Rising fuel prices are making it more expensive to deliver the goods the UK economy relies on. We speak to an online clothing brand and a haulier about what this means for the cost of everyday goods. We speak to the boss of the company that has relaunched Jamie Oliver's 'Italian' on its plans for further expansion of the restaurant chain. And, Netflix dominates the streaming market. Can it also persuade us to watch the kind of digital content we usually associate with YouTube?

https://19-minutes.supercast.comRecord corn demand is supporting the grain markets, but additional acres, August rainfall, and harvest pressure could quickly change the outlook. Chris Barron is joined by Matt Bennett of agmarket.net to examine the crop, demand, and marketing risks heading into August 3-7.Matt discusses why he questions the USDA's current crop ratings and whether the national corn yield can exceed 183 bushels per acre. They examine the possibility of additional corn acres, exports running well ahead of last year, and why a smaller yield could create a much tighter balance sheet. They also explain why the longer-term corn story remains constructive even if prices face pressure before harvest.The conversation also covers wheat volatility related to Russia and Ukraine, soybean prices following their recent decline, strong domestic crush demand, and how a wetter August could affect soybean yield expectations. Matt closes with guidance for managing old-crop corn, harvest deliveries, basis, and on-farm storage without leaving too many bushels exposed.Topics include:USDA corn yield and acreage uncertaintyRecord domestic and global corn demandCorn exports running ahead of projectionsAugust weather and crop conditionsHarvest price and basis riskOld-crop corn still in storageWheat volatility and opportunities for cornSoybean prices and strong crush demandSouth American weather and El NiñoOn-farm storage and harvest marketing decisionsLearn more from Matt Bennett at agmarket.net.#GrainMarkets #CornPrices #SoybeanPrices

Back in the fall, Trump's NSPM-7 redirected the FBI, DOJ, and IRS toward "left-wing political violence," opening the door to labeling domestic groups terrorist organizations — despite three independent datasets (New America, CSIS, even the ADL!) showing right-wing violence outpacing left-wing violence by factors of 9-to-1 or greater.  Last week, Rubio's "Ministerial on the Resurgence of Political Terrorism" internationalized this McCarthy reboot. Central to the rhetoric of Rubio and Miller is framing leftist politics as being driven by envy and resentment rather than a response to inequality. Matthew traces this rhetoric, empirically contradicted by relative deprivation research, back through Nietzsche, Scheler, Schoeck, and Rand.  Four days after the Ministerial, the State Department's Cuba report named 70+ Americans — from spies to wedding guests — as one undifferentiated network, a scapegoat machine now churning out congressional subpoenas, a federal grand jury, and a widening dragnet.

For every dollar the world invests in protecting nature, it spends thirty dollars destroying it. In this episode of the Climate Correction Podcast, host Shannon Maganiezin sits down with two of the authors behind the United Nations Environment Programme's (UNEP) State of Finance for Nature 2026 report to unpack what that staggering imbalance means for biodiversity, climate resilience, economic stability, and the future of finance itself. The numbers are sobering: in 2023 alone, roughly $7.3 trillion flowed into nature-negative activities, while just $220 billion supported nature-based solutions.  Shannon is joined by Ivo Mulder, who leads UNEP's Climate Finance Unit and has helped unlock more than one billion dollars for sustainable agriculture, forestry, and restoration across developing countries. Ivo is one of the report creators. Ivo co-founded the Natural Capital Finance Alliance and the ENCORE tool, laying the groundwork for the Taskforce on Nature-related Financial Disclosures. Also joining the conversation is Michael König-Sykorova, Senior Project Manager at the Frankfurt School of Finance and Management and a leading expert in climate and nature finance data. Michael contributed to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change's (IPCC) Sixth Assessment Report and led key analytical components of the State of Finance for Nature 2026 report. He iwas lead author on this report and is also a founding member of the Climate Finance and Sustainability Centre at Makerere University in Uganda.  The conversation begins with Michael walking listeners through the scope and methodology of the report, including how the team defined and measured nature-negative finance across sectors, what qualifies as nature-based solutions finance, and how the two sides of the equation can be meaningfully compared. He shares what the data reveals about trends over time, whether progress is moving fast enough, and how the report's findings were validated through rigorous peer review.  Ivo then steps back from the numbers to explore what these findings signal about the trajectory of global finance. He examines whether nature-negative investments are starting to slow or still expanding, where the biggest synergies are emerging across the three Rio Conventions on climate, biodiversity, and land degradation, and what governments, public finance institutions, private investors, and financial institutions each need to take from this report. The discussion closes with a look at the financial instruments and emerging biodiversity finance mechanisms showing the most promise for scaling investment into nature-based solutions.  The takeaway is clear: the challenge isn't only how much we invest in protecting nature. It's where the rest of our money is going. Redirecting even a fraction of nature-negative flows could fundamentally reshape outcomes for climate, biodiversity, and global resilience.  Resources / Links:  UNEP – State of Finance for Nature 2026 (SFN 2026) and State of Finance for Nature 2023 (SFN 2023).  Interconnectivity between climate, nature & climate risk (including impacts on GDP)  IMF 2024 'Embedded in Nature'  SwissRe 2021 – The economics of climate change: No action not an option  Klusak et al, 2021 – Rising temperatures, falling ratings: the Effect of Climate Change on Sovereign Creditworthiness.

