'BradCast' 6/8/2026: Trump Rails Against CA Elections, Presents No Evidence of Fraud by Progressive Voices
The guest host for today's show is Brad Bannon. Brad runs Bannon Communications Research, a polling, message development and media firm which helps labor unions, progressive issue groups and Democratic candidates win public affairs and political campaigns. His show, 'Deadline D.C. with Brad Bannon,' airs every Monday from 3-4pm ET. Brad is first joined by Ken Vogel, a reporter based in the Washington bureau of The New York Times, investigating the intersection of money, politics and influence. The two discuss Ken's new explosive investigative piece revealing how big tobacco gave a Trump Super PAC $5 million dollars, and just five days later, the FDA cleared flavored vapes. (article link: https://www.nytimes.com/2026/05/20/us/politics/donation-big-tobacco-vaping.html?unlocked_article_code=1.kFA.hbVQ.Tezpj9lnIlR2&smid=url-share) Then, Brad is joined by Ethan Rome, National Director of the Emergency Campaign to Support Higher Education. The pair discusses the campaign's work to defend the autonomy of colleges and universities, protect vital life-saving research that is an engine of our local economies, and make higher education a public good that is accessible, affordable, and relevant to all people, including working families. They also discuss the Trump administration's attacks against diversity in college, as well as the threats from ICE on campuses across the country. The website for Ethan's organization is www.emergencycampaign.org. Brad is on the National Journal's panel of political insiders, is an American political analyst for The Times of India TV, and is a national political analyst for WGN TV and Radio in Chicago and KNX Radio in Los Angeles.

Today for "Rails Report #1", I want to unpack a phrase that gets used a lot, but still means different things depending on who you ask: "invisible rails".-- For a consumer app builder, invisible rails are the infrastructure layers that sit underneath the product experience and make everything feel effortless. The user does not need to think about settlement, custody, payments routing, identity checks, or reconciliation. They just open the app, move money, make a decision, or complete a workflow, and the system handles the complexity in the background. That matters because consumer products win when friction disappears. The best products do not ask people to understand the machinery. They make the machinery disappear.In finance, that has become even more important. The old stack was built around visible institutions, visible intermediaries, and very visible friction.The next stack is different. It is faster, more modular, more programmable, and increasingly embedded inside products that do not even look like financial services at first glance.For a builder, this changes the game in three ways:First, you can design for behavior instead of infrastructure constraints. You are no longer forced to make the user adapt to the back end.Second, you can move from one large product to many small actions. Payments, savings, investing, FX, identity, and settlement can all become moments inside a broader experience rather than separate destinations. Third, you can create trust without exposing complexity. The user does not need to see every rail to feel that the system is reliable, secure, and instant.That is what invisible rails really mean. Not just better technology, but a different product philosophy: hide the plumbing, improve the experience, and let the user focus on the outcome.If you build in consumer finance today, that is probably one of the biggest shifts to understand.-- The podcasts are authored, edited and produced by Raph Grieco (raphael-grieco.com | olivecapital.vc).
Welcome back to “Runway Series”, the podcast produced by Olive Capital.I am still your host, Raph, and this season is a bit of an evolution.We're still following the same curiosity that's always shaped this show, the stuff changing underneath finance, product, and the way people build and finance tech innovation, but we're packaging it in a more focused way. We'll be exploring a few themes that feel especially important right now.One is invisible rails: the infrastructure quietly reshaping how money moves, settles, and flows through everyday products.Another is the agentic economy: what happens when software starts doing more of the work, not just helping us do it. We've already started exploring this theme last year.We'll also look at trustless privacy, how people and companies can share less, protect more, and still move faster.And we'll spend time on everyday money: the consumer fintech questions that matter most in practice, from how people manage their accounts to what makes a financial product actually stick. The idea is simple. Keep following the signals, keep talking to the people building the future, and keep making sense of what all of this means in real life. That's what this season is about.The topics will intermingle for sure, this is an exploration, so we will see how this season unfolds.-- The podcasts are authored, edited and produced by Raph Grieco (raphael-grieco.com | olivecapital.vc).

