00:00 – Intro & Banter DJz and Griffin open with a lighthearted “yo” exchange before diving into the day's topic: the November Arc Launch. 02:30 – Outpost Overview & Patch Notes DJz confirms the new Outpost Exchange Material Refinery and material generators—now offering three upgrade brackets instead of two. 05:00 – Material Generators & Scaling Discussion of G5–G7 sourcing, how early-tier players benefit immediately, and why high-tier (G7) players face longer roads. 06:45 – Outpost Fleet Slots Correction DJz admits his earlier info was off: the fourth ship slot won't arrive this month, only two at level 1 and a third unlocked at level 40. 08:30 – Upgrade Value & Player Expectations They predict most players will reach levels 15–20 early, with strong emphasis on the building's buffs and resource bonuses. 09:50 – How Retaliation Targets Work Explaining the new “retaliation target” type—distinct from hostiles or armadas. Only generic officers (e.g., Khan, Nero, Gorkon) will work. 11:00 – Crewing Strategies & Classic Combos Old-school crews like Kirk/Spock/Yuki resurface. Voyager crews, strike teams, and others won't trigger their abilities here. 12:45 – Outpost Mechanics Explained Players use two ships to seize an outpost, then defend it from 72 retaliation waves (five minutes apart) over about five hours. 16:00 – Passive vs. Active Gameplay The defense runs automatically—no need to trigger waves manually. Buffs can be activated mid-battle for stat boosts or mining bonuses. 19:00 – Buff Currency & Strategy Rewards go directly to inventory, not cargo. Players can bank currency for future runs to maximize buffs on the next outpost. 22:00 – Outpost Buff Types & Factions Each target faction (Cardassian, Borg, Node) offers unique buff categories—PvE, utility, and PvP respectively. 25:00 – Leaving or Losing Outposts Leaving ends your buffs immediately. Arena transfers or incursions also break outpost control; the veil and territories are safe. 29:00 – Start Timer Change & QA Notes Community discovers a 3-minute start timer instead of 1; DJz says it adds strategy but invites more PvP risk. Griffin reports a live bug: Away Teams are currently broken. 30:30 – Officer Discussion: Nog Nog's debut ties to his father Rom's legacy. DJz praises the lore while admitting limited gameplay utility unless base-raiding improves. 33:40 – Officer Discussion: The Hierarch Introduces “Carol Freeman 2.0?”—potentially a PvP counter, though effectiveness depends on high tiers. Artwork and narrative praised. 38:30 – New Max Ship XP Button (QoL Update) They test the new instant-max feature: convenient for scrapping but risky for free-to-play players due to auto-Latinum use. 44:50 – Who Benefits Most from Max-All Ideal for heavy spenders; free players must be cautious. Some want sliders added for smaller upgrades during events. 45:50 – Weekly Mission Rollouts & Bug Fixes Missions release weekly this arc; Scopely claims to fix veil recall daily bug and arena entry issue. 47:30 – Mid-Ops Experience Announcement Wardaddy returns to discuss a new mid-ops battle pass later this week, expanding mid-tier gameplay. 49:00 – Chaos Tech Review They dissect “Particle Synthesis” (loot and mining boosts) and “Biomimetic Gel” (PvP buffs). DJz clarifies the math—impressive numbers but balanced impact. 53:40 – New Primes for Outposts Three new primes enhance solo outpost assault, output, and retaliation rewards—though DJz warns their longevity is uncertain. 55:40 – Wrap-Up & Closing Remarks DJz and Griffin summarize the arc, thank listeners, and tease in-game lab testing later that night.