This edition of Idle Talk, from King's Auto Repair (West Reading), covers what local drivers are seeing every day: new vehicles are hard to find, prices are up, and payments are climbing. Tom and Ashley discuss real world examples like ordering delays, the cost of “average” vehicles, and why some shoppers end up buying whatever is available. The episode also tackles timely questions from callers: - Are manufacturers “rushing” cars to market and will quality suffer? - How long will gas vehicles realistically remain practical? - Why do EV fires make the news, and what's different about putting them out? - And a big one for the summer: what is “88 octane” fuel (E15), is it safe, and how does it differ from E85 Flex Fuel?   New cars can be “sold out” or not orderable—months-long waits are normal right now. If you want a specific trim or option package, expect delays or compromises. - Average payments are high. The show cites industry data putting average payments around: - New: ~$715/month   - Used: ~$532/month     (Great reminder that “not fancy” doesn't always mean “inexpensive” anymore.) - Buying “non-desirable” configurations can save money. Example: a manual transmission vehicle or an “oddball” car sitting on a lot (wrong brand dealership, uncommon package) may be discounted. - Concern about rushed production: the hosts haven't seen unusual recall trends tied to “rushing,” but warn that vehicles sitting unused can develop issues like tire flat-spotting/dry rot, wiper deterioration, and seal drying. - Gas vehicles aren't going away overnight. The conversation suggests hybrids are likely a practical bridge for many drivers due to cost, infrastructure, and real-world range/towing needs. - EV fire suppression is different. Battery thermal events may reignite and can require significant cooling; this is one reason these fires get attention. - Fuel clarity matters: 88 octane is not the same as E85. - “88 octane” is typically E15 (up to 15% ethanol), often OK for many 2001+ vehicles (verify).   - E85 is ~85% ethanol and is for Flex Fuel vehicles only.

From 1789 onward, French history became a breathtaking cycle of hubris and nemesis. Nowhere was this more striking than in the rise and fall of Napoleon Bonaparte. Rising rapidly through the revolutionary ranks to govern and pacify France, he ultimately crowned himself Emperor and crushed coalition after coalition in legendary battles. By 1812, his self-belief was god-like, his army worshipped him, and his hubris reached its absolute peak. Then came the fateful error: invading Russia. Underestimating his enemy, the vast distances, and the brutal winter—a mistake Hitler would famously repeat over a century later—he lost over half a million men in a campaign he never needed to fight. Though he clawed his way back once more, his nemesis was absolute. His final years were spent exiled on the windswept Atlantic island of St. Helena, where the man who once ruled Europe died broken, isolated, and miserable.

