Don and Tom unload on sensationalized financial journalism, taking aim at recent articles claiming the 4% withdrawal rule and classic 60/40 portfolios are “failing” retirees. They argue that the media increasingly prioritizes fear-driven headlines over practical investing wisdom, pushing emotionally charged narratives that ignore investor behavior and long-term historical returns. The duo also push back against claims that target-date funds could wipe out retirees, explaining why diversified portfolios remain far less risky than headlines suggest. Listener questions cover Robinhood's controversial 2% transfer bonus, SEC transaction fees on ETF sales, Roth IRA liquidity concerns, rebalancing discipline, and the dangers of emotionally reacting to politics and markets. Along the way, Don discusses the release of his Civil War novel The Line Uncrossed, while Tom manages to squeeze in Morse code, Rasputin, and model bomber references for absolutely no good reason whatsoever.0:05 Don and Tom rant about the collapse of quality financial journalism1:43 Criticism of Money.com article attacking the 4% rule and 60/40 portfolios2:44 Morningstar's 3.7% withdrawal study versus the traditional 4% rule4:21 Why “100% stocks beats 60/40” ignores investor psychology and risk tolerance5:03 Emotional pain, market crashes, and why most investors cannot handle full equity exposure6:02 Financial media sensationalism and clickbait retirement headlines7:32 Seattle Times article warning target-date funds could destroy retiree savings8:35 Critique of claims that target-date funds are dangerously risky at retirement9:41 Discussion of Vanguard 2025 target-date allocation and global diversification12:00 Why diversified global portfolios are far less risky than fearmongers suggest13:16 Media outrage, sensationalism, and why Talking Real Money avoids scare tactics14:48 Listener comment about Don's books appearing on Amazon15:15 Reality check on book royalties and publishing economics15:49 Discussion of Don's Civil War novel The Line Uncrossed17:19 Book pricing, Kindle strategy, and avoiding Amazon exclusivity18:41 Transition to listener questions19:10 Caller asks about Robinhood's 2% IRA transfer bonus and possible tax issues20:10 Why IRA transfers and Robinhood bonuses are generally not taxable21:05 Concerns about Robinhood's gamified investing culture versus Vanguard's philosophy22:03 Risks of getting lured into speculative products after transferring assets22:59 Caller explains working with a fee-only fiduciary advisor and self-managing investments24:48 SEC transaction fees on ETF sales explained25:47 Why the SEC fee is effectively meaningless for ordinary investors26:15 Listener question about moving Roth IRA money to CDs due to market fears29:10 Why emotionally reacting to politics and market fears can hurt long-term investing31:17 Importance of maintaining an appropriate long-term asset allocation31:41 Tom jokes nervously about a meeting with HRQuestions?

Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski | True Crime News & Commentary
Both sides of the Murdaugh case gained leverage over the past three years — but the advantages cut in opposite directions. The defense has a Supreme Court opinion calling the first trial fundamentally unfair and a former clerk with a perjury conviction. The prosecution has a locked-in transcript of everything Murdaugh said under oath and three years of investigative refinement.Eric Faddis analyzes the strategic landscape. Murdaugh's first-trial testimony creates a trap: testify again and face impeachment with his own prior words, or stay silent and let the jury wonder why. The defense may try to put Hill's misconduct before the retrial jury as a narrative weapon, but the judge could rule the tampering issue is resolved and keep her out. Meanwhile, the prosecution may have new forensic work or expert testimony that wasn't available the first time.Faddis also confronts the venue problem head-on — after three years of saturation coverage, a Supreme Court reversal, and a clerk's criminal conviction, the question of where you find twelve impartial people in this state may be the most consequential pretrial fight of all.LINKSJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

