Subscribe to the channel today! [2:10] On with the Show! Our guest today is one of the liveliest RIMS members I know! She is Emily Buckley, the Insurance Manager for Specialized Bicycle Components, a global performance brand. [2:23] Emily is the Vice President of the RIMS Rocky Mountain Chapter. At RISKWORLD 2026, Emily was named to the RIMS Honor Roll in 2026. Emily made her RIMScast debut in 2024 for National Bike Safety Month in Man, and we're recording in May again. [2:47] We'll have a lot of fun talking about bicycle safety and how Emily embeds safety into all aspects of risk management and the risk culture over at Specialized Bicycle Components. [2:59] Emily has had a remarkable career at Specialized. She is the company's first-ever dedicated risk manager. She has built a modern enterprise-ready risk and insurance function from the ground up, which we are going to talk about today. [3:12] We'll talk about her risk philosophies, her approach to polycrisis and supply chain risk management, and why her involvement in the RIMS Rocky Mountain Chapter has been so critical for her career. Let's get to it! [3:27] Interview! Emily Buckley, Welcome Back to RIMScast! [3:50] Emily says receiving the RIMS Honor Roll award seemed surreal. It was very cool to be onstage, be recognized, and have the village she had built around herself there supporting her. Everyone was so excited for her. It was one of the coolest things she had ever experienced. [4:27] Justin calls Emily the Risk Queen of Denver and the Greater Denver Area and says she has a lot of support behind her. She's "got heat!" [4:48] Justin is recording this episode during National Bicycle Safety Month. This is Emily's month. At Specialized Bicycle Components, every day is National Bicycle Safety Month! [5:19] Justin talks about safety being embedded into the manufacturing and shipping of bicycles. [5:34] Emily says every day, even when she is sleeping, safety is on her mind. [5:46] Specialized Bicycle Components has a Safety Team. Emily's broker has a Safety Specialist assigned to her account. Emily has connected those two teams. She is a liaison between them, and she works very closely with her Safety Team at Specialized Bicycle Components. [6:02] Emily has monthly meetings with groups at Specialized Bicycle Components to discuss safety initiatives. She says the Safety Team at Specialized does a phenomenal job. [6:26] Emily says Risk Management is a department of many hats. She tells people that if there is pushback on an initiative, I'll be the bad guy. Tell them, Sorry, Risk Management is making us do this. Sometimes that's a little bit easier to sell. [7:11] Emily has been practicing risk management for almost 15 years. She started at Kroenke Sports and Entertainment in Customer Interaction, including tossing T-shirts into the crowd for the Denver Nuggets. People wanted those shirts. [9:05] When Kroenke posted a job for a risk analyst, Emily applied, and Peggy Miller hired her. Emily talked about this in her past appearance on RIMScast. Peggy is the President of Rocky Mountain RIMS. Peggy taught Emily almost everything Emily knows about risk management. [9:34] Peggy took Emily under her wing. She taught Emily how to review contracts for risk management wording and insurance requirements. Emily could go to Peggy with any question, and Peggy would explain it. Emily says that Peggy is a phenomenal boss. [10:07] Emily found an opportunity at Specialized when it was time to spread her wings. She still calls Peggy from time to time for advice. Peggy is always willing to help. [10:34] Emily joined Specialized Bicycle Components and became the risk management department. She came in two or three months before they did their insurance renewal, so it was initiation by firehose. [10:53] It was a great opportunity to learn about the program. She was also educating them about what risk management does and how they should be running their program, and educating them about insurance requirements. [11:16] Emily says Specialized has an amazing executive team and ownership. They were so receptive to all the ideas Emily brought them. They also had a lot of creative ideas. As a risk manager, it was fun to come into that environment. [11:49] The risk department has not grown since Emily joined Specialized. [12:21] Emily started an ERM Program at Specialized. It takes a team, and it takes the right partners. Emily thinks every company will benefit from an ERM Program. Stepping into a manufacturing company very dependent on the supply chain, Emily saw that ERM was a must. [12:49] Emily worked with the right partners, did a couple of different tabletops, and hyper-focused on three or four ERM initiatives, for which she built the ERM foundation and the risk management foundation on top. Every project she works on goes back to those initiatives. [13:24] Emily says she is very fortunate to have the ear of the executive leadership. [13:32] One of the mantras at Specialized Bicycle Components is Innovate or Die. Emily has taken that to heart in Risk Management and ERM. Emily is constantly trying to find ways to make the ERM stronger and better, going back to those three or four initiatives. [13:51] Emily thinks outside the box. She has seen some products that don't completely fit Specialized, but by working with the service providers and saying she likes this product, but she needs it to do this, she has found some amazing service providers and partners to work with. [14:24] As a risk manager, Emily lives in worst-case scenarios. Professionally and personally, she can never get away from worst-case scenarios. A good risk manager is always preparing for the worst-case scenario, always thinking, what is the absolute worst thing that could happen. [14:46] Emily says one of the hardest things is realizing that a lot of people don't live in that headspace. When she goes to teams and tells them the worst thing that can happen, they ask if she is OK. She insists that this worst-case scenario is something they need to think about. [15:12] That's where education comes in. We need to think about it. If this worst-case scenario happens, all of these ripple effects hit every portion of the company. [15:43] Emily says Specialized has been around so long, and with the leadership and experts they have in place, Emily is amazed every day at the team that Specialized has assembled. She says they are the best in their class. There are Olympic and professional athletes on the team. [16:43] A service provider noticed that Specialized Bicycle Components recruits the best people in the world. They want that experience so they can build a better product with better processes. [17:07] A Quick Break! There are so many other wonderful RIMS events coming up in 2026.

