could get along the way." [24.58] Andrea's experience as a woman in male-dominated spaces. [26.49] Why a rising tide lifts all boats, and why women need to support collective growth and empowerment. [29.44] Why Andrea wants to encourage women to bloom where they land, even when the circumstances aren't ideal. "It's not always about the destination, it's about the journey." [32.25] What being an industry 'trailblazer' means to Andrea, and how others can follow in her footsteps. [34.02] The future for Andrea.   RESOURCES AND LINKS MENTIONED:   You can connect with Andrea over on LinkedIn.

Bryce breaks the Oracle, Hunt gets called Orion, and somehow we still find time to drag Sabine and confess Melissa thought Egypt was in Europe. In this episode we're diving into Crescent City chapters 31–40: Micah's super sketch boss moves, Hunt's doomed(?) Orion mythology parallels, the Oracle's terrifying warning about Bryce, murder maps on the ley lines, Luna's Horn theories, and why the Godslayer gun has us deeply concerned. We also spiral about human revolutionaries, fantasy husbands who don't read fast enough, and how this all might tie into bigger SJM crossovers.

In this Technology Reseller News, Podcast, Doug Green interviews Don Boxley, CEO and Co-Founder of DH2i, for a deep dive into one of the biggest challenges facing IT teams today: the migration gap between legacy Windows-based SQL Server deployments and the containerized, Linux-driven future that modern applications increasingly require. DH2i, a long-time Microsoft and Red Hat partner, delivers high availability, secure communication, and cross-platform mobility for SQL Server, Oracle, and MySQL environments. Their flagship platform, DX Enterprise, enables customers to run the same production-grade SQL instance across Windows, Linux, and Kubernetes — and move between them with seamless failover. As Boxley explains, this eliminates the traditional roadblocks that keep enterprises locked into aging infrastructure. With SQL Server 2025 bringing new support for AI-driven applications, Microsoft tapped DH2i to deliver mission-critical HA capabilities for these next-generation workloads. The company also introduced a hands-on, step-by-step Minikube tutorial, allowing DBAs and MSPs to experiment safely with Kubernetes-based SQL deployments on their own PCs before ever touching production. “Most teams think they're stuck on Windows — they're not. With DX Enterprise, you can move SQL Server to Linux or containers without disruption, and your customers won't even know the difference,” Boxley notes. DH2i's developer edition is available as a free download, complete with 30-day support, giving IT teams a no-risk path to testing, learning, and modernizing their database infrastructure.

