The Atlanta Braves completed a sweep of the defending World Series champion Los Angeles Dodgers at Truist Park on Thursday night. The game featured a matchup between Chris Sale and Yoshinobu Yamamoto, and while the latter threw a great game, it was the 2024 NL Cy Young Award winner who stood out with a complete-game shutout. On this episode of Baseball Bar-B-Cast, Jake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman talk about what was a career-defining outing from Chris Sale against the Dodgers, one that felt very much like a throwback performance from starting pitchers of old. They discuss the excitement of hopefully getting to see Sale pitch in the postseason again after he was injured during the Braves' last playoff run and whether he can possibly add another Cy Young to his trophy case. Jake and Jordan also talk about Tarik Skubal returning to Detroit this weekend to face his old club, Shohei Ohtani eyeing a return to the mound on Sunday and why the Dodgers losing Roki Sasaki to the IL comes with unfortunate timing. The guys then welcome Milwaukee Brewers first baseman Jake Bauers to discuss his incredible turnaround this season, playing behind Jacob Misiorowski and getting Aaron Judge out as a position-player pitcher. They then close the show by making their picks for this week's The Good, The Bad and The Uggla. 1:41 - The Opener: Chris Sale's complete-game shutout 16:59 - Could the Braves and Dodgers meet in October? 24:09 - Skubal, Ohtani and Roki updates 33:36 - Jake Bauers joins the show 49:29 - Playing with Jacob Misiorowski 58:40 - The Good, The Bad & The Uggla Subscribe to Baseball Bar-B-Cast on your favorite podcast app:
It's hard to argue against Mauricio Dubon as MVP of this Braves team. He does it all, does it with an affectious energy, and has been as clutch as anyone! He said Chris Sale is a Hall of Famer and Thursday night against the Dodgers was just another feather in Sale's Hall of Fame hat. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Is it ever okay to put a price on a kidney? Why is it illegal to sell an organ, but perfectly legal to sell blood plasma? This episode explores the world of "repugnant transactions" — the markets we find morally offensive — and asks why we ban certain markets as "gross" or "unethical" while ignoring others that might cause more harm. In this episode of The Gray Area, host Bryan Walsh sits down with Nobel laureate Alvin Roth, who wrote the recent book Moral Economics, to discuss how markets are the key to understanding our most deeply held social values. They break down why society chooses to ban certain transactions, how those choices affect real lives, and whether we can use "market design" to save people without violating our ethical standards. Host: Bryan Walsh, Vox Editorial Director Guest: Alvin Roth, Professor of Economics at Stanford University and author of Moral Economics: From Prostitution to Organ Sales, What Controversial Transactions Reveal About How Markets Work.

