As we celebrate the holidays and the year comes to a close, I reflect on the journey behind my book, Your Journey to Financial Freedom, and share why the upcoming paperback edition feels especially meaningful. I also open up about what financial freedom looks like beyond hitting a specific number, why flexibility and choice matter more than perfection, and how having a framework not a rigid plan has helped me adjust as life has changed.

SHOW 12-22-25 THE SHOW BEGINS WITH DOUBTS ABOUT FUTURE NAVY. 1941 HICKAM FIELD 1. Restoring Naval Autonomy: Arguments for Separating the Navy from DoD. Tom Modly argues the Navy is an "underperforming asset" within the Defense Department's corporate structure, similar to how Fiat Chrysler successfully spun off Ferrari. He suggests the Navy needs independence to address critical shipbuilding deficits and better protect global commerce and vulnerable undersea cables from adversaries. 2. Future Fleets: Decentralizing Firepower to Counter Chinese Growth. Tom Modly warns that China's shipbuilding capacity vastly outpaces the US, requiring a shift toward distributed forces rather than expensive, concentrated platforms. He advocates for a reinvigorated, independent Department of the Navy to foster the creativity needed to address asymmetric threats like Houthi attacks on high-value assets. 3. British Weakness: The Failure to Challenge Beijing Over Jimmy Lai. Mark Simon predicts Prime Minister Starmer will fail to secure Jimmy Lai's release because the UK mistakenly views China as an economic savior. He notes the UK's diminished military and economic leverage leads to a submissive diplomatic stance, despite China'sdeclining ability to offer investment. 4. Enforcing Sanctions: Interdicting the Shadow Fleet to Squeeze China. Victoria Coates details the Trump administration's enforcement of a "Monroe Doctrine" corollary, using naval power to seize tankers carrying Venezuelan oil to China. This strategy exposes China's lack of maritime projection and energy vulnerability, as Beijingcannot legally contest the seizures of illicit shadow fleet vessels. 5. Symbolic Strikes: US and Jordan Target Resurgent ISIS in Syria. Following an attack on US personnel, the US and Jordan conducted airstrikes against ISIS strongholds, likely with Syrian regime consultation. Ahmed Sharawi questions the efficacy of striking desert warehouses when ISIS cells have moved into urban areas, suggesting the strikes were primarily symbolic domestic messaging. 6. Failure to Disarm: Hezbollah's Persistence and UNIFIL's Inefficacy. David Daoud reports that the Lebanesegovernment is failing to disarm Hezbollah south of the Litani River, merely evicting them from abandoned sites. He argues UNIFIL is an ineffective tripwire, as Hezbollah continues to rebuild infrastructure and receive funding right under international observers' noses. 7. Global Jihad: The Distinct Threats of the Brotherhood and ISIS. Edmund Fitton-Brown contrasts the Muslim Brotherhood's long-term infiltration of Western institutions with ISIS's violent, reckless approach. He warns that ISISremains viable, with recent facilitated attacks in Australia indicating a resurgence in capability beyond simple "inspired" violence. 8. The Forever War: Jihadist Patience vs. American Cycles. Bill Roggio argues the US has failed to defeat jihadist ideology or funding, allowing groups like Al-Qaeda to persist in Afghanistan and Africa. He warns that adversaries view American withdrawals as proof of untrustworthiness, exploiting the US tendency to fight short-term wars against enemies planning for decades. 9. The Professional: Von Steuben's Transformation of the Continental Army. Richard Bell introduces Baron von Steuben as a desperate, unemployed Prussian officer who professionalized the ragtag Continental Army at Valley Forge. Washington's hiring of foreign experts like Steuben demonstrated a strategic willingness to utilize global talent to ensure the revolution's survival. 10. Privateers and Prison Ships: The Unsung Cost of Maritime Independence. Richard Bell highlights the crucial role of privateers like William Russell, who raided British shipping when the Continental Navy was weak. Captured privateers faced horrific conditions in British "black hole" facilities like Mill Prison and the deadly prison ship Jersey in New York Harbor, where mortality rates reached 50%. 11. Caught in the Crossfire: Indigenous Struggles in the Revolutionary War. Molly Brant, a Mohawk leader, allied with the British to stop settler encroachment but became a refugee when the British failed to protect Indigenous lands. Post-war, white Americans constructed myths portraying themselves as blameless victims while ignoring their own Indigenous allies and British betrayals regarding land rights. 12. The Irish Dimension: Revolutionary Hopes and Brutal Repression. The Irish viewed the American Revolutionas a signal that the British Empire was vulnerable, sparking the failed 1798 Irish rebellion. While the British suppressed Irish independence brutally under Cornwallis, Irish immigrants and Scots-Irish settlers like Andrew Jackson fervently supported the Continental Army against the Crown. 13. Assessing Battlefield Realities: Russian Deceit and Ukrainian Counterattacks. John Hardie analyzes the "culture of deceit" within the Russian military, exemplified by false claims of capturing Kupyansk while Ukraine actually counterattacked. This systemic lying leads to overconfidence in Putin's strategy, though Ukraine also faces challenges with commanders hesitating to report lost positions to avoid forced counterattacks. 14. Shifts in Latin America: Brazilian Elections and Venezuelan Hope. Ernesto Araujo and Alejandro Peña Esclusapredict a 2026 battle between socialist accommodation and freedom-oriented transformation in Brazil, highlighted by Flavio Bolsonaro's candidacy against Lula. Meanwhile, Peña Esclusa anticipates Venezuela's liberation and a broader regional shift toward the right following leftist defeats in Ecuador, Argentina, and Chile. 15. Trump's Security Strategy: Homeland Defense Lacks Global Clarity. John Yoo praises the strategy's focus on homeland defense and the Western Hemisphere, reviving a corollary to the Monroe Doctrine. However, he criticizes the failure to explicitly name China as an adversary or define clear goals for defending allies in Asia and Europe against great power rivals. 16. Alienating Allies: The Strategic Cost of Attacking European Partners. John Yoo argues that imposing tariffs and attacking democratic European allies undermines the coalition needed to counter China and Russia. He asserts that democracies are the most reliable partners for protecting American security and values, making cooperation essential despite resource constraints and political disagreements.