I was about to title this episode "How I'm Actually Feeling About AI Right Now", because honestly? It's not all sunshine and robots over here.Look, you know me. I'm the AI girl. I teach it, I use it, I've built entire systems around it. But lately? Some stuff happening in the AI space is giving me the ick. And in some cases, I'm like... have we completely lost the plot?I'm still team AI—don't get me wrong. This tech has changed everything for entrepreneurs. It's opened up massive opportunities, saved me countless hours, helped me tighten up systems, create better content, and run a stronger company. But here's the thing: not everything coming out of this so-called "AI revolution" is smart. Not all of it is going to grow your business in the right way.So I'm flipping the mic on and getting real about a couple things that aren't sitting right with me. And honestly? I think you might agree.We're building personal brand businesses in this weird new AI-saturated world, and we need to be smart about it. Because your edge isn't in how many automations you have—your edge is YOU. Your stories, your opinions, your energy. That's what can't be replicated, even by a really good AI twin.What You'll Learn:Why AI twins and digital clones are giving me major ick (and why they might be killing your personal brand instead of building it)The problem with AI-generated podcasts and why they'll make your audience tune out fastHow to use AI to amplify yourself without replacing the human connection your audience cravesWhy you don't need to keep up with every single AI development (and how it's actually holding you back)The one thing that will always be your competitive edge as a personal brand entrepreneurHow to zig when everyone else zags—and why "ugly content" might be your secret weaponMy challenge to you: how to lean MORE into being human in your business, not lessResources Mentioned:The Personality Manifesto (FREE): https://gemmabonhamcarter.com/personalityYour Next Steps:Work with Me: https://www.gemmabonhamcarter.com/programsWhat I Use to Run My 7-Figure Business: https://gemmabonhamcarter.com/toolsConnect on Social: https://www.instagram.com/gemma.bonhamcarter Support the show

