In this episode we are joined by Richard Fisher (3-peat on the pod) looking back at 1926 as a pivotal year in golf, tracing the season from winter through autumn. We focus on the amateur game, the professional events, and the way golf fit into the wider sporting and political landscape of the year.We begin with the early amateur season, including the shared President's Putter at Rye and the Varsity match at Burnham & Berrow, where Cambridge win. We also discuss how much golf's leading amateurs play, the importance of caddies, and the many club and society matches that shape the year.We then move to the spring championships, including the arrival of Glenna Collett and other American women ahead of the Ladies' Championship, which is delayed by the General Strike.The episode also covers the amateur and professional championships in detail. We discuss Bobby Jones's remarkable Open qualifying round at Sunningdale, his victory at Royal Lytham & St Anne's, the Amateur Championship at Muirfield, George Von Elm's win in the US Amateur, and major professional events involving Walter Hagen, Abe Mitchell, and Sandy Herd... and of course the proto-Ryder Cup. We finish with the late-season fixtures, including the English Amateur, the US PGA and US Ladies' Championship, and the mixed foursomes at Worplesdon. We also reflect on the broader context of 1926: the rise of international golf, the role of the media, and how different the sport's structure and calendar were from today.

DRWarner Bros.' Zaslav Offers $68 Million to Buy Summer Campnew January 2026 employment agreement$96M: Make-Whole RSU award to CEO Daivd Zaslav of 1,963,465 shares; after January 2 Follow-On Option award of 3,052,734 options because share price is downUnder a new employment agreement executed on June 12, 2025, Zaslav received a special award of 20,898,776 stock options with an exercise price of $10.16 (~$400M). Additionally, on January 2, 2026, he was granted 3,052,734 follow-on stock options with an exercise price of $28.51 (~$40M). To address the higher exercise price of these options compared to the initial grant, Zaslav received 1,963,465 restricted stock units on January 5, 2026 (~$56M).The Compensation Committee: 23 meetings in 2025*Paul A. Gould, 80, 18 years tenureGould and Zaslav worked closely together at Discovery, Inc. for nearly 15 years.David Zaslav took the helm as President and CEO of Discovery, Inc. in January 2007.Paul Gould joined the Discovery, Inc. Board of Directors shortly after, serving as an independent director from 2007 until the company merged with WarnerMedia.Both men belong to the tight-knit professional circle surrounding cable pioneer and billionaire John Malone.Paul Gould has a long history as a trusted director across Malone's web of companies, serving for years on the boards of Liberty Global and Liberty Latin America.David Zaslav has publicly and frequently cited John Malone as his primary professional mentor.Their shared ties to Malone are so closely linked that in 2012, Zaslav partnered with other high-level executives to donate $1 million to the Cable Center specifically to build and name the John Malone Theater.Paul Gould has served as a Managing Director and Executive Vice President at Allen & Company, a premium boutique investment bank deeply embedded in the media and entertainment ecosystem. Through this avenue, Gould and Zaslav connect in two ways:Financial Advisory: Allen & Company has a long history of providing valuation opinions, advisory services, and market analysis for major transactions initiated by Zaslav during his career.The Sun Valley Conference: Allen & Company famously hosts the annual "Summer Camp for Billionaires" in Sun Valley, Idaho. As a prominent media mogul, Zaslav is a regular, high-profile attendee at this event, which is organized by Gould's firm.Kenneth W. LoweKen Lowe is the former Chair/CEO of Scripps Networks Interactive (the former parent company of massive lifestyle brands like HGTV, Food Network, and ID).The Link: In 2018—four years before the Warner Bros. deal even closed—Zaslav orchestrated Discovery's $14.6 billion acquisition of Scripps Networks. As a direct result of that blockbuster cable industry consolidation, Lowe joined Discovery Inc.'s board of directors. He and Zaslav had already been working together closely at the board level for years before the legacy company expanded into WBD.The board of AT&TRichard W. FisherOutside of WBD, Zaslav's connection to Fisher is rooted in Fisher's previous role as a member of the Board of Directors for AT&T. When Zaslav was hammering out the complex transaction to spin WarnerMedia away from AT&T, Fisher was one of the crucial board leaders on the other side of the table who evaluated and signed off on the deal. As part of the closing agreement, Fisher was designated by AT&T to transition directly over to the new WBD board.Debra L. LeeDebra Lee was the longtime Chair/CEO of BET Networks (Black Entertainment Television) from 2006 to 2018.Zaslav and Lee have long-standing commitments to The Paley Center for Media, sharing space as members of its highly prestigious Board of Trustees. Additionally, Lee served on the board of AT&T, meaning she was part of the corporate governance team that initially approved Zaslav's pitch to merge Discovery with WarnerMedia.Geoffrey Y. YangJust like Richard Fisher and Debra Lee, Yang's primary pre-WBD connection to Zaslav comes down to AT&T. Yang sat on AT&T's board during the high-stakes dealmaking window. Because of his background in digital media and venture capital, he was designated by AT&T leadership to transition to the WBD board to help Zaslav steer the newly formed company's streaming and direct-to-consumer technology strategies.The board that ignores Say on Pay votesAt our 2025 Annual Meeting held on June 2, 2025, we held an advisory vote on executive compensation, or "Say on Pay" vote, and a majority of the votes cast by stockholders were cast against our executive compensation program.Our executive compensation program is designed to pay for performance and effectively balance executive and stockholder interests. The Committee considered the outcome of the "Say on Pay" vote from the 2025 Annual Meeting, and while it continues to believe that our executive compensation structure, which includes long-term agreements with each of our NEOs and delivers a significant majority of NEO compensation in performance-based vehicles, is effective in meeting our compensation objectives, it took note of the negative 2025 "Say on Pay" vote when making compensation decisions after the 2025 Annual Meeting.The Dodd-Frank Act: "The shareholder vote … shall not be binding on the issuer or the board of directors of an issuer, and may not be construed as overruling a decision by such issuer or board of directors”Special meeting vote 4/23/26: Say on Pay 83% no6/9 AGM: ShareholdersPaul A.