This episode is a little shorter, a little messier, and very real. I sat down ready to record one thing, and my energy said absolutely not. So instead of forcing it, I pivoted...and what came out was three lessons I think a lot of overwhelmed, high-achieving SLPs need to hear right now. If you've ever felt discouraged because you know better but still struggle, this one's for you.What You'll LearnHow to recognize your energy in the moment when to honor itWhy making progress doesn't mean you'll never struggle again (and why that doesn't mean you're failing)Why “regression” isn't really regression--it's humanHow your brain looks for evidence to confirm whatever story you're telling yourselfA simple mindset shift to stop spiraling when your inner critic gets loudIf This Resonates…If this episode hit home -- especially if you're thinking “I know all this, so why do I still struggle?” -- I'd love to talk with you. That's exactly the kind of loop I help clients untangle in coaching.

In this episode of Lead-Lag Live, I sit down with Greg Babij, Co-Founder and Chief Investment Officer at Sundial, to explore why traditional buy-and-hold strategies may struggle in a market defined by faster cycles, rising volatility, and structural change.From the rise of zero-day options to the importance of tactical exposure, tail hedging, and trend following, Babij explains how portfolios can be designed to survive growth, recession, inflation, and deflation without relying on predictions.In this episode:– Why buy and hold may no longer deliver the same results– How zero-day options are changing market behavior– The difference between prediction and probability-based investing– Why tactical and non-correlated strategies matter more now– How to construct portfolios that adapt across market regimesLead-Lag Live brings you inside conversations with the financial thinkers who shape markets.

Are you tired of "starting over" with your nutrition goals — again and again — every single year? You say you want to eat better… You want to feel better… But something always seems to pull you off track. This episode is part two of our 2026 Success Series, and we're talking specifically about weight loss, nutrition, and your relationship with food. No more vague intentions. No more strict plans that don't fit real life. No more relying on willpower, then beating yourself up when it fails. If you're ready to make real, sustainable changes — and finally follow through — this is the episode for you.

