In this episode of The Breakdown, host NLW explores legendary investor Ray Dalio's recent update on the shifting global monetary order. Dalio asserts that the U.S. is nearing a significant decline due to unsustainable economic fundamentals, and nations are now actively reducing their dependence on the U.S. dollar. NLW discusses Dalio's vision for a cooperative, negotiated global financial realignment rather than a chaotic collapse, highlighting the potential roles of Bitcoin, stablecoins, and digital assets within this transition. The episode concludes with a comprehensive overview of how key countries—including the U.S., Canada, Russia, the UK, and South Korea—are shaping their crypto policies in response to these global changes, underscoring digital assets' increasing influence in international economic strategies.

Frontier: A Memoir and a Ghost Story (Barrelhouse Inc., 2025) is a genre-bending expedition into childbirth. Seamlessly blending memoir, fiction, and research into the fraught history of birth—from midwives to Victorian-era sedation through the Natural Childbirth Movement and modern L&D suites—Frontier lays bare visceral truths that are too often glossed over, and offers an incisive look at the momentous and terrifying transformations of motherhood. As she prepared to give birth to her first child, Erica Stern envisioned the idyllic experience promised by prenatal classes and diaper commercials. But when unexpected complications arose during labor, she found herself at the threshold of life and death, a liminal space that connected her to generations of mothers before her. From the chaos of the delivery room, Frontier opens into a parallel narrative: a Wild West ghost story. There, a mother who didn't survive the ordeal of childbirth roams her old homestead, tethered to the family she left behind. In this otherworldly hybrid memoir, Stern careens between this haunted past and the present horror of the hospital as she waits for her own son to wake up in the NICU. Erica Stern's work has been published in The Iowa Review, Mississippi Review, Denver Quarterly, and elsewhere. She has received support for her writing from the Vermont Studio Center and the Virginia Center for Creative Arts. A New Orleans native, she lives with her family in Evanston, Illinois.

On this week's show we discuss whether physical media is making a comeback and could a Bezel-less OLED be the future of large format TVs. We also read your emails and take a look at the week's news. News: Google kills off Nest Protect, partners with First Alert for new smart smoke detector Christie to collaborate with Dolby to develop the next generation of Dolby Vision laser projection systems YouTube Sees Record Viewing, Beats Disney in TV Viewing Share Other: 2025 Box-Office Aims To Hit $34 Billion Physical media is finally making a comeback, and here's the proof Despite a decline in overall physical media sales, which dipped below $1 billion in 2024, there are signs of resilience and growth in specific sectors. Major retailers like Best Buy and Target are phasing out physical media, but Sony's announcement of a new Blu-ray player, the UBP-X700/K, set for release in 2025, signals continued investment in the format. This player, while currently only available in Japan, supports 4K Blu-rays, which are region-free and growing in market share despite the higher cost compared to its predecessor. There is a niche but dedicated community keeping physical media alive, supported by boutique retailers like Criterion Collection and Arrow, which preserve films such as David Lynch's catalog, including the upcoming 4K release of Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me. Mainstream releases still often get physical versions, and affordable options abound online and in thrift stores, offering DVDs, Blu-rays, and 4K discs compatible with modern players. There are personal advantages of physical ownership, like better quality and reliability compared to streaming, which can be plagued by shifting availability and rising costs. While consoles may soon abandon disc drives and companies like LG have discontinued Blu-ray players, the 4K Blu-ray market is a bright spot, with growing demand evidenced by the sell-out of Oppenheimer's 4K release in 2023. The new Sony player supports Dolby Vision (though it requires manual toggling), enhancing the viewing experience over consoles like Xbox or PS5. The article concludes that 2025 is an opportune time to embrace physical media, especially for those frustrated with streaming, as it offers a tangible, cost-effective alternative with no risk of content disappearing—though it comes with minor inconveniences like disc-swapping for TV binges. The future remains uncertain, but the 4K sector offers hope for collectors. Full article here… Bezel-less tile OLED TVs could be the future of large-screen displays (from Tom's Guide) Samsung Display showcased a variety of innovative display technologies at MWC 2025, with a standout being their "bezel-less" OLED tile design. This concept involves combining smaller OLED panels, such as two 31.5-inch