Kingsview Wealth Management CIO, Scott Martin, discusses rising market volatility, the outlook for Fed policy, and what technical indicators are signaling about investor sentiment. He argues recent swings in stocks like Apple (AAPL), Micron (MU), Marvell (MRVL), and AMD (AMD) create opportunities for long-term investors rather than reasons for concern.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – https://twitter.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on Facebook – https://www.facebook.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/schwab-network/ About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about

Unlocking new markets, from broadband to the moon The SpaceX IPO has renewed investor interest in the rapidly evolving space economy. But to understand the opportunity that space may present requires an understanding of launch costs and to what extent they can continue to decline. US Aerospace and Defense analyst Ron Epstein explains the economics underpinning the next phase of space development. Ron discusses how advances in rockets have already reduced launch costs from roughly $20,000 per kilogram to as little as $1,000-$2,000, with the potential to fall toward $100 per kilogram. The conversation explores the hurdles to and promise of further declines in costs, the importance of reusability and how dramatically lower launch costs, if achieved, could unlock new markets-from global broadband and orbital data centers to next-generation defense, space manufacturing, and lunar resource development. We also discuss some of the unique challenges space-based data centers-launch costs matter but so do cooling solutions.   "Bank of America" and “BofA Securities” are the marketing names for the global banking businesses and global markets businesses (which includes BofA Global Research) of Bank of America Corporation.

Rising artist Lenexx joins Gracias, Come Again for an inspiring conversation about culture, identity, family, and the musical movement she's creating. Born in Santiago, Dominican Republic, and raised in Jackson Heights, Queens, Lenexx opens up about her journey from living with her abuela while her mother worked tirelessly in New York to build a better life for the family, to arriving in the U.S. at just eight years old with dreams, questions, and endless possibilities. In this episode, Lenexx reflects on her Dominican upbringing, her mother's sacrifices, and how growing up in one of the most culturally diverse neighborhoods in the world shaped her as both a person and an artist. Surrounded by Dominican, Mexican, Colombian, Indian, and countless other communities, Jackson Heights became the foundation for her global perspective. She also shares the story behind her deep connection to Brazilian culture, explaining how her best friend introduced her to Brazilian music and traditions, inspiring her to learn Portuguese and eventually record music in Spanish, English, and Portuguese. Most importantly, Lenexx introduces listeners to Funketon, the genre she created by fusing Dominican rhythms, Brazilian funk, and New York energy into a sound that's entirely her own. As one of the pioneers of this emerging style, she's breaking musical boundaries while building a global fanbase. We also talk about her special relationship with Brazil, where she spent time immersing herself in the culture that has inspired so much of her music. During her stay, Brazilian fans embraced her wholeheartedly, showing immense love for both her artistry and her vision. That experience further cemented her connection to the country and reinforced her belief that music truly has no borders.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Renowned chef Nephi Craig (White Mountain Apache, Navajo) admits he hid his alcoholism fairly well as he was making a name for himself as a Native chef throughout the 2000s. His memoir, “Our Knives Will Save Us: Dispatches from a White Mountain Apache Chef“, details his arduous recovery and how food and the kitchen helped him figure out his purpose and path to healing. In the debut children’s novel by Christine Hartman Derr (Cherokee), “Raven, Rising“, baking was a favorite pastime for a young Cherokee girl until she is struck with sadness and anxiety at the thought of baking and the smell of ingredients like cinnamon, bread, and chocolate. She learns to cope with loss and works to make her way back to the kitchen. Chef Candace Stock (Ho-Chunk) is the executive chef of Salt + Scoria, a restaurant in the new Theodore Roosevelt Presidential Library in North Dakota. We'll talk with her about bringing Indigenous ingredients and flavors to the menu.