Unlike a binding vote, advisory votes do not require the company or its board of directors to take a specific action. The company's board of directors may consider advisory votes and may follow up with other communications or dialogue with shareholders as part of its deliberative process in making policy decisions."The workers for being poor1,378 to 1 CEO pay ratio.Andrew M. Cuomo Joins the OKX Board of DirectorsThe worldMen GreedThe U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) In February 2025, OKX pled guilty in a U.S. federal court to operating an unlicensed money transmitting business and violating anti-money laundering (AML) laws.The U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) revealed that despite OKX having an "official policy" banning U.S. users, the exchange actively pursued U.S. customers and generated hundreds of millions in fees from them.Internal logs showed OKX employees explicitly telling U.S. clients how to bypass the exchange's own blocks—even telling a customer to "just put a random country" during identity verification.The exchange was used to facilitate over $5 billion in suspicious transactions and criminal proceeds, resulting in a staggering $504 million penalty.TrumpTrump has normalized crypto. Is it the path to the next financial collapse?Jon Ossoff Rips RFK Jr.'s ‘Foolish' Cutback To Cyclosporiasis Monitoring: Sen. Jon Ossoff says a cyclosporiasis outbreak spreading nationwide could be harder to track because the Trump administration changed CDC surveillance last year. In a letter to Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Ossoff argues that the CDC's FoodNet program (a public health network that monitors infections from multiple pathogens across CDC, USDA, FDA, and 10 states) stopped requiring monitoring cyclospora, and that the administration later made data collection optional at FoodNet sites for most pathogens (except Salmonella and E. coli).Elon Musk"ESG is the devil"A "scam" weaponized by "phony social justice warriors"Vivek RamaswamyThe author of Woke, Inc.founded an entire asset management firm (Strive) designed explicitly to offer "anti-woke" investment options that ignore ESG metrics in favor of pure profit.Ron DeSantisSpearheaded a massive legislative pushback against ESG in Florida, signing bills that banned state and local governments from using ESG factors when investing public funds or issuing bondsArgues ESG is a way to bypass voters and enforce a political agenda through corporate power.Peter ThielCalled ESG a "hate factory" used to control capital and punish companies that don't fall in line with mainstream corporate ideologyTariq Fancy (Former Head of Sustainable Investing at BlackRock)“Whistleblower”Called ESG a "dangerous placebo" that does nothing to actually fix the planet but allows Wall Street to charge higher fees while greenwashing their portfoliosMike PenceArgues that major Wall Street firms use ESG to enforce a radical left-wing agenda on everyday Americans, forcing companies to adopt policies that hurt the domestic energy sector.Glenn Hegar (Texas Comptroller)Created a blacklist of financial companies (including BlackRock) banned from doing business with the state of TexasCalled ESG an "opaque and perverse system" that violates fiduciary dutyAndy Puzder (Former CEO of CKE Restaurants/Hardee's and Carl's Jr.)Argued that forcing companies to focus on social goals instead of profits violates shareholder capitalism and ultimately hurts the economySenator Tom CottonAttacked ESG from a legal and regulatory standpoint.