Episode 227 with Mimi Kufour, Global COO of KoinKoin, a digital assets exchange and financial infrastructure company focused on solving cross border liquidity and payment challenges across Africa and other emerging markets. Mimi oversees the company's global operations across multiple jurisdictions and works closely with regulators as digital asset frameworks continue to evolve. She also serves as a Strategic Advisor to the Chamber of Digital Assets and Blockchain Innovation in Ghana, contributing to policy development and industry alignment across the region.In this episode, we explore how Africa's financial infrastructure is evolving and why digital assets are increasingly being viewed as more than just investment vehicles. Mimi shares her perspective on the structural challenges that continue to hinder cross border trade and payments across the continent, and explains how emerging technologies such as stablecoins are creating new possibilities for moving value more efficiently between African markets.Drawing on KoinKoin's experience operating across multiple regulatory environments, Mimi discusses the realities of building compliant digital asset infrastructure while engaging directly with policymakers and regulators. She examines the opportunities created by Africa's evolving regulatory landscape, the challenges of balancing innovation with oversight, and the growing debate around the role of governments, central banks, and private operators in shaping the future of financial services.What We Discuss With MimiWhy Africa may have a unique opportunity to build new financial infrastructure rather than retrofit legacy banking systems.How stablecoins and digital assets are evolving from speculative assets into critical infrastructure for payments, liquidity, and trade.The race to regulate digital assets across Africa and whether fragmented national frameworks are slowing innovation and growth.The tension between dollar denominated stablecoins and Africa's ambitions for monetary sovereignty and financial independence.What needs to happen before 2030 to unlock a truly borderless financial system that supports trade and investment across the continent.Did you miss my previous episode where I discus The Untapped Trillion Dollar Opportunity in Africa's Diaspora Economy?

Brandon Thrower and I sat down via FaceTime to talk about the Ridge to Rails races coming up on June 6th. There is a 50k, Half Marathon and 10k. As of the recording, there were still some spots available, so sign up quickly! Brandon and I had recorded a podcast about this race a few years ago, but there have been quite a few changes to the courses. We are so fortunate for all the new trails that have opened and the access we have to them for races such as these. If you are running in any of these races, you will want to listen. Brandon talks thoroughly about each course, including aid station and crew information. Lots of pertinent information for you to hear! Enjoy, and I will be praying for good weather and good times to all those running out there!

Been slacking on productivity lately but I'm still doing my best to keep up on the chaos of humanity from the perspective of my Far Right Conservative CityBilly ass, with the Silent Partner & Co Host in the shadows lolThis episode we ramble about Thomas Massie election defeat, Spencer Pratt's campaign for LA Mayor, The unfathomable rant about pay from Speaker Johnson and the Israeli continued influence over our corrupt government, just to name a few things. Of course all of the usual things that cause me anger and bewilderment are discussed, and at one point it's an “Off the Rails “ moment over a 1st Amendment issue but those who listen wouldn't expect anything less! Can I contain myself from flipping out at some point?? I guess we'll find out on the next episode…Until Next Time
The U.S. State Department's Pax Silica initiative reframes Pax Americana for the AI age — chips, semiconductors, critical minerals, energy, data centers, payment rails. This week in Beijing, two of the Trilogy of Boards Patrick Wood predicted clicked into place. The Trilogy is now whole. In this two-and-a-half-hour conversation, Courtenay Turner and Patrick Wood — co-authors of The Final Betrayal: How Technocracy Destroyed America — walk the architecture being built around you: Pax Silica, the IMEC corridor, the Abraham Accords as the template for the China play, the Five Walls boxing China in, Gaza's new order under the Board of Peace, Taiwan as silicon shield and silicon hostage, the tokenization of property and the New York Stock Exchange, the occult roots of the technocratic movement, and how to think about preserving sovereignty, autonomy, and property in a rapidly closing system.

