Andy Roddick is back on Served to break down a loaded week of tennis news. Carlos Alcaraz sets social media on fire with full-speed hitting videos ahead of his US Open and Cincinnati title defense. The guys react to Taylor Fritz taking the Washington title over Rafa Jodar, Alexandra Eala's breakout run as the first Filipino to win a WTA singles title, and whether she's officially a top-ten threat? Plus: the ITIA's four-year suspension of 2023 Wimbledon Champion Markéta Vondrousova is confirmed — Andy digs into the ruling, the missed-test protocols every player should know, and why his early sympathy shifted. The crew also covers Cruz Hewitt following in Lleyton's footsteps, Emma Raducanu ruled out of the US Open with a stress fracture, Venus and Serena Williams landing a Cincinnati doubles wildcard, and Novak Djokovic's radical scoring idea.

The day Christine Wells-Wonsley laid her eighteen-year-old son Nolan to rest, her legal team was already moving. Ten-page preservation-of-evidence letters went out to Nolan's friends, their families, the Jackson County Sheriff's Office, the district attorney, the coroner, and the Mississippi State Medical Examiner. Every institution and individual in the chain received the same message: litigation is anticipated, and nothing gets deleted.Nolan Wells went to a July 4 boat party on Horn Island with friends and never came home. His body was found two days later by a park ranger. The sheriff concluded no foul play before the autopsy results, the toxicology, or the FBI's digital evidence review were complete. The DA then sealed the official autopsy behind a grand jury she hasn't scheduled.His mother wasn't going to wait for that process to play out. She got Nolan's phone back from his friends and found both Snapchat accounts empty. She compared Life360 and Snapchat location data and found they didn't match. On July 29, she filed court-ordered subpoenas against five major tech platforms — demanding GPS data, login histories, messages, and password reset records. Twenty-one days to produce everything.The family is building a parallel investigation alongside the criminal one, and the preservation letters ensure nobody in the official chain can claim their records were lost.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Arthur Herman recounts the historic 1896 meeting where Henry Ford pitched his internal combustion engine to a skeptical Thomas Edison. Edison's encouragement served as the catalyst for Ford's revolution in American transportation. This industrial transformation was further enabled by John D. Rockefeller, whose ability to lower oil prices made gasoline an economically feasible fuel for mass production. The segment also highlights George Washington's vision for a professional Continental Army. (9)1910

Happy Persistence is not about winning at any cost, It's about keeping and working towards a clear goal, One that you constantly reassess, so you don't get lost, In some stubborn attempt to fill some unfillable hole.   [full text below] Ep. 465 - Happy Persistence We begin as always with the Happy Creed. We Believe in Happy, in Balance and Growth, of being Mindful and Grateful,  Compassionate and Understanding. Yowza Haha My Happy Friends! Today marks the anniversary of my decision to become a writer, It was when I was eighteen, and I thought of a shining story, But knew I would first need to live a full life to make it brighter, And now I'm as old as I guessed I'd need to be for such glory.  Never giving up and not taking “no” for an answer has its time and place, But it can also backfire, so, while you can be tenacious, also be wise, I have been known to be wildly dogged in my pursuit of a pretty face, Only to discover that going by looks alone rarely results in a worthy prize.  Served me right, of course, putting value on something so shallow as looks, And so I don't do that anymore, but let a person's attractiveness slowly build, I get to know them and their story, looking deep past the cover of their books, And as their allure grows, I go from being merely interested to fully thrilled. And, yes, there's a persistence at play there as well, but of a more patient sort, There are many flavors and intensities of persistence, of course, and I've tried many, More than once I have engaged in debates with corporations almost as a sport, One was for a ticket exchange, and another was for a gift card—and I got every penny. It took 40 emails and three weeks for the ticket, 50 emails and six weeks for the card, I was never rude, never cruel, never petty—I simply never relented, until they blinked, And then I was gracious, grateful, and gone, for I'd already pushed them way too hard, I wasn't there to gloat, I was just glad it had all worked out before we both went extinct. I find myself in another situation where patient persistence could serve me well, I'm trying to help a vendor see the benefits of becoming licensed to use our brand, I work for a state university and so the red tape is extensive to allow them to sell Items with our logo, but the opportunities it could unlock for them are simply grand. We earn no money from the process, we simply wish to buy their branded stuff, But they question the process and wonder if the expense will be worth it, I can't promise them future orders, but the current one should be more than enough, So I'll keep trying to convince them of the value of it all, because I'm not one to quit. Happy Persistence is not about winning at any cost, It's about keeping and working towards a clear goal, One that you constantly reassess, so you don't get lost, In some stubborn attempt to fill some unfillable hole.   Haha Yowza

Moreover, the conversation takes a critical look at media responsibility. Glenn passionately argues against the tendency of corporate media to present both sides of an issue, especially when one side is based on lies.

