Ricketts got fired up when we asked him about something Dan Osborn said the other day!
Todd Ricketts — Chicago Cubs co-owner and founder of Freespoke, the search engine that labels news sources with media bias ratings — joins the Chuck Toddcast for a wide-ranging conversation that bridges the increasingly intertwined worlds of media, technology, and professional sports. Ricketts makes the case that when people are given genuinely good information from across the ideological spectrum, they tend to arrive at good answers — and that Freespoke's mission is to present all sides and then get out of the way, rather than letting ad sales determine what news you see. He pushes back on the idea that the market alone can solve the data privacy crisis, arguing data may eventually need to be regulated like a utility but that nothing changes until there's a major "event" that creates real public groundswell. Ricketts is candid about Freespoke's challenges — paywalls remain a real obstacle, the left/right labeling is imperfect and done by outside groups, and the political landscape itself is shifting in ways that scramble the traditional categories . He observes that podcasts have become a primary news source because people clearly hunger for long-form content with nuance, that politicians are now visibly afraid of giving long answers because they might get clipped, and that legacy media still doesn't seem to understand why its audience has migrated elsewhere. The second half pivots into the business of running a baseball team, and Ricketts brings the same straight-talking pragmatism to MLB's looming economic crisis. He argues you cannot sell a salary cap to MLB owners without genuine revenue sharing, because if the league itself isn't competitive then everyone eventually loses — including the owners writing the biggest checks. Players currently take roughly 48% of revenue, a number he expects to climb to around 52% in the next deal, and Ricketts is honest that half of MLB's franchises are still essentially mom-and-pop operations even as private equity money is rapidly entering the sport. He talks about the difficulty of running any sports team in 2026 because fans genuinely feel like they own the franchise, why ownership groups are increasingly building entire entertainment districts around their ballparks to control the fan experience end-to-end, and the painful broadcast rights question every team is wrestling with: fans have cut the cord, the old TV economics no longer work, and ownership has to be flexible with new broadcast partners even as they ask themselves whether season ticket holders should be entitled to free access to every game. Ricketts closes by laying out what would qualify as a disappointing season for the Cubs — a sober assessment from an owner who has watched the economics of his sport, and the media landscape his business depends on, both transform at the same time.

Chuck Todd opens with what he calls the unmistakable arrival of a "YOLO caucus" in the Senate — a growing number of congressional Republicans who are simply done capitulating to Trump, evidenced by John Thune publicly declaring there's no need to "weaponize" the DNI position and by the broader sense that the non-Trump part of the GOP is openly preparing to move on. He argues Trump is doing everything possible to accelerate his own lame duck status: he's politicizing America's 250th anniversary in ways that genuinely alarm vulnerable Republicans, he failed to engage any of the former presidents in the 250th planning, and he's creating Marie Antoinette-style "let them eat cake" optics by celebrating himself at a moment of real economic pain for ordinary Americans. Trump's treatment of CNN's Kaitlan Collins was outrageous, his cranky behavior with the press is a tell that things aren't going well, and his decision to formally nominate Todd Blanche for Attorney General has essentially zero chance of confirmation — Blanche has burned his bridges in the Senate and the doomed January 6th weaponization fund was reportedly his idea in the first place. It's almost as if Trump is begging to put a neon "I'm a lame duck" sign on the White House. Chuck then turns to California, where ballots are still being counted at a pace that he says is actively eroding public trust in the democratic process itself — the state desperately needs to find a way to count faster — and notes that CA-06 was drawn as a safe Democratic seat but the top two finishers right now are both Republicans, while Spencer Pratt looks safer in the LA mayoral race than Steve Hilton does in the governor's race. He closes with a fascinating analysis of the Graham Platner situation in Maine, where Janet Mills' decision to leave her name on the ballot has created a Nikki Haley-style protest vote opportunity for nervous Democrats — Mills didn't bow out in disgrace so her floor is high, and if she pulls 25% or more in the primary, Chuck predicts very real conversations about replacing Platner will begin. The number to watch is ME-02: if Platner underperforms there, it's the clearest red flag that a candidate Democrats once viewed as a slam-dunk pickup is now in serious trouble. Then, Todd Ricketts — Chicago Cubs co-owner and founder of Freespoke, the search engine that labels news sources with media bias ratings — joins the Chuck Toddcast for a wide-ranging conversation that bridges the increasingly intertwined worlds of media, technology, and professional sports. Ricketts makes the case that when people are given genuinely good information from across the ideological spectrum, they tend to arrive at good answers — and that Freespoke's mission is to present all sides and then get out of the way, rather than letting ad sales determine what news you see.

