HEADLINE: China's Economic Slowdown, Deflation, and the Spectre of Japanification GUEST NAME: Andrew Collier SUMMARY: Andrew Collier discusses China's economic woes, characterized by persistent deflation, with the CPI down 0.3% (6 out of 9 months in the red) and the PPI down for 36 straight months. This environment raises concerns about "Japanification"—a multi-decade slowdown after a property crash. Major structural changes to stimulate consumer consumption are unlikely at the upcoming Communist Party plenum, as the system favors state investment. The property market collapse means foreign investment is leaving, and Collier suggests the economy may not bottom until 2027 or 2028. 1890 PEKING

When life feels unfair and your prayers hit a wall, what do you do? We dig into the story of a mom who refused to give up when everything went quiet. She doesn't have all the right words or background—just raw desperation and stubborn faith. Jesus doesn't shame her; He pushes her deeper until her belief becomes real, not borrowed. It's a story about holding on when you want to walk away, trusting that even a tiny bit of hope—a “crumb”—can change everything. When life goes silent, don't shut down. Lean in. Keep asking. Let the pressure forge something real inside you. (Talk by Joshua Ott)

Does it ever seem like your thoughts have a mind of their own? Persistent negative thinking, anxiety spirals, or lingering offenses can quickly take over if you don't know how to stop them. But here's the good news—you can take control of your thoughts, and God has already given you the tools to do it. Pastor Kyle Idleman joins me on the 4:13 and shares how brain science and Scripture agree that we must pause and think about what we're thinking about. But we can't stop there! We have to clean out that thought closet! So today, Kyle will teach you how to take every thought captive, silence the lies and replace them with the truth, and break down the destructive mental strongholds that keep you stuck. Whether it's anxiety, anger, fear, insecurity, or even the occasional racing mind you're dealing with, listen in! This conversation will give you a practical, hope-filled path to renewing your mind.

In this week’s episode of Political Contessa, Jennifer welcomes Boston City Councilor Ed Flynn. Ed has represented District 2 since 2018 and previously served as City Council President from January 2022 to January 2024, acting as the "backup mayor" when the mayor is unavailable. As part of a historic Boston political family, Ed is the son of former mayor Raymond Flynn and has dedicated much of his career to public service, including more than 20 years in the US Navy. Known for his advocacy on safety, fiscal responsibility, and quality-of-life issues, Ed is widely respected for his tenacity, focus on local concerns, and steadfast commitment to Boston neighborhoods. Jennifer and Ed dive into the seismic shift on the Boston City Council, examining the transition from moderate to more radical approaches and their impact on key city issues. This episode highlights Ed Flynn's outspoken critiques of council priorities, including the neglect of local public safety, rising property taxes, and lawless city streets, in favor of national and international causes. Ed calls out open drug use, lawlessness in bike and scooter transit, challenges with affordable housing, and contentious regulations that drive away developers. The discussion also covers the dangers facing city residents, including alarming incidents in neighborhoods such as Beacon Hill and the Boston Common, as well as ongoing battles over support for the Boston Police Department. Throughout, controversial topics surface, including resistance from council colleagues to enforce basic laws and the struggle to refocus attention on the core responsibilities of city government. "Boston is like the wild, wild west; we just can't allow anyone to do what they want to do in the city just because they feel like it." ~Ed Flynn This week on Political Contessa: The transformation of the Boston City Council from moderate to radical ideology Neglect of neighborhood services, safety, and infrastructure in favor of national issues Escalating open drug use and distribution of over 80,000 needles monthly Public safety crises, including lawlessness, human trafficking, and frequent break-ins Declining support for and staffing of the Boston Police Department Impact of increased property taxes and regulatory challenges on housing and affordability Unregulated bike lanes and scooter use are worsening city safety and public frustration Persistent calls from Ed Flynn and allies for a return to local, constituent-focused governance Connect with Ed Flynn: XCity Councilor Ed Flynn Official PageEd for Boston Official Campaign Website Awaken Your Inner Political Contessa Thanks for tuning into this week’s episode of Political Contessa.