In this episode of the Animals at Home Podcast, I'm joined by reptile keeper and podcast host Adam Sehy for a wide-ranging conversation about reptile keeping, outdoor husbandry, podcasting, breeding decisions, and balancing reptiles with real life.We discuss Adam's journey into reptiles and podcasting, how his show evolved from a curiosity-driven learning project into a successful reptile media platform, and why he recently decided to scale back recording frequency to focus more on family and avoiding burnout.We also take a deep dive into Adam's current collection, including Argentine boas, jungle carpet pythons, diamond pythons, blood pythons, Timor pythons, and Texas indigos. Adam shares his philosophy on keeping a smaller, more intentional collection, his preference for natural-looking animals over morphs, and how he evaluates whether or not an animal should be bred.One of the most fascinating parts of the episode centers around Adam's outdoor reptile enclosures in Florida.We discuss:Keeping diamond pythons outdoors through winter cold snapsNatural temperature cycling and fasting periodsEnclosure construction and insulationPredator and parasite preventionMonitoring temperatures with sensorsThe risks and rewards of outdoor reptile keepingWe also touch on:The evolution of reptile husbandry over the yearsLessons learned from old reptile forumsPodcasting in the reptile spaceSocial media and reptile content creationHealth, fitness, and balancing hobbies with life responsibilitiesSHOW NOTES: https://www.animalsathomenetwork.com/251-adam-sehy/SPONSORS: Visit The BioDude: https://www.thebiodude.com/ Visit Zoo Med Labs here: https://zoomed.com/JOIN US ON PATREON: https://www.patreon.com/animalsathomeLINKS FROM THE EPISODE:https://www.youtube.com/@Snake_Boihttps://www.instagram.com/official_snake_boi/https://www.facebook.com/adam.sehy/00:00 Intro02:27 Adam's podcast journey & reducing episode frequency9:55 How reptile podcasting changed his husbandry philosophy34:52 Growing up with reptiles & early keeping experiences52:40 Adam's Collection 1:01:08 Why Adam Won't Breed His Jungle Carpet Python1:08:20 Why Argentine Boas are Amazing1:21:45 Diamond pythons outdoors in Florida & Sub Zero Cold Snap1:43:42 Texas indigo snakes & feeding challenges1:49:20 Social media, reptile content & podcasting culture1:55:25 Where to find Adam & closing thoughts
Knowledge Project: Read the notes at at podcastnotes.org. Don't forget to subscribe for free to our newsletter, the top 10 ideas of the week, every Monday --------- Joe Liemandt quietly built one of the most successful software empires you've never heard of—then reappeared with a $1 billion bet that AI can make kids learn ten times faster and love school more than vacation. At Alpha School, students spend just two hours a day on AI‑driven academics, consistently score in the top 1% on standardized tests, and use the rest of their time to build real‑world life skills: leadership, entrepreneurship, teamwork, and projects they actually care about. There are no lectures, no moving on without mastery, and a very different role for “teachers”—now called guides. Liemandt is the principal of Alpha School and the founder of Trilogy Software and ESW Capital. He dropped out of Stanford to build Trilogy, made the cover of Forbes twice before turning thirty, became the youngest member of the Forbes 400, then vanished from public life for twenty‑five years while quietly becoming one of the most prolific acquirers of software businesses in the world. Now he's using everything he learned about systems, incentives, and scale to rebuild K–12 from first principles around mastery, motivation, and AI. In this conversation, we cover Joe's full arc, from sleeping on the floor at Trilogy and being mentored by Jack Welch to deciding that “kids must love school more than vacation” would be a non‑negotiable design principle for Alpha. He explains how the Timeback platform works under the hood, why he's comfortable streaming student screens to AI in real time, and how he plans to scale this model to a billion kids. You'll learn: why he thinks the traditional classroom was designed for a narrow slice of students and wastes everyone else's time, what changes when kids master a year of material in roughly 20–22 hours, how guides coach motivation instead of delivering lectures, and the simple rules he uses to make high‑stakes decisions about people, product, and strategy. ------ Timestamps: (00:00) What's Broken in Today's Education System (07:01) What Makes Alpha School Different (11:01) Real Results: 2 Hours of AI, Top 1% Scores (16:55) Who Gets In (23:20) The Everyday Classroom Problems Alpha Is Fixing (26:40) Redefining Mastery: No Moving On Until You “Get It” (35:37) Can You Actually Change a System This Big?