National Review Senior Editor Charles C.W. Cooke, who also hosts the Charles C.W. Cooke Podcast, fills in for Jim on Wednesday's 3 Martini Lunch. Join Charlie and Greg as they dig into the heinous allegations against Israel by New York Times columnist Nicholas Kristoff, Biden Homeland Security Sec. Alejandro Mayorkas regretting not acting sooner to secure the border, California Democrat Xavier Becerra's pathetic plea for only a few tough questions from the media, and more.First, Charlie and Greg slam Kristof's column accusing Israel of horrific abuses against Palestinian prisoners, including claims involving trained dogs. They contrast those allegations with newly detailed reports documenting the brutal atrocities committed by Hamas during the October 7, 2023 terrorist attacks on Israel.Next, they roll their eyes as former DHS Sec. Mayorkas admits the Biden administration should have acted sooner to control the border. But he still ultimately blames Congress and says he is very proud of the executive orders Biden issued in the summer of 2024 to reduce the chaos. Charlie shreds Mayorkas' argument and explains how the border crisis was intentional.Then, they laugh at California gubernatorial candidate Xavier Becerra asking a reporter to limit the number of difficult questions. Charlie explains why the moment perfectly captures the modern left's expectations of media coverage.Finally, they react to the winner of the Democratic U.S. Senate primary in Nebraska planning to drop out of the race and endorse the "independent" candidate.Please visit our great sponsors:QuoMoney is on the line.

The BioprogressiveTheory Revisited | Orthodontics In Interview | Sergio Sambataro "Whenyou say Class II, to me, you say nothing. We must look for the etiology of themalocclusion — not just the teeth, but the function behind them." "Ifyou extrude the upper molar, the condyle goes downward, and you have morevertical growth of the ramus. Ricketts showed this very clearly back in the 60sand we have published the same result at the University of Milan." "Oneof the principles in Class II correction is: first open the bite, and thencorrect the overjet. This is not just mechanics — it is logic." "Satoonce said — if you ask why he doesn't use retainers, he answers with anotherquestion: why do you use retainers? Because you know your job is notstable." I'm joined by Dr. Sergio Sambotaro from Sicily, for adeep dive into Bioprogressive Orthodontics, principles established by Rickettsand still debated today. We explore the cause of a malocclusion from abioprogressive perspective, the focus on vertical facial types determiningtreatment mechanics and anchorage. We examine the decompression theory of the ClassII case, and the role of the cervical headgear and utility arches. We turn tothe mechanics of sectional treatment over full-arch straight wire, and whereTADs fit in with the bioprogressive philosophy. We tackle the contestedevidence around transpalatal arch anchorage, and what the research may bemissing. Please like and subscribe if you find it useful!

On this episode of Main Street Matters, Elaine Parker sits down with Todd Ricketts to discuss his latest venture, FreeSpoke—a new search engine designed to challenge Big Tech by prioritizing transparency, privacy, and unbiased information. Ricketts explains how FreeSpoke differs from platforms like Google and ChatGPT, breaking down concerns about algorithmic bias, AI-driven search results, and the growing influence of large language models on public perception. The conversation explores how FreeSpoke labels news sources across the political spectrum, giving users a clearer view of competing perspectives and helping them make informed decisions. They also dive into the broader implications for small businesses, the startup climate, and the future of online information. Plus, Ricketts shares his outlook on the economy, government spending, and what it will take for innovation to thrive in today’s tech landscape. If you’re concerned about Big Tech’s influence, AI bias, and the future of search, this is a must-listen episode.