Кирилл Мокевнин – сооснователь онлайн-школы программирования «Хекслет», разработчик с почти двадцатилетним стажем, амбассадор организованного программирования и автор одноимённых YouTube- и Telegram-каналов. Он работал с Ruby on Rails ещё в коммерческой разработке, вокруг Rails строился сам Хекслет, и во многом на рельсах формировался его инженерный опыт. Rails много раз хоронили, но он почему-то продолжает жить. В него коммитят, вокруг него остаются большие продукты, он по-прежнему очень быстро закрывает типовые веб-задачи и даёт то самое ощущение, что один человек может сделать приложение от и до. Разбираем главные идеи рельсов: convention over configuration, ActiveRecord, миграции, серверную шаблонизацию, jobs, очереди и готовую инфраструктуру. Отдельно обсуждаем тёмную сторону этой философии: магию, метапрограммирование, динамически сгенерированные методы, колбэки в моделях, before_validation, жирные модели и боль больших проектов. А ещё – Sorbet, Tapioca и то, почему Кирилл со временем стал больше ценить типизацию, кодогенерацию и более «деревянный» код. Не обходим стороной фронтенд в рельсах: Hotwire, Inertia, React, TypeScript и вечный спор о том, где не писать JavaScript действительно полезно, а где превращается в тупиковую ветку. Ну и конечно обсуждаем главное: кому Rails вообще нужен сегодня. Почему его рано списывать, в каких продуктах он всё ещё даёт огромную скорость, а где лучше честно выбрать другой стек. Также ждем вас, ваши лайки, репосты и комменты в мессенджерах и соцсетях!

Cross-border payouts are one of those problems everyone complains about and then quietly accepts: high fees, slow settlement, and endless workarounds to get money into the hands of real people. I sit down with Cyril Mathew, Co-Founder and CEO of Latitude, to talk about why “faster money movement” only matters when the recipient can actually spend it in local currency, not just hold a stablecoin balance.Cyril walks through the career path that shaped his view of payments infrastructure, from scaling partnerships at Facebook to seeing the payout pain firsthand at Uber, then helping launch international expansion at Coinbase and working on USDC. That experience leads to a hard-earned lesson from Stripe: even if stablecoins let you reach 100 countries, adoption stalls if users cannot convert easily into pesos, reals, or other local currencies to pay for everyday life. The real product is the bridge between stablecoins and fiat, built with compliant rails, strong controls, and the “boring” payment details that enterprises demand.We break down what Latitude is building with its Liquidity Network, how stablecoins can reduce cross-border payment costs, and why real-time settlement can cut the need for prefunding and complex treasury float. We also cover where the biggest growth opportunities are showing up right now, including creator economy payouts, contractor payments, AI data labeling, fintech apps going global on day one, and the looming question of how AI agents may transact across borders.If you care about stablecoins, blockchain payments, real-time payments, or global payout infrastructure, this episode is for you.
This week on The Running Mullet… What happens when you mix trail runners, a moving train, and a little Appalachian magic? You get the legendary Highball to Thurmond — one of the most unique races in the area. Set deep in the New River Gorge of West Virginia, runners can choose from multiple distances — from a shorter scenic 50k to rugged 50 mile run, ruck, and relay distances that wind through historic rail towns, forested trails, crushed gravel, and relentless Appalachian climbs. But no matter the distance, the mission stays the same: Beat the train. Participants race toward Thurmond while the Amtrak line rolls alongside the gorge below. Finish before the train arrives, and you've officially outrun it. Then, after the suffering is over, runners climb aboard for one of the coolest post-race traditions anywhere — riding the train back to the start with a full car of exhausted trail runners swapping stories and survival tales. This week, we're breaking down the course, the strategy, the train logistics, and why this race has become such a great event for trail runners across the region. Appalachian grit, rail-town history, and a finish line unlike anything else — this week on The Running Mullet.