Photo: Santa Fe Indian School campus. (Courtesy Administration for Native Americans for Children & Families) U.S. Rep Melanie Stansbury (D-NM) introduced two bills this week to modernize the Bureau of Indian Education (BIE) and potentially bring higher teacher salaries and more federal funding for tribal schools. KUNM's Jeanette DeDios (Jicarilla Apache and Diné) has more. The Indigenous Students Excel through Parity Act and its supporting Act II bill would create a study under the Department of Interior (DOI) to recommend reforms in order to provide funds that could increase teacher pay, and provide more educational opportunities. An identical bill is sponsored in the Senate by U.S. Sens. Martin Heinrich (D-NM) and Cynthia Lummis (R-WY). DOI administers BIE, which funds 183 schools across the country. New Mexico has one of the highest concentrations of BIE-funded schools with 44. Despite this, Rep. Stansbury says BIE schools have traditionally been underfunded, but they are competing with state-funded schools to recruit teachers. “So what this bill would do is study the current formula funds that are allocated per student to these tribally controlled schools to evaluate one how to increase funding per student, how to address increasing teacher and staff pay, and how to make sure that those schools who have extra costs and needs can have their needs met.” Stansbury says the goal of the bills is to bring teacher salaries in tribal schools up to the same level as those in state-funded schools. “If you’re a teacher, I mean, think about it, and you really want to work in a tribal community, whether you are a Native person yourself or not. And you’re looking at the difference of getting paid, let’s say, $50,000 by the federal government versus going and teaching in APS (Albuquerque Public Schools) making $60,000, you know, you’re going to have to make that economic decision for yourself and your family, and so we don’t want teachers to have to make that decision. We want teachers to be teaching in the schools they want to.” The proposed bill does not have a cost included with it, but if the study recommendations are enacted, BIE would have to boost funding for tribal schools. Jaynie Parrish and her father drop off ballots at the one county ballot box in their town of Kayenta, Ariz., left, and members of Arizona Native Vote's Hopi team, the Firekeepers, register younger community members in Bacavi, Ariz. (Photos: Jason Biggs / courtesy Jaynie Parrish) The U.S. Supreme Court recently ruled that mail-in ballots that arrive after Election Day can still be counted. While the move is a win for Arizona’s Indigenous voters, it highlights the challenges Native people still face in rural parts of the state, as Mark Moran reports. Voting rights advocates say the debate highlights the challenges Native people face in trying to submit a ballot in person. The sheer geography, vast distances between physical polling places, and lack of transportation all present obstacles for Indigenous voters. In many places, the nearest polling place may be miles away, but Arizona Native Vote’s Jaynie Parrish says many people on reservations also lack physical addresses, which creates its own set of problems. “Even in some rural towns, they have physical addressing, but not on a lot of Tribal lands. We still predominantly use PO boxes. That means we have to go to a U.S. Post Office or another location to pick up mail, but our folks still vote by mail.” The Trump administration has pushed back on the high court’s ruling, asking justices to allow the president’s executive order to be implemented. The attempt to reject mail-in ballots received after Election Day is among a host of bold policy choices under the Trump administration. Parrish also points to efforts to challenge voter citizenship, which she says hit especially hard on Native reservations. “It’s just absurd. You get a look on people’s face when we have to explain this or when they hear about the news or what this means, and it’s another barrier. And it’s ridiculous to ask First Peoples, Indigenous Peoples of their citizenship.” According to research from the Brennan Center, Indigenous voters were about 7% less likely to cast their ballot by mail in the last General Election, reflecting a wider lack of participation among Natives.

Zoran Mamdani ran on affordability. Then Manhattan and Brooklyn posted the highest rents ever recorded. Critics are pointing at two policies: a rent freeze on a million units, and New York City's sanctuary status — which invited hundreds of thousands of new residents who all needed somewhere to live.The economics are not a mystery. Freeze rents on existing stock and developers stop building, landlords stop maintaining, and supply collapses while demand climbs. Pair that with a city that told the world to come on in, and you get exactly what New York got — record rents delivered by the man who promised to end them.Sean also pulls the thread to Seattle, where Katie Wilson is running the identical playbook: same party, same promises, same policies, same predictable result. Meanwhile Texas and Florida are building their way out of the crisis while blue cities regulate and freeze and act surprised when nobody can afford a studio apartment.CHAPTERS0:00 Mamdani ripped over record-high NYC…1:30 NYC Rents Soar Despite Mamdani's…2:38 Why Government Cannot Make Builders…4:05 Florida and Texas Carry U.S. Housing…5:03 NYC Rent Freeze on One Million Units6:12 Manhattan and Brooklyn Rents Hit…7:39 New York's Foreign-Born Renters and…9:01 Sanctuary Cities Worsen the Housing…10:13 Dallas Fed Links Immigration to Rising…12:12 Brandon Gill on Immigrants and Housing…13:24 Abbott's Migrant Buses Overwhelm Blue…14:41 Mark Levine's Housing Solutions Fall…16:52 Texas and Florida Oversupply Drives…18:46 Mamdani's Housing Promises vs Wilson's…20:18 Mamdani Celebrates Rent Freeze as…23:56 Rent Freezes Kill Incentives to BuildSubscribe to @reasonablenews and hit the notification bell for daily commentary on the stories the mainstream press buries.#NFRP #Mamdani #NYCGO PREMIUM WITH REASONABLE+ FOR UNCENSORED ACCESS