Send us Fan MailSummer Rewind: we are re releasing one of our most unforgettable listener stories while we travel through Europe, and this one still stops people in their tracks.In 2005, guest Ben took out $175,000 in private student loans that never paid for a single class and handed all of it to his charismatic younger brother, who promised overnight millions from a chain of restaurants. The businesses were never real. Six months into his marriage with Beth, the couple was served with a lawsuit. That original amount had compounded into $310,000 of debt.Beth and Ben join us to share how they discovered the fraud, survived a wave of lawsuits and depositions, and made the decision to stay together and pay back every dollar. Over ten and a half years of side hustles, coupon clipping, and deliberate spending, they cleared the entire balance and rebuilt their finances and their relationship.Along the way we cover why loaning money to family needs documentation and hard questions, how compound interest turns a bad decision into a crisis, what happens legally when a spouse is named in a lawsuit, and the four questions everyone should ask before making any investment. We also talk about why couples need to have honest money conversations before marriage, not after.This is a story about betrayal, grit, and financial recovery, and a practical reminder that if it sounds too good to be true, it is.Subscribe to The Sugar Daddy Podcast for new episodes every Wednesday, and share this one with anyone who has ever been asked to invest in someone else's big idea.Get a $5 month for Point.Me our favorite way to find the best flightsGet 50% off of Monarch Money for one year with this linkSubscribe to The Sugar Daddy Podcast newsletterExplore The Sugar Daddy Podcast Stan Store — Downloadables, tools, and more to level up your money game together!Head over to our YouTube channel to catch this episode in full video form.You can also email us at: hello@thesugardaddypodcast.comConnect with us on Instagram We're most active over at @thesugardaddypodcastChat with BrandonWant to work together?

Geoffrey Wawro, guest author, explores the Gulf of Tonkin incident in August 1964, which served as a political catalyst for the Vietnam War. Lyndon Johnson and Robert McNamara sought an incident to galvanize domestic support against conservative critics accusing them of a "no-win" policy. Though the attack was largely concocted or provoked by covert CIA operations, it provided the "blank check" needed from Congress to escalate the conflict. President Johnson initially moved cautiously to avoid Chinese intervention, a fear rooted in the Korean War experience. The shift from an advisory role to direct combat troop commitment began in early 1965, with General Westmoreland taking command as bases were increasingly targeted by the Viet Cong. Ultimately, the war is characterized as a political war of choice driven by high-level politicians rather than existential necessity. The Vietnam War: A Military History (1)

Professor William Taubman, guest author, recounts how, in March 1945, Robert McNamara served on Guam as a statistical advisor to General Curtis LeMay, where he played a pivotal role in shifting B-29 bombing tactics to low-altitude strikes. This strategy led to the devastating firebombing of Tokyo, killing approximately 100,000 civilians and prompting McNamara to later admit that they would have been condemned as "war criminals" had the U.S. lost. This early career highlighted his psychological compulsion to serve strong, demanding men—a trait forged by a cold, distant father and a driving mother who worshiped his brilliance while simultaneously infantilizing him.

Robert Cwiklik, guest author, discusses the pivotal moments following Lee's surrender on April 9, 1865. President Lincoln, addressing a jubilant crowd, tentatively endorsed voting rights for African-Americans, specifically those who served in the Union Army or demonstrated "intelligence." This stance was influenced by his 1864 meeting with New Orleans intellectuals John Baptist Roudanez and Arnold Bertonneau, who advocated for Black suffrage in occupied Louisiana. Lincoln viewed a loyal Black electorate as essential for reknitting the Union, especially in states like Louisiana where the Black population exceeded 50%. However, this suggestion of citizenship and franchise was so inflammatory that it served as the primary motivator for John Wilkes Booth to proceed with assassination just days later. The New Orleans Tribune, founded by Roudanez and Bertonneau, became a central voice for these radical changes, setting the stage for the violent resistance that would characterize the post-war South.

Ronald White, guest author, describes how, in his final decades, Chamberlain served as the surveyor of the port in Portland, a position that allowed him to continue writing and speaking while undergoing repeated surgeries for his Petersburg wound. Even in his 80s, his intellectual curiosity remained boundless; he traveled to Egypt and the Holy Land, reading the Bible in Greek and the Quran in Arabic each evening. He endured profound personal losses, including his wife Fanny and his brother Tom, yet he remained active in civic roles for the blind and Bible societies. Prevented by failing health from attending the 50th Gettysburg reunion in 1913, he died at home in 1914. He is widely remembered as the final casualty of the Civil War because his death was the direct result of the wound he received five decades earlier. He is buried in Brunswick's Pine Grove Cemetery near his beloved Bowdoin. On Great Fields: The Life and Unlikely Heroism of Joshua Lawrence Chamberlain (8)1903