What if we stopped investing like bystanders and started investing like owners and “neighbors” in the story of our finances?When you invest like an owner, our portfolios can reflect faithful stewardship and create real-world impact. Robin John joins us today to share practical ways to move from passive investing to purposeful ownership.Robin John is co-founder and Chief Executive Officer at Eventide Asset Management, an underwriter of Faith & Finance. He's also the author of the book, The Good Investor: How Your Work Can Confront Injustice, Love Your Neighbor, and Bring Healing to the World.Investing vs. SpeculatingMany people confuse investing with speculating. Speculating—like day trading—is often no different than gambling. It's focused on short-term gains, trying to predict what the market will do tomorrow. But investing is about ownership. When you buy a stock, you're buying a piece of a company. You become a co-owner.That means your money is participating in real work—serving customers, employing people, and creating products that impact lives. As Christians, we should invest in companies we believe are doing good for the world, not just generating profits.Speculation is reactive and anxious. Investing, when done faithfully, allows us to rest in the knowledge that our capital is working toward purposes aligned with God's design for flourishing.The Responsibility of OwnershipOwnership changes everything. It confers ethical responsibility.If you owned a neighborhood store, you'd care deeply about how it serves your community, treats employees, and impacts the environment. In the same way, being a shareholder means you share in both the profits and the moral implications of what that company does.That's why Eventide Asset Management believes that Christians must think like owners, not traders. Ownership means engaging thoughtfully with the companies we invest in—voting proxies, engaging in dialogue with management, and ensuring that our capital is stewarded with integrity. Our investing isn't just about earning; it's about embodying our faith in the marketplace.Why Passive Investing Deserves a Closer LookIn recent years, many investors have turned to index funds or “passive” strategies. While these offer simplicity and diversification, I believe we should pause and ask: What are we actually owning?As Christians, we can't do anything passively—not even investing. Romans 12:2 calls us to avoid conforming to the patterns of this world, to renew our minds, and to discern what is good. That means we can't blindly invest in every company just because it's part of a market index.Do we really want to profit from industries like pornography, abortion, gambling, or tobacco? Our calling is to pursue good profits—profits that come from serving others and honoring God.To meet that need, Eventide has created systematic ETFs—investment funds that provide broad market exposure while intentionally excluding harmful industries. They're designed for believers who want to participate in the market without compromising biblical conviction.The Neighbor Map: Loving People Through InvestingIn his book, The Good Investor, Robin shares something he calls the Neighbor Map—a framework that helps us see all the “neighbors” affected by a business.God's command to “love your neighbor as yourself” (Leviticus 19) isn't abstract. It applies to the business world. At Eventide, they have identified six key neighbors every company should serve:Customers – Are the company's products truly good for those who use them?Employees – Are they treated with dignity, fairness, and care?Suppliers – Are business relationships ethical and respectful?Communities – Does the company create meaningful jobs and contribute positively to local life?The Environment – Is creation being stewarded well? Caring for creation is one of the most direct ways to love the poor, because it's the poor who suffer most from pollution and neglect.Society – Is the company contributing to the flourishing of the broader culture?Faithful investing isn't only about avoiding harm—it's also about embracing good. When we invest in companies that love their neighbors well, we participate in God's ongoing work of restoration.As investors, we're not distant spectators. We're partners. At Eventide, they engage directly with the companies we invest in—raising concerns, asking hard questions, and encouraging leadership to act with wisdom and compassion.Their goal isn't confrontation—it's collaboration. Whether it's addressing supply chain ethics, employee safety, or corporate philanthropy, we approach these conversations as co-owners who want to see good companies become even better.Clarity for Every Christian InvestorMany believers are unaware of what their money supports. That's why the team at Eventide created GoodInvestor.com—a free tool that allows you to screen your portfolio and see exactly what you're investing in. You can also connect with advisors who understand faith-based investing and can help you align your portfolio with your convictions.We hope that Christians everywhere would invest with joy, clarity, and confidence—knowing that their capital is serving God's purposes in the world. When we invest, we're not just moving money—we're shaping the world. Every dollar we deploy carries moral and spiritual weight.Our prayer is that more believers would see investing as a form of worship—a way to love God and neighbor through the stewardship of capital. Together, we can build a world that rejoices, where profits are good, people are valued, and creation is honored.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:Back in 2010, my parents set up a life estate warranty deed for their home, adding my siblings and me to the deed. My mom passed away eight years ago, and my dad passed in December 2024. We're preparing to sell the house now, but I keep hearing that we need to use a “life expectancy table” to calculate the home's value for capital gains or losses. Can you explain how that works and what steps we'll need to take for the taxes?I've saved up three months' worth of income—about $2,300 in total—and I still owe around $500 on a HELOC and another $500 on a credit card with interest rates of about 7% and 8.9%. My question is: Should I treat my savings separately from my three-month emergency fund? For example, if something unexpected happens—like a car repair—I don't want to touch my emergency fund. Is there a certain percentage or guideline for how much should be in an emergency fund versus regular savings?Resources Mentioned:Faithful Steward: FaithFi's New Quarterly Magazine (Become a FaithFi Partner)The Good Investor: How Your Work Can Confront Injustice, Love Your Neighbor, and Bring Healing to the World by Robin C.

In this episode, I welcome back my good friend and legendary note investor, Eddie Speed.

The Dad Edge Podcast (formerly The Good Dad Project Podcast)
In this Dad Edge Podcast episode, I'm joined by my son Ethan for a powerful father-son conversation about money, mistakes, and mindsets. But this episode goes way beyond budgeting tips. It's about the deeper fear, pressure, and responsibility men feel when it comes to providing and preparing the next generation. We explore everything from cost of living fears to smart saving habits, early investing, and the emotional rollercoaster of becoming financially independent. Ethan shares candid reflections about what worries him most as a 19-year-old and the surprising movie that inspired his money mindset. This episode is filled with laughs, lessons, and the kind of intentional parenting that creates legacy.