Munaf Manji and Dave Essler talk betting for Friday. Munaf Manji and Dave Essler close out the daily run of Cash That Ticket on the Straight Outta Vegas AM feed with a full Friday MLB card and a look ahead to football season. At 0:10 Manji frames the show as the final daily episode for the year, and at 1:18 Essler reflects on a season that swung from hot to cold before settling in the positive, adding that he cashed a client winner the night before. At 1:56 Manji thanks the audience for riding out a near daily schedule and confirms he and Essler will still team up at least twice a week once football season begins. The card opens at 3:27 with the headline matchup of the day, Chris Sale against Jacob Misiorowski as the Braves visit the Brewers with a rare six run total on the board. At 4:10 Essler leans toward Milwaukee for the full game on bullpen strength while still praising Sale, and at 5:13 Manji prefers an under look through five innings paired with the Brewers on the money line. At 7:00 the pair turns to Boston hosting San Francisco, where Sonny Gray opposes Logan Webb. Essler at 7:15 likes the under and the Giants on the run line off Webb's consistency, and Manji at 8:30 backs the under with Gray's strong home and night splits. At 9:31 Freddy Peralta faces Trevor Rogers as the Rays visit Baltimore, with Essler at 9:56 siding with the Orioles given Peralta's recent familiarity with this lineup, and Manji at 11:11 adding Peralta's rough road and night splits. At 12:17 Troy Melton takes on Noah Cameron as the Tigers visit Kansas City, with Essler at 12:41 backing Detroit after Cameron's grueling prior start, and Manji at 13:29 reinforcing the pick with Melton's dominant road numbers. At 15:07 Nick Lodolo opposes Eduardo Rodriguez in Cincinnati and Arizona, a matchup both hosts admit they rarely get right, with Essler at 15:10 wary of laying a heavy price on Rodriguez and Manji at 17:12 flagging fatigue after a heavy recent workload. At 18:49 Matthew Boyd and the Cubs visit Emerson Hancock and the Mariners, with Essler at 19:16 siding with Seattle's bullpen and Manji at 20:58 eyeing a Cubs team total angle instead. Essler at 22:49 races through the rest of the slate, touching on Washington, Yoshinobu Yamamoto, Bubba Chandler and the Pirates, Reid Detmers and MacKenzie Gore in the Angels and Rangers game, a wary look at Hayden Wesneski and the Astros, and a Twins and Padres line that has moved firmly toward Minnesota's Connor Prielipp despite public tickets piling onto San Diego's Randy Vasquez. With the baseball card finished, Essler at 26:58 names the Rams over eleven and a half wins as his favorite NFL win total, pointing to a loaded roster and head coach Sean McVay, while Manji at 28:24 counters with the Vikings over eight and a half, betting on a bounce back year from Kyler Murray under Kevin O'Connell and a friendly home schedule. On the under side, Essler at 30:23 fades the Packers over a suspect secondary and a difficult slate, and Manji at 33:07 takes the Eagles under ten and a half, citing another new offensive coordinator working with Jalen Hurts. The season's final best bets arrive late, with Essler at 37:14 backing the Blue Jays to score over two and a half runs against Cam Schlittler and the Yankees, and Manji at 38:30 closing the year with the Tigers on the money line behind Melton against Cameron and the Royals. Before signing off at 43:07, the hosts preview a busy football stretch ahead, including a new Dream Pod with RJ and a season long props pod with Sleepy, and Manji thanks the show's record keeper, Kelvin, for another season of tracking results.

In Episode 2 of Titans on Tomorrow, Ben Shapiro and Steve Ballmer talk about how companies are harnessing AI to explode productivity, how individual employees can make themselves invaluable by becoming AI natives, and the scary extremes we need to be working NOW to prevent as this technological revolution continues to unfold. Steve Ballmer was employee #30 at Microsoft, CEO from 2000-2014, and remains its largest individual shareholder and one of the richest men in the world. He is the owner of the L.A.

Art Marketing Podcast: How to Sell Art Online and Generate Consistent Monthly Sales
A buyer asks, "Can you do any better on the price?" Most artists feel their stomach drop — like they just lost something. I don't accept that premise. Want to join Patrick for a live webinar? He hosts one every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. Register here: asf.today/webinar It's my strongly held belief that more art gets sold at a discount than at full price — especially at higher price points, especially in person. Once you know that, everything changes. You can prepare for negotiation, and you can negotiate on your terms. Last episode we covered the maths of pricing your art for Q4. This one is what happens after the price is on the wall: the rules, the tradecraft, and why the buyer who negotiates is the best thing that ever happened to you. In this episode: The premise I refuse to accept: that entering a negotiation means you're the one losing How I learned to reject a premise — the story of why I haven't been offended in decades A car dealer, a real estate agent, and Thomas Crown — why negotiating an art sale is different from every negotiation you've seen The one metric (new customers acquired per year) and the long game: you're not playing a one-shot game, and that changes everything Sun Tzu was right — the battle is won before it starts Your three rules: know your floor, have a range of pricing, and never give something up without getting something in return Why negotiation is the greatest thing that's ever happened: it signals intent My Craigslist career — over a million dollars of cars, boats, and gear, and what the "$7,500 cash, I'll pick it up today" guy taught me The serious buyer drives over to look at the car — for an artist, that's the phone call or the Zoom Get out of the DMs: every step from message to email to call to in-person gets more real The asks list: what to trade for instead of dropping your price Q4 is coming — which means sales are coming, which means negotiations are coming This week's homework: write your asks list before Q4. Know your floor on every piece and be comfortable with it. And decide right now what you'll ask for the next time someone asks you to come down. Related episodes: How to Price Your Art for Q4 — the maths this episode builds on Advanced Pricing Strategies for Artists and Photographers — the pricing opus, including the original negotiation rule Discounting Your Art or Photography.