Recorded May 8, 2026 This week on Off the Rails, the gang celebrates finals week the only way higher ed AV/IT knows how: by watching a major cloud platform wobble and quietly whispering sweet nothings to the on-prem rack. The Instructure Canvas mess kicks off a discussion about cloud dependency, LMS integrations, sketchy APIs, cyber insurance, and the comforting lie that "hosted" means "not our problem." Then it's on to upcoming NWMET and InfoComm sessions about building local AI tools for AV design, documentation, math, and workflows… because sometimes the best cloud strategy is "don't." The main topic tackles higher ed media production studios, virtual production spaces, visualization labs, esports rooms, and all the other shiny innovation boxes campuses love to build before remembering someone has to staff, fund, maintain, and explain them. The crew digs into automation, realistic expectations, revenue potential, student involvement, and why your $3,000 LED volume is adorable. Finally, a listener's question about HyFlex classroom audio leads to ceiling mics, Catchbox, lectern mics, Dante, and the timeless truth that microphones are happiest when they're disappointing someone.

I had the pleasure of speaking with Dr. Alan Needle not only about his running adventures, but the research he is conducting at races put on by Tanawha Adventures and Dirty Wolf. Alan and his team are conducting a survey-based research study that is aiming to better understand what changes risks of falling and other injuries while you're running. So, if you are running the Kettlefoot, Ridge to Rails, Black Copperhead Sting, HAROC or Beast of the East you need to sign up to be part of this study! More races could be added, so stay tuned by following Injury Lab's instagram @injurylabappstate or checking out their website: https://phes.appstate.edu/laboratories/injury-laboratory. There are incentives offered for being part of these studies, so you don't want to miss out on this opportunity. Listen as Alan describes the research he is doing, plus what led to his specific interest in studying those that trail run. I was fascinated by his discoveries so far that have been published, and I am definitely going to stay tuned to the results of this research.

Gift cards have a branding problem and it's costing the payments world a big idea. Alex Preece, CEO and Co-Founder of Tillo, joins us to make the case that gift cards aren't really “gifts” at all. They're programmable stored value, a modern redemption rail that can sit inside bank apps, fintech wallets, cashback programs, employee rewards, refunds, and payouts. Once you see them as a payment instrument, the market looks a lot less like novelty and a lot more like infrastructure.We dig into how Tillo built a two-sided marketplace that connects thousands of retail brands with the businesses that want to reward customers and employees. Alex explains why a single API matters in a fragmented global ecosystem, what it takes to support multi-country catalogs, and how better tooling and transparency can make brands more confident partners. We also talk about a surprising insight: most volume is self-use, not gifting, because people are optimizing everyday spending by converting earned value into higher-impact rewards.We zoom out to the bigger payments trends reshaping rewards and loyalty: the demand for real-time gratification, the opportunity created by open banking and faster payments like RTP and FedNow, and the emerging push toward “global but local” benefits that actually work when customers travel or live abroad. If you're building in payments, loyalty, or fintech growth, this is a practical look at where rewards infrastructure is heading and why it can change behavior at the moment of decision.

Andy Cohen is using corporate propaganda to scare Bravo bloggers to not post leaked audio, to promise fans a “big chance” which will probably never happen and so much more none of which has deterred us here today to deep dive it all. Anyone got any leaked Summer House audio they want posted? Speaking of Andy, he seems angry, very angry, at Dorit during this week's RHOBH Reunion Part Two. Thou shall not go against Kyle. RHONJ is not filming despite the big meet up this week at Rails. In other news, RHORI, Episode 5, Kelsey is mad at Rosie for not posting her hair cut on IG, Liz is sad to be selling the boat, Alicia is over hating Rosie and last, but not least, Jo-Ellen provides receipts, proof and timelines that yes, Rulla's husband Brian may still be cheating. @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef Learn more about your ad choices.

Donald Trump's use of state power to persecute his enemies is escalating. The Justice Department indicted James Comey for allegedly threatening Trump with a social media post of seashells spelling “86 47.” Officials are also threatening to punish more media companies for angering the despot. The Comey case is already backfiring: Now that the details have been released, legal experts have mercilessly picked it apart from numerous angles. Even Fox News is quoting experts dismantling it. And Trump himself made it look even more absurd by claiming he knows “86” means “kill” because he saw it...in a gangster movie. When these efforts fizzle, the MAGA base will see the mighty Trump failing once again. We talked to former Federal prosecutor Barbara McQuade, author of The Fix: Saving America from the Corruption of a Mob-Style Government. She explains the deep flaws in the Comey indictment, how Trump's prosecutors are committing flagrant violations themselves, and what accountability for Trump's accomplices could look like later.