STRONGER BONES LIFESTYLE: REVERSING THE COURSE OF OSTEOPOROSIS NATURALLY
In Part 2 of Debi's conversation with Dr. Doug Lucas, the discussion goes beyond osteoporosis and into the bigger picture of longevity, hormones, and whole-body health.Dr. Doug explains why bone loss should never be viewed as “normal aging,” but rather as feedback from the body that something deeper may need attention. Together, they explore how inflammation, hormones, stress, muscle loss, and lifestyle habits all influence bone density—and why women need more individualized, proactive support as they age.They also tackle some of the most common questions women ask about bone health tools and therapies, including weighted vests, vibration plates, hormone replacement therapy, and the limitations of relying solely on medications or DEXA scores.This episode is packed with practical insight, nuanced conversations, and empowering reminders that women are not powerless when it comes to their bone health.What You'll LearnWhy bone health is a biomarker for longevity and overall healthHow inflammation and metabolism influence bone lossWhy osteoporosis should not be accepted as “normal aging”The limitations of DEXA scans in predicting fracture riskWhat Dr. Doug really thinks about weighted vestsThe truth about vibration plates and which ones may actually helpWhy lifestyle still matters—even if you take bone medicationsThe role of hormones in bone, muscle, mood, and vitalityWhy women over 60 are often underserved in menopause careThe importance of individualized hormone therapy and testingHow stress, fear, and mindset impact healthy agingAction StepsFocus on foundational lifestyle habits before expensive devicesPrioritize protein intake and strength training consistentlySupport hormone health with a personalized approachAddress stress, sleep, and inflammation as part of bone healthUse DEXA scans as one data point—not the entire pictureStay curious and continue educating yourself about your optionsAdvocate for individualized care instead of one-size-fits-all solutionsResources & LinksDr. Doug Lucas – Osteo Collectivehttps://www.osteocollective.com/LifeMD Women's Health Programs (Hormone Support)https://lifemd.com/womens-health/Debi's Healthy Gut Healthy Bones Programhttps://debirobinson.com/healthy-gut-healthy-bones-program-v2/Debi's TakeawayYour bones are not separate from your health.They reflect your hormones, your habits, your strength, your stress, and your resilience.When you stop seeing osteoporosis as simply a diagnosis—and start seeing it as feedback—you begin asking better questions.And better questions lead to better outcomes.
AI is quickly moving beyond experimentation and becoming part of how buyers evaluate operational maturity, scalability, and future growth potential. But not every use of AI increases business value. In many cases, owners are implementing tools without a clear strategy, measurable impact, or understanding of what sophisticated buyers are actually looking for. In this episode, Janet Waring, CEO of ArtForm Agency, joins Pat Ennis and Corby Megorden to discuss how AI is beginning to influence valuation conversations—from operational efficiency and market intelligence to scalability and decision-making. The conversation focuses on practical application rather than hype, helping owners think more strategically about where AI fits within long-term value creation and exit planning. This discussion is particularly relevant for owners trying to determine whether AI is simply a productivity tool—or an emerging factor in how businesses are evaluated, differentiated, and ultimately valued. **In this episode, we cover:** * What separates meaningful AI implementation from experimentation * How buyers and private equity groups may evaluate AI capabilities * Where AI can improve operational scalability and efficiency * Risks associated with fragmented or poorly integrated AI adoption * Practical starting points for owners planning an exit within the next few years * Why thoughtful AI strategy may increasingly influence transferable value Guest: Janet Waring, Co-Founder & CEO, ArtForm Agency ArtForm Agency combines strategy, creativity, and data science to help organizations scale through AI enablement, market intelligence, and performance-driven marketing strategies.

