In this episode, Shannon Werb, CEO of Array Behavioral Care, discusses how an employed clinical workforce, interoperable technology, and evidence based care pathways are helping health systems deliver consistent, high quality behavioral health services. He shares lessons on integration, scalability, and why measurement based care is becoming an operational standard rather than a nice to have.

The town of Chickasha, Oklahoma was shaken to its core when they heard the news that two were dead, one of which was a four year old child, and another was seriously maimed. Their outrage grew when they learned the name of the culprit was Lawrence Paul Anderson, a career criminal that should have never been out of prison. But nothing prepared them for when he confessed to his crimes and revealed they were far worse than first presumed.Get commercial free access to over a decade of Sword and Scale's true crime podcasts at http://swordandscale.com

Jason Lemkin is the founder of SaaStr, the world's largest community for software founders, and a veteran SaaS investor who has deployed over $200 million into B2B startups. After his last salesperson quit, Jason made a radical decision: replace his entire go-to-market team with AI agents. What started as an experiment has transformed into a new operating model, where 20 AI agents managed by just 1.2 humans now do the work previously handled by a team of 10 SDRs and AEs. In this conversation, Jason shares his hands-on experience implementing AI to run his sales org, including what works, what doesn't, and how the GTM landscape is quickly being transformed.We discuss:1. How AI is fundamentally changing the sales function2. Why most SDRs and BDRs will be “extinct” within a year3. What Jason is observing across his portfolio about AI adoption in GTM4. How to become “hyper-employable” in the age of AI5. The specific AI tools and tactics he's using that have been working best6. Practical frameworks for integrating AI into your sales motion without losing what works7.

What if I told you that one of the best operations experts in real estate started out knowing absolutely nothing about operations?In this episode, I sit down with Jen Schiff to unpack her journey from ground zero to becoming a powerhouse behind some of the most efficient, high-performing businesses in the industry. We talk about what actually moves the needle in business when growth feels slow, messy, or stuck—and why speed, relationships, and systems matter more than perfection.Jen pulls back the curtain on what most leaders get wrong when hiring, onboarding, and scaling teams, and how AI is no longer optional if you want to operate at a high level. This conversation is real, tactical, and eye-opening—especially if you're an agent, operator, or entrepreneur who wants to play bigger without burning out.

Jeffrey Epstein's appointment calendars, disclosed through court filings and investigative reporting, painted a stark picture of the scale and routine nature of his alleged abuse. Entries from certain periods showed Epstein scheduling meetings with multiple young women and girls in a single day—sometimes as many as seven—often listed only by first names or initials. Legal analysts and investigators said the calendars suggested a tightly organized, repetitive system rather than sporadic or incidental encounters, reinforcing accounts from survivors who described abuse as frequent, transactional, and embedded into Epstein's daily life.to  contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

New Year's Day hits different when you're recording with a live studio audience, passing the mic around, and starting the year with a mix of laughs, honest reflection, and big goals. In this Building Better Developers special episode, Rob Broadhead and Michael Meloche kick off 2026 by sharing a "good thing / bad thing" recap from a recent Christmas party—then opening the floor to the team to talk about the New Year developer goals. It's casual, it's real, and it's a reminder that growth (personal and professional) usually starts with clarity. Michael's 2026 New Year developer goals: Payoff and Growth When the conversation turns forward, Michael shares something that hits hard for anyone building a business—or rebuilding momentum. He describes the last year (or two) as a heavy investment: retooling, branding, marketing, refining direction, and putting in the work that doesn't immediately show results. Now, in 2026, he's looking for payoff—not in a "get rich quick" way, but in the sense of seeing the fruits of consistent effort. He also mentions narrowing focus for Develpreneur and wanting to see that a clearer direction translates into growth. There's something powerful about that moment: when you stop trying to do everything, and start building depth in the things that matter. If you spent 2025 laying groundwork, 2026 is your chance to ship with confidence. Foundations aren't the finish line—but they make speed possible. Rob's 2026 New Year developer goals: Scale, Network, and Teach Again Rob's focus is straightforward: he wants to keep growing the business, but also move from "a couple projects went well" to scaling—bringing in more work and creating consistent momentum. One of the practical strategies he calls out is getting out more: business conventions, tech conventions, and networking. Not just online—real-world conversations that create opportunities. He also hints at something long-time listeners will appreciate: he wants to relaunch teaching episodes. That includes new "kitchen sink" style applications, plus content around AI and emerging technologies. It's a return to hands-on learning—less theory, more building. Team Voices on New Year developer goals: Milestones, Features, and New Seasons Wes, a programmer at RRB Consulting, brings a personal win that feels like pure New Year energy: his car is getting paid off early in the year. That's freedom. Breathing room. And honestly, a reminder that progress isn't only measured in commits and deployments. Professionally, Wes is excited about projects with features coming together in the first quarter—things moving from "in progress" to "in the client's hands." Natalie shares that 2026 is a "new season of change" for her—wrapping up big chapters and getting ready to reinvest significant time back into RRB. Rob adds another layer: he's planning to be a digital nomad in 2026 and launching a site to document the adventures and the tech behind them. One Day at a Time (Yes, Even for Developers) As the episode closes, there's a simple challenge: don't give up on your New Year's resolutions on day one. Make it to day two. Day three. Day ten. Keep it small. Keep it moving. And then: back to interviews, back to Building Better Foundations, and the ongoing push toward major milestones—like eventually hitting episode 1000. Pick one small habit you can keep for 10 days. If you can do 10, you can do 30. If you can do 30, you can change your year. Ready for 2026? This episode isn't about perfect plans—it's about momentum, focus, and showing up. Whether you're chasing payoff after a long build season, scaling your business, shipping features, or stepping into a new chapter… the message is the same: Start. Today. Then do it again tomorrow.

