Podcasts about Reality Check

Chris from Alabama absolutely unloads on the Packers fan base in one of the most passionate calls we've had all season. After a meaningless Week 18 loss to the Vikings with Clayton Tune under center, the discourse has gotten out of control—and Chris isn't having it anymore. Three Hall of Fame quarterbacks in 30 years, consistent playoff appearances, and fans are acting like we're the Cleveland Browns? The conversation dives deep into the Matt LaFleur debate, examining why the criticism doesn't hold up under scrutiny. We break down the injury context that nobody wants to acknowledge—losing Tucker Craft, Micah Parsons, and Jaire Alexander for the season isn't something you just overcome. Plus, an honest discussion about Matthew Golden that might ruffle some feathers: is he struggling to grasp the offense, and was that first-round pick really the right call? We also tackle the offensive line question heading into the playoffs—Morgan or Rasheed at left tackle?—and preview what it's going to take to beat Chicago in the Wild Card round. It's time to stop moping and start believing. We're in the playoffs. Let's act like it. This episode is brought to you by PrizePicks!

We're not doing the usual “new year, new you” nonsense. Samantha lays out a radically practical (and deeply spiritual) approach to creating a year of focus, clarity, and momentum: start with identity, not goals.After hosting two in-person VIP Days—whiteboard sessions where clients map everything from vision and leadership identity to team hires, fires, and brand ecosystems—Samantha noticed the same pattern: most people try to “do” their way into results… without ever becoming the person who can hold those results.In this episode, you'll learn how to define the identity you're stepping into, run a 2025 Reality Check using your calendar and camera roll, and use the Be–Do–Have framework to change your self-concept so your habits (and results) stop collapsing like a cheap lawn chair.If you want 2026 to reward you, it's going to require discernment, discipline, and the guts to cut what drains you—even if it's profitable. KEY TOPICS:Why 2026 will reward leaders who are self-led, focused, and radically clearThe real meaning of “clear your channel, change your life”What Samantha does inside a VIP Day (identity, vision, ecosystem, team, systems)How to define your next-level identity (sensory + embodied, not vague)The trap of “I want a million dollars/downloads” without identity alignmentThe 2025 Reality Check: using your Google Calendar + camera roll as dataThe green/red method: what energized you vs. what drained youWhy you must stop keeping work just because it makes money“Pruning” your life without making it dramatic: letting things fall awayBe–Do–Have: why behavior change fails without self-concept changeHow identity creates consistency (and why “motivation” is overrated)Samantha's athlete story: “I became an athlete before I looked like one”Treating your energy like a business resource—and protecting it accordinglyWebsite: www.voiceandvisibility.comNewsletter: https://voiceandvisibility.myflodesk.com/optinFollow Samantha on Instagram: www.instagram.com/thesamanthawarrenFollow Samantha on Tiktok: www.tiktok.com/voiceandvisibilityOwn It with Samantha Warren, identity work 2026, goal setting mindset, how to change your identity, be do have method, self-concept transformation, leadership identity, discipline and consistency, protect your energy, focus and clarity, annual review exercise, reality check exercise, Google Calendar audit, personal growth strategy, entrepreneur mindset, spiritual entrepreneur, thought leader strategy, visibility and impact, habits vs identity, stop self-sabotage, manifestation and identity

On Black Monday, the Jets and Giants seasons officially come to an end, and the focus shifts from speculation to hard truths. The Giants retain Joe Schoen in the name of stability, while the Jets face tougher questions after another embarrassing finish. The conversation centers on continuity versus chaos, why front offices crave stability when hiring a head coach, and whether hope and faith are enough to sell a broken fan base. Plus, a blunt reaction to Aaron Glenn's “trust me” answer, why belief without evidence falls flat, and how both franchises now face defining decisions at quarterback that will shape the next decade.

A brilliant away performance and a flat derby defeat. Another reminder that following Dundee United is never straightforward…

Welcome to the DFO Rundown with Jason Gregor and Jeff Marek!The Carolina Hurricanes have started to fall-off defensively. Some key injuries throughout their lineup have caused a defensive breakdown. The Winnipeg Jets are crashing, after being President's Trophy winners last season the Jets are currently dead-last in the NHL. Will a lottery pick save them, can they spend with the rest of the NHL, and will they solidify their roster to make a run this year? Logan Stanley and John Beecher both got handed one-game suspensions for sucker punches. The standings are still very close with the majority of teams still in contention for the playoffs. The Pacific Division might be the weakest division in the NHL right now with every team having a negative goal differential. Marek loves the play of Seattle Kraken forward Jacob Melanson. Could he be an identity builder in Seattle?Marek and Gregor go through each Eastern Conference team and breakdown if they are for real or if they need some more time. Pat joins the show for Buy or Sell: Recent injuries being a concern for Olympic rosters?Ivan Demidov making the Calder Trophy a race?Carolina winning the Metro?