Could nicotine have a place in supporting focus, mood, motivation, and brain health? In this episode, Dr. Don Ellsworth explores the growing conversation around nicotine, not in the form of smoking, vaping, or tobacco products, but as a tool that may offer cognitive and neurological support when used carefully. He explains how nicotine interacts with acetylcholine receptors in the brain and why some people report improved concentration, better recall, increased energy, calmer mood, and even reduced appetite. Dr. Ellsworth also reviews what current research suggests about nicotine's potential role in a number of neurological and inflammatory concerns. He discusses why nicotine may be best viewed as a support tool rather than a root-cause solution, and emphasizes the importance of addressing underlying issues properly. This episode offers a thoughtful look at where nicotine may fit into a broader brain health strategy, while also explaining when it should be avoided and why careful use matters.

As eighteen Americans are evacuated from a hantavirus-affected cruise ship and placed under observation at specialized facilities in the U.S., experts are evaluating the transmission risks associated with this specific outbreak. Three passengers have died following the outbreak, which originated on the MV Hondius after it departed Argentina. Former CDC Director Dr. Robert Redfield joins the Rundown to explain the science behind the Andes variant, a specific strain known for rare human-to-human transmission, and the history of the virus. As Democrats ramp up their push to redraw congressional maps ahead of the 2026 midterms, a pair of major court rulings are reshaping the fight over redistricting and political power. Virginia Democrats are asking the U.S. Supreme Court to step in after the state's highest court struck down a new congressional map, while another Supreme Court decision out of Louisiana is fueling a broader debate over race, representation, and voting rights.

Much of the world's attention today is understandably focused on conflict in the Middle East, and the immediate implications for energy markets and global security. But other regions remain strategically important because of critical minerals, emerging shipping routes, military positioning, and energy security. Among these regions are Greenland and the broader Arctic. The far north is key to geopolitical competition among the United States, China, and Russia. Though it has fallen out of the recent news cycle, President Trump put Greenland and its resources in the spotlight last year by calling for US control of the Danish territory. So how significant are Greenland's energy resources and geography? How should we think about its mineral resources in the context of supply chains and China? And how might the Arctic's fast-changing climate affect the region's communities, culture, and geopolitical importance? Today on the show, Bill Loveless speaks with Iris Ferguson about Greenland's strategic significance, and how the Arctic is changing, both physically as well as geopolitically. Iris is the president and founder of IAF Strategies and a non-resident senior associate with the Center for Strategic and International Studies. From 2022 to 2025 she served as the inaugural deputy assistant secretary of defense for Arctic and global resilience, advising the Pentagon on protecting US and allied interests in the Arctic. Previously, Iris served as an advisor to the US Air Force, where she authored the service's first Arctic strategy. Credits: Hosted by Jason Bordoff and Bill Loveless.

AI systems are increasingly embedded as non-human participants within managed environments, driving a structural shift in operational responsibility and exposure for MSPs. This shift is characterized by the integration of AI-powered tools—such as note takers, copilots, connectors, and agents—into core business workflows and SaaS platforms. Companies like Google, Microsoft, and ServiceNow are formalizing AI governance with platform features such as agent registries, policy enforcement gateways, and cross-platform audit trails. Reports from industry sources, including Wired, Rubrik, and regulatory bodies in the EU, substantiate these developments and highlight changing expectations for accountability and control. A key finding, according to security research by Red Access and covered by Wired, is that over 5,000 publicly exposed AI-generated web apps were found on the open web, with about 40% leaking sensitive data ranging from medical records to corporate strategy documents. Rubrik's Zero Lab survey of over 1,600 IT and security leaders further reports that 86% expect AI agents will surpass existing security controls within a year, while only 23% feel they have full visibility into these agents' activities. The New York Times and legal organizations note increasing legal and evidentiary risks posed by AI transcription tools in business meetings, warning that ungoverned AI outputs may be subject to discovery in litigation and could compromise attorney-client privilege. Additional developments reinforce the governance and risk gap. Platform vendors are building more granular control and auditing features, but most client environments still include unregulated AI tools, third-party connectors, and manual overrides outside these native boundaries. Regulatory frameworks are evolving to place explicit bans on specific AI outputs and to delay implementation of high-risk AI oversight, as seen in the EU's provisional AI Act. The integration between Black Kite and Sayari exemplifies how vendors are seeking to connect risk intelligence across supply chains, but operator-level exposure often remains distributed and ambiguous. For MSPs and IT leaders, the practical implication is an immediate requirement to inventory and classify AI participants and outputs within managed domains, clarify contractual scope, and establish evidence-ready policies for audits, incidents, and legal review. Relying solely on vendor platform controls is insufficient, as clients and auditors will expect clear documentation of AI activity, data access, and policy enforcement. Many agreements are not priced or structured for AI governance and may require explicit scope adjustments, upcharges for AI inventory and policy services, and contractual exclusions for unmanaged AI activity to avoid unpriced liability. 00:00 Agents Unchecked 04:49 Control the Bot 06:58 AI Audit Risk 10:38 Why Do We Care?