Twice in close to two decades of building an industry that barely existed, Dwayne Sperber has come near to walking away. Both times the phone rang. The second time was the morning he recorded this episode, when a project shifted against him and the call that came in was Jennifer asking him onto the show. What we're doing together is meaningful, he says, and that idea carries the whole conversation.   In this episode of the Woodpreneur Podcast, host Jennifer Alger sits down with Dwayne Sperber of Wudeward Urban Forest Products, a founding member of the Urban Wood Network and one of the earliest advocates for urban wood in the Midwest. Dwayne grew up on a farm in central Missouri and was working a corporate job at Ford Motor Company when a Chicago Tribune article about an arborist salvaging removed trees stopped him cold. Three days later he was standing in front of the man from the article.   He went from commissioned furniture maker to partnership with a sawmill that agreed to take the entire production of a tree removal, and he did it without ever writing a business plan. Then a general contractor chewed him out on an otherwise done deal, refusing to put his name on a project using a material he had never heard of. That rejection convinced Dwayne the wood needed standards behind it, which led to Wisconsin Urban Wood, a multi-state US Forest Service project, the Urban Wood Network, and the USRW certification work he does today.   You'll also hear the business model he calls suits to boots, why a first order can take three to five years, and how more than 40,000 board feet of his lumber ended up in the highest visibility areas of the Fiserv Forum. Dwayne closes with the one idea he most wants specifiers to understand: urban wood is not a product category to shop for, it is a material that can become almost any specified product, from ceiling systems to wall cladding to library tabletops. At the end of the day it is wood.

The traditional path to homeownership was once straightforward: rent an apartment, save for a down payment, buy a home and settle in. Today, that journey looks very different. Rising costs, shifting priorities and a growing demand for flexibility have created new opportunities for residents who want the space and lifestyle of a home without the immediate commitment of ownership.  Brett Forney, managing broker of Prim Realty and managing partner of Prim Properties, joins Host Carol Morgan on Atlanta Real Estate Forum Radio to discuss how Parkland Companies is creating solutions for those changing needs. From operating successful build-to-rent communities to launching an in-house brokerage, the company’s approach creates a seamless path for residents, whether they choose to rent, buy or transition between the two.  Build-to-Rent Demands a Different Mindset  Build-to-rent communities may resemble traditional neighborhoods, but operating them requires a very different approach than managing apartments or selling homes. With fewer homes, tighter operating margins and individual maintenance needs, every detail matters. Residents also bring different expectations. Many are living in a single-family home for the first time and need guidance on everything from smart home features to seasonal maintenance.  “You’re teaching residents how to live in a home instead of managing them in a unit,” Forney said.  Resident expectations have also reshaped the industry. While homeowners often make upgrades over time, renters expect a polished, move-in-ready experience from day one.  “Renters are far pickier than owners,” Forney said. “When you’re renting, it’s like leasing a luxury car. I want that luxury from day one.”  Meeting Residents Where They Are  Longer career transitions, rising homeownership costs and the desire for maintenance-free living have shifted priorities for many households. Rather than committing to a mortgage and unexpected repair bills, residents value the flexibility of professionally managed communities where maintenance is only a text away.  That shift is reflected across Prim Properties’ portfolio, where average household income exceeds $100,000 per home. These residents aren’t renting because they have no other option. They’re renting because it offers the flexibility and convenience they want today.  Communities like Sugarloaf Landing and the newly opening Sugarloaf Crest in Lawrenceville further support that lifestyle. The neighboring communities share amenities while offering walkability to schools, grocery stores and everyday conveniences, creating a neighborhood experience that’s increasingly difficult to find.  Creating a Seamless Path to Homeownership  As Prim Properties built relationships with residents across its communities, a common question emerged: What happens when renters are ready to buy? Many residents wanted to stay connected to the Parkland Communities experience but needed guidance on the next step. That opportunity led to the launch of Prim Realty, creating a direct path from renting to homeownership.  “Whether our residents want to rent from us forever or rent for a short time until they purchase, whichever direction their American dream goes, we’re going to be there to help their dreams become a reality,” Forney said.  Prim Realty is also introducing programs designed to make homeownership more attainable, including assistance with closing costs and down payments, along with financing partnerships that may offer qualified buyers options such as 100% financing, no private mortgage insurance and competitive interest rates.  The brokerage’s first communities include Parkside at Grove Landing in Warner Robins, along with upcoming communities in Snellville and Stonecrest, expanding Parkland Communities’ growing portfolio of attainable for-sale housing across Georgia.  Growing With Purpose  As Prim Properties and Prim Realty continue expanding, growth remains rooted in a simple philosophy: serve residents and communities with excellence. Over the next two years, Parkland Communities expects more than 3,000 homes to be occupied or under construction while continuing to grow its property management, brokerage and construction teams. Yet success isn’t measured solely by the number of homes delivered.  “I want people, when they think of Parkland and Prim, to know that we’re different,” Forney said. “We’re not just looking for the fast dollar, but we are the helpers.”  That commitment shapes everything from customer service to community partnerships, reinforcing a mission to provide quality housing while helping more families achieve their version of the American dream.  To learn more about Prim Properties, Prim Realty and Parkland Communities, listen to the full episode of Atlanta Real Estate Forum Radio or visit primprop.com and parklandco.com.  About Prim Properties & Prim Realty  Prim Properties specializes in the management of build-to-rent communities, delivering customized leasing, operations and resident services designed specifically for the BTR market. Rather than treating BTR as traditional multifamily housing, Prim Properties focuses on creating neighborhoods and long-term resident experiences.   Prim Realty, Parkland Communities’ fully licensed real estate brokerage, oversees the sales and marketing of the company’s growing portfolio of for-sale communities across metro Atlanta. Together, Prim Properties and Prim Realty provide an integrated platform supporting both professionally managed rental communities and new home sales.

