ChatGPT is back on the mound, David is back in the batter's box, and for the first time in more than a year it's time for five fresh pitches.This time, the questions aren't quizzes—they're provocations. What advantages did David have as an investor at 30 that he no longer has at 60—and what has he gained in return? Which Rule Breaker principle might prove less durable over the decades ahead? What could the future price of a single company tell us about the future of the world? And when two very different kinds of Rule Breakers compete for one spot in your portfolio, which way do you swing? Five questions designed to challenge assumptions, expose blind spots, summon a few strange hypotheticals, and perhaps produce an answer or two David himself didn't know he had.ChatGPT asks. David answers. Five questions, five swings. Play ball!

What if the most magnetic thing you could do for your business is simply be more of who you already are? In this episode, Erin sits down with Rebecca Richardson, known across social media as The Mortgage Mentor: a nationally ranked, award-winning loan originator with over 25 years in the industry, a speaker, a coach, and a soon-to-be author. This conversation will leave you sighing a breath of relief, because Rebecca gives you permission to stop performing someone else's version of success and start building a business around how YOU are wired to think, work, lead, and define success. Rebecca's story begins with a dad who was a real estate attorney, a finance bug caught while working for a financial planner in college, and a pitch to a small Tennessee mortgage broker: "If you'll teach me what it is, I'll work hard and I'll make you money." She fell in love with the problem-solving of the job (in her words, "one big algebra equation combined with a Rubik's Cube") and did everything the industry prescribed: rise and grind, always available, chameleon for every client, 50 calls on Monday morning. It earned her the President's Circle and the Chairman's Club… and by 2018, it earned her a wall. Health issues and personal losses left her with what she calls the honest starting point of her transformation: "I don't have another choice other than choosing to do things differently if I want to stay in this industry." So she changed the game. She shifted from chasing to attracting, went all in on video early (posting on TikTok in 2019 after hearing GaryVee say all small businesses should be there), and learned to trust the voice that said "I might be early, but I'm not wrong." The result? Her business tripled. At her peak she closed 225 units, then turned around and closed 226 the next year, with a licensed assistant and half a processor. And the trade-off wasn't more sacrifice. It was a better life. Listen in as Erin and Rebecca discuss: Growing up around real estate (her dad was a real estate attorney) and the pitch that got her hired at a small Tennessee broker: "teach me, I'll work hard, and I'll make you money" Why the mortgage business is "one big algebra equation combined with a Rubik's Cube," and why she loves the problem-solving and the human connection Doing it the prescribed way until 2018: Brian Tracy tapes, always-on availability, being a chameleon for everyone, and hitting the wall anyway The turning point that wasn't enlightenment: "I don't have another choice" The mindset shift from chasing to attracting, and why attracting requires the willingness to be different Being early on TikTok in 2019, the questions people asked ("are you trying to educate teenagers so they buy from you in 10 years?"), and trusting "I might be early, but I'm not wrong" 225 units, then 226 back-to-back, with an LOA and half a processor, and a better life balance as the trade-off Desperation vs. decisiveness: do we have to break before we have the courage to do something different? Why Rebecca shares the behind-the-scenes, not just the accolades: "I would rather talk about the process, because the process has to be individual" Letting go of "my work was my worth," the insatiable monster of proving yourself through volume The dopamine hit, the "death period," and being willing to be bad so you can get good The efficiency lens on social media: one 5-minute video can reach a room of 300 people The Hustle Olympics, cortisol addiction, and learning how to actually rest Rebecca's pacing tools: a locked loan for every working day of the year, and planning 3 things per day based on real capacity instead of an endless to-do list The Inside Out anxiety character check-in: pause, reflect, and decide instead of pushing until you crash Representation: "Wait, you can do that?" and why seeing other women run business differently changes everything Her upcoming book Rule Breakers and the Built by Design / Business Blueprint archetypes: strategist, visionary, connector, operator, and advocate Erin's reminder: fear is not fact, and fear is not a forecast About Rebecca Richardson, known as The Mortgage Mentor, is a nationally ranked, award-winning loan originator, speaker, and coach with over 25 years in the mortgage industry, recognized by Scotsman Guide, HousingWire, and National Mortgage Professional. She serves as Chief Innovation Officer at Mpire Financial, and after going all in on video in 2019, she built an audience of 175,000+ followers across social platforms that now drives roughly a third of her annual production. Through her Built by Design methodology, Rebecca teaches producers and team leaders how to build a business around how people are wired to think, work, lead, and define success, with hands-on coaching in personal branding, content, and audience building.

“The Father is the good life.” WHERE WE FIND OURSELVES Everyone wants the good life, and we chase it down two paths: rule keeping and rule breaking. They look like opposites, but both are the same bite of the same fruit, the good life without God. Both enslave. WHAT CHRIST HAS DONE When the fullness of time had come, God sent forth the true Son, born under the law, to become a slave like us and redeem us. He paid for our rule keeping and our rule breaking on the cross, felt like an orphan so we never have to, and sent the Spirit of the Son into our hearts, crying, “Abba! Father!” No longer slaves, but sons and heirs. VISION FOR THE CHRISTIAN LIFE For the church to become a house of returned sons and daughters: people who go to God in prayer to enjoy the Father rather than leverage Him, and whose love, joy, and peace spill out until rule keepers and rule breakers alike find the road home to the Father through our lives as free sons.