QD-OLED screens, to form larger displays with significantly reduced bezels—40% narrower than typical current market offerings. This makes the seams nearly invisible from a standard viewing distance, opening up possibilities for future OLED TV designs. The bezel-less OLED tiles could revolutionize large-screen TVs by improving portability and setup logistics. Unlike traditional massive TVs (e.g., 98- or 110-inch models), which are cumbersome and costly to ship and install, these tiles could be transported and assembled in smaller, manageable parts—ideal for urban dwellers in older buildings with limited access. Additionally, the design might simplify wall-mounting, potentially eliminating the need for complex mounts by allowing the tiles to sit flush against walls, reminiscent of concepts like Displace TV's suction-cup OLEDs. This technology could particularly enhance lifestyle TVs, such as Samsung's The Frame, by offering a sleek, frameless look that blends seamlessly into home decor. However, challenges remain—similar to MicroLED, the intricate engineering might make these TVs prohibitively expensive initially. While not yet ready for consumers, Samsung Display's tile concept hints at an exciting future for bigger, better, and more practical OLED TVs. Full article here… Let's Discuss Why This is a Good Thing: Easier Transport and Setup for Large TVs Simplified Wall-Mounting Enhanced Design for Lifestyle TVs Scalability and Customization Improved Visual Experience Easier Transport and Setup for Large TVs The tiled OLED concept tackles the logistical nightmare of moving and installing massive TVs. By breaking a large display (like a 115-inch screen) into smaller, manageable pieces (e.g., two 31.5-inch QD-OLED panels), it becomes far more practical to transport and assemble. This is a game-changer for people in tricky living situations—like those in high-rise apartments with no elevators or tight staircases—where hauling a giant, crated TV is a non-starter. Instead of wrestling with one unwieldy unit, you'd handle smaller components, making setup less of a Herculean task. Simplified Wall-Mounting The ultra-thin, virtually bezel-less design hints at a future where wall-mounting could be a breeze. These tiles seem to sit flush against surfaces, potentially reducing or even eliminating the need for bulky wall mounts and toolkits. While it's not clear if they'd use something like suction cups (à la Displace TV) or another method, the streamlined look suggests a setup that's less about drilling and more about placement. This could make mounting a TV—especially over a fireplace or in tight spaces—more accessible and less intimidating. Enhanced Design for Lifestyle TVs The bezel-less tile concept aligns perfectly with the aesthetic goals of lifestyle TVs, like Samsung's The Frame. A flush, frameless display could elevate the “TV as art” vibe, blending seamlessly into home decor. You could even add a custom frame around the tiles if desired, keeping the versatility intact. This design flexibility could redefine how TVs integrate into living spaces, making them less of an obtrusive tech piece and more of a stylish feature. Scalability and Customization Tiling smaller OLED panels to create a larger screen opens up possibilities for scalable TV sizes. Want a 65-inch TV today but a 98-inch tomorrow? In theory, you could add more tiles. While this might not be fully practical yet, the modular nature suggests a future where screen size isn't fixed at purchase, offering a level of adaptability that current TVs lack. Improved Visual Experience Shrinking bezels by 40% compared to standard displays means the seams between tiles are nearly invisible at normal viewing distances. This creates a more immersive, uninterrupted picture—crucial for OLED's strengths like deep blacks and vibrant colors. It's a step toward making massive OLED screens feel cohesive rather than patchwork, enhancing the viewing experience for movies, gaming, or VR applications. It's Not All Good News: Cost and Accessibility Manufacturing and Durability Challenges Installation Complexity Wall-Mounting Uncertainties Potential Visual Trade-Offs Cost and Accessibility Complex engineering often leads to high costs. Much like MicroLED TVs, which are expensive due to their manufacturing processes, these bezel-less OLED tiles could follow a similar path. If they hit the market, they might be priced out of reach for the average consumer. Manufacturing and Durability Challenges Shrinking bezels by 40% and tiling multiple panels together sounds impressive, but it raises questions about production complexity and long-term durability. Seamlessly connecting 31.5-inch QD-OLED panels could introduce weak points where the tiles meet, potentially leading to issues like uneven wear, panel misalignment over time, or vulnerability to damage during transport or installation. The "bezel-less" claim might also exaggerate real-world performance if micro-gaps or seams remain faintly visible up close. Installation Complexity While the concept promises to simplify transporting and setting up XXL TVs by breaking them