[19:13] Justin speaks about the profile of Emily Buckley in the RIMS Risk Management Magazine Awards Edition. It mentions that Emily consolidated fragmented global insurance structures into a unified strategy across more than 30 countries. [19:38] Emily says, trying to get the insurance together at a global company was hard. A lot of people were autonomous, getting their own insurance and doing their own thing. In almost 15 years as a risk manager, Emily learned that insurance is very touchy for a lot of people. [20:23] Insurance costs a lot of money for something that you can't see. You're not using it unless something bad has happened. So it's a very sensitive subject for a lot of people. Emily says it's a job that won't ever really be done because there are so many different moving parts. [21:03] Emily says that in all the different countries we're in, every country has different insurance laws, different ways to buy and pay for insurance, and what kind of insurance you have to have. [21:13] Emily says in some countries, I have to have a locally placed general liability policy, but the property policy that I place on a global level will sit over that. In a different country, I have to have a locally placed general liability/property and a locally placed stock throughput. [21:31] For almost 40 different countries, you have to know which countries you have to have insurance in. That's when your broker becomes invaluable. [21:48] It's helpful to have a foreign team on your broker who are subject matter experts in placing locally placed policies. Emily says she would not be able to do that without the team at her broker, Brown & Brown. [22:03] Emily talks about educating the people at your company: This is what we currently have, and this is what we need. We need it in almost 40 countries. These 20 are our top priority. You tier them down so you're not throwing everything at the wall. [22:27] You're formulating a plan, then educating and speaking with the people in your company. A lot of questions come up, not only about general liability, but also cyber, and directors & officers. [22:37] It's a sensitive subject that you have to take your time with. Build a relationship with those offices so that when something does happen, or they have a question, they come to you. [23:04] You will always be making connections with your offices, making sure they're happy with their insurance, they understand it, and they have a local contact. If something happens in Taiwan, they need a local contact who can answer questions and relay that to the global team. [24:12] Emily says that every year, there are two or three problem countries, from an insurance perspective, where the carrier or broker has thrown a curveball. Sometimes she has had to pull people out of the program and put them on their own. It's a constantly moving target. [25:13] Emily says at Kroenke, she and Peggy did a business continuity tabletop, where they sat down with all the different department heads at Ball Arena (Pepsi Center, then) and walked through scenarios. They presented a worst-case scenario tabletop with 30 people in the room. [25:52] Emily and Peggy also did a couple of cyber tabletop exercises. Emily stresses how important it is to do a cyber tabletop with your executive and leadership team. They're always amazed at how many different small issues and questions come up that they never thought of. [26:35] Emily says her leadership team at Specialized is fantastic. They've been very supportive. She can throw ideas at them, and they'll say, "Let's do it." [26:49] Justin says people receive these awards from RIMS not just for their achievements in risk management, but also for what they give back to the broader risk management community or their local chapters. [27:09] Justin says Emily is very involved in the RIMS Rocky Mountain Chapter and is a great Networker and is very plugged in. Justin says that if it weren't for Emily, he doesn't think he would have gotten Rich Lenkov from SERMA on the show this year. (Shout out to Rich!) [27:40] Emily says she started going to the Rocky Mountain RIMS Chapter when she was an analyst, working under Peggy Miller. She remembers walking into a Lunch and Learn. Going to Chapter meetings was very inspiring. She wanted to be that knowledgeable one day. [29:10] Emily says this industry is built on your connections to people and how you know people. She says we have the best people in our chapter. We're very involved with students and RRP. [29:24] Emily tells students in RRP, "Come to our meetings. If you don't know anybody, you know me. I will introduce you to everybody. This is where your career is going to take off. This is where you're going to be able to make steps and strides and really make connections." [30:11] Emily says she cannot say enough great things about Rocky Mountain RIMS. She thinks they have one