Story of the Week (DR):Walmart CEO Doug McMillon to retire in January and US operations chief John Furner will take over MMOn February 1, 2026, Mr. McMillon will continue in his capacity as an executive officer of the Company, he will report to the Chairman of the Board of Directors and he will continue to be employed as an associate of the Company through January 31, 2027. Mr. McMillon will also continue his service as a director on the Board until the June 2026 Annual Shareholders' MeetingJohn Furner, 51, a longtime insider and head of Walmart's U.S. operations, will take over. Furner, who started with the company in 1993, has more than 30 years in a variety of leadership roles across all three of Walmart's operating segments, including six years as the head of Walmart's U.S. business.Walmart Announces John Furner as President and Chief Executive Officer and DirectorGreg Penner still chair: Greg is only the third person, after his father-in-law, Rob Walton, and company founder, Sam Walton, to serve in this position.Doug's quotes on stakeholder capitalism:"We simply won't be here if we don't take care of the very things that allow us to exist: our associates, customers, suppliers, and the planet. That's not up for debate.""I think the growing interest in stakeholder capitalism stems from companies genuinely invested in doing good for our world, because it's the right thing to do and because businesses who take this approach are stronger.""Big problems don't rest on the shoulders of government or corporations alone... We need to reinvent capitalism.""Retailers will only survive if their business creates shared value that benefits shareholders and society... Basically, we'll design retail and other businesses so that all stakeholders (as many as possible) benefit: customers, associates/employees, shareholders, the communities we serve, and those in the supply chain."Under McMillon's leadership, Walmart has grown both top-line sales and profits. Its stock price is up 400% over the last decade. McMillon also led significant investments in both technology and labor, which are paying off for the company.Let women (or a black woman) do the work: Compensation Committee, led by chair Carla Harris and Marissa Mayer, are in control of succession planningJapan's Takaichi Says Firms Focusing Too Much on ShareholdersPrime Minister Sanae Takaichi: “I think there has been a trend of too much focus on shareholders. I will revise the corporate governance code to encourage companies to appropriately distribute resources not just to shareholders but to employees.”Takaichi added that she considered the excessive hoarding of capital by firms to be a problem, and said she wanted firms to effectively use it to invest in people including through wage hikes: “I would like to see firms conduct business not just thinking about clients, but also considering their contribution to the broader society.”Disney ditches 'diversity' and 'DEI' in business report for the first time since 2019In the company's 2025 Form 10-K filed after its recent Q4 meeting, the words "diversity," "inclusion," "DEI" or "diversity, equity and inclusion," appeared zero times. While the term "equity" appeared about 130 times, it was only used in a financial context.By contrast, the company's 2024 SEC filing included a dedicated section on diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI)."Our DEI objectives are to build and sustain teams that reflect the life experiences of our audiences, while employing and supporting a diverse array of voices in our creative and production teams," the 2024 report read.Initiatives under that DEI section included programs to engage "creative executives from underrepresented backgrounds" and "over 100 employee-led groups which represent and support the diverse communities that make up our global workforce."Earlier this year, Disney also removed two of its DEI programs, "Reimagine Tomorrow" and "The Disney Look," from its 2024 SEC 10-K report. The "Reimagine Tomorrow" program came under scrutiny after a 2022 meeting the program hosted featured a Disney executive touting her "not-at-all-secret gay agenda."A few other Disney headlines this week:Disney CEO Bob Iger wants people to use AI to make their own content for Disney+Disney is losing millions a day in its fight with YouTube TVDisney's CEO Sequel Isn't Having a Hollywood EndingActivist investor pushes Cracker Barrel shareholders to oust DEI specialistActivist investor Sardar Biglari intensified his campaign against Cracker Barrel's leadership, urging shareholders to vote against CEO Julie Felss Masino and board member Gilbert Dávila in the company's upcoming annual meeting.Two major proxy advisory firms, Institutional Shareholder Services (ISS) and Glass Lewis, also urged shareholders to vote against one or more Cracker Barrel directors over concerns about performance and the company's controversial August rebrand.ISS and Glass Lewis advised shareholders to vote against Dávila, a marketing and diversity specialist who serves as the chair of the compensation committee. Glass Lewis also recommended a vote against Jody Bilney, who chairs the company's nominating and corporate governance committee.Neither proxy firm recommended ousting the CEO.Biglari has launched eight proxy fights in 15 yearsLetter to shareholders: only one stated reason to get rid of Davila: “And why does Mr. Dávila, the board's so-called multicultural marketing expert who signed off on this debacle, deserve re-election?”Goodliest of the Week (MM/DR):DR: Should we really blame billionaires for our own financial struggles? In fact, more Americans say yesPeople increasingly see extreme wealth as contributing to an unfair society, and that sentiment is especially high with Gen Z and millennials.Sixty-seven percent said billionaires are “creating more of an unfair society,” an eight-point increase from the 2024 survey. Should the law limit wealth accumulation? Even Republicans have gone up 12% since last year to just under 50%MM: Netflix CTO says the company has no 'formal performance reviews'Assholiest Which Asshole Do You Blame of the Week (MM):Rivian just doubled its CEO's salary and gave him a $4.6B pay packageChair of the Comp committee Sanford Schwartz, who has 2% influence thanks to CEO Robert Scaringe's dual class dictatorship - the 8K announcing the