He's a father of six, a business owner of five, and a living example of legacy over luxury. Together, Jim and Tim unpack how health drives wealth, how mentorship multiplies impact, and how faith anchors it all. What You'll Learn: The mindset shift: Balance isn't found—it's built through intentional structure. The personal breakthrough: When your family sees your mission, they stop saying “Dad's gone” and start saying “Dad's out building.” The Strategy: How Tim Uses Seven Synced Calendars and Daily Restoration Routines (Training, Fasting, Sauna) to Stay Sharp in Business and at Home. The story: From bodybuilding and bankruptcy to owning global nutrition brands and mentoring his former employees into partners. The energy principle: Why taking care of your health is the most profitable business decision you'll ever make. Action Steps: 1. Map Your Horizon & Cashflow Decide your hold period (5–10+ years) and set a monthly cashflow target that makes you work-optional. 2. Run SAFE on Your Next Deal Vet the Sponsor first, then Asset, Financials, and Exit. If any letter fails, pass and keep your powder dry. 3. Choose Your Lane Active: commit to learning, mistakes, and reps. Passive: piggyback a proven operator's network (fund-of-funds, co-GP) to diversify now.

Jim Bianco, president of Bianco Research, returns to The Julia La Roche Show for episode 297 for an in-studio appearance. Bianco argues the Fed is making a policy error by cutting rates when financial markets are at all-time highs across the board—stocks, gold, bonds, M2, and home prices. He explains that job creation has slowed from 158,000 to 29,000 per month not because the economy is weak, but because immigration has essentially stopped, reducing population growth to an 80-year low—meaning 29,000 jobs may actually be appropriate. Bianco warns that cutting rates in this environment risks recreating inflation through two key channels: tariffs (average rates up 6x to 17-18%) and remote work (giving labor more power to demand higher wages). He sees dangerous concentration in AI stocks (41 companies representing 47% of S&P 500 market cap) reminiscent of late-1990s bubble dynamics, with aggressive retail buying and passive flows creating mispricing that could end badly when the "buy the dip" mentality finally breaks.This episode is sponsored by Monetary Metals.

What You'll Learn: Why real estate is Jaspreet's favorite income-producing asset and how to start without $200K The “house hack” strategy to live rent-free and still build equity How dividend stocks and ETFs can pay you just for holding shares The biggest mistake people make chasing high dividend yields Why lending money to the government (yes, really) can create low-effort income Jaspreet's ABB rule to start stacking cash flow every single month This is how the wealthy replace their salary with streams.

Ever wondered how someone could make half their annual photography income in just one week? That's exactly what happened to Megan O'Hare when she ran her first strategic Black Friday promotion.In this episode, I'm sitting down with Megan O'Hare, the powerhouse behind The Photo Project—a course that teaches moms how to organize their digital photo chaos. We're diving deep into how Megan went from making around $7,000 on her first attempt at a Black Friday sale to crushing it with $51,000 the following year using my Black Friday in a Box strategy. She's pulling back the curtain on exactly how she structures her promotions, why her done-for-you service sells out twice a year, and how she's built a business model that allows her to barely touch social media while still growing her email list and revenue consistently.This conversation is packed with strategy gold, including why Megan limits her high-ticket one-to-one offers to just two sale periods per year, how she's made certain products available ONLY during Black Friday (talk about built-in urgency!), and why 95% of her done-for-you clients are people who already bought her course but decided they'd rather just have her do it.What you'll learn:How Megan went from $7K to $51K in Black Friday sales by implementing a strategic promotion planThe exact structure of her 5-day Black Friday sale and why limiting availability creates massive demandWhy her done-for-you service clients are almost always previous course buyers (and what that means for YOUR business model)How she runs a summer sale using the same Black Friday strategy for an additional revenue boostHer approach to making certain products available ONLY during promotional periods to drive urgencyWhy lead generation ads are her "cost of doing business" and how she thinks about ROI differentlyThe truth about her email marketing strategy (spoiler: it's not perfect, and that's okay)How she's structured pricing for her done-for-you service to avoid awkward money conversationsResources Mentioned in this episode:Black Friday in a Box: https://gemmabonhamcarter.com/black-friday The Photo Project: https://thephotoproject.co/ Megan O'Hare on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/oharephotos/ Your Next Steps:Work with Me: https://www.gemmabonhamcarter.com/programsWhat I Use to Run My 7-Figure Business: https://gemmabonhamcarter.com/toolsConnect on Social: https://www.instagram.com/gemma.bonhamcarter Support the show

He also reveals his surprisingly simple, high-performing investment criteria that can beat the market, arguing that for the everyday person, stocks are a far more logical and transparent path than the "gambling" nature of unknown cryptocurrencies BEST MOMENTS "I truly, truly believe the world as it's progressed over the last couple hundred years has been taken control of by a select few who have a lot of power. I would say the financial system of the world is rigged." "The fund's goal isn't the same as your goal... The motive of the fund is to make the most money out of you and just make sure you're satisfied enough to not leave." "I totally agree with that concept... Passive income is possible, but you have to do the work and set up the asset first... People have got the wrong definition of what passive income is."