He specializes in understanding the Chinese Communist Party and the Asian military balance.“The major threat elements that China is producing on a weekly, maybe monthly basis, ought to rate headlines on the major American television networks. Cable channels should have shows that specifically highlight these various threats, but they're not,” Fisher said. “The American public is relatively uninformed about the breadth and depth of these threats that are developing from China, Russia, North Korea, soon Iran, and the fact that they are all now in a state of coordination.”We discuss the nuclear coalition the Chinese regime is forming with other rogue states. We also discuss the global implications of the regime's military ambitions, from its space programs to its activity in the South China Sea.“We lose the battle of the South China Sea, we begin to lose the battle for freedom on Earth,” Fisher said.Views expressed in this video are opinions of the host and the guest, and do not necessarily reflect the views of The Epoch Times.

On today's show we are talking about the non headline revisions to economic data. I'm here to tell you beyond a shadow of a doubt that the US economy is in recession. What I'm sharing today is the good work that is done by Danielle DiMartino Booth. She is the CEO and chief strategist at QI Research. Previously Danielle was at the Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas for nine years working under Richard Fisher. This past FOMC meeting marked a significant departure from previous meetings where Fed chairman Jerome Powell described a change in Fed posture. This was not part of the initial remarks or the press release, but rather a response during the question period. He said that the Fed was shifting posture from fighting inflation to a return to its dual mandate to both maximize and maintain price stability. That means that the Fed is seeing something in the employment data that is concerning. On this show I've been reporting inconsistencies in the employment data for many months. Well now we have one more data point that categorically shows what is really happening in the jobs market. Every month the BLS puts out the payroll establishment survey and they publish the GDP for the nation. In addition to the payroll survey, the census bureau also conducts their own survey once a quarter. The data from the Census Bureau is much more comprehensive than the BLS survey. We also experience frequent revisions to the payroll survey. What the census data shows is that in the third quarter of 2023 instead of having 640,000 jobs created during that three month period, the economy actually lost 190,000 jobs in that time period. This is not a small difference. The narrative in the mainstream media is that the economy is strong and the consumer is resilient and the jobs market is strong. If the true data was being reported, I think it would be much more difficult to propagate that story.

We all know that climate change is coming for us. It's already here. But it's really, really hard to change people's actions, especially when those actions don't benefit the here and now, but matter most for the future. They require long views of time, the ability to not just imagine, but to care about people in the future. Why don't we do that now, and how do we get there? We're talking with Richard Fisher, author of The Long View: Why We Need to Transform How the World Sees Time.
Up until recently, runaway inflation was all anyone could talk about. Suddenly, now everyone is fixating on the surge in bond yields, worried that they'll continue moving even higher. Have we made a permanent shift to an era of higher cost of capital that will constrain economic growth? Or is this spike in yields a transitory one? And those hoping for a Fed pivot & a return to lower interest rates finally get their wish? For answers, we're fortunate to sit down with Danielle DiMartino Booth, CEO & Chief Strategist for Quill Intelligence. She was a former advisor to the Dallas Federal Reserve during the great financial crisis, working with Richard Fisher, and she's author of the book Fed Up.

In this episode we sink once again into the disgusting cesspool of corruption and abuse that is Prosperity Gospel. Our conduit into the effluent pipe straight to hell this time is the perpetually persistently pernicious perfidious perennial perpetrator and peddler of pestiferous peccadilloes on a path to perdition, Benny Hinn. Unlike all the other pieces of poo, I mean Prosperity Preacher's we've highlighted in the past, Benny is not your typical southern born Baptist raised narcissist with no conscience. He's an Israeli born Eastern Orthodox raised narcissist with no conscience.This episode will also feature guest appearances from faith healer Kathryn Kuhlman, kidnap faking evangelical preacher Aimee Semple McPherson, James Brown, Lady Ga Ga, Donald Trump and Fidel Castro.

In this episode, Xavier Bonilla has a dialogue with Richard Fisher about the long view and our future. They talk about how society started thinking more short-term and not long-term. They discuss the historical aspects of longtermism, positive outlooks for different futures, longtermism and capitalism, and how our politics has become more short-term. They talk about the evolutionary framework for foresight and longtermism, deep time both past and future, climate change, and many more topics.Richard Fisher is a senior journalist with the BBC-London.