Savage argues that civilizations rise and fall, using examples such as Marquesan war clubs and ancient Greek coins to frame his view that the West is declining because of immigration, liberalism, and the growth of socialism and communism. He fears that the reign of Zohran Mamdani in New York City could be a sign of a looming threat nationally. He discusses Jean Raspail's novel "The Camp of the Saints", interpreting it as a portrayal of Western "spiritual self-hatred" leading to societal collapse. Savage then warns about Democratic Socialists and revisits themes including border security and radical Islam from his 2005 book "Liberalism Is a Mental Disorder." He concludes by discussing his new venture The Healing Wheel Society (healingwheel.org) as a way to reduce religious conflict, encouraging people to practice the religion of their grandparents.   Go to GetSavageGold.com or call (855) GOLD-099.

The industry’s talking points are getting more absurd by the week: a farm blames “vegan extremists” for ending baby goat cuddling sessions, a horse-carriage op-ed acts like $65K/year is a job worth preserving at all costs, and the EU touts a “protein plan” that funnels plant protein straight back into animal feed.

Send us Fan MailIn this retrospective national study, Adrianne and Nim look at 25 years of congenital heart disease mortality in the US using CDC WONDER data. Infant mortality remains staggeringly high (54 per 100,000), and after years of steady decline, it has been climbing again since 2014. Disparities run throughout: higher deaths among males, non-Hispanic Black and American Indian/Alaska Native populations, and in rural, Midwestern regions, pointing more to gaps in access and resources than to disease biology. The conversation also flags a growing, under-discussed problem, an aging adult congenital population outpacing the pediatric one for the first time, with too few specialists trained to care for them.----National Trends and Disparities in Congenital Heart Disease Mortality in the United States, 1999-2024.Raja S, Albrahim MMS, Aldhafeeri BF, Omar AA, Alqadeeb BA, Alhuways MM, Bangaryd AA, Alqahtany MG, Alfaraj AB, Almughyir RS, AlRasheed ST, Alfaifi M. Pediatr Cardiol. 2026 Jan 13. doi: 10.1007/s00246-025-04156-1.