In this episode of Grow Think Tank, I unpack the critical shifts CEOs must anticipate as we approach 2026, with a sharp focus on clarity in leadership and organizational expectations. I share five key predictions shaping the business landscape: sustained recession-like consumer behavior, the necessity of intentional pricing strategies amid shrinkflation, a growing premium on predictability over aggressive growth, the importance of empowering leaders to eliminate decision bottlenecks, and the need to cultivate a culture rooted in trust and accountability. I also offer a pragmatic perspective on AI adoption, encouraging leaders to integrate it strategically in the service of clear business objectives rather than chasing hype. The episode concludes with practical reflection points to help leaders recalibrate their approach and drive sustainable growth in an increasingly complex environment. Episode Highlights & Time Stamps 2:14 Recession-like Behavior Persists 4:33 Pricing Increases and Shrinkflation 7:01 Predictability Over Aggressive Growth 9:13 CEO Bottleneck as a Growth Killer 14:18 Culture as a Performance System 17:56 The Good, Bad, and Ugly of AI Leadership Clarity in a Shifting Business Landscape As we approach 2026, clarity in leadership and organizational expectations will become a defining advantage for CEOs. Drawing from years of conversations with founders and executives of high-growth companies, this episode explores how even minor misalignments in leadership expectations can create outsized organizational challenges. Leaders who take ownership of clearly articulating expectations—and ensuring those expectations truly land with their teams gain leverage, alignment, and momentum. This section sets the foundation for why clarity is no longer optional, but essential for navigating increasing complexity. Five Predictions Every CEO Must Prepare For The core of the episode centers on five predictions shaping the future of business: Persistent Recession-Like Behavior: Regardless of economic labels, consumer caution is here to stay. Buying decisions are more deliberate, value-driven, and less impulsive. CEOs are encouraged to simplify offerings, build predictability, and reflect on how their organizations respond to shifting customer behavior. Intentional Pricing in the Age of Shrinkflation: As prices rise and value perceptions tighten, leaders must price with clarity and intention. Communicating value effectively builds trust and reduces friction in increasingly price-sensitive markets. Predictability Over Aggressive Growth: Stability, consistency, and dependable revenue streams will outperform volatility. CEOs are prompted to examine scalability, operational design, and whether their structures support sustainable performance. Eliminating the CEO Bottleneck: Over-centralized decision-making slows organizations down. This segment challenges leaders to identify where delegation, empowerment, and shared leadership can accelerate growth. Redefining Culture Beyond Perks: High-performing cultures are built on trust, accountability, and clear expectations not superficial benefits. Leaders are guided to redesign roles around outcomes and uphold performance standards that drive engagement. AI, Alignment, and Leading Into 2026 The episode concludes with a pragmatic look at artificial intelligence as both an opportunity and a risk. While AI can unlock efficiency and scale, rushed adoption without strategic intent often fails to deliver ROI. AI, when approached thoughtfully, becomes a leadership discipline—not just a technology initiative. Throughout this final section, CEOs are given reflection prompts to assess alignment, leadership leverage, and focus. The central takeaway is clear: leading successfully in 2026 will not require more effort, but a sharper focus. By prioritizing clarity, alignment, and empowered leadership, CEOs can drive sustainable growth and confidently navigate an evolving business environment. Key Takeaways Leading in 2026 will not require more effort it will require a shift in focus. By prioritizing clarity, alignment, predictability, and leadership leverage, CEOs can position their organizations for sustainable growth and confidently navigate what lies ahead.

As I was reflecting on this year — on the coaching calls, the email exchanges, the closets I've seen, the breakthroughs I've watched happen — I realized something powerful. I don't just have the opportunity to work with people on their style. I get a front-row seat to pick up on the patterns.   And when you work with hundreds of women across different seasons of life, various budgets, body types, personalities… you start to see what actually moves the needle across the board… and what really doesn't.   Today, I want to walk you through five style shifts that have changed EVERYTHING for my clients and me this year. These are perspective upgrades — the kinds of shifts that quietly change how you get dressed, how confident you feel, and how much mental energy your wardrobe takes up in your day. They're powerful and empowering and I want you to benefit from all that we've learned this year as well.   So let's discuss a handful of mindset swaps that will not only transform your confidence, but how you think about your style from here on out!   FREE 5-MIN PERSONAL STYLE QUIZ: https://herstylellc.com/quiz HER STYLE ON INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/heatherriggsstyle/ JOIN HER STYLE COLLECTIVE: https://herstylellc.com/collective SUBMIT YOUR GIVEAWAY ENTRIES VIA INSTAGRAM @heatherriggsstyle OR VIA EMAIL TO support@herstylellc.com *** Enter today for your LAST CHANCE to win one of 3 incredible prizes between Thursday, December 18 - Monday, December 22, 2025 at 11:59pm ET.

After last week's pressure cooker, the energy finally eases up. This is a quieter stretch, but not an empty one. The story is still unfolding, just without the universe yelling in all caps.With fewer major aspects in play, this week is about processing what just happened. The dust settles. Emotions regulate. Conversations surface that help clarify where things stand and where they're headed. Some realizations may still sting, but they arrive with less force and more choice.There are moments of emotional intensity, flashes of truth, and a few revealing conversations, especially around relationships and long term plans. But overall, this is a pause. A chance to think, recalibrate, and decide your next move without being rushed.Consider this the integration phase. What broke last week is showing you why. What survived is proving its strength. And what comes next is forming quietly in the background.Take the breather. You earned it.

Christmas at Sandringham is set to look different this year, with familiar absences, softened protocols, and newer traditions taking hold under King Charles the Third. We run through who is expected, who is not, and how the day is likely to unfold from Christmas Eve dinner through the walk to church and the King's broadcast.We also look at the mood inside the family as the King continues treatment, the Princess of Wales marks her first Christmas since announcing remission, and the Wales family begins a new chapter at their new home.Plus, a report from royal biographer Robert Jobson claims the late Queen Elizabeth the Second was angered by Meghan Markle's sixty thousand pound Dior gown and later deeply distressed by the use of the name Lilibet, with contrasting accounts from Harry's side and other royal authors.Hear our new show "Crown and Controversy: Prince Andrew" here.Check out "Palace Intrigue Presents: King WIlliam" here.

