As the Big Rock Blue Marlin Tournament winds down this week, That Don't Sound Right dives into one of the biggest stories in tournament history with special guest Glenn, who brings firsthand knowledge and behind-the-scenes insight from the docks, the boats, and the Gulf Stream. That Don't Sound Right is a podcast about talking—the way we did before the internet, when you couldn't instantly fact-check everything and all the expertise lived in the people around the conversation. In this timely episode, Peter and Cecil sit down with Glenn to discuss the legendary 919-pound blue marlin that shattered tournament records and made headlines throughout the fishing world. The story gets even wilder when they discuss what was found inside the fish—a sailfish that added another layer to an already unbelievable catch. The conversation explores what it's really like to compete in the Big Rock, from running high-performance sportfishing boats 40-plus miles offshore to the Gulf Stream, to the strategy, teamwork, pressure, and excitement that come with chasing trophy billfish and life-changing prize money. Whether you're following this year's tournament, planning a trip to the Crystal Coast, or simply curious about one of North Carolina's most iconic sporting events, Glenn shares stories that bring listeners aboard for the action. From tournament rules and weigh-ins to crew dynamics and the realities of battling a giant marlin, this episode captures the thrill that makes Big Rock a summer tradition. As boats head offshore this week in search of the next record catch, join Peter, Cecil, and Glenn for a conversation about the fish, the fishermen, and the stories that keep everyone coming back year after year. Because when someone tells you a 919-pound marlin swallowed a sailfish and still got caught... that don't sound right.

Imagine you are in the circus, watching a tightrope walker who's been on the sauce.He sways, the crowd gasps, he sways again, more gasps, and yet somehow he doesn't fall. This goes on and on and eventually you get bored watching. That, it seems to me, is Britain.Public debt is now knocking on £3 trillion. (Remember you could have spent a million pounds every day since Jesus was born and still not have spent a trillion - that's how incomprehensible a sum a trillion is). Interest payments now run at over £110 billion a year - more than we spend on education. Debt-to-GDP hovers around 100%. Growth is wilted. Productivity is like blancmange. Taxes are everywhere and record-breaking. Waste and bloat and bureaucracy are rampant.But the political response to every problem is the same: spend more.Despite all of this, like our inebriated tight rope walker, sterling refuses to drop. The pound trades around $1.35. The gilt market continues to function. The bond vigilantes, whoever these mystical people are, appear to be away at lunch with Lord Lucan..Why?The answer begins with a simple but often overlooked fact that currencies are not valued absolutely, but relatively.You look at Britain's fiscal position and conclude the pound must fall, but against what?It's not like the US isn't running unthinkable deficits. Interest payments are exploding there too. The eurozone is if anything more trapped in low growth than we are. Japan's debt burden is legendary. Never mind the oil, Canada is a basket case. Australian regulation is doing its best to revive the traditions of the penal colony and China has its own economic and demographic headaches.All currencies are crapThen there are interest rates. Britain still offers relatively attractive yields. Ten-year gilts yield around 5%. That may be painful for the Chancellor, whatever her name is, but it is attractive to those looking for income. Japan, the US and most of Europe offer less. Higher interest rates support the pound. They attract computerised capital from around the world, which buys sterling to get the yield.London remains a financial centre, albeit it one in over-regulated decline. There is still some rule of law and some respect for property rights. The UK is not yet Zimbabwe, Turkey or Venezuela, even if it may feel that way. A country can be badly governed for a surprisingly long time before capital completely loses confidence.However, none of the underlying problems have actually been fixed, nor are they going to be fixed. We are still spending £48,000 per household through the state. You'll get greater productivity out of a plate of blancmange. Taxes are not coming down. We are locked in promise, spend, borrow, tax, repeat.Here's another possibility. The tightrope walker may never fall off. But with each step, the tightrope itself gets closer to the ground.The pound has lost over 40% of its purchasing power just since 2020. In 2007 a pound cost $2.10, so we are down a third against another unit which in itself is hopeless. Measured against the constant that is gold, the pound has fallen over 95% since the Gordon Brown sales of 1999.Here are those declines visualised.The framing is all wrong. The collapse is not sudden but ongoing. Maybe we don't get a dramatic crisis. No Black Wednesday, no run on the pound, no emergency press conference outside the Bank of England or wheelbarrows full of digital bank notes. Just more of this relentless decline. Every year a bit more debt, a bit more printing, a bit more inflation, another 7% loss of purchasing power, a bit more government spending, a bit more taxation, year after year, decade after decade. The tightrope gets lower and lower but nobody notices because we are all looking at the walker.Alf Ramsay was on £4,500 a year. Thomas Tuchel gets £5 million. That didn't happen over night. It was cumulative, incremental and compounded. The endgame remains debasementNot just in the UK but everywhere. In a democracy where politicians need votes they will ALWAYS choose inflation over austerity, spending over restraint and dilution over default. This is built in. The incentives are too powerful. They will sacrifice the currency to preserve the system.Nothing changes until the system itself changes.Perhaps the tightrope walker never falls. But the rope keeps inching lower and lower until one day it is running along the ground.The crowd applauds because there was no crash. Meanwhile the currency has lost another 98% of its value.That is where this is going, gradually but relentlessly.