In this final episode of 2025, Drew Brucker and Rory Flynn zoom out to dissect what actually mattered this year across Midjourney, Nano Banana Pro, ChatGPT Image 1.5, Weavy, video models, workflows, and the uncomfortable truth about how fast all of this is moving.They unpack the real inflection points no one labeled at the time. Why March quietly changed everything. Why Nano Banana Pro rewired image editing expectations. Why Veo 3 reset video. Why Midjourney still feels magicalWhy workflows (not models) are becoming the real creative advantage.Along the way, they spiral into mood boards, personalization hacks, node-based systems, AI video limitations, why Hollywood feels creatively bankrupt, how Grok quietly became a research weapon, and why Midjourney's next move might determine whether it stays an artist's playground or becomes a professional tool.It's opinionated. It's nerdy. It's honest. It's occasionally unhinged.And it's the clearest snapshot of where AI creativity actually stands heading into 2026.If you're trying to keep up, slow down, or figure out where to place your bets next year, this episode is your unfair advantage.---⏱️ Midjourney Fast Hour00:00 – Episode 60 kickoff and end-of-year reflections01:50 – From niche experiment to mainstream behavior04:00 – AI finally reaches non-technical families06:18 – Why working solo in AI can feel isolating09:03 – Music, creativity, and early signs of AI music adoption11:02 – How fast AI actually shipped in 202512:14 – 100+ major releases and why that number matters13:01 – The real start of image editing workflows14:46 – March 2025 was the quiet inflection point16:06 – Multi-modal chat changed prompting forever19:20 – Veo 3 and why video suddenly jumped ahead21:41 – Why Google quietly dominated 202523:00 – Why hype cycles now last 48 hours23:51 – Nano Banana Pro and precision image control26:02 – Grok as a real-time research engine27:49 – Why physics in AI video finally started working29:12 – Nodes, workflows, and why visualization matters30:26 – Why Nano Banana Pro felt like “AGI for images”31:26 – Will 2026 move even faster?32:25 – Release cadence, VC pressure, and reality checks34:03 – Images vs video: who's actually ahead36:18 – Why Grok might be the sleeper winner38:36 – Data, platforms, and why distribution matters41:28 – Consolidation and acquisitions are coming44:14 – What Midjourney must do next45:23 – Image editing as the make-or-break feature48:43 – Workflow fatigue and creative burnout52:50 – Personalization, mood boards, and creative joy56:44 – Why mood boards drove the best work of 202559:12 – Personalization profiles vs mood boards01:00:43 – Why Midjourney still feels different01:02:27 – Scale, permutations, and professional use cases01:06:36 – Resolution, editing, and real production constraints01:10:22 – Why small failures still matter01:13:00 – Hollywood, creativity, and AI backlash01:17:17 – Why creators beat platforms01:22:25 – Audio and voice as the next bottleneck01:23:55 – Constraint-driven prompting in 202601:30:14 – Looking back at January vs now01:38:23 – Final predictions and advice for 202601:42:34 – Season two wrap and sign-off

In this episode, I break down how to set yourself up for real health and fitness success in 2026. I explain why most New Year's goals fail, how to create realistic fitness and nutrition goals, and why structure, consistency, and accountability matter far more than willpower. You'll learn how to track progress properly, optimise your environment, and build habits that actually last beyond January.