of the best chapters in the U.S., because they have the best people. [30:24] Justin recalls that Ondrea Matthews with CoorsTek was on the show last year. She is in Rocky Mountain RIMS. Emily says Ondrea is one of the best people she knows. Justin says she had fascinating stories. A link to her RIMScast episode is in the show notes. [31:02] Emily says when she joined Specialized, she told them she's a Rocky Mountain RIMS board member, she speaks at conferences, and is a guest lecturer at CU Denver. They were super supportive. [31:47] Emily says Specialized wants to put the best product on the market, and Emily takes that into risk management and insurance. She wants to create the best risk program that she can. She wants to work with the best service providers that she can. [32:12] Another Quick Break! The Spencer Educational Foundation's Risk Manager on Campus application period is now open, and it will close on June 30th. Grant awardees, colleges, and universities are typically notified in September. [32:32] The Course Development Grant application deadline for Interval Number 2 will be on June 15th, 2026. Award notifications will be sent out in late July. [32:57] General Grant applications are open, and the application deadline is July 30th. Internship Grant applications open on August 15th and close on October 15th. [32:59] Links to each of these grants are in this episode's show notes. Visit SpencerEd.org for more information. [33:07] The Spencer 2026 Funding Their Future Gala will be held on Thursday, September 17th, from 6:30 to 10:00 p.m. at a different venue this year. It will be at the fabulous Waldorf Astoria in New York City. [33:23] Sponsorship opportunities and benefits are available now. A link to the Funding Their Future Gala is in this episode's show notes. [33:32] Be on the lookout for some of the honorees and Spencer Board members to join RIMScast in June and July. [33:41] Let's Conclude Our Interview with RIMS 2026 Honor Roll Recipient Emily Buckley! [33:48] Justin mentions the RIMS Strategic and Enterprise Risk Management Council. The RIMS ERM Engage Group is a member-only offshoot of SERMC for people to have candid dialogues. All RIMS members have exclusive access to the ERM Engage Group. Emily is a member. [34:38] Emily says the ERM Engage Group gets together monthly for an hour. Morgan O'Rourke, VP of Editorial at RIMS, leads it. Everyone brings issues, or Morgan will have a guest speaker. Emily says it's just such a great place to go and learn from industry peers with similar issues. [35:55] Emily is not trying to reinvent the wheel. If she can bring the problems she is dealing with to a group of professionals, ask how they have done it in the past, and get 10 or 20 ideas, it's amazing. [36:13] Emily recommends the movie, Project Hail Mary, which she calls amazing. [36:27] Justin talks about the monthly guest speaker, often from SERMC, who presents a topic and then engages the group in discussion. The Engage group lets the leaders see who the next ERM leaders are going to be through their participation. It's very interactive. [37:32] If you are a RIMS member, just check out the RIMS ERM Engage Group. Justin says Emily's involvement is above and beyond, not just for her job, but for RIMS, so he was not surprised she received the 2026 RIMS Honor Roll; it's well deserved. [38:18] Emily loves her job. She loves this industry. [38:40] Emily admits her blood caffeine content was through the roof, preparing for the awards ceremony. Emily looked it up. She is the 43rd recipient of the Risk Management Honor Roll in 75 years of RIMS. She has the award in her window in her office. It is cool to be celebrated. [40:26] Emily says her award makes it into everything. After she got it, she carried it around with her. At lunch, it was sitting on the table. At dinner, it was sitting on the table. She carried it onto the plane with her. [41:22] In the profile about Emily, it talked about perseverance in mountain biking. Juston asks Emily for her inspiration for the next generation of risk professionals. [42:04] Emily's words: "Keep going. You're going to fail, and that's fine. It's part of the journey. Fail. Learn the lesson or lessons, but keep going. Always keep looking at the horizon, saying, OK, I'm going to get there. I'm going to get there, I'm going to get there. [42:21] "The absolute most important thing is, have fun on the way." Emily says she did a little dance on the awards stage, and some students told her they loved seeing her having fun with it. It made Emily's day for them to stop and tell her. "If you're not having fun, what's the point?" [43:21] Justin tells Emily, We look forward to more great things from you in the coming years. We thank you, and we congratulate you again. [45:33] Special thanks again to Emily Buckley of Specialized Bicycle Components for joining us here on RIMScast!

