People who live the longest aren't always the ones with the “perfect” body weight. In fact, research suggests that being slightly overweight can actually increase your life expectancy. It sounds counterintuitive, but the science may surprise you. Listen as I explain what's really going on. https://healthland.time.com/2013/01/02/being-overweight-is-linked-to-lower-risk-of-mortality/ Ever since the dawn of the Internet, we've been told to guard against hackers — but today's biggest threat isn't hacking, it's scamming. Cybercriminals are more cunning than ever, tricking millions into giving up money and information every day. If you think you are too clever to be taken by cyber-scammers, think again. Eric O'Neill — former FBI undercover operative, national security attorney, and cybersecurity strategist — reveals how modern scams work and how to stop them before they get to you. He's the author of Spies, Lies, and Cybercrime: Cybersecurity Tactics to Outsmart Hackers and Disarm Scammers (https://amzn.to/4nRvvv1). Imagine medicine without X-rays, CT scans, or MRIs. It's impossible — these imaging breakthroughs revolutionized how doctors diagnose and treat disease. Yet not long ago, the idea of seeing inside the body without a single incision was pure fantasy. Dr. Daniel K. Sodickson, chief of innovation in radiology at NYU Grossman School of Medicine and author of The Future of Seeing: How Imaging Is Changing Our World (https://amzn.to/3KNz3zS), shares the fascinating story of how imaging transformed modern medicine — and what's coming next. Sarcasm might seem like just a clever way to joke around but it's actually good exercise for your brain. Using and understanding sarcasm requires multiple parts of your mind to work together. Listen as I explain why being sarcastic might make you sharper. https://www.hbs.edu/faculty/Pages/item.aspx?num=49283&utm Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Americans lost a record $16 billion to scams in 2024—nearly 40% from investment fraud alone. The trend is moving in the wrong direction.  In this episode, I share the story of a small-town financial advisor who built trust over decades, until that trust unraveled into one of the most devastating scams they'd ever seen. More importantly, I break down 8 red flags that experts say could indicate you're being conned. Because here's the truth: falling for a scam doesn't mean you're careless or foolish—it means you're human. And understanding the psychology behind deception is the best way to protect yourself. If you think you're immune, that confidence might be exactly what scammers are counting on. *** SCHEDULE A (FREE) RETIREMENT STRATEGY MEETING: My team and I have guided hundreds of families across the U.S. through retirement's biggest challenges over the last two decades.

They may go by different names—psychics, healers, spiritual guides—but the con is always the same: taking people's money by promising the impossible. Today on The Protectors Podcast, Mike and Mark welcome Audrey Moy to the conference studio at the 2025 IAFCI Convention in Oklahoma City. Audrey is a retired investigator who now volunteers with AARP to protect elders from fraud. She's here to warn us about the “blessing scam,” a cruel twist on the same tricks behind psychic cons—fake healers exploiting fear for profit—this time targeting people in the Asian community. Audrey shares the red flags to watch for, how to stay safe, and what victims should know.

Canadians lost a whopping $647 million to fraud last year. Most scams involve money taken from your bank accounts or investments. But few victims of fraud get their money back from the bank. Sarah Bradley, Canada's Ombudsman for Banking Services and Investments, explains what the rules are, what your rights are, what to do if you've been scammed — and how not to get scammed in the first place.

On this episode of The Team Chip Podcast, Chip and Glyn Ann Townsend share the story of almost getting scammed and the leadership lessons that came out of it. From the frustration of paying for work that never got done, to tracking the guy down and making sure he followed through, this experience became a powerful reminder about trust, accountability, and integrity. Chip and Glyn Ann break down what school owners can learn: put systems in place, hold people accountable, and lead by example. Because real leadership isn't about avoiding problems, it's about handling them the right way.

Canadians lost a staggering $647 million to fraud last year. And a lot of those scams involve money taken fraudulently from Canadians' bank accounts and investments.

Then we talk to technology journalist and analyst Carmi Levy who says banks can do more to protect your money — and to reimburse you if you've been scammed.

Today, Paul shares a video from someone who was courted to a steak dinner, fed incomplete information, and then sold a product they didn't fully understand. In most industries, this would be viewed as a scam or at least fraudulent, but in the investing industry, this is completely normal. Listen along as Paul explains that offering you a bribe, trying to “reeducate” you, and then manipulating you to make money is not his idea of good financial education or planning.   Want to cut through the myths about retirement income and learn evidence-based strategies backed by over a century of data?

LightSpeed VT: https://www.lightspeedvt.com/ Dropping Bombs Podcast: https://www.droppingbombs.com/ In this no-BS episode of Dropping Bombs, I sit down with Bronx-born builder and battle-tested entrepreneur Brian Abbey, a man whose life story reads like a blueprint for grit, failure, and redemption. From emancipating himself at 15 and becoming a father at 18, to scaling a general contracting company to $48M before losing it all in one signature — Brian brings the raw truth behind success, loss, and ultimate ownership.   Brad and Brian dig into what really went wrong, the hard lesson in fractional lending, and why personal accountability is the key to rebuilding stronger. They also unpack Brian's book “You Are the Choices You Make”, his take on modern construction management, and why most general contractors are doing it all wrong. If you're an entrepreneur, builder, or someone who's been knocked down and needs a playbook for getting back up — this one's for you.

This week's follow-up brings two gems: a smart tip from a listener on handling suspicious “bank calls” by asking the caller to leave a note on your account, then verifying directly with your bank. Plus, a delightful story about “Chicken Camp,” where trainers hone their skills by teaching chickens tricks—proof that maybe one day a chicken-driven tractor isn't such a far-fetched idea! Joe's story is on YouTube scam-baiters who helped expose a $65 million fraud ring that preyed on vulnerable victims, including a Holocaust survivor's widow. Maria's got the story of how agentic AI browsers, designed to shop and click for you, proved alarmingly easy to trick into scams and phishing schemes—ushering in a new era of “Scamlexity.” Dave's story covers a growing luggage tag scam where discarded tags give scammers enough personal info to file false baggage claims against travelers. The catch of the day comes from listener Chad, who spotted a suspicious message likely aiming to hijack his Facebook account—but wisely didn't take the bait.

Russian soldiers were told that they would be the country's 'new elite' by President Putin. But many of them have reported being robbed and scammed out of the money that they earned fighting on the Ukrainian front lines. They also face mental health problems, and post-traumatic stress disorder after months or years at war, but suitable treatment is scarce and hard for them to find. BBC Russian's Sergei Goryashko has been looking into the soldiers who have been robbed and scammed, whilst Sofya Volyanova has spoken to the people in Russia attempting to treat soldiers for PTSD and depression. South Korea banned dog meat in the country last year, and the practice will be entirely phased out by 2027 ending a generations long practice. Hyunjung Kim of BBC Korean has been speaking to people affected by the ban and explains why it got put in place. This episode of The Documentary comes to you from The Fifth Floor, the show at the heart of global storytelling, with BBC journalists from all around the world.