In this January 2 episode of The Daily Herold, Jon Herold delivers a candid, free-flowing broadcast that blends lighthearted banter with sharp skepticism about politics, media, and public narratives. Jon opens with audience interaction and sponsor reads before diving into financial updates, including national debt figures, Bitcoin pricing, precious metals, and frustration over the long-stagnant DOGE savings tracker, which finally updates with what he views as an underwhelming result. From there, the show moves into critiques of federal agencies, government accountability, and the idea that citizens are expected to be grateful for minimal progress. Jon challenges the notion that “we are the news now,” questioning whether alternative media truly represents the people or simply replaces old gatekeepers with new ones. The episode also covers Trump Truth Social posts, Iran rhetoric, Ukraine peace claims, Venezuela signaling openness to the U.S., activist judges, abortion statistics, tariffs, and cultural commentary. Jon closes by reflecting on Badlands Media programming plans, audience engagement, and ideas for future call-in formats, keeping the tone conversational, skeptical, and grounded.

Events sit at the crossroads of joy and heartburn for B2B marketers. The magic of getting customers together in real life is real, and so is the pain when sales skips the pre-work and ROI gets fuzzy. With every dollar under scrutiny, CMOs are treating events as strategic bets that have to earn their spot on the plan. In this episode, Drew talks with Charles Groome (Insightful), Jamie Gier, and Lorie Coulombe (Equity Shift) about how they decide which events to do, design experiences people remember, and turn field time into pipeline. They cover event portfolios, sales pre-work, and the simple tools that keep everyone aligned before, during, and after the show. In this episode:  Charles sorts events into three buckets, leans into a listening circuit with smaller meetups, and looks at target-account impact to decide where bigger bets belong.  Jamie frames events around getting discovered, creating memorable experiences, and driving deals, with customers on stage and pods focused on key accounts.  Lorie sets clear goals for each event, does deep homework on audiences and geographies, and locks in sales pre-work and follow-up expectations. Plus:  Build an event portfolio that blends big shows, listening trips, CABs, and customer moments.  Use themes, news hooks, and customer voices to stand out in crowded halls and drive recall.  Align sales and marketing via pods, shared KPIs, and simple scoreboards.  Tighten spend with regional focus, partner co-hosting, and clear criteria. If events are on your 2026 budget and you want them to pay in pipeline, this episode will help you pick, plan, and prove them with more confidence.  For full show notes and transcripts, visit https://renegademarketing.com/podcasts/ To learn more about CMO Huddles, visit https://cmohuddles.com/

Sometimes you have to leave home to see it clearly.In this episode of The Common Knowledge Podcast, Marcus L-Spade Johnson sits down with L. Maxwell to break down the chaos of 2025 — the Trump administration's contradictions, the endless culture-war distractions, and the uncomfortable truths Americans avoid when they're too close to the noise.From living overseas and watching America from the outside, to questioning the narratives we're sold at home, this conversation is about perspective, accountability, and why reality hits different when you step back.This isn't partisan spin.It's a reality check.#CommonKnowledgePodcast#DistanceBringsClarity#2025InReview#RealityCheck#PoliticalPodcast#ExpatPerspective#AmericanPolitics#TruthOverTribalism#CultureVsReality

In today's episode, I'm catching up with you after the holidays and getting real about why this Christmas felt different, what 2025 taught me during my first full year doing this full-time, and why “pivot” is the word I'm taking into 2026.I talk about burnout, people-pleasing, stepping back from social media, and why sometimes the universe reroutes you instead of stopping you. I also break down moments from The Kardashians finale that unexpectedly resonated with me, including resilience, family dynamics, and learning when to try again — just differently.Then we jump into Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, where I unpack why certain dynamics aren't landing this season, my honest take on Boz's corporate/producer energy, the Dorit–Amanda lunch moment that didn't math, Kyle and Morgan still dancing around the truth, and why the show may be overdue for a cast shake-up.I wrap things up with some quick Bravo thoughts, a look ahead to what's coming in 2026, and an idea I've been sitting with about showing up more vulnerably with you all — because this community deserves it.We Need To Talk About This!