UGREEN continues to release new and updated accessories to help you stay charged on the move and keep track of all your items' locations. UGREEN Nexode Air 65W Charger The Nexode Air has an ultra-compact and palm-sized design. It is super light for a 65-watt charger as UGREEN has used their proprietary Airpyra stacked architecture to shrink down its size while still delivering high output numbers. Making the Nexode Air charger even more compact is the folding 3-pin plug. The 3 pins fold down completely flat into the base of the charger. The charger comes with one USB-C port on the front of the device. The Nexode Air utilises advanced GaN technology, enabling fast, efficient charging with lower heat and a smaller form factor. Like with all UGREEN charging products, there is a whole host of safety features built in to protect both the charger and the devices you are charging and to prolong the life of the batteries being charged. It is certainly the smallest charger we have come across to date that delivers this type of power, making it a great solution for on-the-go charging. The UGREEN Nexode Air 65W Charger delivers super-compact power on the go and will be available directly from the UGREEN website with an RRP of €34.99. UGREEN FineTrack Series The UGREEN FineTrack Series is a selection of smart trackers, which are an alternative to something like Apple's AirTags. We took a look at the first version of the FineTrack series here last year. UGREEN have updated the line now with some new trackers which focus on longer battery life than the original devices. UGREEN FineTrack Mini 2 Smart Finder The UGREEN FineTrack Mini 2 Smart Finder is a small device, ideal for connecting to something like a set of keys. The tracker comes with a silicone case and keyring connector to protect it from life's rough and tumble and help you attach it appropriately. The FineTrack Mini 2 comes with an inbuilt battery which can last between 5 and 7 years. The device is IP68 rated, which means it can withstand being fully submerged in 2 meters of water for up to 60 minutes. It also comes with a very loud 110dB speaker to help you audibly locate the device if needed. UGREEN FineTrack 2 Smart Finder The FineTrack 2 Smart Finder is a small ball-shaped device which comes with a short lanyard for attaching. The FineTrack 2 Smart Finder has similar specs to the FineTrack Mini 2 Smart Finder, also coming with an internal battery rated for 5 to 7 years of use and a 110dB speaker. The design lends itself towards being attached to a backpack or similar, but its solid design means it will be suitable for many applications. Both of these devices have high-visibility fluorescent accents, which make them stand out in low-light environments. They are both certified to work with Apple's "Find My" service, which means you can benefit from their global network for locating your devices and also get smart reminders on your phone when you leave a device behind. It is really straightforward to add the devices in the Find My App. You just head to "Items", click the "+" symbol and then press the button on the front of the tracker. Once you have given the device a name, you can then track its location from within the app, get directions to where it is located, play a sound to help find it and keep an eye on the battery level. More Info/ Where to Buy? To find out more about either the Nexode Air 65W Charger or the new FineTrack devices, visit the UGREEN website here: https://www.ugreen.com/en-eu The products will be available to pick up from the UGREEN website directly or Amazon this week.

It ended BAD — lying, cheating, constant arguing… all of it. I was hurt, but I told myself I was done with that chapter and ready to move on.Since then, I've been working, hitting the gym, leveling up financially… doing everything that looks like healing.But here's the problem…I started talking to someone new recently, and I noticed something in me that I don't like.•I overthink EVERYTHING•I don't trust anything they say, even when they haven't given me a reason not to•I keep my guard up so high that I don't even know how to be soft anymore•And if I'm being honest… I still check my ex's page sometimesI tell people “I'm good”… but I don't know if I actually am.Part of me feels like I've grown.But another part of me feels like I just built better walls.Now I'm stuck wondering…

With the SBR tax stamps going to $0, I am considering having the barrel cut and threaded to 11”. This is basically the end of the stock forearm. I'm running it suppressed with subs only, as God and Jeremy demand. Is getting 5” cut off worth the effort for the performance/enjoyment return? Question from Andrew H Hey dudes, long time listener here dating back to 2016 and second time questioner. I'm in the market for a semi auto .22lr handgun so I'm sure Shawn already hates this question. It's purpose would be for frequent cheap target practice, and maybe occasional EDC as I prefer to carry 9mm. I am kind of between the Walther P22Q (tactical?) or the Taurus TX22, however welcome the groups recommendations on other firearms as well. Historically I've disliked every Taurus I've held or shot. Reviews are mixed on the P22 but I like the look and feel better. Love the show and all you guys do. Thanks until next time. #ssb Question from Nick F this year I turn 44, naturally I'd like to get myself a 44 magnum. y'all got any suggestions to solve my dirty harry dilemma? Question from Kyle R I was excited last year for Ohio to be hosting Guncon, but disappointed I couldn't make it. Sounds like I missed a bullet though. With Patton trying again, this time outside of “BEAUTIFUL” Youngstown, I'll get a second chance. Are all of the cast planning on going? Could this be the trip that finally gets Shawn to quit being a Commie and move to a respectable state?

Chelsey O'Brien returns to OTTB on Tap for a long-awaited catch-up, and this one starts with the real story behind her 2025 Retired Racehorse Project Makeover experience.Chelsey, a Northern Virginia trainer who rides for Pastured Place, is known for restarting off-track Thoroughbreds across multiple disciplines. In this episode, she walks us through what it actually takes to bring not one, but two OTTBs to the RRP. From hunters and Western dressage to barrels and ranch work, she shares how she develops versatile sport horses and why letting the horse choose its path is central to her training philosophy.This episode dives deep into the highs, the pressure, and the unexpected challenges of the RRP Makeover. Chelsey opens up about preparing young Thoroughbreds for competition, managing multiple disciplines, and what happens when things do not go according to plan. From historic rainstorms at the Kentucky Horse Park to tough decisions about scratching classes and putting the horse first, this is an honest look at the reality of competing OTTBs at a major event.We also talk about her experience competing in the Real Rider Cup, a unique event that raises money for Thoroughbred aftercare, where Chelsey stepped back into the jumper ring in a completely different setting and challenge.You will hear Chelsey's perspective on horsemanship under pressure, how setbacks can reinforce your training philosophy, and why the makeover is just one small part of a much bigger journey with these horses. This conversation is packed with insight for anyone training an OTTB, considering the Retired Racehorse Project, or navigating the balance between competition goals and doing right by the horse.In Part 1, we cover Chelsey's RRP experience from start to finish, including both horses, the lessons learned, and the moments that tested everything she believes about training and partnership.Part 2 will pick up with life after the makeover & the Real Rider Cup, and what happens when a training video goes viral.