Sea otters, American bison and grey wolves are among nine groups of animals that could help fight climate change. The team discusses the various attributes that make these groups particularly impactful, and they explain what we'd need to do to help populations grow.An ancient supermassive black hole that formed in the early moments of the universe has been spotted by the James Webb Space Telescope. The team explains how it might've formed so early into the universe's existence - and they discuss the mind-boggling prospect of black holes that are older than the universe.An immense sauropod dinosaur, Patagotitan mayorum, the largest known land-animal of all time, is currently towering above visitors to London's Natural History Museum. Rowan went to see the incredible beast up close, and asks palaeontologist Paul Barrett how sauropods got so big.A newly discovered “hat” has mathematicians all excited. For the first time, researchers have found a single shape that can be used to cover a surface without ever creating a repeating pattern. The team explains the shape, which apparently looks like a hat, and what it might be used for.Many of the problems we face in the world today are caused by our inability to think about the long-term future. But in this modern world where we're forced to think short-term, how do we escape this trap? Rowan asks Richard Fisher for help - he's just released a book titled The Long View: Why we need to transform how the world sees time.On the pod are Rowan Hooper, Chelsea Whyte, Alex Wilkins and Sam Wong.

A wide-ranging and thought-provoking exploration of the importance of long-term thinking. Humans are unique in our ability to understand time, able to comprehend the past and future like no other species. Yet modern-day technology and capitalism have supercharged our short-termist tendencies and trapped us in the present, at the mercy of reactive politics, quarterly business targets and 24-hour news cycles. It wasn't always so. In medieval times, craftsmen worked on cathedrals that would be unfinished in their lifetime. Indigenous leaders fostered intergenerational reciprocity. And in the early twentieth century, writers dreamed of worlds thousands of years hence. Now, as we face long-term challenges on an unprecedented scale, how do we recapture that far-sighted vision? Richard Fisher takes us from the boardrooms of Japan - home to some of the world's oldest businesses - to an Australian laboratory where an experiment started a century ago is still going strong. He examines the psychological biases that discourage the long view, and talks to the growing number of people from the worlds of philosophy, technology, science and the arts who are exploring smart ways to overcome them. How can we learn to widen our perception of time and honour our obligations to the lives of those not yet born?

NASA Administrator Bill Nelson had an unsettling welcome to the New Year. In an interview published on January 1st by Politico, the former U.S. senator announced that the Chinese Communist Party is preparing to colonize the Moon and may use force to deny us access to it. This is not exactly news as experts like Richard Fisher have been warning for years that the CCP is intent on dominating what it calls the “earth-Moon system” as part of Beijing's bid to control our planet. But U.S. policymakers – and particularly those involved with America's space programs – have for decades encouraged the public to believe leftist nostrums about the High Frontier being a pristine international “commons” reserved for peaceful exploration and scientific research. We're now in a real – and potentially deadly – space race with the Chinese. It's one we literally can't afford to lose. This is Frank Gaffney.

A common refrain among the market experts I talk with is that we can't be 'investors' in the current environment -- instead, we're all forced to be speculators, guessing what Fed Chair Jerome Powell and other The Federal Open Market Committee members are going to decide to do next. Because that's all that matters to price action these days. Like it or not, that's the world we're living in right now. So it makes all the sense in the world to tap the perspective of someone who knows the Fed inside & out -- which is why we're fortunate to have Danielle DiMartino Booth, CEO & Chief Strategist for Quill Intelligence joining us today.

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: Should we buy coal mines?, published by John G. Halstead on May 4, 2022 on The Effective Altruism Forum. At Effective Altruism Global, Will MacAskill proposed the idea of buying a coal mine in order to keep coal in the ground, as a potential longtermist megaproject. The idea was covered in a piece by Richard Fisher for the BBC here. There is a large literature in economics on the idea of reducing the supply of fossil fuels in the economics literature, and the idea recently received additional attention thanks to a post by Alex Tabarrok on the Marginal Revolution blog here. I have spent around 50 hours looking into whether it would be worth buying a coal mine. I talked to more than 10 experts about this. I have mainly focused on feasibility in the US and Australia because the project seemed more promising in those countries due to likely political and legal barriers in countries like India, China and Indonesia. I have concluded that: Buying a coal mine is much more expensive than it might at first appear due to costs to reclaim the land after mine closure and foregone royalty payments to the mine owner. Buying mines is legally impossible for some mines, and for others seems extremely practically difficult, for legal, political and cultural reasons. My impression is that there are few viable opportunities to buy coal mines in the world. The full costs of buying a mine would be in the hundreds of millions of dollars for a mine a similar size to a top 30 US coal mine. So, the barriers to buying just one mine are very high. For context, total global spending on climate philanthropy is $5-9 billion. So you could spend close to a tenth of global climate philanthropy buying just one coal mine. It is unclear whether buying a mine and retiring it would make much difference compared to the counterfactual, in the US at least, because coal demand there seems to be in structural decline. The counterfactual benefits seem larger in Australia because the coal industry is more buoyant, but, for that very reason, buying up coal mines would be much more politically difficult there. It seems likely that there are other better ways to limit coal production or consumption, such as political advocacy, or paying some lawyers to gum up the works. I think EA donors could have more impact through other projects. Buying up a coal mine might be a good option for donors who would otherwise have lower impact and have the time to identify some workable opportunities. This is a very quick write-up of my reasoning that I thought I would share in case anyone else had thought about looking into this area. I am optimising for speed and writing up my findings quickly, rather than referencing to back up my claims, doing lots of checking of my numbers, and asking for review before publishing. I am >75% sure that my central claims are correct. Thanks to Max Daniel, Abie Rohrig and Will MacAskill for comments and discussion. 1. Costs are much higher than they seem In his recent post on the promise of buying a coal mine, Alex Tabarrok noted that there is a coal mine for sale for $7.8m dollars. If you assume that this is the total cost of buying the mine and shutting it down, then doing so would be highly cost-effective. However, the true cost would be much higher than this. Reclamation costs Owners of coal mining leases have to pay ‘reclamation costs', which is the environmental cleanup of the mine: turning it into forest, a solar farm etc. In the US, the typical cost of reclamation is ~$10,000 per acre (report). For mines with data in the US, the size ranges from 1,000 acres to 40,000 acres. North Antelope Rochelle, the world's largest coal mine, is ~5,000 acres. So, the reclamation costs would range from $10m to $400m and would be $50m for North Antelope (calculations are here). For the McDowell mine listed ...