new pay package blames the Comp committee: “On November 6, 2025, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of Rivian Automotive, Inc. [...] granted an option to purchase up to 36,500,000 shares of the Company's Class A Common Stock to Dr. Robert J. Scaringe.” They also wrote: “The foregoing summary of the terms of the 2025 CEO Award does not purport to be complete”, so we don't really know what the targets are anyway…Schwartz is an exec at Cox Enterprises - who invested $350m in Rivian in 2022“My hope is with the skills that we have,” says Cox president Sandy Schwartz, “and with all the things that we're learning, that we'll be the chief wholesale remarketer for all Rivians someday.”DR: Robert Scaringe, who, in addition to leading his money losing company Rivian, has Altman/Musked not one, but TWO separate spinoff companies (Mind Robotics, where he's on the board and owns 10% of the company, and does robots, and a “micromobility” spinoff called Also, Inc where Scaringe is Also Also on that board)Scaringe did get not one, but THREE degreesHe once estimated he spent “about 5%” of his time with his wife and three kids - they divorced this yearDual class shares, with which Scaringe can vote out the entire board if they DON'T give him whatever comp plan he wants?Elon Musk, who perfected the art of the meme compensation which this basically copies, but maybe worse?22,000,000 shares (60%) in 11 tranches for meeting share price targets between $40 and $140 per share - MEME IT UP BABY!7,250,000 shares in 3 tranches to make income7,250,000 shares in 3 tranches for cash flowMaybe Scaringe plans on a meme campaign to get that price up, get paid, then use the money on his OTHER new spinoff companiesVerizon to Cut About 15,000 JobsOLD NEW CEO Dan Shulman, who was lead independent director and on the board with the old CEO for 7 yearsHe first penned his welcome memo to employees by saying, “The biggest competitive advantage we have is our team.” He followed it with his first earnings call 20 days later with some more inspiration for employees: “To fund our investments in growth, we must significantly cut costs. We will reduce our cost to serve, streamline our operating model and be much more capital efficient.”Everyone loves hearing “you've been fired so we can be more capital efficient”DR: NEW OLD CEO Hans Vestberg, who is still on the board as a “special advisor”His farewell post said, “I've dedicated my life… the last nine years almost… to Verizon. It's an amazing company, amazing employees.”Vestberg once said in an interview he's been keeping a daily score of his emotional state for more than a decade, and when he scores himself below a certain level, he takes no meetings.I wonder if having your ex-lead director as a human body shield for firing 15,000 humans rates as a 7 out of 10?Chair of the Human Resources Committee of the board, Laxman Narasimhan, who has himself experienced being cut from his job as CEO of StarbucksVerizon employees, for costing too muchActivist investor pushes Cracker Barrel shareholders to oust DEI specialistThe CEO Julie Felss Masino, who is the leader and must have chosen to destroy the company by expanding its reach beyond white, overall wearing octogenarians.The DEI specialist - Gilbert Davila - who clearly DEI'ed the logo since his speciality is DEI and he is brown.Sardar Biglari, the “activist” that no one cares about, since he's pushing to vote against CEO Masino (a woman!) and Davila (a brown man!) using the 40% bot-driven outrage machine online as his excuseSardar's letter to investors on November 6 included this reasoning for voting against Davila, who is a diversity marketing expert and has been on the board since 2020: “And why does Mr. Dávila, the board's so-called multicultural marketing expert who signed off on this debacle, deserve re-election?” - that's it, that's his entire reasoning.Sardar's other winning holdings include Steak n' Shake, Maxim magazine, and Jack in the Box, all very popular and not at all pointlessDR: ISS and Glass Lewis, who not only suggested a vote for Masino but AGAINST Davila (because racism?), but GL actually suggested ALSO voting against Jody Bilney (chair of nom and a woman) - WHO WAS PUT THERE BY SARDAR BIGLARI in 2022Headliniest of the WeekDR: No one leaving New York City because of Mamdani, say two top real estate CEOsMM: Why Palantir CEO Alex Karp exhumed the 'whole yard' of his childhood homeRosebud… sorry, Rosita… his childhood dog. And no, that's not a joke - the dog was named Rosita (not Rosebud) and he wanted to rebury it at his New Hampshire homeThe university professors who owned Karp's childhood home "initially balked" at his request. Ultimately, they agreed, he wrote, and "Karp subsequently made a donation to the university where they taught.""Rosita played a tremendous role in our life," the Palantir CEO said. "It was more like, she's very, very high IQ. It was honestly more like a human than a dog." - also, the dog did NOT graduate from an elite universityWho Won the Week?DR: Jason Turner, a Walmart management associate who made $174k last year and is the brother-in-law of new Walmart CEO John Furner.MM: Shoppers at Costco, because Target just rolled this out:Target launches ‘10-4' training, encouraging workers to smile at customersIf employees are 10 feet away from a shopper, they should smile, make eye contact and wave. However, if they are within four feet of the shopper, they should personally greet the guest, smile and initiate a warm and helpful interactionAs if no one shopping there was the fault of employees not smilingAlso, US, because Trump is investigating getting rid of shareholder voting!PredictionsDR: ISS and Glass Lewis announce a “We Give Up 2026” policy where any director who could be blamed for something because they have black or brown skin gets an automatic “vote against” recommendation. MM: Does a window seat on a plane need a window? United Airlines says not. Yes, United Airlines is arguing against a lawsuit brought by people who bought a window seat but there was no window, that a window seat doesn't literally mean has a window. Prediction: Danone claims its Silk Almond Milk remove the “Contains Almonds” warning from the label and puts out a press release that almond milk does not literally mean almonds, it's more like almond-like-milk-colored-drink.