In the anxious days following Brexit, rather than predict the future, David asked a different question: Where are the opportunities? The result was a five-stock sampler built not on politics, but on optimism.Now a full decade has passed. Joined by longtime Fool Karl Thiel, we crack open the time capsule, revisit the original investment theses, score all five stocks against the market, and ask what a ten-year scorecard can teach that three years never could. Some ideas exceeded expectations. Others humbled us. All of them remind us why Rule Breakers look beyond the headlines and invest for the long haul.

Then it's time for another round of Quick Hits, where they make their World Cup Final predictions, react to the latest NFL player rankings—including Lamar Jackson's surprising drop, Jordan Love's placement, and Jalen Hurts being ranked below the league's average quarterback. They also break down their early NBA Summer League impressions (including standout performances from AJ Dybantsa and Darryn Peterson), debate LeBron James' future, and discuss Victor Wembanyama signing a long-term extension while reportedly taking less than the maximum. In this week's Rule Breakers, the guys cover the wildest stories in sports, from a fireworks mishap that went viral to reports of Bam Adebayo punching Tyler Herro and whether it compares to past teammate altercations like Draymond Green vs. Jordan Poole. They also react to Courtney Williams going off on a fan over a losing parlay, Conor McGregor's loss to Max Holloway, Marina Mabrey having a shoe thrown at her by Betnijah Laney-Hamilton, the latest on Terry Rozier, and an unfortunate moment where an umpire took a painful shot during a game.

Most leaders assume that when employees break rules, punishment is the answer. But according to researcher Michael Gill, associate professor at the University of Oxford Saïd Business School, that mindset overlooks a crucial reality: not all rule breaking is self-serving, and some of it may actually help organizations perform better. He explains his research synthesizing more than 250 studies and details the four main motivations behind why people break rules, why repeated violations may signal deeper organizational problems, and how leaders can distinguish harmful misconduct from employees trying to help customers, colleagues, or the business itself.

Why do revolutionary ideas so often come from outsiders? Do good scientists sometimes crowd out great ones? Do we still have room for scientific cowboys?

From Crick and Watson to nuclear bombs and AI, today we’ll cover it all with physicist, mathematician, and iconoclast Eric Weinstein.

In this week's episode, the guys tap in with a special guest from City Boi Sauce, breaking down the journey of building a flavor-forward brand from the ground up. We dig into the hustle, the setbacks, the wins, and the heat behind the bottle. From there, we jump into Rule Breakers, where the crew calls out the wildest violations of the week. And trust — folks were busy. We take a trip down NBA memory lane as we revisit the Clippers' complicated relationship with Chris Paul, what really went wrong, and whether that era was a missed opportunity or just bad timing. Speaking of awkward reunions, we talk about the viral moment of Trevone Boykin magically showing up at Russell Wilson's Thanksgiving, and why that deserves its own ESPN 30 for 30. Then the episode gets even more chaotic when The Game hops onstage yelling "Free R. Kelly" and "Free Diddy," and we discuss the internet's immediate "nah, this ain't it" reaction — along with the latest fallout from the Diddy documentary. Plenty of laughs, plenty of smoke, and plenty of sauce — literally and figuratively.
This week's episode is a full buffet of sports takes, random debates, and pure foolishness. Felix and Beav start by wishing the Brothers of Omega Psi Phi a happy Founders's Day and thank everyone who came out to celebrate over the rainy weekend. Beav then kicks things off with "Dre's Top 5". Then we slide into Quick Hits, headlined by LeBron officially returning to the Lakers, because of course he is—L.A. property taxes need him. Meanwhile in Inglewood, the Clippers new signing Bradley Beal is hurt again. Then things take a left turn into food anthropology as the fellas argue "How do you eat a taco?" Thanks to Skattabo, we learn way too much about folding technique, structural integrity, and the philosophy behind biting etiquette. From here, we enter Rule Breakers, and the segment does NOT disappoint: A 50-year-old father and his son suiting up together for Compton CC like it's a Disney+ special nobody asked for. A Michael Jordan impersonator furious he wasn't cast for something, reminding everyone why impersonators usually stay impersonating. Cam Newton pulling up on HBCU leadership 15 dudes packed in one car to go rob somebody—an operation so inefficient even GTA would glitch. And finally, a man who got tackled in the middle of church, proving that the Lord may forgive you, but security will not. It's sports, it's comedy, it's chaos. Another week of takes you didn't ask for, but absolutely needed. Enjoy!

Sign up for our Substack! Arthur Schopenhauer said, “Talent hits a target no one else can hit. Genius hits a target no one else can see.” Thomas Edison famously claimed, “Genius is 1% inspiration and 99% perspiration.” Helen Lewis has a different take entirely. To her, the term genius licenses noxious eccentricities, exasperating ego trips, and downright bad behavior. Sure, plenty of things qualify as acts of genius — Shakespeare's sonnets, penicillin — but when we pin the genius badge on a person instead of an achievement, we grant them membership in a supposedly superior class. That, Helen says, is the genius myth. She wants to demolish it and, in its place, tell the real story of how breakthroughs happen and who deserves credit.