Continuum is solving the multi-party return problem in B2B supply chain—a transaction involving distributors, manufacturers, and end users that previously took 30-45 days and now completes in 30-45 seconds. In this episode of Category Visionaries, we sat down with Alex Witcpalek, CEO and Founder of Continuum, to unpack how he's building what he calls "reverse EDI" in a market of 1.5 million distribution and manufacturing companies across North America. After 13 years selling technology into this space, Alex is now growing 8x year-over-year by turning customers into the primary acquisition channel through network effects. Topics Discussed: Why multi-party returns require replicating order management, warehouse management, and procurement systems simultaneously The tactical sequencing of building network businesses: solving for independent value, achieving critical mass, then activating network effects How Continuum navigates deep ERP integrations (SAP, Oracle, NetSuite, Epicor) plus bespoke business logic across multiple supply chain tiers Facebook retargeting, BDR outbound, events, and customer referrals as the four channels driving growth in a non-PLG market Why business model differentiation is the only remaining moat when technical barriers collapse Building domain expertise distribution systems using AI-powered LMS fed by sales call recordings GTM Lessons For B2B Founders: Choose problems where you can capture 100% of addressable market, not fractional share: Alex deliberately avoided competing in CRM, sales order automation, or accounts payable—categories where even dominant players cap at 25-30% market penetration. Instead, he targeted multi-party reverse logistics, a greenfield problem no one else was solving. This strategic choice eliminates competitive displacement risk and allows every prospect conversation to focus on change management rather than competitive differentiation. Founders should map their TAM against competitive saturation: markets where you can own the entire category create fundamentally different growth trajectories than fighting for fragments. Sequence network businesses: independent value → critical mass → network activation: Alex was told by investors 18 months in that network effects "weren't going to work." His insight: "When you don't have a network, you don't sell the network. It's just in your plans and how you're building." Continuum sold P&L impact, manual labor reduction, and customer experience improvements to early adopters while building network infrastructure invisibly. Only after achieving density in specific verticals (HVAC, electrical, plumbing) did they surface the network value proposition. This sequencing prevents the cold-start problem—founders building marketplace or network businesses must design standalone value that makes the first 100 customers successful independent of network density. Exploit high pain thresholds in legacy industries as competitive barriers: Supply chain companies accept 30-45 day return cycles, manual warranty claims on paper, and playing "guess who" by phone to find inventory across distributor branches. Alex notes they have "extremely high pain threshold" from living with broken systems for decades. While this creates longer education cycles, it also means competitors won't enter (too hard) and once you prove ROI, switching costs become prohibitive. Founders should reframe customer inertia: industries tolerating obvious inefficiencies offer category creation opportunities with built-in moats, not just sales friction. Business model architecture is the only defensible moat—technical differentiation is dead: Alex is building his own e-signature platform (Continue Sign) and AI LMS using vibe coding to prove technical moats no longer exist. Continuum's defensibility comes entirely from network lock-in: displacing them requires disconnecting manufacturers like Carrier, Daikin, and Bosch plus their entire distributor ecosystems simultaneously. He references EDI (1960s technology still dominant today) as proof that network effects create permanent advantages. Founders must architect switching costs, network density, or proprietary data advantages into their business model—technology alone provides zero protection in the AI era. Match channel strategy to actual ICP behavior, not SaaS conventions: Continuum's top lead source is customer-driven network growth—distributors recruiting manufacturers and vice versa. Facebook retargeting works because their 50+ year-old supply chain buyers "are trying to comment on their grandkids' pictures," not scrolling LinkedIn. BDR outbound still delivers high win rates in an industry where business happens on handshakes, making events critical. This channel mix would fail for PLG products but works perfectly for enterprise cycles with $40K ACVs and 90-day sales processes. Founders should ethnographically research where their specific buyers actually spend attention rather than defaulting to LinkedIn, content marketing, or PLG based on what works in adjacent categories. Use 90-day enterprise cycles and multi-stakeholder complexity as qualification, not friction: Continuum runs enterprise sales motions for $40K deals because multi-party returns touch 16 constituents across sales, customer service, fleet, supply chain, warehouse, purchasing, and finance. Rather than trying to simplify buying, Alex uses this complexity as a filter—companies willing to coordinate VP of Supply Chain, COO, and CFO alignment are serious buyers. He layers three value propositions (P&L impact, labor reduction, customer experience) knowing different stakeholders weight them differently. Founders selling into complex environments should embrace multi-threading as a qualification mechanism that improves win rates and reduces churn, not overhead to eliminate. //  Sponsors:  Front Lines — We help B2B tech companies launch, manage, and grow podcasts that drive demand, awareness, and thought leadership. www.FrontLines.io The Global Talent Co. — We help tech startups find, vet, hire, pay, and retain amazing marketing talent that costs 50-70% less than the US & Europe. www.GlobalTalent.co // Don't Miss: New Podcast Series — How I Hire  Senior GTM leaders share the tactical hiring frameworks they use to build winning revenue teams.

Laurence Fishburne (John Wick: Chapter 4, Apocalypse Now) again commands the screen as Morpheus, facing the possibility that the prophecy may not be what it seemed. Hugo Weaving (V for Vendetta, Lord of the Rings) delivers a chilling final performance as Agent Smith, whose viral replication threatens to consume the entire Matrix.

In this week's Macro Mondays, Lisa Aziz joins James Brodie and James Todd to break down the key macro trends shaping global markets. With US data delayed after the government shutdown, early indicators point to rising recession risk, weaker labour markets, and falling consumer confidence.AI stocks face renewed volatility as major tech names correct sharply, while Japan's yields surge and China continues to slow. Commodities stay mixed—gold and copper hold firm, oil trades in a tight range, and Bitcoin slips into a bear trend as whale selling accelerates.Key highlights include:✅ 88% of Americans now living in states in recession✅ US foreclosures up 20%; subprime auto delinquencies worst in 30 years✅ China industrial production & investment disappoint✅ UK unemployment rises to 5%; growth slips to 0.1%✅ AI stocks unwind: Oracle –36%, Tesla –15%, CoreWeave –37%✅ Japanese bond yields break to multi-decade highs✅ Dollar-yen breaks out on fears of Japanese credit risk✅ Precious metals spike but broad commodity supercycle unlikely✅ Copper & uranium driven by AI-linked power demand✅ Bitcoin enters bear market; volatility accelerates✅ Central banks: Fed cut odds fall below 50% due to missing data