SEND ME A TEXT MESSAGE NOWDonald Trump has many talents. One of them is finding a way to make virtually everything about Donald Trump.This episode looks at the giant ego that seems to demand constant attention, whether it's politics, national events, the media, or even things that have absolutely nothing to do with him. Apparently every spotlight in America eventually has to be redirected toward one man.I also dive into Trump's latest confrontation with the press and why so many journalists continue to handle him the wrong way. If reporters want answers, stop arguing, stop debating. Start demanding evidence and keep demanding it until Trump either provides it or melts down trying to avoid it.I'll talk about why Trump's favorite strategy never changes, why victimhood remains his political superpower, and why some members of the media still haven't figured out the most effective way to expose nonsense when it's happening right in front of them.I'll tell you who I think is the only person I found so far who knows how to deal with Trump.If you're tired of the endless ego, the endless outrage, the endless need for attention, and the endless drama that somehow follows Donald everywhere he goes, pull up a chair. I've got a few thoughts.If you've enjoyed the podcast and found it informative, and maybe got a laugh or two, then please contribute to keeping this podcast around. I'm not backed by Corporate media.

In this week's Northwest Florida Fishing Report, host Joe Baya is joined by Butch Thierry and Angelo DePaola for a wide-ranging Gulf Coast report covering a massive 790-pound bluefin tuna, improving swordfish and dolphin action offshore, heavy sargassum in the blue water, kayak-accessible inshore trout and redfish patterns, nearshore reef opportunities, and the kickoff of Gulf billfish tournament season. This episode features Capt. Adam Peeples with One Shot Charters, Brandon Barton with Emerald Waters Kayak Charters, and Jim Cox with the Orange Beach Billfish Classic. Capt. Adam Peeples gives the offshore report after landing a 113-inch, 790-pound bluefin tuna while live baiting with blackfin tuna on Penn 70s, 150-pound hollow core braid, 130-pound mono, 200-pound fluorocarbon leader, and a 12/0 Mustad Perfect Circle hook. He also reports strong dolphin action, an improving swordfish bite, 78-degree blue water, and scattered sargassum that is making trolling difficult. Adam explains how anglers can adjust by avoiding grass-catching plugs and divers, using single-hook rigs, fishing live baits differently, and staying disciplined about keeping lines clean. Brandon Barton gives the kayak fishing report from the Pensacola area, where trout and redfish are active on open grass flats, sand potholes, and shallow-to-mid-depth areas in the sound. He breaks down topwater, wake bait, jerk bait, weedless shrimp, and paddle tail tactics for trout and redfish, along with how he uses kayak mobility and electric propulsion to reach less-pressured water. Brandon also talks nearshore reefs, where amberjack, snapper, grouper, king mackerel, and even mahi are becoming realistic kayak targets as summer patterns build. Jim Cox recaps the Orange Beach Billfish Classic, the first leg of the Gulf Coast Triple Crown, with a record 62 boats and a $1.6 million tournament purse. He covers the long runs teams made in search of current, the strong blue marlin catch-and-release results, giant tuna weighed during the event, and how Gulf Coast tournament fishing continues to become more technical with sonar fishing, live baiting, fuel range, and advanced boat technology shaping the modern game.

On this episode of the Pound for Pound Leadership Podcast, we sit down with Pastor Jeffrey Rachmat — founder of Jakarta Praise Community Church — for one of the most honest and impactful leadership conversations we've had yet. What started as a staff chapel quickly turned into a masterclass on leadership, succession, culture, and building through crisis. Pastor Jeffrey shares the incredible story of launching JPCC on July 4th, 1999, during one of the most unstable seasons in Indonesia's history: economic collapse, political unrest, and churches being burned down across the nation. In the middle of chaos, God called him to build a church. At first, he said no. Eventually, he said yes. And that obedience would become the foundation of one of the most influential churches in the world today. In this episode, we unpack: • Why vision alone is never enough, and what actually determines whether a church survives or thrives • The difference between building a church and simply holding services • Why "Superman is dead" and how healthy leaders build super teams instead • How to navigate change without losing your culture and identity • What Pastor Jeffrey learned after leading for 25 years and successfully transitioning leadership • How to know when an organization is truly ready for succession • The leadership principles that helped JPCC grow in one of the hardest environments on the planet This conversation is packed with practical wisdom, deep conviction, and leadership lessons every pastor, leader, entrepreneur, and team builder needs to hear. If you're leading through transition, building culture, raising teams, or trying to stay faithful in difficult seasons, this episode is for you.
A progressive rock masterwork with a lot of psychology to explore.

