With many changes to the new tax code, scammers are expected to flood consumers with phony messages this tax season. Jordan Wright with the Better Business Bureau's Tip-Off to the Rip-Off® on WBBM Newsradio has the scoop.

A conversation with Pinkbike alum Daniel Sapp, who now handles the day-to-day operations for Seth's Bike Hacks and Berm Peak.

This week, hosts⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Dave Bittner⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠,⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Joe Carrigan⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, and Maria Varmazis⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ (also host of the ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠T-Minus⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Space Daily show) are sharing the latest in social engineering scams, phishing schemes, and criminal exploits that are making headlines. Joe share's another chicken update for us, this time from Werner Herzog. Dave's got a story from a listener named Tim, an IRS Criminal Investigation agent, who explains that real CI agents may contact people unannounced and can verify themselves in person, but if anyone asks for gift cards or crypto, it's definitely a scam. Maria has the story on how attackers are abusing real SendGrid accounts to send politically charged phishing emails that look legitimate and trick users into handing over their credentials. Joe has two stories this week, the first on Cambodia's renewed crackdown on massive Southeast Asian scam networks following the arrest and extradition of alleged kingpin Chen Zhi, signaling deeper international cooperation against fraud operations that have stolen billions worldwide, and the second on a Nashville Uber driver who lost $300 after falling for a convincing phone scam that impersonated Uber Support and falsely accused him of drunk driving. Our catch of the day comes from Reddit scams where one scammer gets put through the ringer, twice. Resources and links to stories: Cambodia to keep up crackdown on scam centres after arrest of alleged mastermind Uber driver describes drunk driving scam that cost him $300 SendGrid isn't emailing you about ICE or BLM.

In this episode, Tamara and Classy dive deep into their buddy read of 'The Scammer' by Tiffany D. Jackson. They examine the intricacies of the narrative, character dynamics, and the psychological manipulation that pervade the story. The discussion also touches on real-life inspirations behind the book, the role of community in college life, and the implications of the white savior trope. Throughout the conversation, they express their frustrations with the characters and the plot twists, ultimately questioning the believability of the narrative in the context of an HBCU setting.Ep 558Pick up a copy of today's book, The ScammerFind all the essential links in one spot and follow Tamara!Connect with Tamara on social media:Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/shelfaddiction/TikTok | @shelfaddictionConnect with Classy on social media:Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/thebookishvirtualassistantTikTok | @classygreen1Join the SAO book club on BookClubs: https://bookclubs.com/shelf-addiction-book-club/join/Check out our sponsors and deals!

Fear doesn't exist in the present moment — it lives in memory and anticipation. In this episode, I break down how time itself functions as a control structure in the Matrix, and why fear needs past and future to survive. When you're pulled out of presence, fear gains leverage. When you stay here, it loses its grip.We explore how nervous system regulation isn't about avoiding fear or calming yourself down, but about staying present inside activation. Presence stabilizes the nervous system, and a regulated nervous system dissolves fear — not by suppressing it, but by removing the time-based stories that keep it alive. This isn't about bypassing reality. It's about learning how to remain present so fear has nowhere left to operate.You are loved.

Donate (no account necessary) | Subscribe (account required) Join Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA Operations Officer, as he dives into today's top stories shaping America and the world. In this Friday Radar Brief of The Wright Report, Bryan delivers quick but critical headlines to watch heading into the weekend, from violent unrest in Minnesota to improving economic signals and new risks tied to artificial intelligence. Minnesota Riots and the Insurrection Act: President Trump warns he may invoke the Insurrection Act after left-wing riots erupt in Minneapolis, fueled by rhetoric from Governor Tim Walz and Mayor Jacob Frey targeting ICE officers. Protesters stole firearms from an FBI vehicle, raising alarms about escalating violence and state-level defiance of federal authority. Democrats Push to Abolish ICE: Michigan Representative Shri Thanedar introduces new legislation to abolish ICE, joining a growing majority of Democrats openly calling for the end of deportations. Bryan argues the bill signals a revolutionary shift in immigration policy, even if it fails in the current Congress. U.S. Seizes More Oil Tankers: U.S. forces capture a sixth ghost-fleet tanker carrying Venezuelan, Russian, and Iranian oil. Bryan explains how the strategy squeezes Moscow, Tehran, and Beijing while potentially impacting global oil prices and American consumers. Economic Updates Worth Watching: Mortgage rates hit a three-year low near 6 percent, inflation continues to cool, and consumer sentiment improves. Hiring remains weak, but falling rents, rising wages, and lower prices offer signs of relief heading into 2026. AI Risks Expand: Workers are increasingly being paid to train AI systems that may ultimately replace them. Bryan also warns of a surge in AI-driven scams, including fake videos and emails impersonating pastors and religious leaders. Unexpected Medical and Market News: GLP-1 weight-loss drugs may lower airline fuel costs as passengers weigh less, offering a surprising boost to airline profits.   "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32     Keywords: January 16 2026 Wright Report, Minnesota riots Insurrection Act, Tim Walz ICE rhetoric, abolish ICE bill Thanedar, ghost fleet oil tanker seizure, mortgage rates three-year low, inflation cooling economy, AI job displacement training, AI scams fake pastors, GLP-1 drugs airline fuel savings