As I wrap up 2025, I wanted to record an episode that goes deeper than trends (but YES, my annual trends prediction is coming up next!)— because what I'm seeing across the industry right now isn't necessarily a lack of ideas.It's a lack of foundations.BLOG for this episodeAfter a full year of interviewing indoor playground and play café owners, working through countless 1:1 sessions, and supporting owners inside Play Maker Society, the same patterns keep showing up — regardless of location, size, or years in business.Owners are busy, but still stressed.They're marketing constantly, but not converting.They're deeply involved, but exhausted.This episode brings together the seven pieces of advice I'm giving to (and getting from!) current owners right now — not based on theory or predictions, but on what I'm actively seeing work (and not work) in real businesses.These are the areas where small leaks are creating big problems — and where tightening the fundamentals can immediately change how a business feels to run in terms of quality of life for YOU, the owner.In this episode, I break down:Why what you post matters more than how often you postHow most websites and patched-together booking systems quietly lose you moneyWhy open play can't be the thing holding your business upHow recurring and high-ticket revenue change how the business feels to runWhy email is still one of the most effective tools owners aren't fully usingHow cafés, retail, and small add-ons raise spend per visit without more trafficWhat actually has to be in place for you to step out without everything breakingI also share real examples from owners I've interviewed, coached, and worked alongside — including how some have intentionally reduced owner dependency, diversified revenue, and designed businesses that work even when they're not physically present.This episode isn't about adding more to your plate. It's about tightening what's already there and focusing on the few things that actually make a difference right now.If you're heading into 2026 feeling busy but still stretched thin, this will help you get clear on where your attention really needs to go next.RESOURCES/ BUSINESSES MENTIONED:BLOG for this episodeLittle Leaf Play IGLittle Play Avenue IG(BLOG) Maximizing Cafe Profits (And Why You NEED A Cafe)Evergeen Facebook + IG Ad BasicsGoogle Ad BasicsInterview with Jayci From Tiny PlayInterview with Justine from Liv and MimisInterview with Jessalyn from The Playroom WVThe Art Factory and Party PlaceGrandma's PlayroomOTHER RESOURCES:Play Cafe Academy & Play Makers SocietyGetting Started With Your Play Cafe [YouTube Video Playlist]What's Working In The Indoor Play Industry 2025 GuideFund Your Indoor Play Business [Free Training]Indoor Play Courses & 1:1 Consulting WaitlistMichele's InstagramMichele's WebsitePlay Cafe Academy YouTube ChannelETSY Template ShopPrepare Your Indoor Playground For a RecessionPlay Cafe Academy & Play Makers SocietyQuestions and Support: Support@michelecaruana.com TOOLS & OTHER LINKS:Play Cafe Academy & Play Makers Society: http://bit.ly/3HES7fDQuestions and Support: Support@michelecaruana.com Simplify and Scale with 50% OFF WellnessLivingActive Campaign Free TrialFree Demo of Aluvii All-In-One POS

Why does the scale feel so wacky in midlife—especially when you're doing all the "right" things? If you're eating well, prioritizing protein, strength training, and trying to take care of yourself… yet the scale keeps bouncing up and down, this episode is for you. So many midlife women tell me, "Why do I keep gaining weight?" or "Why won't my menopause belly fat budge?"—and I want you to know there's more going on than willpower or effort. In this episode of The Menopause Makeover Podcast, we're talking about why weight loss is not linear in perimenopause and menopause—and why that doesn't mean your body is failing you. I walk you through the real physiology behind belly fat, hormone-driven water retention, cortisol, muscle repair, and insulin sensitivity… in plain, practical language you can actually use. We'll also talk mindset—because reacting to the scale is one of the biggest reasons women stay stuck. I'll show you how to reframe what the scale is telling you, so you can lose weight with confidence, patience, and peace. If you're ready to stop letting daily numbers derail your progress and start working with your midlife body, press play.   Save your Seat for the Beat the Belly Fat Workshop - coming your way in January! --> https://www.getyourtrimon.com/workshop   FULL BLOG + SHOW NOTES Read the full post:

In this episode, I redefine the concept of scaling in entrepreneurship and dive into how to expand your businesses efficiently while maintaining your personal well-being. I challenge the misconception that scaling equates to simply increasing employee headcount or ad spend, instead emphasizing a smarter approach focused on leveraging resources for greater output without disproportionate input.I draw a clear distinction between scaling and traditional growth and outline a strategic pathway comprising three essential stages: foundation building, optimization, and exponential expansion. By stabilizing the business and refining offers in the foundation stage, entrepreneurs can transition to increasing efficiency in sales and marketing during the optimization phase, ultimately leading to expansive growth through replicable processes.Listen to learn four key levers for effective scaling: implementing systems and automation, developing leveraged products, enhancing marketing visibility, and strategic team building. Each lever provides concrete action steps for entrepreneurs at any stage, empowering you to take immediate, actionable measures toward your scaling goals.If you want to transform your understanding of business growth and unlock the potential for smarter scaling, all while avoiding burnout, then don't miss this episode!Chapters:0:20: Introduction to Scaling0:46: Understanding the Right Mindset3:51: Defining Scaling7:38: Examples of Strategic Scaling9:28: The Three Stages of Scaling10:42: Building the Foundation12:01: The Optimization Stage13:38: Exponential Expansion14:53: Transitioning Between Stages16:09: Four Levers to Scale Your Business16:30: Systems and Automation21:07: Leveraged Products24:21: Marketing and Visibility26:43: The Role of Your Team29:11: The Scaling Action Plan41:46: Q&A SessionFREE Resources to Grow Your Online Business:The $100K Method Podcast Series: https://www.gillianperkins.com/the-100k-methodGrab our free course, Small Business 101: https://www.gillianperkins.com/small-business-101-free-opt-inWrite a Profit Plan for Your Business : http://gillianperkins.com/free-profit-plan Want to quit your job in the next 6-18 months with passive income from selling digital products online?

SpaceTime with Stuart Gary Gary - Series 28 Episode 153In this episode of SpaceTime, we dive into thrilling new missions and groundbreaking discoveries in the universe.Ramses Mission to Asteroid ApophisThe European Space Agency has greenlit an exciting new mission to study the infamous doomsday asteroid Apophis. The Ramses spacecraft will closely observe the 450-meter-wide asteroid as it makes a close flyby of Earth on April 13, 2029, at a mere 32,000 kilometers away—closer than many satellites. Initially feared to be on a collision course with Earth, further observations have since ruled out the threat of impact. However, the Ramses mission aims to understand how Earth's gravitational forces might affect Apophis during this close encounter, potentially setting the stage for future impacts. The spacecraft will deploy smaller probes to monitor changes in Apophis's orbit, rotation, and surface, providing vital data for planetary defense and insight into the evolution of asteroids.Solving the Mystery of ExistenceIn a groundbreaking study, scientists at CERN have made strides in explaining the universe's existence by observing a slight imbalance in the behavior of matter and antimatter. This charge parity (CP) violation suggests that a tiny difference favored matter over antimatter during the Big Bang, allowing the universe to evolve into its current state. The findings, based on 80,000 decays of the Lambda beauty particle, indicate a significant deviation that could reshape our understanding of the cosmos.The Largest Planetary Nursery Ever SeenAstronomers have discovered the largest planetary nursery ever observed, located in a massive protoplanetary disk around a young star. This chaotic environment, cataloged as IRAS230776707, spans an astonishing 650 billion kilometers and showcases intricate structures that hint at the complex processes of planet formation. The observations, made using NASA's Hubble Space Telescope, reveal a unique perspective on how planetary systems may develop in extreme conditions, raising new questions about the dynamics shaping these disks.www.spacetimewithstuartgary.com✍️ Episode ReferencesAstrophysical JournalNatureCERN ReportsBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/spacetime-your-guide-to-space-astronomy--2458531/support.(00:00:00) This is Space Time Series 28, Episode 153 for broadcast on 29 December 2025(00:00:47) ESA's Ramses mission to study asteroid Apophis(00:12:30) CERN's discovery of matter-antimatter imbalance(00:20:10) Astronomers observe the largest protoplanetary disk ever found(00:25:00) New insights into sleep apnea and mental health risks(00:28:30) Potential discovery of a new ancient human species