Withholding kindness. Flirtatious subtleties.They all seem small, but over time they corrode trust, respect, and intimacy.In this episode, I unpack how each of these habits starts, why they're so destructive, and how to replace them with humility, clarity, and intentional love — in marriage, in leadership, and in life.What I Cover:The danger of comparing your spouse (or your peers)How passive aggression poisons communicationWhy withholding small acts of kindness erodes joyHow seemingly harmless interactions can cross hidden lines

EPISODE 742: (with Christine Schiefer of "And That's Why We Drink) This Halloween, something spooky this way swaps. In this very special Paraween Host Snatchers edition of The Box of Oddities, Kat is joined by the delightfully haunted Christine Schiefer of And That's Why We Drink—because JG has mysteriously vanished (probably abducted by science or a mothman, TBD). Together, Kat and Christine unpack the glowing enigma of the Brown Mountain Lights—the unexplained orbs that have haunted Appalachia for over a century. Are they ghosts? Aliens? Passive-aggressive lovers stuck in a centuries-long spat? Or just bioluminescent squirrels playing god? We explore all the theories—ball lightning, swamp gas, folklore, fungal rave dust—and somehow make room for 1913 dental ads and an impromptu John Denver roast. Whether you're a fan of high strangeness, ghost lore, or just want to hear Christine and Kat lose it over the phrase “globular form,” this crossover episode is a Halloween-season must-listen.

I am SO pumped to share this episode with you because it's proof that the strategies I teach actually work in the real world.My student Stephanie Kase just pulled back the curtain on how she made $20,013 during Black Friday 2024 using my Black Friday in a Box strategy. And she documented EVERYTHING.We're talking about a woman who doubled her previous year's Black Friday results without massive audience growth. She went from making her typical $4-6K flash sales to hitting a goal that honestly seemed ambitious when she set it.What I love most about Stephanie's approach is that she didn't just follow my strategy blindly - she adapted it, tested it, and made it work for her business.

Guy Adami and Danny Moses discuss a variety of topics impacting the stock market and economy. They start by drawing parallels between the current market situation and past events, such as the late '90s dot-com bubble and the 2008 financial crisis. They highlight the rise of AI and its resemblance to the internet boom, expressing concerns over vendor financing and unsustainable company valuations. The conversation shifts to the potential impact of a weakening U.S. dollar and the significant role of gold, as central banks accumulate it to hedge against economic instability. They also touch on the fragility of the Japanese yen and its economic implications. Passive investing's influence on market behavior is examined, and the potential for sectors like healthcare and energy to offer value is discussed. The episode concludes with an analysis of current trends in sports gambling markets and NFL game predictions. —FOLLOW USYouTube: @RiskReversalMediaInstagram: @riskreversalmediaTwitter: @RiskReversalLinkedIn: RiskReversal Media

On this week's episode of Best Ever Show, Ash and Amanda interview Ian Noble. Ian shares how fourteen years of running a family dry cleaning business led to burnout, a brutal COVID revenue collapse, and the realization that passion and systems matter more than social media hype about “boring businesses.” He explains his pivot to real estate as both an LP and fund-to-funds syndicator, why he favors low-risk private lending and mobile home parks, and how he structures deals so investors get equal or better terms than going direct. Ian and the hosts dig into operator due diligence, red flags like wild equity multiples, the realities of depreciation benefits, and why walking every property and backing only trusted teams is non-negotiable.