Sometimes, early success can fool you into thinking you've built the perfect business. That's what happened to Danny Kirk, who launched a software-as-a-service company right after finishing a music degree. He and his co-founder found a great niche, landed a $4,500 sale on a $300 MVP, and took off fast. The catch? Neither of them could actually build the product beyond that first version. They were great at selling and marketing but never filled their technical gap — and that's what cost them. Five years later, they sold the business, while a competitor in the same space sold to Oracle for $200 million. Same idea, different outcome. Here's what Danny learned: Find your missing piece early. Whether it's a technical co-founder, a contractor, or even AI tools to bridge the gap, make sure every critical skill is covered before you scale. Build a team that makes you uncomfortable. The best collaborators are the ones who spot problems you don't want to see and tell you the truth, even when it stings. Reward people who speak up. Create systems or incentives that encourage team members to flag issues — big or small — before they turn into disasters. As Danny put it, success isn't about doing everything yourself. It's about knowing what you can't do,  and finding the right people (or tools) to fill that gap. About Danny Kirk Danny Kirk is a classically trained trumpet player, turned entrepreneur and small business owner. He's started and grown multiple companies over the past decade, and now does growth marketing at ReddiReach for startups and SMBs, 500+ and counting.  Learn more: https://www.linkedin.com/in/danielpkirk/  https://reddireach.com/   Let's make this a conversation.   Leave a comment or voice message with a question, marketing tip or idea for an upcoming show.

In this week's episode of WSJ's Take On the Week, co-hosts Gunjan Banerji and Telis Demos discuss the lingering economic impact of the U.S. government shutdown and why a lack of crucial inflation and jobs data is making the outlook murky for the Federal Reserve. Next, Nvidia is set to report its third-quarter earnings this week. And Morgan Stanley estimates that only half of the roughly $3 trillion in global data center spending through 2028 could be funded by projected cash flows. So how are tech companies going to fund the rest?  Then after the break, Telis is joined by Guy LeBas, chief fixed income strategist at wealth management and investment banking firm Janney Montgomery Scott, to explore how the AI revolution will be financed. Oracle, Meta and Google parent Alphabet have made bond offerings valued in the tens of billions. LeBas explains that the trillions needed to help fund data centers will force tech hyperscalers to issue massive new debt, potentially increasing the size of the corporate bond market by 20% a year. And he talks about whether the AI bubble could find its way into the bond market. This is WSJ's Take On the Week where co-hosts Gunjan Banerji, lead writer for Live Markets, and Telis Demos, Heard on the Street's banking and money columnist, cut through the noise and dive into markets, the economy and finance—the big trades, key players and business news ahead. As we look ahead to 2026, what major economic, markets or finance question is top of mind for you? We'd love to hear from you. Email the show at takeontheweek@wsj.com.

Tara Erickson & Aaron Alexander react to The Matrix Revolutions (2003), the explosive and visually ambitious finale of the Wachowskis' groundbreaking cyberpunk trilogy. Blending philosophy, war-scale action, and mind-bending sci-fi concepts, the third film brings Neo's journey toward destiny and sacrifice to its emotional conclusion. Keanu Reeves (John Wick, Speed) returns as Neo, fighting to save both the human world and the digital Matrix from annihilation. Carrie-Anne Moss (Memento, Jessica Jones) reprises her role as Trinity, whose bond with Neo anchors the trilogy's emotional core. Laurence Fishburne (John Wick: Chapter 4, Apocalypse Now) again commands the screen as Morpheus, facing the possibility that the prophecy may not be what it seemed. Hugo Weaving (V for Vendetta, Lord of the Rings) delivers a chilling final performance as Agent Smith, whose viral replication threatens to consume the entire Matrix. Key supporting performances include Jada Pinkett Smith (Set It Off, Gotham) as the fearless pilot Niobe, Mary Alice (The Matrix Revolutions, The Oracle) as The Oracle, Ian Bliss as the menacing Bane, and Harry Lennix (Man of Steel, The Blacklist) as Commander Lock.