Mission Reserve Cabernet Merlot 2024, Gimblett Gravels, Hawke's Bay, RRP from $25.00 The wine: A classic Hawkes Bay red blend with the power of Cabernet framing the softness of Merlot. Flavours of blackberry and tobacco, Doris plum, Kalamata olive, and dried herb, with some smoky wood muscle. Dry, lots of texture from tannins and acidity framing a core of dark berries and plum. It's fresh, it's new, and ready to drink today or lay down for another 1-2 years. The Food: A wine for casseroles or leaner meats, excellent for lamb lollypops or a home-made shepherd's pie. This style of wine has the power to stand up to a medium-rare steak as well as the softness for sweeter red meats such as lamb or venison. The season: 2024 has proven to be an excellent year for red wines from Hawke's Bay, and frankly from throughout NZ. Lots of dry warm days when it was needed and a cooling diurnal shift in the evenings. Releasing the wines now demonstrates the power and concentration of such wines that need more time in cellar, the wine producer's cellar before release.

Recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (RRP) has long been managed with repeated surgical debulking, sometimes requiring dozens of procedures over a lifetime. In this episode of BackTable, Dr. Aaron Friedman and guest host Dr. Stephen Schoeff discuss a major shift in care: immune-directed therapy targeting HPV 6 and 11. --- SYNPOSIS Dr. Friedman reviews the recent FDA approval of the Precigen product PAPZIMEOS (August 2025), a therapeutic vaccine designed to stimulate HPV-specific T-cell responses. Clinical trial data show that about half of treated adults required no additional surgeries over the following year, with many responders maintaining durable benefit for years. The conversation also covers traditional management strategies, adjuvant therapies like bevacizumab, HPV vaccination, and the evolving algorithm for adult RRP care. --- TIMESTAMPS 00:00 - Introduction02:13 - RRP Patient Types and Symptoms05:06 - Adult vs Juvenile Transmission10:46 - When to Escalate Treatment15:40 - Immunotherapy 18:55 - Trial Enrollment, Results and Dosing Rules26:17 - Durable Long Term Response30:47 - Who Should Get Treated32:34 - Logistics And Public Perception37:50 - Future Research And Prevention --- Recurrent Respiratory Papillomatosis Foundation Position Statement on the Management of Adults With RRPhttps://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/41543033/ Dr. Stephen Schoeffhttps://healthy.kaiserpermanente.org/washington/clinicians/stephen-schoeff-6848607 Dr. Aaron Friedman https://www.uchealth.com/en/provider-profiles/friedman-aaron-d-1609057587

Sleep expert Stephanie Romiszewski has always taken an unconventional approach to rest, and in this episode, she reveals why overthinking sleep is the real culprit behind poor rest. Stephanie explains why obsessing over sleep only makes it worse, and how we can fix our sleep problems by addressing our daytime habits instead of focusing on the night itself.She dives into the dangers of sleep trackers, sharing how even false data can increase anxiety and disrupt your performance. Stephanie also introduces her game-changing advice on the importance of a consistent morning routine, wake-up times, light exposure, and movement, and why these factors are far more influential than any bedtime ritual.She also shares her AWAKE acronym, a practical guide to improving sleep by embracing variation, avoiding the chase for perfect rest, and keeping a strong, balanced day.This episode offers a refreshing, honest perspective on sleep, revealing how our mindset and routines during the day play a bigger role in getting quality rest and maintaining peak performance.Stephanie's new book 'Think Less, Sleep More' is out now and published by Atlantic Books, RRP £14.99Heights
Smart toothbrushes have gone from novelty gadgets to genuinely sophisticated pieces of technology. They now feature Bluetooth connectivity, AI-powered brushing guidance, pressure sensors and apps that track brushing technique with alarming precision. Top-of-the-range smart toothbrushes can cost around €400, which is roughly the same price as a decent smartphone. The question is: does spending that kind of money on a smart toothbrush actually make sense? The pros and cons of smart dental tech Expensive gadgets that promise to revolutionise mundane tasks are often met with scepticism. Dental tech, however, occupies slightly different territory. Oral health has genuine long-term consequences, and most people are objectively poor at brushing their teeth properly. What you're actually paying for with smart dental tech Premium electric toothbrushes aren't just vibrating sticks with fancy packaging. The technology inside has become genuinely sophisticated. High-end models like Philips Sonicare 9900 DiamondClean Prestige use sonic or ultrasonic vibrations at frequencies that manually brushing simply cannot match. We're talking 30,000+ brush movements per minute creating fluid dynamics that clean between teeth and along the gum line. The smart features include pressure sensors that stop you scrubbing too hard and damaging enamel, timers that ensure you brush for the recommended two minutes, and position tracking that tells you which areas you're neglecting. The apps connect to your phone via Bluetooth, providing real-time feedback and building a picture of your brushing habits over time. The pressure sensor alone justifies the cost Here's something most people don't realise: brushing too hard causes more damage than not brushing enough. Aggressive brushing wears down enamel, causes gum recession, and leads to sensitivity