Lessons on Humanity, Technology, and Leadership from a Pioneer of Customer Experience  Shep interviews Bruce Temkin, host of Humanity at Scale: Redefining Leadership. He talks about how AI is reshaping business and why human connection remains essential for both customers and employees.  This episode of Amazing Business Radio with Shep Hyken answers the following questions and more:    What is the difference between customer experience and customer service?  Why is the concept "the customer is always right" often considered misguided?  How can companies benefit from shifting their focus from internal processes to customer-centric thinking?  What role does behavioral science play in improving customer experience?  How is artificial intelligence affecting customer service and employee roles in modern organizations?  Top Takeaways:    Customer experience isn't just a buzzword or a fancy way of saying customer service. It is not just about the moments where the customer needs help. It is about every interaction throughout the entire customer journey.  Customers are not always right, but they are always the customer. Customers sometimes have complaints or requests that don't align with the business's offerings, especially if they're not the target audience. Treat everyone with respect, even when you can't give them exactly what they want. Even when they are wrong, let them be wrong with dignity and keep the relationship open for the future as much as possible.  Behavioral science helps explain why customers act the way they do, make certain choices, and even how they respond to situations. Knowledge about how humans think and feel is just as essential as knowing how to organize teams or create new products. Understanding human behavior helps leaders make decisions that truly connect with employees and customers.  Success isn't just about financial results, but also about making life better for people inside and outside the company. Leaders who keep the well-being of employees, customers, and communities in mind make decisions that will have a positive impact on everyone.   AI is changing how work gets done, especially in customer service. AI helps humans do higher-level, creative, and caring work. AI can handle simple tasks, so humans can focus on building real relationships and solving complex problems.  Technology creates new opportunities. AI will not replace humans. It will change the type of work that humans do. Just like how the internet created tons of new jobs, AI will reshape the workplace and introduce new careers.   Plus, Shep and Bruce discuss why it is important for individuals and companies to make sure they are always moving towards their "North Star." Tune in!  Quote:   "One of the absolute misguided beliefs is that the customer is always right. They aren't. All you have to do is look at yourself in the mirror. Everyone's been a customer and not always been right when they've complained or seen a problem."  About:    Bruce Temkin is widely recognized as the "Godfather of Customer Experience," helping to shape customer and employee experience and advising leaders on how to keep people at the center of their organizational processes. He is the host of the podcast, Humanity at Scale: Redefining Leadership.    Shep Hyken is a customer service and experience expert, New York Times bestselling author, award-winning keynote speaker, and host of Amazing Business Radio.    Learn more about your ad choices.

We're in the midst of an environmental crisis, and our urban lifestyles often clash with the natural systems that support us — especially when it comes to how we manage our waste.Stopping the flow of cross-border pollution can feel like a Sisyphean task. With every effort to tackle it, more trash seems to appear. That's why addressing the pollution crisis at the border takes a multifaceted approach. It involves many different types of interventions — from trash barriers to hillside reforestation to trash collection and repurposing efforts.In this fourth and final installment of The Planetary Scale, we talk with four fronterizos who have been at the forefront of efforts to mitigate this issue and check back in with old friends from six years ago.

This is our 2025 wrap episode. If 2025 had a soundtrack, it would be pressure: pressure on systems, on people, on animals, on land.Heat. Drought. Fire. Flood. Repeating across regions and headlines.But this year we also paid attention to what doesn't always make the news. We spent time in real conversations with farmers testing new practices in their fields, scientists challenging outdated models, investors reassessing what risk really means, and builders putting regenerative ideas into practice. Online and in person, we saw regeneration moving from theory into action.As 2025 comes to a close, the picture is still complex but clearer. The evidence is growing. Regeneration works, and the path forward is becoming more defined. Tune in to listen to what 2025 inside regenerative food and agriculture taught us.More about this episode.==========================In Investing in Regenerative Agriculture and Food podcast show we talk to the pioneers in the regenerative food and agriculture space to learn more on how to put our money to work to regenerate soil, people, local communities and ecosystems while making an appropriate and fair return.