Introduction What happens when the personal lines book that carried an agency for years stops feeling safe? Rising home and auto rates, constant remarketing, and carriers pulling back have pushed a lot of independent agencies to look at commercial lines as the way to build a more resilient book. The appetite for the business has always been there. The submission process is what gets in the way. On this episode of the Insurtech Leadership Podcast, host Joshua Hollander sits down with Michael Rabinowitz, who leads commercial lines product for EZLynx at Applied Systems. Rabinowitz started on the agency side when commercial rating meant loading a floppy disk of carrier rates every month, and he has spent nearly three decades trying to make the work simpler. They get specific about why commercial has stayed hard, what changes when real-time carrier quoting moves inside the submission, and where AI actually helps an agent who is new to commercial. Guest Bio Michael Rabinowitz leads product management for the commercial lines business at EZLynx, part of Applied Systems, the largest provider of cloud software for insurance agencies in North America. His career in insurance spans nearly 30 years. He started on the agency side handling commercial submissions, then moved to the technology side around 2000 to work on some of the industry's early multi-carrier commercial rating. At EZLynx, he led the rearchitecture behind Instant Commercial Quoting, which brings real-time carrier rates into the EZLynx submission workflow. His focus has stayed consistent across all of it: build the tools he would have used as an agent, and make commercial simple enough that more agencies take it on. Key Topics -The resilient book - Why the personal lines hard market, with higher rates and heavier remarketing, is pushing agencies to diversify into commercial to stabilize the business. -The four-times problem - How one small commercial submission can mean entering the same data into three or four carrier portals, often eating the entire commission on the account. -Commercial by accommodation - Almost every personal lines agency already writes a few commercial policies for long-time customers, which makes commercial an extension of existing relationships rather than a cold start. -Real-time appetite - Why carrier appetite now shifts day to day, and how live rating inside the submission changes which carriers get seen first. -AI as an accelerant - How AI helps with class-code and NAICS lookups and catches misclassification, like the ice cream shop that is really a manufacturer, so newer commercial agents build confidence. -Get out of the way - Rabinowitz's product philosophy that technology should cut context switching and re-keying, not add one more interface to learn. -Carriers and friction - Why carriers that make real-time connectivity easy will earn the first look, and the ones that do not may get left off the submission. Notable Quotes "For me to be doing my job correctly required me to enter in the data four times. That is a tremendous amount of time wasted for maybe a two thousand dollar premium. I've probably eaten up my commission, if not more, just on that activity alone." "I can't afford to have technology get in my way. Technology either helps me be more productive, or it causes me to lose opportunities." "They're not an ice cream store, they're actually an ice cream manufacturer. If you misclassify a business and bind the policy and there's a claim, that's a headache down the road waiting to happen." "If they have to go to five markets and only three are on real-time rating, they may go to those three first. As a carrier, you might get left off of a submission."

How can home prices keep rising when inventory is also going up? In this episode of Tom's Take, Tom Toole breaks down the market dynamic happening in the Greater Philadelphia area. National headlines may say many markets are shifting toward buyers, but locally, the numbers tell a different story. Inventory is rising across the Philadelphia metro, Chester County, Delaware County, Montgomery County, and Philadelphia, but most areas are still far below the months of supply typically needed for a balanced or buyer's market. That is why prices can still rise even as more homes hit the market. Tom explains what active listings, months of supply, buyer demand, and median sale price trends mean for buyers and sellers right now — and why local data matters more than national headlines.

Discover what the Fed's next rate decision may be. Will the Federal Reserve hold interest rates steady—or surprise markets with another rate hike? For the first time in years, even seasoned economists and former Federal Reserve officials are deeply divided. Rising oil prices fueled by renewed Middle East tensions are reigniting inflation concerns just as recent inflation data suggested the battle against higher prices may finally be turning a corner. In this episode, Linda P. Jones breaks down the competing forces shaping the Fed's decision, why Chairman Kevin Warsh has intentionally made monetary policy less predictable, and what investors should be watching beyond the headline announcement. Most importantly, Linda explains why she believes the long-term story isn't about one quarter-point rate move—it's about the powerful productivity gains from artificial intelligence that could reshape the economy and create one of the greatest wealth-building opportunities of our lifetime. What You'll Walk Away With Why this is one of the most uncertain Fed meetings in years. How rising oil prices could influence interest rate policy. Why the bond market is signaling concern about inflation. What Kevin Warsh's leadership style means for investors. The split among Fed officials on whether to raise rates. Why AI-driven productivity may ultimately reduce inflation. How geopolitical events complicate monetary policy. What investors should listen for during the Fed press conference. Why long-term investors shouldn't overreact to one Fed meeting. How to stay focused on wealth-building during uncertain markets. Are you on track for financial freedom...or not?