ABOUT THIS EPISODEHey friend
Today on the Daily Nugget, Mike finishes Romans 14, starting from verse 13, and talks about the “weaker brother” — focusing on issues like wine and food prohibitions. He shares how the core of being a Christian is learning to set aside our own desires for the sake of Christ and His people, choosing love and unity over personal freedom.
"Just say no" is the worst advice you could ever receive to help you set boundaries. Stop treating boundaries like a willpower contest and start understanding what your brain is trying to protect. We pull apart the well-meaning but shallow advice to “just say no” and explain why high-achieving women so often snap back to people-pleasing the moment they feel pushback or disappointment in the room. The real driver isn't a lack of strength—it's a nervous system trained to read limits as threats to reputation, income, and belonging.We walk through the neuroscience in plain language: how the amygdala overrides your prefrontal cortex, why fight-flight-freeze shows up as overexplaining, reflexive yeses, or avoidance, and how subconscious beliefs link boundaries with danger. From there, we offer a practical path to rewire those links. You'll learn to surface the precise fear your brain predicts, gather real counter-evidence, regulate your body in the moment, and use concise boundary language that respects both the relationship and your capacity. Expect simple tools like the physiological sigh, value-linked scripts that shorten guilt spirals, and low-stakes reps that teach your system that no is safe.Across four years of working with leaders and entrepreneurs, we've seen what changes when limits become second nature: calmer calendars, higher quality work, cleaner collaboration, and more energy for the people you're doing this for in the first place. If you've ever wished you could set a boundary without the mental gymnastics and fallout, this conversation gives you the roadmap—rooted in brain science and proven in real-world careers. Listen now, try one tool this week, and tell us what shifts. If this helped, follow the show, share it with a friend, and leave a quick review so more high achievers can break the burnout cycle.Have a question that you want answered on the show?