issues that are expensive and unpleasant to fix. A single crown or veneer in Ireland will cost you far more than even the most premium electric toothbrush. Pressure sensors solve this problem elegantly. The brush automatically reduces power or stops entirely when you're pressing too hard, training you to use proper technique. After a few weeks, you naturally adjust your brushing style. It's the kind of feature that seems minor until you realise it's preventing hundreds or thousands of euros in future dental work. The Irish dental cost factor Irish dental care is notoriously expensive compared to much of Europe. A routine hygienist appointment costs €60-80, fillings start around €80-100 and anything more serious quickly runs into hundreds. The HSE covers very limited dental care for adults, meaning most of us are paying out of pocket for everything. In this context, investing in prevention makes financial sense. If a €400 toothbrush helps you avoid even one filling or root canal over its lifetime, it's paid for itself. Most premium electric toothbrushes last 5-10 years with proper care, meaning the daily cost works out to less than 20 cents – cheaper than your morning coffee. Where to find smart electric toothbrushes without the markup Electric toothbrushes carry ridiculous markups in some retailers. Pharmacies and department stores often charge full RRP, and even online retailers frequently inflate prices. Although you can find comprehensive smart dental tech on Notino at significantly better prices than traditional outlets. This matters because the barrier to entry is often price rather than effectiveness. If you can get a quality sonic toothbrush for €100-150 rather than €300+, the value proposition becomes much clearer. You don't necessarily need the absolute top-tier model to see benefits – mid-range options from reputable brands like Oral-B or Philips offer most of the important features at more accessible price points. The app experience varies wildly Bluetooth connectivity and companion apps are standard on premium models now, but the quality varies enormously. Some apps are genuinely useful, providing action...
After a season of intense growth, big goals, and even bigger emotions, OTTB on Tap is back for Season 3.In this return episode, Niamh and Emily come up for air and reflect honestly on burnout, boundaries, and what it really looks like to fully commit to something and then choose a new way forward.Inspired by a quote from Matthew McConaughey about the clarity that comes from fully committing instead of living in the limbo of a half-assed effort, and a reminder from Taylor Swift that energy is expensive, this episode sets the tone for a more grounded chapter for the podcast and for life with off-track Thoroughbreds.We reflect on the emotional and mental load of 2025, including the aftermath of the Retired Racehorse Project Makeover, and talk openly about equestrian burnout, OTTB identity beyond competition, and what sustainable progress really looks like for horses and humans alike. This conversation centers on non-linear OTTB journeys, rest without guilt, and redefining success in the OTTB retraining world.Spotify Wrapped 2025 and Standout EpisodesWe also dive into our Spotify Wrapped 2025 data, celebrating just how much OTTB on Tap grew this past year and what that growth has meant to us and the community.We each share our most memorable episodes:Niamh's picksS2 E27, Ramon MoyaS2 E16, Recycled Racehorse FalconryS2 E24, Ali Kuhn & Little HailEmily's picksS2 E7 & 8, Tom & Clare MansmannS2 E20 & 21, Aubrey GrahamS2 E31 & 32, Shannon RileyHonorable mentions, because we truly love every episode, include Trotty by Nature, Turning For Home, Pastured Place, and our RRP Chronicles trainers Amanda Chance, Harley Whittaker, Stephanie Parkot, and Chelsey O'Brien.Looking Ahead to 2026, The Year of the HorseWe frame 2026 as the Year of the Horse, a season focused on intentional movement, partnership, and forward motion that feels right rather than constant output.

The Landing Chardonnay 2024, Bay of Islands. RRP from $55.00 If you're heading to the Bay of Islands this summer, then I can highly recommend a day visit to The Landing. The land's suitability for viticulture was long ago identified by the missionary Reverend Samuel Marsden. He established the first permanent European settlement in New Zealand, near where our vineyard now sits. The Landing takes its name from its history as a place where early Polynesian and European immigrants to Aotearoa New Zealand made landfall and built new lives in a new country. And as the home of the first community where European missionaries and indigenous Māori people lived together in New Zealand The wine: A delicious wine with the stamp of site written throughout the aromas and flavours; beginning with a clay and stone mineral idea then salty seaside suggestions laced with fresh apple and grapefruit, then ripe yellow stone fruits. The layer of wood spice and lees adds complexity and texture accentuated by the acid line. Weight and mouthfeel, tautness and freshness are excellent. A wine that can be enjoyed from day of purchase or cellared for at least a year. The season: The 2025 vintage delivered one of the most balanced and high-quality growing seasons in recent years. A warm, settled spring ensured even flowering and excellent fruit set. Moderate rainfall in December and January maintained healthy canopies, while dry, sunny weather from February through March enabled optimal ripening. The food match: Homemade fettuccini ribbons in a light cream sauce with toasted pine nuts, button mushrooms and pieces of roasted salmon.