Well the Dow Jones got clobbered again today, down 252 points at the close The NASDAQ down about 55 The transports continue to get clobbered down another 146 points, decisively in bear market territory CNBC blamed the entire decline on jitters over North Korea's hydrogen bomb test I admit that this prospect is not good, but I don't believe that announcement was the reason for the decline The real problem is the Fed removing the monetary herion from the addicts on Wall Street and this is the withdrawal Former President and CEO of the Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas, spoke on CNBC yesterday and he admitted that the Fed "engineered a stock market rally" They wanted all this phony wealth to cause us to make irrational decisions That's what happened during the dot com bubble and to a greater extent during the housing bubble Here you have it from the words of a former Fed president, a voting member who voted for QE 1 & 2 who is saying that the Fed did this to create a "wealth effect" He even said, don't be surprised if the market goes down 20% - it's still overvalued - he admits the Fed was propping it up Obviously if the Fed removes the props the market will go down After Simon Hobbs asked Fisher if he is going to apologize, he said," Don't blame me, I voted against QE3!" He is throwing his colleagues, including Janet Yellen, under the bus Now that he is no longer at the Fed, he refers to it as a "giant weapon that is out of ammunition" The Fed still has ammo: cut rates (in this case, even to negative) and QE4, their big bazooka There's plenty of ammo left and it will be fired a lot sooner than people think Korea is an excuse, but Richard Fisher is letting the cat out of the bag, but no one in the media is picking up on this Also in the markets today, while stocks were going down, gold was going up - gold hit a 2-month high today As fast as it is going up in dollars, it is going up even faster in other currencies, like the Canadian dollar, which hit a 9-year low, the Australian dollar The yen was up - the dollar/yen is breaking down - to me that is a very scary proposition for the markets to see this strength in the Japanese yen Oil prices continued to drop, down another $2 today - we're trading below $34 Gold stocks were up - you'd think they would be up a lot more because mining costs are plunging and revenue is going up, but Wall Street is oblivious to the bargains that exist in the mining stocks We got a lot of economic news today and most of it was, as is typically the case, bad Yesterday vehicle sales were at a 6-month low Last year was a record for auto sales, but December was a 6-month low despite all the Christmas giveaways Meanwhile the inventory to sales ratio continues to rise - a new high since the 2008-2009 great recession Also GM got clobbered today, down about 4% - already down 9% for the year and down more than 20% from its 52-wk high - that is a bear market This is telling me that the auto bubble has popped There are going to be a lot of layoffs in the auto sector - good, high-paying jobs I have said that starting in January 2016 we would start to see layoffs because the numbers have been horrible Sure enough, Macy's today announced a restructuring, laying off thousands of workers because of disappointing sales throughout the year We will see a huge blow-up in the securitized market for auto loans They layoffs are coming - the low unemployment number is the rear view mirror Looking at the actual economy in the windshield is a disaster for jobs This is deja vu - in 2008 the subprime market had already exploded - the housing market problems should have been obvious Yet everybody said, "don't worry, it's contained." and I said why can't anybody see that everything I have been warning about for years is happening People were still denying what I was saying even as the financial crisis had already begun