Joe starts us off with a chicken update. Joe's story is on CrowdStrike's 2025 Global Threat Report, which reveals faster-than-ever breakout times, a surge in vishing and initial access attacks, widespread abuse of valid accounts, and a growing shift toward malware-free intrusions as adversaries become more numerous and sophisticated. Dave's got the story on how “pig-butchering” romance scams are industrialized, detailing Reuters' reporting on cyberfraud gangs using step-by-step psychological playbooks to groom victims, manufacture emotional attachment, and rapidly funnel them into fake investments that leave lasting financial and emotional damage. Rishika Desai, Threat Researcher and Writer from Bfore.ai, joins Dave and Joe to discuss renting social media ad accounts for scamming purposes. Our catch of the day comes from Reddit, where one user channels their inner Jedi and uses the Force to send a pesky scammer retreating to the dark side.

It's the portal of awakening 1.11.For years we've been told Earth is a “school.” That suffering is growth. That reincarnation is just part of the lesson plan.But what if that story only works if you don't know there's another option?In this episode, I unpack why—after years of research, direct astral experiences, and channeled insight that *predated* my exposure to Gnosticism—I no longer see Earth as a classroom, or reincarnation as an automatic loop we're meant to accept.We'll talk about:* What **gnosis** actually is (and why it's not belief)* The Gnostic and Eastern view of **samsara**—and why it only functions as a trap when there's ignorance* How reincarnation keeps consciousness cycling *until* recognition occurs* Why distraction, emotional overwhelm, and identity fixation keep people from seeing the “door”* How awakening doesn't break the system—it reveals the exit* And why “New Earth” may not be new at all, but simply reality without the veil.This isn't about fear.It's about awareness.And awareness changes everything.Work with me, your host,  here: Thelovelyalea.comOrder MEANINGFUL MANIFESTATION thelovelyalea.com/bookGet spiritual 1-on-1 Coaching thelovelyalea.com/servicesFollow me on Instagram instagram.com/thelovelyalea ( Remember I will never DM you for readings - watch out for Scammers ! )

Is freight fraud really just "part of doing business" now, or are we finally at a breaking point? And what happens when organized crime syndicates start treating the freight industry like a cash machine? Listen to John Cantera of Freight Fraud Task Force Inc. in this conversation sharing how freight fraud has evolved from basic double brokering into full-blown cargo theft fueled by international and domestic criminal networks, why broker apathy, cost-driven booking decisions, and inconsistent vetting are putting legitimate carriers at serious risk, and how rising insurance costs and market pressure are squeezing the wrong players out. John also explains how education, intelligence sharing, audits, and financial enforcement are becoming the industry's best defense as FMCSA resources lag, the potential FMCSA reforms, the idea of universal carrier and CDL recertification, and why proactive fraud prevention isn't optional anymore if brokers, carriers, and shippers want to survive the next market cycle and restore trust across the supply chain!   About John Cantera, Jr. Managing Director and Fraud Prevention Consultant - Vigilant Transportation Services Co-Founder and Vice Chairman - Freight Fraud Task Force Inc.

2025 wasn't a punishment year — it was a preparation year.In this episode of Spiritual Shit, I break down why so many people felt cracked open, exhausted, and stripped of old identities in 2025 — and why that breakdown was necessary for what comes next.This year forced a shedding: people-pleasing, fear of being judged, silencing yourself to belong, and waiting for permission to speak. Not because you were doing it wrong — but because the version of you that hides can't carry the light you're meant to bring forward.We talk about:Why fear of being seen is the biggest block to intuitionHow your external voice and inner voice are directly connectedWhy intuition doesn't get louder when you think more — but when you express moreHow losing approval rewires self-trustWhy the people who struggled most in 2025 are often the ones meant to lead, create, speak, and illuminate nextThis episode is for anyone who feels like they've stopped caring what others think — not because they're numb, but because something truer is finally emerging.Work with me, your host,  here: Thelovelyalea.comOrder MEANINGFUL MANIFESTATION thelovelyalea.com/bookGet spiritual 1-on-1 Coaching thelovelyalea.com/servicesFollow me on Instagram instagram.com/thelovelyalea ( Remember I will never DM you for readings - watch out for Scammers ! )