into smaller components, the assembly process could still be a hurdle. Consumers might need precise instructions—or even professional help—to align and connect the tiles perfectly. If the panels don't lock together intuitively or require specialized tools, the setup could negate some of the portability benefits, especially for less tech-savvy users. Wall-Mounting Uncertainties The idea of tiles sitting flush against the wall (possibly without traditional mounts) is appealing, but it's unclear how practical this would be. If Samsung Display isn't using suction cups like Displace TV, the attachment method remains a mystery. Adhesive solutions could damage walls or lose strength over time, while a lack of standard mounting hardware might make the TVs harder to secure safely, especially in homes with kids or pets. The "glued-on" aesthetic might also limit repositioning or removal flexibility. Potential Visual Trade-Offs Tiling multiple OLED panels could introduce subtle visual inconsistencies, such as slight color or brightness variations between tiles, especially as they age. While the bezels are minimized, any imperfections in alignment or panel uniformity might become noticeable during close viewing or in scenes with solid colors, detracting from the premium OLED experience consumers expect.

From a biological perspective, there's a limited window for getting pregnant, spanning from reproductive age through menopause. While that offers many years of opportunity, there's never a perfect time to have a baby. You might find yourself expecting earlier than planned, or life may lead you to parenthood later than you imagined. Whether you're in your 20s, 30s, or 40s, age can influence many aspects of pregnancy, like fertility, potential risks, and even emotional or financial readiness. Many women feel pressure to have children before their 35th birthday. This idea stems from classifying pregnancy at 35 or older as “advanced maternal age.” Although this label is based on increased statistical risks, this high-risk label can create unnecessary anxiety. Especially considering most pregnancies in this age group are healthy and uncomplicated. There are also real advantages to becoming a parent in your mid-thirties or beyond. In this episode, we'll explore how pregnancy experiences can vary across ages, what the evidence says about the risks of advanced maternal age, and how you can make confident, informed choices no matter where you are on your journey to parenthood.

As coaches, our central goal is to help our clients—this is the work we love, and to go even further, it's who we are as people. There are a few key things you can do as a highly skilled coach to truly prioritize your clients, and they are all connected to the holistic approach to coaching.In this episode, Brain Berneman offers great insight into understanding the integration of the work we do and the holistic nature of coaching. We talked in-depth about what that means—for you and your clients--and how to figure out what skills you need to be able to really help the people you work with so you don't miss the bigger picture of them as a whole person. The holistic approach to coaching accounts for the whole personMany clients seek coaching to improve one specific area of their life–whether it's business, relationships, or personal development. However, often what they seek improvement with externally is connected to deeper internal aspects. Mental, emotional, and physical factors all play a role in shaping our experiences, and true progress comes when these elements are integrated. Skilled coaches can use one of these areas as an entry point, and then go deeper into a client's past experiences or nervous system responses to account for what is going on with the whole person. We need to offer this holistic perspective in order to guide those that we are supporting.A holistic view creates the best environment for your clientCreating a safe and inviting environment for our clients is something that highly skilled coaches know is essential to growth. This holistic approach is what truly leads our clients to feel cared for and know that we have their best interests at heart. Embrace and practice holistic and integrative coachingCoaching is not just about surface-level strategies—it's about integrating all aspects of life to bring lasting change. By embracing a holistic approach, expanding knowledge, collaborating with other professionals, and continuously working on personal growth, coaches can provide the highest level of support for our clients. Our clients need a skilled coach who looks beyond the obvious and is willing to explore the full picture of what's holding them back. So keep learning, stay open to collaboration, and walk the path yourself so you can guide others more effectively. Holistic coaching is truly a journey of integration, connection, and transformation.You can read the full show notes here.About Brian Berneman Brian Berneman is a beacon in the realm of conscious living, merging his foundational expertise in neuroscience with over 15 years of holistic wellness practice.