Persistent Pests “Catch all the foxes, those little foxes, before they ruin the vineyard of love, for the grapevines are blossoming!” ‭‭Song of Songs‬ ‭2‬:‭15‬ ‭ These little foxes aren't yet fully grown. Nobody would think a cuddly little fox would be dangerous to have around. They love nothing better than to eat the young grapes before they come out fully. Thus, they wreak havoc on the vines of our walk with the Lord.  Let's mention 5 of the “little foxes” or persistent pests that ruin some of our fruitful writing before it's fully ripened… 1.) Sensitiveness or easily offended. It can be a small chip on our shoulder but flare up if we're not given the respect we desire. It can stifle our creativity in writing and dry up the flow of the Spirit. Pray that we can have the mind and humility of Christ. 2.) Laziness. Too lazy to dig into the Word. Too lazy to spend time in prayer. This also leaks into our writing. The Kingdom Writer cannot afford to compromise in these areas if we expect eternal impact. There's a cost to those things and also a great reward.  3.) Living in regret. The most powerful 3 words in history were uttered by Jesus while hanging on the cross, “It is finished!” Regret sucks the life out of us and keeps us from moving forward in all that God has for us.  4.) Distraction. Causes us to go down rabbit trails. Social media is the major distraction of our day. One writer calls it “nuggets of nothingness.” Before we know it, we've wasted 1-2 hours with nothing to show for it.  5.) Busyness. We fill up our days and weeks with good things. But somehow we fail to set aside scheduled writing blocks. Or when we do, it can easily be cancelled and replaced by something else. It's not treated as a priority. The only way to handle these “little foxes” is to kill them. If we don't, our sweetest, most fruitful writing, like vine-ripened grapes, will not materialize. Resources: If you're ready to take a step of faith and finally finish your book, we have a few ways we can help you.  1. Free Writing Week Challenge: Create a Writing Habit in 15-Minutes a Day Even if you feel overwhelmed or stuck in procrastination, sitting down to write for just 15 minutes a day is the best way to finally reach your writing goals.

On Healthy Waves, host Avik Chakraborty sits down with Dr. Albert Bramante—veteran talent agent, PhD in psychology, certified hypnotist, and NLP practitioner—to break down how the story you tell yourself shapes mental health and performance. From limiting beliefs and the inner critic to practical mindset tools like reframing, hypnosis, and NLP, Albert explains how identity shifts fuel results for actors, CEOs, and high achievers alike. You'll learn the difference between healthy challenge (eustress) and toxic stress, how to spot early warning signs, and how to build daily systems that drive sustainable success without burnout. Direct, actionable, and grounded—this conversation helps you rewrite your inner narrative so you can perform with authenticity and balance. About the guest  : Dr. Albert Bramante is a long-time talent agent with 20+ years in TV, film, and theater. He also holds a PhD in psychology, is a certified hypnotist, and an NLP practitioner. He helps actors and high-performing professionals dismantle self-sabotage, shift identity, and perform with confidence. Key takeaways: Your self-story drives outcomes: Internal narratives formed in childhood (criticism vs. celebration) shape beliefs, identity, and mental health. Identity shift > willpower: Recast yourself as a survivor, not a victim to unlock resilient behavior and better performance. Reframing works: Tools from hypnosis/NLP help reframe events, reduce the inner critic, and enable authentic delivery in high-stakes moments (e.g., auditions, boardrooms). Eustress vs. distress:Eustress (a focused, time-bound arousal) boosts performance; toxic stress lingers and disrupts sleep, breathing, and eating patterns. Spot stress early: Persistent hypervigilance, irregular sleep, and appetite shifts are cautions that coping systems need attention. Action builds confidence: Consistent, small steps with feedback loops (“fail forward”) develop durable competence and calm. Balance prevents burnout: Maintain outside interests and supportive routines to counter high-judgment environments. Mind–body is one system: Mental stress elevates cortisol, impacting the body; physical and mental practices (mindfulness, movement, breathwork) should work together. Translate strengths across domains: Map your existing professional gravitas to new performance contexts to accelerate wins. Make it practical: Label emotions, reframe limits, set growth-mindset systems, and review results weekly.

Prayer is the life source of the believer. We have overcomplicated it, but prayer is simply a conversation with God. The beauty of saying “Good morning, God” is that He is never not there. Prayer is where we find peace, comfort, direction, and the wisdom of God. It is not the preparation for the greater work but is the greater work. Everything must begin in prayer. Jesus gave us the model, the outline, and the call to keep asking, keep seeking, and keep knocking. Prayer is not a “ding dong ditch” moment—it is persistence. Like the widow before the judge, we are called to keep showing up and to depend on the One who loves us. Hardship often drives us to prayer, but once we taste and see that the Lord is good, we realize we can't live without Him. Persistent prayer is our display of dependency and expectancy. God's ways are always better, His timing is always best, and He calls us to trust Him more.

⁠Amazon has aggressively expanded its third-party logistics footprint⁠. They opened their Multi-Channel Fulfillment service to merchants on rival platforms like Shein, Shopify, and Walmart, leveraging their scale to become the default logistics backbone for e-commerce. We analyze the major corporate reality shift in Less-Than-Truckload as ⁠FedEx Freight remains firmly on track to become an independent public company by June 2026⁠, trading on the NYSE as FDXF. Despite a constrained LTL market due to a weak industrial economy, FedEx Freight announced a 5.9% general rate increase taking effect January 5th, driven by spin-off cost pressures and rising wages. The episode shares a stark economic warning of ⁠"profitless prosperity," which projects steady, slow expansion for US GDP and freight activity through 2029⁠, yet requires operators to fight hard for margins. Persistent inflation is expected, fueled by factors like labor scarcity, fiscal deficits, and rising energy demand, making these rate increases likely to stick. Adding to the inflation headache, ⁠the weighted average U.S. tariff rate has climbed to 16.4%, the highest level seen since the 1930s⁠, which is expected to generate 1.3% to 1.4% inflation. We also cover capacity dynamics, noting that while the Outbound Tender Rejection Index remains low (stuck just over 5%) signaling persistent excess capacity, capacity exits are expected to continue as smaller carriers struggle to afford replacing aging truck fleets. Finally, we address critical regulatory changes related to risk and driver welfare, starting with the ⁠Department of Transportation launching a major crackdown on cargo theft⁠ after a spike of more than 90% between 2021 and 2024. ⁠New legislation is also moving fast to ban predatory lease-purchase programs⁠, which were concluded by an FMCSA task force to be "irredeemable tools of fraud and driver oppression" that shift the financial burden onto drivers.