On the night of March 16, 1995, six teenage boys left a house party in Pickering, Ontario and headed toward the East Shore Marina at Frenchman's Bay. They told friends they'd be back before sunrise. None of them were ever seen again.Jay Boyle, 17. Chad Smith, 18. Robbie Rumboldt, 17. Jamie Lefebvre, 17. Michael Cummins, 17. Danny Higgins, 16.Known collectively as the Lost Boys of Pickering or the Frenchman Bay Six, their disappearance remains one of Canada's most baffling unsolved cases thirty years later.In this episode, we walk through the full timeline of that night, from the party to the marina, the surveillance footage that captured three of the boys entering the property at 1:48 a.m., and the unidentified individuals recorded on that same footage just minutes later.We examine the thirty-six-hour delay before police launched a search, the massive air, land, and water operation that followed, and the single piece of physical evidence ever recovered — a gas can found twelve days later on the American side of the lake near Wilson, New York.We dig into the official theory from the Durham Regional Police Service, that the boys stole a fourteen-foot Boston Whaler and capsized on the frigid waters of Lake Ontario, and we examine the serious questions raised by private investigator Bruce Ricketts, who spent over thirteen years working the case without pay before his death in January 2024. Ricketts challenged nearly every aspect of the investigation, from the cancelled sidescan sonar search to the surveillance video that police later claimed didn't exist in their records, to the human remains found in the Niagara River in 1998 that the Boyle family didn't learn about for fifteen years.No bodies. No boat. No wreckage. No clothing. No personal effects. Six teenagers, gone without a trace. This is a case defined not by what was found, but by what wasn't, and by the questions that three decades of silence have never answered.If you have information about this case, contact the Durham Regional Police Service at 905-579-1520, extension 2511, or submit an anonymous tip to Durham Regional Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS. Case reference number 95-26936.
As Keir Starmer flies to Germany for the Munich Security Conference, Westminster Insider Host Sascha O'Sullivan finds out if the Prime Minister's time abroad has damaged him here at home – and if it has, if it's been worth it. Sascha spoke to half a dozen current or former Labour advisors or government insiders about Starmer's approach to foreign policy. With the help of POLITICO Foreign and Defense Correspondent Esther Webber, she pieces together Starmer's legacy on the world stage. Olivia O'Sullivan, director of UK in a Changing World at Chatham House, says the Prime Minister has managed to secure "the least worst option" with Donald Trump. And Peter Ricketts, former head of the U.K.'s diplomatic service, said the shift towards “a hyper-personalized world” demands Starmer's presence. “Unless you are in the room with Donald Trump, you're not influencing him," Ricketts added.

Episode 131 of Tablesetters is a reaction pod focused on a pivotal stretch of the offseason, as a major pitching commitment in Boston, a franchise-defining signing in Chicago, a stalled superstar market, and a rare ballpark adjustment collectively show how teams are adapting to risk, scarcity, and roster timing heading into 2026. We open in Boston, where the Red Sox are set to sign left-handed pitcher Ranger Suárez to a five-year, $130 million contract with no deferrals, no opt-outs, and no no-trade protection. The deal represents the largest free-agent commitment of Craig Breslow's tenure and a clear pivot back toward rotation strength after Boston stalled in its pursuit of an infield upgrade. Suárez joins a rotation led by Garrett Crochet and recently bolstered by Sonny Gray and Johan Oviedo, signaling a belief in run prevention, depth, and managed workloads over chasing innings volume. From there, we shift to Chicago, where the Cubs make the biggest offensive splash of their offseason by signing Alex Bregman to a five-year, $175 million deal with significant deferrals. We break down why this move reshapes the Cubs' lineup, how it reflects a philosophical shift from the Ricketts family, and what Bregman's arrival means for the infield picture alongside Dansby Swanson, Nico Hoerner, and Matt Shaw as Chicago pushes firmly into a win-now posture. Next, we zoom out to the top of the free-agent market, where Kyle Tucker remains unsigned. We discuss reports that the Mets have offered a short-term deal with a $50 million average annual value, while the Blue Jays have made a long-term offer, highlighting the growing divide between extreme AAV flexibility and traditional long-term guarantees — and why Tucker's decision could reshape the rest of the offseason. We close in Kansas City, where the Royals announce changes to the outfield dimensions at Kauffman Stadium, moving in the fences in both corners and the alleys while lowering wall height. We explore why this calculated adjustment is aimed at boosting offense without compromising pitching, how it aligns with the Royals' left-handed core, and what it says about teams looking for marginal gains beyond the roster itself. Steve and Devin connect the dots between market behavior, roster construction, financial flexibility, and environment, focusing on how these moves reflect a league increasingly split between certainty, creativity, and controlled risk. ⚾️ One week, four signals, and a clearer picture of how contenders are being built.