The hosts open the show discussing Jill's recent interview with the head of Infiniti USA regarding--among other things--the possible comeback of the humble sedan. This conversation dovetails nicely with Tom's news regarding the likely comeback of a Buick midsize sedan--and a possible Camaro, as well. Jill shared impressions of a would-be annual Land Rover event dubbed Defender Trophy Competition. The event would mirror the legendary Camel Trophy competitions of the Seventies and Eighties. Still in the first segment, Jill reviews the Range Rover SE premium large crossover. Listen in for her take on this off-road-ready luxury hauler. In the second segment, the hosts chat with Caterham's Simon Sproule about the carmaker's tiny sports cars. Listen in for details regarding the history of Caterham, as well as U.S. availability of these storied automobiles. In the last segment, Jill is subjected to Tom's "Which Sold Better?" quiz, including a special Talking Heads bonus question.

FREE DOWNLOAD: How to Set Up the Hermes Agent → https://value.8figureagency.co/hermes Ready to become an AI-native agency? Book a call at 8figureagency.coGuest: Ben Fisher, founder of Skinny and Bald. Hampton member. Been coding since fifth grade. Has been CEO twice, CTO three times. Describes himself as 60% product, 40% engineer.The pull: Ben is one of the sharpest guys in the Hampton AI channel. This is his second time on the pod. Jordan came with real questions about funnels, databases, and skills — Ben answered live, then pulled up his actual meeting-processing skill on screen share.What we coveredThe build vs. buy question. Jordan's giveaway funnel pulls comments → emails → form fills → booked calls across LinkedIn and X, six campaigns a week. His partner said use GoHighLevel. Ben's framing: build custom with Claude when you control the maintenance, use a tool when it solves 80%+ without workarounds. Texting is the exception — Twilio's regulatory rabbit hole can eat days even with Claude Code.Databases and custom funnels. Jordan wants the funnel experience to mirror what the user clicked — landing page copy, follow-up sequence, everything. Ben's example: he still uses Kit.com for his newsletter, but layered custom API logic on top. He didn't rebuild Kit. He enriched it.The thing that separates real builders from vibe coders. “What distinguishes really effective builders really comes down to workflow.” Same models. Same Claude. Different results because of how people work. Ben's non-negotiable: test-driven development. Plan first. Write the tests. Then build. Otherwise Claude tells you it shipped something that doesn't exist.The “your friend Ben is absolutely correct” story. Hampton buddy building a chief of staff agent in Slack and WhatsApp. Asked Claude if it was secure. Claude said yes. Ben listed four gaps. Buddy pasted Ben's message into Claude. Claude wrote back: “Your friend Ben is absolutely correct. We don't do this, this, this, and this.” Lesson: you cannot ask the AI to verify the AI.Claude Skills, real talk. Skills are mostly plain English text files the AI reads. They get highly personal fast — Ben said his public repo of skills is becoming less useful to others because the nuances are his. Best move for most people: use someone else's skill as a reference, have Claude analyze how it works, then build your own flavor.Ben's content-from-meetings workflow (live demo). Fireflies records every call → transcripts get stored as markdown files in a local folder → a Claude skill called process meeting notes runs on demand, pulls the last 3 days, formats each meeting in EOS Level 10 format (clear accountability, agreements, action items), and routes to-dos to the right project repo. Why local files instead of remote Fireflies calls? Speed. His second brain reads disk faster than it makes API calls across nine months of transcripts.Writing in your voice with AI. Ben studied journalism and advertising. He uses Claude as a sparring partner first, last-mile editor second. Reference for anyone serious about this: every.to publishes their full editorial AI process, including how to build an anti-AI style guide. Ben also actively removes em-dashes from his AI output now because they've become the tell.Markdown files as the convention. .md is what the AI world runs on. Pound signs for headers, asterisks for bold. Doesn't really matter if you use .txt or .docx — but markdown gives the AI hierarchy it can parse.Tools and references mentionedFireflies, Claude Code, N8N, Zapier, Kit.com, GoHighLevel, Twilio, Obsidian, every.to, Superpowers (Claude skill harness), Hampton, EOS Level 10 format, Ruben's “How AI” Substack.Where to find Benskinnyandbald.com — consulting offersdearben.ai — Ben's AI podcast where execs submit questions and he answers live with screen share, plus his newsletterReady to build an AI-native agency that runs on systems, not scrambling?8 Figure Agency helps seven-figure agency owners install the agents, automations, and AI workflows that turn your team into a 10x operation.