The business world is obsessed with who has the biggest AI model, the fastest chips, and the most impressive benchmarks. But the real question shaping the next decade of technology is not about computing power. It is about trust. Meta recently made headlines when Mark Zuckerberg published a 6,500-word manifesto outlining his vision for democratizing artificial intelligence, and at the same time announced plans to spend up to $145 billion on data centers. Meanwhile, LinkedIn is grappling with an AI content crisis that reveals just how confused platforms are about the role of artificial intelligence in human communication. These stories are connected, and understanding them through a category design lens changes everything about how you see them. This is just some of the topics that Pirates Christopher Lochhead, Eddie Yoon and Bri Clark discuss on this episode of Pirate Street Journal. Each week, the Category Pirates pick three headlines worth paying attention to and break down the category underneath. You're listening to Christopher Lochhead: Follow Your Different. We are the real dialogue podcast for people with a different mind. So get your mind in a different place, and hey ho, let's go. Zuckerberg Meta’s Big Vision Has a Bigger Problem Zuckerberg’s manifesto is genuinely compelling as a piece of category design. He frames a problem, presents a new vision for the future, and positions Meta as the company that will put artificial intelligence into the hands of everyone. That is textbook category design thinking, and directionally, much of what he writes makes a great deal of sense. The problem is that the person delivering this vision is Zuckerberg himself. Meta’s business model is built on advertising, and advertising gets more profitable the more intimately the platform knows you. No matter how inspiring the language in a 6,500-word essay, the underlying give-to-get dynamic remains deeply unfavorable to the user, and a history of privacy scandals makes it nearly impossible to take the trust language seriously. The AI Abundance Argument and Why It Falls Short One of the more attractive ideas in Zuckerberg’s manifesto is the concept of AI abundance, the idea that everyone should have access to powerful artificial intelligence tools for free or at very low cost. On the surface, this sounds generous and even visionary. But abundance without accountability is not a category strategy. It is a data acquisition strategy dressed up in philosophical language. Compare this to what companies like Google have done with moonshot projects such as Waymo and AlphaFold. These initiatives demonstrate a give-to-get dynamic that at least gestures toward broader human benefit. Meta has consistently struggled to articulate what the consumer actually receives beyond the product itself. The metaverse is the clearest example of a massive investment that never produced a meaningful answer to the question of what it was for. LinkedIn’s AI Slop Problem and the Scarlet Letter Trap LinkedIn is now reporting that 41% of long-form posts on the platform are entirely AI generated, and the company has introduced a button allowing users to flag content they suspect was written by artificial intelligence. On the surface this sounds like a reasonable response to a real problem. In practice, it is a dangerous overreaction that punishes legitimate creators alongside lazy ones. The future of creating everything is vibe creating, meaning humans working in genuine collaboration with AI to produce ideas, arguments, and content that reflect real thought and real points of view. Labeling that output as synthetic or slop is the equivalent of telling someone their spreadsheet contains synthetic math. If a piece of content is unhelpful or obvious, the solution is an unfollow button, not an AI scarlet letter that penalizes the tool rather than the thinking behind it. To hear about all the topics in this week's The Pirate Street Journal, download and listen to this episode. You can also read more Pirate Street Journal entries in the Category Pirates newsletter.

It's a Fun Day Monday on The Majority Report On today's program: Donald Trump threatens to bomb the s*** out of Oman if they get in the way of a deal in a phone call with Fox News correspondent Trey Yingst. JD Vance says on the Fox News that the number one goal for the Iran war is to keep gas and oil prices lower for Americans.