In this episode, I'm sharing the three-part framework I use to evaluate every summit speaking invitation that comes my way. You'll learn how to assess whether an opportunity aligns with your business goals, spot the red flags that signal you should run the other way, and develop the confidence to say no when something isn't the right fit.

I'm diving deep into the art of saying no during the holiday season. As a mom who's been a chronic people-pleaser, I've learned that saying yes when you mean no only leads to resentment and exhaustion. I share my personal journey of trying to make everyone happy during my parents' divorce, and how it left me stressed and disconnected. The key is to prioritize your family's needs first. I recommend sitting down together and discussing what everyone truly wants from the holidays. Learning to set boundaries isn't about rejecting others – it's about protecting your peace and showing up authentically. By saying no with love and clarity, we can create more meaningful connections and teach our children the importance of self-care and honest communication.

Ryan Wrecker talks with Niles Stephens about Prop S in Missouri and why he is urging voters to vote no. Stephens explains that the measure would open the door for property tax increases and argues taxpayers are already overburdened. He points to Rockwood School District, noting they raised taxes and spent $130,000 on this election while the district budget has grown by $100 million since 2014. He highlights that Rockwood now has 29 more administrators despite 2,500 fewer students, and taxpayers are already paying $19,000 per student compared to the state average of $15,000.

This episode of the Tactical Living Podcast, hosted by Coach Ashlie Walton and Sergeant Clint Walton, takes a direct look at one of the most unspoken realities in law enforcement: staying in a career out of financial obligation (Amazon Affiliate), identity attachment, or emotional survival—not passion. We break down how many officers find themselves trapped in what's often called the "Paycheck Prison." The benefits are good. The pension feels too close to walk away from. The overtime is necessary. And the identity of being "the officer" feels too deeply stitched into who you are. But staying in a job that's crushing your mental and emotional health has long-term consequences—not just for you, but for your family, your spirit, and your sense of purpose.

In this episode we unzip a recent episode of the Naughty Gym podcast where hosts Scott and April, joined by guest Luna, dive into the art of handling rejection with grace and confidence. They unpack a real-life scenario, where a couple navigates the complexities of propositioning only one partner in a “hot wife” dynamic. The discussion explores whether couple play was always on the table, if rudeness played a role, or if mismatched expectations led to the awkward moment. With practical tips, they emphasize the importance of clear communication, setting realistic expectations, and exercising the “rejection muscle” to handle these situations peacefully without pointing fingers or creating defensiveness. The trio also digs into the emotional side of rejection, stressing the value of empathy for the other couple and the confidence to say “yes” or “no” without pressure. They tackle the pitfalls of ignoring preferences—like pushing for a threesome when it's not on the menu—or one partner taking the lead while the other disengages, potentially leaving someone feeling like they're “taking one for the team.” Scott, April, and Luna share insights on avoiding these traps, fostering mutual respect, and keeping the vibe fun and sexy, even when desires don't align. Whether it's learning to handle rejection or setting boundaries with kindness, this episode is packed with advice for navigating those tricky “no, thank you” moments in any dynamic.

Several Senate Republicans have now stood up to Donald Trump by REJECTING his nominee to head up the Office of Special Counsel. This is the second time in recent weeks Senate Republicans have said no to Trump nominees. Moreover, even Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene has broken from Trump over the release of the Epstein files and the need for affordable health care. These are clear and compelling signs that Trump is getting weaker by the day.

On this episode of Pillow Talk with Alii Michelle, Alii calls out racist, antisemitic white nationalist Nick Fuentes and his attempt to elevate himself as a representative of the conservative and America First movements.
We had so much fun with this episode (probably because it was a break from potty training)! The main topic was a study that found a correlation between energy availability and performance across a season in collegiate runners. It was a powerful, objective look about what happens when the body is underfueled. You know it's a good study when it makes us add 2 more eggs to the post-podcast frying pan (10 eggs total).And this was truly one of our most joyous episodes ever! Other topics: how potty training and coaching are similar, a follow-up on uphill treadmill workouts, the theory of “just say no to rhabdo” runs, training plans, a study on the kindness v. rudeness of AI prompts, drama at the Kona Women's Ironman Champs, poles and microspikes at Western States, the Chicago Marathon and fueling, Suunto sues Garmin, how to think about long-term growth, taking in gels, taper theory, psychology of fast finishes, and a question on business growth.What happens when our nutrition is largely based on eggs and Leo's chicken nuggets?

Tenderoni Hotline #2: Hello my love! Welcome back to the Tenderoni Hotline, our sweet little corner of the Feminist Wellness podcast where I answer your most tender, honest, and heartfelt questions about healing, self-trust, and nervous system care. In today's episode, we're talking about what happens when someone asks you what you want... and your mind goes blank. We'll explore why identifying your needs can feel so hard, even with something as simple as choosing dinner, and how childhood experiences and emotional outsourcing shape our capacity to know and express what we truly want. We'll also look at why saying no can feel so guilty it makes you say yes just to make the discomfort stop, and how that guilt is often grief in disguise. You'll learn gentle, practical nervous system tools to reconnect with your inner yes and no, and how to start making choices that center you, with more confidence and less shutdown. This work is compassionate, science-backed, and all about honoring the wisdom of your body. Because you deserve to trust yourself, feel safe inside your own skin, and belong deeply to you.