It's the same cash cycling through, you can't add those daily totals together. Sudden jumps like this is usually timing noise, month end balance sheet adjustments, bill settlements, corporate cash flows. Sometimes the RRP rate just looks slightly better than holding short term bills, and when that happens, money temporarily flows back into the Fed's vault. It's not QE, it's not a bailout, and it's not printing. Let's talk about what comes next. The Fed just cut rates twice and announced it's ending Quantitative Tightening on December 1. Starting then, it'll reinvest all maturing principal into short term Treasury bills, a quiet but major shift. That move stops the drain from QT and starts slowly feeding liquidity back into the system while shortening the duration of the Fed's holdings. In other words, they're pivoting from shrinking to steady, easing the pressure without calling it stimulus. So this little RRP bump is really just the market adjusting before the pivot, cash searching for a temporary home before the Fed starts quietly adding liquidity again through bill reinvestments. If reverse repo usage keeps climbing for weeks, that's when to pay attention. It could mean collateral scarcity or reserves tightening faster than the Fed wants. But right now, it's just the pipes humming, a short term ripple ahead of a much bigger shift in how liquidity will reenter the system. https://twitter.com/AlexMasonCrypto/status/1985445575634911511 Political/Rights Gov.

On Prophecy Radio episode #141, Karen and Kristen discuss the latest Percy Jackson and the Olympians news that they can find, including some minor casting they've overlooked, and some Rick Riordan Presents books and authors to make note of. We also breakdown The Red Pyramid chapters 35 and 36. New episodes of Prophecy Radio air every other week. All discussions are PG-13. News and Updates (00:16:25) Karen gets us caught up on her trip to New Orleans for her writing convention, as well as all the fun activities she found to do around town. Kristen has decidedly less to update on, but she's happy about some downtime in the middle of a busy September. No big official casting notices, but a couple things to keep in mind. The actor credited as Kronos in season 1: Will they show up as Kronos later, too? A camper credited as 'Sarah' is played by Threnody Tsai. Just in case that comes in handy later. Karen reached out on Insta to see if anyone could think of what season 3 characters we might still see cast. Grizzlymike718 reminded us about Apollo, Dr. Thorne, and Atlas. (As well as a few more very minor characters) Afantastyfanatic added in Oceanus and Rachel Elizabeth Dare. Final reminder that you can pick up your copy of A Court of the Dead VERY soon! It Lurks in the Night by Sarah Dass will arrive on January 27, 2026. The paperback for Serwa Boateng's Guide to Saving the World by Roseanne A. Brown comes out on April 7, 2026 We have a host of books being published in the next year from RRP authors via other publishing channels as well. A good variety of adult, fantasy, and even a little horror thrown in. The Red Pyramid discussion (00:38:05) Let's get started with our The Red Pyramid chapter 35 discussion. First up: the mini-recap. Sadie's ba travels to London where she seems some truly disturbing visions and is confronted by the truth that Carter would probably make a better ruler than her. Rude. Zia wakes Sadie to have a quick heart to heart with the boys away. Sadie puts her foot in her mouth for a second. Zia and Sadie are still at odds over what exactly is going on with Amos. Sadie makes a very specifically worded promise to Zia. Time for favorite scenes and favorite lines. And moving right along, it's time to discuss The Red Pyramid chapter 36. Our little group moves into the peace and calm of the eye of Set's storm. Time to get a little cloudy! How best to sabotage an Egyptian chaos agent from finishing his power pyramid. Why don't you contribute something helpful to the planning, Amos?! Zia is back in magical action (just a little light on the power at the moment) Amos' grand gestures are getting a little unremarkable these days. Karen is a little obsessed with all the red in that throne pyramid. From coffin to foot rest: poor Osiris. Real Amos is looking out, the other Amos is revealing something we all saw coming and didn't in equal measure. Favorite scenes and favorite lines from chapter 36. A quick bit of feedback where we wish a listener a very happy trip to see Rick Riordan and Mark Oshiro on tour! Thanks for listening, and tune in next time for episode 142, where we'll discuss The Red Pyramid chapters 37 and 38, as well as get you up to date on more Percy Jackson and Rick Riordan news.

Recurrent respiratory papillomatosis is a potentially life-threatening disease of the upper and lower respiratory tract caused by chronic infection with human papillomavirus type 6 or type 11. In the absence of approved therapies, people with the condition often undergo repeated surgeries to clear their airways. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration in August approved Precigen's Papzimeos, an immunotherapy that targets the underlying cause of the RRP, as the first approved therapy to treat the condition. We spoke to Kim McClellan, president of the Recurrent Respiratory Papillomatosis Foundation and Simon Best, associate professor of otolaryngology-head and new surgery at Johns Hopkins Medicine, about recurrent respiratory papillomatosis, the daily impact the condition can have on the lives of people with the disease, and what the approval of this therapy means for people living with the condition.