Persistent grief symptoms nearly doubled the risk of death within 10 years, showing that unresolved grief has serious long-term health effects People with high levels of grief were far more likely to use antidepressants, sedatives, and anxiety medications for years after their loss Frequent doctor visits remained elevated for up to seven years in those experiencing unrelenting grief, highlighting the strain it places on both mind and body Long-lasting grief keeps stress hormones high, weakens your immune system, disrupts sleep, and increases your risk of chronic disease Taking steps like honoring your unique grieving process, supporting your body with sleep, healthy diet, and exercise, and using techniques like the Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT) helps you move through grief and protect your long-term health

When a problem keeps showing up in your life like an unwelcome visitor, how do you respond? Maybe the same struggles keep resurfacing despite your best efforts—leaving work at the office, carving out time for what matters, or breaking free from patterns that no longer serve you. It can feel like these challenges are unsolvable, draining your energy, and stealing your peace of mind.   These problems aren't unsolvable; the challenge is often in how we approach them.

Are you truly being persistent with your startup, or just being stubborn? In the new age of AI-powered founders and hyper-fast iteration, many entrepreneurs mistake obstinacy for persistence and end up running out of time, money, and morale.Too often we glorify “hustle” and “grit” without understanding when to adapt, pivot, or quit. The misconception that sheer willpower equals success has caused countless startups to fail, not because the idea was bad, but because the founder couldn't tell when to change course.In this episode, Chris and Yaniv dive deep into Paul Graham's classic essay on the difference between persistence and obstinacy. Drawing from decades of startup experience, they unpack why adaptability, “predatory listening,” and goal-directed experimentation are the true drivers of breakthrough success.They explore the five traits that set persistent founders apart (energy, imagination, resilience, good judgment, and focus) and explain how to build these skills into your daily practice as a founder.In this episode, you will:Discover the critical difference between persistence and obstinacy in startup cultureLearn Paul Graham's “boat rudder vs. boat engine” metaphor and why it matters for foundersIdentify the five traits every successful founder must develop to survive and thriveUnderstand how “predatory listening” and adaptability accelerate learning and reduce riskExplore real-world examples (Stripe, Uber) showing how top founders embody these traitsApply practical strategies to know when to double down, pivot, or quit a failing ideaGain a fresh perspective on why resilience and imagination matter more than raw hustleThe Pact Honor the Startup Podcast Pact!

Advanced persistent threats represent one of the most dangerous cyber security challenges facing organizations today. These long-term, stealthy attacks allow hackers to maintain undetected access to networks for extended periods. In this episode, we analyze multiple APT scenarios from Mr. Robot, including the Evil Corp hack, Ollie's compromised laptop, and the Dark Army's infiltration of Allsafe. We explore how threat actors establish footholds, maintain persistence, and operate across different network segments. From raspberry pi devices hidden in executive washrooms to compromised thermostats communicating with other facilities, we examine the various ways APTs can manifest. Our discussion covers detection methods, the importance of monitoring new devices, and why proper incident response goes far beyond simple malware scans. Learn the red flags to watch for and why machine learning tools are becoming critical for identifying suspicious network behavior.

Even though polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) were banned nearly 50 years ago, these persistent chemicals are still part of our daily environment. In this episode of Plugged into Public Health, we talk with Dr. Amanda Bullert, neuroscientist and research consultant at the University of Minnesota, about what PCBs are, how exposure still happens today, and what her team's research reveals about their effects on the brain. Amanda breaks down how PCBs influence metabolism, inflammation, and long-term brain health, why certain communities are more at risk, and what steps individuals and public health leaders can take to reduce harm. It's a conversation that sheds light on the hidden legacy of environmental pollutants and the lessons they offer for today's public health challenges.

I'm probably covering 1% of the world events when we conduct these briefings, so please remember that if I left it out, it doesn't necessarily mean that it's unimportant. Also, remember that I do these briefings quite often, so I might have covered an issue previously that you might not see if you are only watching our most recent videos. I'm also doing this in my spare time, so again I fully admit that these briefings aren't even close to being perfect; I'm going for a healthy blend of speed and quality. If I were to wait and only post a brief when it's "perfect" I would never post anything at all. So expect some minor errors here and there. If there is a major error or correction that needs to be made, I will post it here in the description, and verbally address it in the next briefing. Also, thanks for reading this far.