It's a good target to do any legal signing or contracts. As we don't fear retrogrades, we live life, we can't always plan when these things need to happen. Have a good week

Join Jim and Greg for the Friday 3 Martini Lunch as they dig into President Trump reducing several key tariffs, Megyn Kelly's confounding comments about Jeffrey Epstein, and Sen. John Fetterman how criticism he gets from the left is far worse than what he hears from the right. First, they welcome President Trump's decision to lower tariffs on coffee, bananas, and other major imports from four Latin American nations. Jim sees this as a quiet admission that tariffs have been driving up prices. They also hope this signals a broader push to ease the cost of living in this country. Next, parents may want the kids out of the room for this segment. Jim and Greg react to Megyn Kelly saying a source close to the Jeffrey Epstein case believes Epstein was not technically a pedophile because he preferred "barely legal" girls around fifteen years old instead of pre-pubescent victims. Jim and Greg are horrified by multiple aspects of her statement and discuss the Trump administration's terrible handling of this issue.Finally, they highlight Pennsylvania Sen. John Fetterman saying there is no comparison between the vitriol he receives from the right and the left. Fetterman says angry Republicans call him names, while the left openly wishes for his death.

Today, we cover the very ugly day for US equity markets, with the selling quite broad, but most concentrated in AI-related and crypto-related names as the latter is in a real funk and suggests poor liquidity.

Also, we look to next Wednesday's Nvidia earnings report as the next critical event risk for this market, noting other big retail names reporting in the US as well, including Walmart.

Join Jim and Greg for the Thursday 3 Martini Lunch as they celebrate the end of a pointless government shutdown, blast United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres for trying to silence free speech online, and recoil at how shockingly bad college students have become at math.First, Jim and Greg applaud the House vote to end the government shutdown, rip Democrats for their six weeks of incoherent grandstanding, and look ahead to late January when this may happen all over again.Next, they unload on Secretary-General Guterres for claiming online “disinformation and misinformation” are poisoning discourse and insisting that tech companies have a responsibility to crack down on speech that supposedly distorts the facts. Guterres says this speech he doesn't like is hampering the UN's ability to enact its climate agenda. Well, that's a shame. Jim not only defends free speech but points out that the UN should not be involved in this debate at all.Finally, they shudder as college professors warn that incoming students are much worse at math than ever before. One study finds fewer than 20 percent can handle middle school–level math, and many struggle with even the most basic concepts. Jim and Greg consider how so many young adults made it to college so poorly prepared.Please visit our great sponsors:Get 10% off your first month of BetterHelp by visiting https://BetterHelp.com/3ML today!OneSkin uses the patented OS-01 Peptide™ designed to keep skin healthier, stronger, and more resilient over time.

What does it really take to launch a big idea? One that can change your career, business, or even the world? Is being a visionary enough, or is there a hidden formula for success? Guest Jen Kem says it's all about building the right "unicorn team." But here's the twist: even if you're a solopreneur or running a small business—like me—this book is still for you. Jen's framework isn't about having a massive team; it's about understanding the roles and energies you bring to your work and how to fill in the gaps to achieve success faster and with less burnout.Jen is a brand strategist, entrepreneur, and author of Unicorn Team: The Nine Leadership Types You Need to Launch Your Big Ideas with Speed and Success. With a career working on iconic initiatives for companies like Microsoft, Coca-Cola, and Oracle, she's now revealing how big ideas succeed—not just through visionaries, but through the right mix of leaders who execute and get results.We'll learn how to identify your own leadership type, how even a solo effort can become a "team" by leveraging the right resources, and hear the inspiring story of how a small team at Moderna outpaced industry giants to lead the charge on a life-saving vaccine.

Join Jim and Greg for the Wednesday 3 Martini Lunch as they weigh in on EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin blasting Gov. Gavin Newsom and Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass for their incompetence concerning the California wildfires, housing officials repeating the mistakes that led to the 2008 financial crisis, and Michigan's “Mamdani” trying to erase his radical record.First, they applaud Zeldin for imploring Newsom and Bass to get to work to help people rebuild after the wildfires. Jim notes that less than one percent of those who lost homes or businesses have received permits to rebuild, even after nearly a year. They also consider how this glaring failure could hurt Newsom's presidential ambitions.Next, they facepalm as Fannie Mae removes a minimum credit score needed to be approved for housing loans. Yes, buying a home is really tough for a lot of people right now, but Jim and Greg recall how giving mortgages to people who clearly could not afford them led to economic disaster just 17 years ago.Finally, they highlight Michigan Democratic Senate candidate Abu El-Sayed deleting past anti-police and anti-border agent posts in an attempt to hide his radical views. El-Sayed once called police “standing armies we deploy against our own people” and smeared border agents as “white supremacists.” El-Sayed is very competitive in a three-candidate race for the party's nomination.Please visit our great sponsors:Get 10% off your first month of BetterHelp by visiting https://BetterHelp.com/3ML today!OneSkin uses the patented OS-01 Peptide™ designed to keep skin healthier, stronger, and more resilient over time.