Seifried Zweigelt 2024, Nelson. RRP $20.00 A distinctive, ripe, and exuberant red berry fruit bouquet with suggestions of plums, then violets, blackberry, and boysenberry followed by lees and a delicate positive reduction. A nicely dry wine on the palate with flavours of boysenberry and tart plums, violet and spice. Taut and still developing with best drinking from 2026 through 2030+. The Food: Zweigelt is a cross from St. Laurent & Blaufränkisch developed in 1923 by Dr Friedrich "Fritz" Zweigelt. It has the softness and elegance from the St Laurant and robustness and backbone of acidity and tannins from the Blaufrankish. This means the wine will work rather well with foods that a little vigour, but not too much. My suggestion is therefore a venison sausage with an onion jam and side of lyonnaise potatoes. Higher quality venison sausage has both and earthy quality and meaty quality without being gamy, there's always a little fat layer in the sausage as well. So the Zweigelt uses it's St Laurant parent as the contrasting fruity side to the earthiness and the Blaufrankish parent as the contrast and deeper fruit flavours to the fatty side. The wine is also softened by the cream used in the potatoes. The Season: 2024 Nelson had a very good growing season in 2024. There was expectation for an El Niño year —there was 3 La Niñas in a row— however it was a hot, dry summer season. It gave growers a great flowering set and yields were predicted to be high. So overall, a great season – there was however a frost event, but any damage was mitigated by the plants reactive repair mechanism. Truth is there was some variability across the region, yet I do not think wine drinkers will have noticed anything at all. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Hey Lifers! Welcome back to ask uncut where we answer your deep and burning questions! We’re all sad that the post office has said that they will stop selling knick-knacks! We’re already mourning the novelty and surprise of what might be available today! Vibes:Britt - Punter’s Politics Laura -Feel Better, Live More Podcast - How To Future-Proof Your Brain: with Dr Daniel Amen Keeshia - Nonnas on Netflix Then we jump into your questions!TO WHAT EXTENT ARE WEDDING JITTERS NORMAL?Since getting engaged 7 months ago I have dreamt multiple times a week about an ex “situationship” from about 10 years ago! My fiancé and I have been together for over 6 years and lived together for 5 so getting married shouldn’t really feel that different. I love my fiancé and it hurts my heart to think of not being with him, but I also feel a little bit of a pit in my stomach when I think of the wedding which is in August. Is this just wedding nerves? I feel like I may have some commitment issues as I’ve never had a long relationship before this one. I also don’t love being the centre of attention so could this be contributing? Is this just a normal reaction before such a big commitment? I guess that’s why they joke about people getting cold feet before a wedding but I never thought that was real. Would love your opinions please x BF DOESN’T WANT TO GO DOWN ON ME BECAUSE OF OCDHi guys! I have a dilemma. I love when my partner goes down on me butttt because I am so comfortable with him I fart, poop, and pull out tampons in front of him. He has pretty much seen it all. We have been together for 4 years. He has diagnosed OCD, especially around cleanliness and because he has seen what he has seen, he doesn’t like to go down on me, even when I’ve suggested doing it as soon as we have had a shower. Is this something you think we can work on or do I have to find alternatives (toys)? Please give me your best advice. PARTNER SPENT 6K ON ROBLOX - HELPMy partner and I’ve been together 3 years and I love him more than anyone. When we first started dating he had a slight pokies issue and was completely transparent with it. Together we worked that habit out and he stopped gambling on pokies; he played poker once a week and has been fine. However, last night I went into his phone when he was asleep to see where he’s been spending money after he made a comment about being tight for money. I looked and there were 3 Roblox transactions for over $100 each from the weekend. So, today I logged into his account and went through all the transactions. I’ve worked out that since January he has spent over $6k on this stupid game, and he’s been lying about it. He said he didn’t get paid enough this week to get his savings out etc but in reality, he has been spending it on Roblox. I need advice because this is so fucking childish. I do realise it’s a deeper problem than playing games, it’s an addiction and I want to help him but how do I confront him about it? I just want what’s best for him. For context: we don’t share a bank account for these reasons. I am money savvy and a good saver and he is the absolute opposite. OPINION ON MARKETPLACE GIFTS?Can you buy someone something from Marketplace secondhand because that way you can actually afford it and you know that they’ll love it? Or can you give someone something that you have owned? For context, it’s my niece's 1st birthday coming up where we would normally spend $100–$150 on the gift. We were about to sell something that is hardly used by our 2 year old. The RRP is $260 but they sell for $200 on Marketplace. Can you do that? Or is that super tight? Then if you can do it, do you tell them it’s secondhand or just palm it off as bought?

ST rates have dropped sharply in the past few weeks, the past few days, in particular. The 4w Treasury bill now yields less than IOR, repo, even the Fed's RRP "floor." That's not all: the 3m10s spread has reinverted again. At the same time another major central bank just hit the panic button, going with a 50-bps cut only a few months after getting started.

Season 18 Episode 10: A left-handed opener from Perth who grew up idolising Justin Langer, in Marcus Harris you have a player who was meant to fit a certain mould. But over his long professional career, which started in 2011 when he smashed a big ton as an 18-year-old in his third game for WA, the 32-year-old has been on a journey that has seen his game evolve into the finished product following stints in the Test team. County cricket has been a significant part of that. He is currently at Lancashire in his fifth championship season, developing consistency that has confounded expectations of what his best might look like if he gets the chance for Australia again. A most engaging guest, he takes us through the rollercoaster ride and the calm that has followed.