Send us a textIn this episode of Game For All Seasons with Coach E, the crew closes out the year with a wide-ranging, unfiltered conversation — the kind of real dialogue you won't get from highlight shows or headline chasers.We open the episode with a live phone interview with longtime friend Christian Wise Smith, who announces his candidacy for Georgia Labor Commissioner — a role in which he would become only the second Black person ever elected if he wins. The conversation dives into politics, labor, leadership, and community impact, offering meaningful insight beyond surface-level political talk.Coach E sets the holiday tone with a holiday party recap and reflections on transitioning into the new year, before the conversation shifts into sports. The crew breaks down boxing culture and Jake Paul, including Anthony Joshua's knockout, contract clauses, legacy debates, and whether influencer boxing is helping or hurting the sport. Real boxing comparisons follow, featuring Bud Crawford, Canelo Alvarez, Floyd Mayweather, Tyson Fury, and more — separating hype from true skill.From there, the crew tackles Myles Garrett's historic, record-breaking season and why it continues to be overlooked, reacts to the viral DK Metcalf fan interactions, and addresses the growing NFL quarterback pipeline crisis. The discussion digs into leadership, accountability, player development, and why fan patience runs out when expectations don't match on-field results.As always, the episode closes with the Post Game Word — “Where Do We Go From Here?” — challenging listeners to focus on real goals for 2025, not just short-lived New Year's resolutions.This episode is about truth over comfort, conversation over clicks, and perspective over noise.Tap in, get inspired, and get your weekly dose of game.

Doc Walker welcomes David Aldridge of The Athletic to react to the Commanders' 30–23 loss to the Cowboys on Christmas Day, breaking down what the result says about Washington at this stage of the season. The conversation then pivots to the NBA, as Doc and Aldridge share their takeaways from the marquee Christmas Day matchups and what stood out as the league took over the holiday spotlight.

Chris Cuomo responds directly to YouTube comments and viewer pushback in a holiday-week comments episode, addressing reactions to his takes on rage bait, Trump, Venezuela, due process, and whether constant outrage actually helps Democrats win power. He explains why condemning Trump at maximum volume may feel righteous but often fails politically, and why selective outrage — especially around war, deportation, and national security — undermines credibility across party lines. Chris also answers comments about his clashes with media figures like Don Lemon, Jim Acosta, and Mehdi Hasan, reflects on how algorithms reward anger over judgment, and explains why he refuses to build a personal brand around hate or tribal loyalty. He closes with a Christmas message about generosity, independence, and resisting the pressure to let politics turn every disagreement into a moral war.

This week on Practically Political, the gang reunites with a familiar voice—Carrie Sheffield returns for a lively holiday debate that doesn't pull any punches.With Trump's approval numbers hitting historic lows and 75% of Americans feeling the economy is on the wrong track, Dave, Kurt, Ashley, and Carrie dig into whether the administration can course-correct before the 2026 midterms. Is "blame Biden" messaging running out of runway? And why does it feel like we're watching a political rerun of 2022—just with different jerseys?The conversation heats up over tariff chaos (Liberation Day, anyone?), the summer deadline Republicans face to turn kitchen-table concerns around, and why credit cards are doing the heavy lifting this holiday season.Then the panel pivots to Ukraine, where Trump's "bromance diplomacy" has hit a wall. With Russia publicly dunking on peace talk progress, the hosts debate whether Tomahawk missiles could force Putin's hand—or open Pandora's box.Topics covered:Trump's cratering poll numbers and the "don't gaslight the voters" problemTariff whiplash: courage or chaos?The summer 2026 deadline for economic vibes to shiftUkraine stalemate: can anyone move the needle?Why China is quietly winning the global perception gameGuest: Carrie Sheffield (Independent Women's Forum)Starting January 9th, 2026—Practically Political goes weekly!

It's Episode 400. A milestone. And while the rest of the world is checking out for the holidays, the machinery of war is heating up. Host Paul Rieckhoff breaks down a chaotic weekend where the "Peace President" launched strikes in Syria, threatened Venezuela with a new "Golden Fleet," and suspended offshore wind farms—all while Congress has left town. This isn't a silent night; it's a loud, potentially violent shift in American foreign policy occurring in the shadow of the holidays. Then, a special message from a true Independent American.

Joe Pags cuts through the noise on the Epstein files, explaining why they're not nearly as damning as the left wants them to be. He plays the canned responses from Kamala Harris on why her DOJ released nothing for four years, then zeroes in on a moment where Mike Johnson may have accidentally revealed more than intended. Pags says it plainly: release them all and let society decide. Then Kay Hill joins the show with a smart, must-hear breakdown of marijuana rescheduling—why some drugs are legal while others aren't, how opioids compare to marijuana, and what the shift really means. With firsthand knowledge of the industry as a tobacco farmers wife, Kay explains it in a way you've likely never heard. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Joe Pags calls out Jasmine Crockett's attempt to sound relatable, digging into her high-end background and eye-popping net worth and asking the question many viewers are wondering: how did she really make that money? Then Pags breaks down how the Trump administration is actually enforcing immigration law, as JD Vance, Tom Homan, and Kristi Noem speak out about encouraging self-deportation and helping families do it legally and safely. Finally, a curious new development in the Brown University shooting raises serious red flags — and Pags asks what might be getting covered up and what the real story could be. A sharp, headline-driven hour packed with politics, immigration enforcement, accountability, and unanswered questions. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