Your database is slow, your Sentry is screaming, and the backlog is full of “we'll fix it later.” What if an AI agent handled the boring but high-impact work while you slept and just opened a clean pull request for review the next morning?We're joined by Mike Coutermarsh, a software engineer who helped build GitHub Actions and later left GitHub for PlanetScale. We talk candidly about the trade-offs: walking away from big-company comfort, choosing impact over feeling like a cog, and learning to thrive in a flatter org where the best “process” is ownership. Mike shares how he leads the team responsible for everything users see at PlanetScale, from dashboards to APIs to CLIs, and why speeding up CI, reducing bugs, and protecting reliability can matter more than chasing the flashiest feature.Then we get practical about AI coding tools. Mike breaks down how Cursor, Claude Code, and MCP servers can connect production query patterns and Sentry errors to scoped “bot army” automations that propose fixes, optimize performance, and even keep error queues from becoming a garbage fire. We also dig into AI code review, responsibility (“if your name is on the commit, you own it”), and the uncomfortable question of whether code quality still matters when models can generate code fast. Along the way we touch token costs, local models, and why conventions like Rails can actually help AI work better.On the database side, Mike explains why PlanetScale started with MySQL via Vitess, how sharding changes operations like backups and restores, why Postgres demand forced a new product push, and what it could mean to bring Vitess-style scaling to Postgres. We wrap with a small but surprisingly powerful workflow upgrade: fast dictation using Spokenly and local speech-to-text.Subscribe, share this with a teammate who lives in dashboards and PRs, and leave a review with the one workflow you'd want an AI agent to automate next.Send us some love.JudoscaleAutoscaling that actually works.

This week on the GeekWire Podcast: we take the show on the road — or rather, on the rails — recording on Sound Transit's 2 Line as we ride the world's first light rail on a floating bridge from Seattle's Northgate neighborhood to Microsoft's campus in Redmond. Along the way, we talk tech news, chat with fellow passengers, and get a behind-the-scenes look at the engineering from Sound Transit's Henry Bendon. After arriving in Redmond, we sit down with Microsoft President Brad Smith to talk about the company's two-decade role in making the Crosslake Connection a reality — and hit him with a trivia question he didn't see coming. We also discuss Anduril's autonomous warship facility on Seattle's ship canal, golf star Bryson DeChambeau's acquisition of Bellevue-based Sportsbox AI ahead of the Masters, and more.

In this episode, Steven Ehrlich sits down with Jim to explore how traditional finance valuation frameworks apply to crypto. They discuss Bitcoin's role as a hedge against monetary debasement (not a safe haven), Jim's cost-of-production model for valuing Bitcoin, and why Ethereum's dominance in tokenization matters far more than short-term price action. Most compellingly, Jim argues that today's Bitcoin prices sit at historical support levels used by the most efficient miners, and that Ethereum's position as the tokenization standard is nearly unshakeable.

Donald Trump has been all over the place on the global oil shock created by his war amid Iran's closing of the Strait of Hormuz. Earlier this week he angrily claimed that the price hikes are a small price to pay for world peace, adding: “ONLY FOOLS WOULD DISAGREE!” But on Thursday he offered some bizarre new spin, claiming that the U.S. “is the largest Oil Producer in the World, by far, so when oil prices go up, we make a lot of money.” The idea that “we” all benefit prompted intense criticism and underscores his chaotic approach to this fiasco. Meanwhile, CNN reports that Trump officials have started to “panic” and are in a state of “alarm” about the situation, even as its global impact is rapidly worsening. We talked to international relations expert Nicholas Grossman, who's been arguing that the Iran saga is catching Trump off guard. We discuss why the oil shock's consequences are so dramatic, how this all reveals the limits to Trump's bullying powers, and what it all says about MAGA's tendency to underestimate resistance to its designs.