The 1919 competition attracted diverse aviators, including the Australian Harry Hawker, a fearless and sometimes "spiky" test pilot. Inspired by watching Harry Houdini fly in 1910, Hawker became a natural pilot who understood risks instinctively, even while hiding a secret and painful spinal injury from past crashes. He was joined by rivals like Fred Raynham, a quiet pilot with steely resolve who had survived a mid-flight tail snap during the war. The end of the war had destroyed the market for military aircraft overnight, forcing companies like Sopwith to build motorcycles and kitchenware to survive. Consequently, Northcliffe's prize offered a vital way to promote civil aviation. In contrast to these striving young pilots, Admiral Mark Kerr led a team for Handley Page. Born in a palace to an illustrious naval family, Kerr maintained a sharp class distinction, refusing to collaborate with his younger rivals. (2/4)1968 APOLLO 8

On May 2, the World Health Organization got an alarming report: People aboard a ship in the Atlantic Ocean were falling ill. The culprit is now confirmed as hantavirus, a pathogen that some rodents carry that can infect humans in rare, but often deadly, instances. Multiple passengers have died, and more people are showing symptoms. So, we're talking to Emily Abdoler, an infectious disease doctor at the University of Michigan, about the news – how common is hantavirus in humans, what are the consequences of getting it, and how can at-risk people protect themselves from it?

Abortion is back at center stage in our politics after a federal appeals court halted access to a mail-order abortion medication. We'll talk about next steps in the Supreme Court and the decision facing both parties on whether to lean into this issue at this moment. Democrats know it can galvanize their base, but do they want to take attention away from affordability? On the right, could this expose President Trump's failure to deliver the strong message on abortion that many supporters wanted? As we go deeper into this midterm election year, we're also learning that President Trump can still dictate how some elections play out. He sank some incumbent Republicans in Indiana who refused to stand with him on redistricting. And in Texas, if the President doesn't decide soon who to endorse in the U.S. Senate, the two GOP candidates risk draining their resources. And there's a chaotic mess for Democrats in the race for California's governor. It's a mess that could lead to a Republican replacing Gavin Newsom.

There's a lot happening right now, and some of it deserves real attention. From the estrogen patch shortage, which could last years, to new research on GLP-1 weight loss drugs and what they may be doing to muscle in women over 50, this episode goes deeper than the headlines. It also breaks down what's unfolding in the Diddy case, the Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni drama, and why situations like these often feel frustrating and unresolved. Then the focus shifts to more personal updates, including Penelope's health, filming 19 workouts in 3 days, and a few eye-opening moments that challenge how we think about aging, strength, and what's actually possible in midlife. For anyone navigating menopause, considering HRT, using GLP-1s, or simply trying to stay informed without feeling overwhelmed, this episode is worth the listen. Be honest…what do you think really happened with Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni? Was this orchestrated, who do you actually believe, and whose career do you think comes out stronger after all of this… or are you over it completely?