In this episode of The Distribution, Brandon Sedloff sits down with Jeff Beckham to discuss building institutional real estate platforms, generating operational alpha, and scaling founder-led investment firms. Jeff walks through his career from investment banking to global real estate investing and explains how those experiences shaped his approach as Chief Investment Officer at Buckingham. The discussion dives deep into Buckingham's focus on the living sector, vertical integration, and why discipline and process matter most in today's market environment.  They discuss: • Jeff's career path from Morgan Stanley to leading investment platforms across Europe and the US • Why Buckingham focuses exclusively on the living sector across multifamily, student housing, build-to-rent, and active adult • How vertical integration across development, construction, and property management drives operational alpha • The investment case for Midwest, Southeast, and Mountain West markets versus coastal markets • Balancing entrepreneurial deal-making with institutional processes, accountability, and scale Links: Buckingham Companies - https://buckingham.com/ Jeff on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/w-jeffrey-beckham-2ab2712/ Brandon on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/bsedloff/ Juniper Square - https://www.junipersquare.com/ Topics: (00:00:00) - Intro (00:04:54) - Jeff's career journey (00:12:20) - Joining Buckingham and real estate insights (00:19:51) - Buckingham's investment strategy (00:28:45) - The appeal of build-to-rent (BTR) housing (00:29:43) - Investment strategies in the living sector (00:31:18) - Challenges and opportunities in the living sector (00:35:47) - Operational focus and deal sourcing (00:38:57) - Role and responsibilities of a CIO (00:44:09) - Building systems for future growth (00:46:37) - Balancing immediate and long-term goals (00:52:29) - Excitement for future opportunities (00:53:55) - Conclusion and contact information

Cheap real estate appears to be an easy win. Lower prices, lower risk, faster cash flow. That assumption gets a lot of investors into trouble. In this episode of Test. Optimize. Scale, Stewart Beal breaks down why low-priced properties often create the biggest headaches and how early mistakes with tenants, credit quality, and location can quietly destroy returns. Stewart shares the real story behind his first five unit property, the lesson a single tenant taught him about risk, and how that experience reshaped the way he evaluates deals today. We also dive into how Stewart scaled from a teenage entrepreneur to managing thousands of residential and commercial units across Michigan, what he looks for in value add opportunities, and why who manages the property matters more than the purchase price. If you are thinking about investing in real estate, partnering with operators, or scaling a portfolio, this conversation will challenge some popular assumptions. About the guest: Stewart Beal has been active in real estate and construction for over 15 years. He founded Beal Properties in 2001 after purchasing his first five-unit apartment building at age 19. Today, he manages more than 3,100 apartments, single-family homes, and office spaces across 27 cities. He holds a degree in Business Management from Eastern Michigan University and was recognized by Crain's Detroit Business in their 20 in Their 20s feature.

In this episode of Marketer of the Day, Kelly O'Neil returns to join Robert Plank and share her vision for entrepreneurial transformation in today's ever-changing economic landscape. Kelly details the limitations of outdated business models and the urgent need for a new, harmonized approach that goes beyond tactics to focus on purpose, intuition, and strategic clarity. She reveals the importance of recognizing misalignment, architecting a business around personal genius and evolving desires, and why strategy must precede tools and tactics. Listeners will learn how Kelly guides clients through deeply personalized business realignment, helping high-performing leaders redesign their companies for lasting profit, freedom, and fulfillment.

1. Welfare System Fraud and Structural Issues Based on an op-ed by Phil Gramm and John Early in The Wall Street Journal titled “The Biggest Fraud in Welfare”. Key points: U.S. welfare spending has skyrocketed 765% since the mid-1970s, now totaling $1.4 trillion annually. If distributed evenly among the 19.8 million families classified as poor, each would receive $71,000 per year. The government fails to count non-cash benefits (Medicaid, housing subsidies, food stamps) as income, creating a distorted picture of poverty. Example: A single parent earning $11,000 annually can receive benefits worth $53,128, bringing total resources to $64,128, well above the poverty threshold. Criticism of the system: It traps people in dependency instead of promoting self-sufficiency, contrasting with Trump-era welfare reform that moved 7 million people off food stamps into the workforce. 2. Massive Fraud in Minnesota’s Medicaid and Welfare Programs Federal prosecutors allege up to $9 billion in fraud since 2018, possibly 50% of the $18 billion spent on 14 programs. Fraud described as “industrial scale”, involving fake companies and individuals exploiting housing and autism assistance programs. Some funds allegedly funneled to Al Shabab, a Somali terrorist organization. Criticism of Minnesota’s Democratic leadership for lack of oversight and alleged vote-buying incentives. Prediction: Similar fraud likely exists in California, New York, and Illinois. Media accused of downplaying the scandal; local CBS reports highlighted the severity. 3. Strong U.S. Economic Performance Under Trump Latest GDP report shows 4.3% growth in Q3, the strongest in two years, beating expectations of 3.2%. Growth driven by consumer spending, healthcare, tech, and AI-related investments. Inflation reportedly down to 1.6%, signaling economic stability. Commentary contrasts media narratives predicting economic collapse with reality of strong holiday spending and trade policy success. Trump’s supply-side policies (tax cuts, deregulation) and trade strategies credited for economic boom. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.