Have you tried cutting out sugar, skipping desserts, or even ditching carbs… only to see the scale not move at all? On today's episode, I'm breaking down what's actually happening when you clean up your diet, eat less sugar, and still don't lose even a pound or two of body fat. This is one of the most common frustrations women experience during their fat loss journey. While reducing both your total daily sugar intake and specifically your added sugar consumption can absolutely support your health, many women assume that simply "eating clean" automatically leads to fat loss. Meanwhile, they watch other women enjoy treats here and there, seem less strict with food, and still lose weight more consistently. So what gives!? The truth is… eating healthy is not always the same as eating for fat loss. That's why today I'm unpacking the real relationship between sugar, calories, and fat loss so you can stop feeling confused about why your body isn't changing despite your effort. You'll learn what actually matters for fat loss, why "eating clean" may be keeping you stuck, and how to approach nutrition in a way that feels more realistic and enjoyable, while also improving your health and body composition.

Investigative journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell and Attorney Eric Bland pull no punches as a brutal week looms. With Mandy's May 15 contempt hearing approaching and Eric facing his own all-day ODC deposition Wednesday, the trio breaks down what they call a coordinated campaign of harassment dressed up as litigation. Mandy responds — emotionally and on the record — to a paltry excuse for journalism, including the reputationally damaging and wildly defamatory suggestion she might have information about the leaked Mallory Beach photos. Liz lays out the timeline: Gregg Roman, the actual custodian of those photos, has dodged two depositions while Mandy gets ambushed in court. Eric explains how the ODC has been weaponized against lawyers who do good work, with grievances quietly bundled for years.

For centuries, the people of the British Isles marked the beginning of summer not on the solstice, in June, but on May 1st. It’s a cross-quarter day, which comes about half way between a solstice and an equinox. In Scotland and Ireland, the date was known as Beltane. People built bonfires to celebrate the longer days, and held rituals to protect their crops and livestock. And in England, the date became known as May Day. People celebrated with village fetes, and they danced around the maypole. Dancers grabbed ribbons attached to the top of the pole, then circled around it, getting closer with each circuit. Especially tall maypoles were erected in an area of London known as the Strand. The last of these poles was removed 300 years ago. But it found a new life – supporting one of the world’s largest telescopes. The maypole was acquired by Isaac Newton, who had formulated laws of gravity and motion. In April of 1718, he had the pole moved to a park outside London for use by James Pound, an astronomer and clergyman. Pound had the use of a large lens created by another astronomer. The telescope was created by mounting the lens on the maypole. The eyepiece was on the ground, linked to the lens by a long wire. With that telescope, Pound measured the positions of the moons of Jupiter and Saturn. Newton used those observations to calculate the moons’ orbits – measuring a celestial dance around the maypole.

Episode Overview In this member spotlight, Bridget shares how she lost 60 pounds by going beyond what she was eating. What started as frustration with weight gain, midlife changes, and nighttime eating turned into something much bigger: stronger work boundaries, better self-trust, more ease around food, and a daily life that finally felt manageable. Bridget opens up about how the real shift happened when she stopped trying to fix her nighttime eating and started looking at what was driving it. From eating a bigger breakfast to protecting her lunch break to walking for just five minutes, the small changes she once dismissed ended up changing everything. This is a powerful conversation about zooming out, looking upstream, and realizing that lasting change often has less to do with food—and more to do with how your life is set up.

Key Points How Bridget's nighttime eating was connected to under-eating, overwhelm, and work stress earlier in the day Why setting stronger work boundaries helped her lose weight and feel better in every area of life How self-trust grew through small, repeatable habits instead of big dramatic changes What it looked like to go from five-minute walks to completing a 5K

This week, in Pound, Virginia, a man holds his dying wife, as police arrive, claiming he was held hostage inside the home for over 3 hours. He claims they beat him, while a large man sat on him, then shot his wife, as she returned from a karate class. Police have no luck finding clues, until a mysterious phone call to detectives leads them to buried bag of of very strange evidence. Is there a group of home invading killers on the loose, or is there a much more diabolical solution to this case?? Along the way, we find out that some towns just can't allow dancing, that karate is apparently no match for a shotgun blast, and that having a fat man sit on the hostage is the strangest form of home invading!!