(I have a early present for you - download your 2026 Goals & Intentions here: https://thequeenofconfidence.com/2026-goals-and-intentions/ OK! Back to the ass-kicking…How badly do you actually want the life you say you want? This episode is a direct conversation about commitment, purpose, and the uncomfortable truth most people avoid. I'm not here to motivate you. I'm here to ask you a question that changes everything. Because most people will never achieve their dreams. Not because they can't, but because they aren't willing to do what it takes. In this episode, I talk about the difference between a pipe dream and a mission. Why words mean nothing without action. Why comfort keeps you stuck. And why the people you admire are willing to do things most people won't. I share my own story, the trauma I survived, the clarity I have about why I'm here, and why I refuse to live a small life. Not because it's easy, but because the mission is bigger than me. This is an end-of-year conversation. The kind that asks you to get honest with yourself before you carry excuses into another year. In this episode, we cover: • Why most people never follow through on their vision • The difference between wanting something and being committed to it • Why motivation fades but purpose doesn't • What comfort and safety are actually costing you • Why proximity, mentorship, and investment matter • What you're willing to do when it actually matters If this episode hits, let me know.

The holiday season is supposed to feel magical…So why does it often feel exhausting, overwhelming, and emotionally loaded?In this honest and laugh-out-loud conversation, Brittany Anderson and Christina Lecuyer unpack the real side of the holidays — the pressure, the expectations, the corporate gift chaos, and the quiet guilt that sneaks in when you start doing things differently.From navigating family dynamics and redefining traditions, to why “cash is king” might actually be the most thoughtful gift of all, this episode is a permission slip to stop performing December and start honoring what actually feels good.This isn't about canceling Christmas or burning down traditions.It's about choosing yourself, protecting your energy, and creating holidays that align with the season of life you're in now.If December feels like a full-contact sport — this episode is for you.About Brittany and Christina:Meet Brittany and Christina, your dynamic podcast hosts who bring their unique blend of expertise, passion, and life experience to every conversation.Brittany, affectionately known as Britt, mom, mommy, bruh, and Queen, lives in Vancouver with her husband and their three fantastic kids (tweens and teens, hence the playful nicknames).

Most business owners end the year searching for tactics, but the real growth comes from getting clear on why you're in business in the first place. In this episode, I walk through the turning points that helped me reconnect with my own motivations and explain how easy it is to drift into old goals or other people's expectations without noticing. As you get ready for a new year, this conversation will help you zoom out, reset your direction, and make sure the business you're building actually matches the life you want.Takeaways• Why you need to revisit your core motivations at the end of the year• How drifting into old goals or others' expectations can derail your business• The role your psychological drivers play in every major decision• How to build next year around the life you actually want to live

Attention turns to Wolves and what comes next for Liverpool. Can they impose themselves early, manage games better, and avoid another nervous finish?

A classic TRM episode that starts with Tom's ill-fated attempt to cross a flooded Snoqualmie River (spoiler: no walking on water) and turns into a timely lesson on market returns, diversification, and why comparing your portfolio to headline numbers is usually a mistake. Don and Tom unpack eye-popping 2025 performance across U.S., international, bonds, and small-cap value, warn against recency bias and overpriced active funds, and take several listener calls on Roth conversions, bad custodians, debt forgiveness taxes, and rollover mechanics.

If you're nearing retirement and uneasy about the math, you're not alone. Don and Tom tackle the uncomfortable reality that most near-retirees haven't actually run the numbers—and many won't like what they see when they do. Drawing on Vanguard data and real-world client experience, they break down three practical ways to shrink a retirement gap: working longer (but not necessarily full-time), thoughtfully tapping home equity, and spending less before and during retirement. 0:06 Opening and the retirement gap problem 0:52 Podcast platforms, Apple vs Spotify, and Don's short-story empire 4:08 How TRM ranks among investing podcasts and why that still feels surreal 5:24 Vanguard data: only 40% of near-retirees are on track 6:51 Kids, money, and why retirement math gets uncomfortable fast 7:51 Strategy #1: Working longer (and why part-time can be powerful) 9:41 Purpose, boredom, and the underrated psychology of retirement 10:00 Strategy #2: Home equity as a retirement resource 11:12 Downsizing, renting, HELOCs, and reverse mortgage trade-offs 13:05 Strategy #3: Spending less—before and during retirement 14:29 Reverse mortgage costs, limits, and real-world implications 17:01 Social Security timing and when immediate annuities actually help 18:40 Inflation risk, fixed income streams, and practical trade-offs 19:02 Listener Q: AVGE vs DFAW and understanding underlying holdings 21:48 Listener Q: Aggressive Roth portfolios intended for heirs 25:30 Listener Q: Washington 529 plans and GET vs traditional 529s 27:32 Listener Q: Quantum computing (short answer: no) 28:59 Sector investing, AI hype, and why diversification wins Learn more about your ad choices.