In this episode, we bid farewell to the interstellar comet 3I/Atlas as it completes its closest approach to Earth, offering a glimpse into a cosmic journey that spans billions of years. We discuss the Parker Solar Probe's remarkable 26th close approach to the Sun, where it continues to gather critical data about solar activity at a staggering speed of 430,000 miles per hour. In a more whimsical turn, we share the exciting news of a public contest to design a mascot for NASA's Artemis 2 mission, highlighting the incredible engagement from around the globe.Shifting gears, we delve into the enigma of luminous fast blue optical transients (LFBOTs), exploring a recent discovery that suggests these cosmic explosions may arise from massive black holes tearing apart companion stars. We also examine the potential threat posed by asteroid 2024 YR4, which has a small chance of impacting the Moon in 2032, potentially scattering debris into near-Earth space. Finally, we analyze Russia's revamped plans for its future in space, as it opts to repurpose aging modules from the International Space Station into a new national space station, raising questions about safety and scientific capabilities.### Timestamps & Stories01:05 –Story 1: Farewell to Interstellar Comet 3I/Atlas****Key Facts**- Comet 3I/Atlas made its closest approach to Earth, coming within 168 million miles.- It is only the third interstellar object detected passing through our solar system.03:20 – **Story 2: Parker Solar Probe's Close Approach****Key Facts**- The probe completed its 26th perihelion, flying just 3.8 million miles from the Sun.- It operated autonomously while gathering crucial data about solar activity.05:45 – **Story 3: NASA's Artemis 2 Mascot Contest****Key Facts**- NASA invited the public to design a zero gravity indicator for the Artemis 2 mission.- Thousands of submissions were received, with 25 finalists selected.08:00 – **Story 4: Understanding LFBOTs****Key Facts**- Recent findings suggest LFBOTs result from black holes shredding companion stars.- The energy emitted during these events is significantly higher than typical supernova explosions.10:15 – **Story 5: Potential Impact of Asteroid 2024 YR4****Key Facts**- There is a 4% chance that this building-sized asteroid will hit the Moon in 2032.- The impact could release energy equivalent to 400 times the Hiroshima bomb.12:00 – **Story 6: Russia's Future in Space****Key Facts**- Russia plans to repurpose the old ISS modules into a new national space station.- Concerns arise regarding the safety and maintenance of aging infrastructure.### Sources & Further Reading1. NASA2. James Webb Space Telescope3. Space.com4. European Space Agency5. NASA Solar System Exploration### Follow & ContactX/Twitter: @AstroDailyPodInstagram: @astrodailypodEmail: hello@astronomydaily.ioWebsite: astronomydaily.ioClear skies and see you next time!

ELECTIONS IN CHILE, PERU, AND HONDURAS SIGNAL REGIONAL SHIFTS Colleague Professor Evan Ellis. In Chile, José Antonio Kast's rise reflects a rejection of progressive policies and crime, favoring order and investment. Meanwhile, Peru faces political fragmentation and violence, Honduras struggles with electoral disputes, and Costa Rica appears poised to elect a pro-US candidate who aims to limit Chinese influence.

Conflicting jobs data indicates a complex economic landscape for IT service providers, as the unemployment rate in the tech sector has risen to 4% with a loss of 134,000 jobs between October and November 2025. Despite a drop in the overall unemployment rate to 4.2% and a projected growth of managed services contributing $608 billion to the B2B technology sector, the mixed signals from economic indicators complicate decision-making for the Federal Reserve and raise concerns about consumer spending. Analysts emphasize that the current job losses reflect a shift in responsibility from internal roles to external managed service providers (MSPs), which may not alleviate underlying risks.The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has released a draft profile addressing cybersecurity challenges posed by artificial intelligence (AI), highlighting the need for organizations to manage AI-related security risks effectively. This profile outlines how AI can enhance cybersecurity defenses while also detailing the responsibilities that come with its deployment. Recent assessments reveal that while some AI models perform better in security contexts, the lack of clarity around accountability when AI systems make decisions remains a significant concern for MSPs.Private equity activity is accelerating in the managed services sector, exemplified by Broadwing Capital's acquisition of CloudScale365, which aims to create a platform addressing gaps in the fragmented IT-managed services market. This consolidation trend raises questions for MSPs about operational norms and the potential loss of control over their business models. As platforms seek to standardize pricing and decision-making processes, MSPs must consider how these changes will affect their service delivery and customer relationships.For MSPs and IT service leaders, the evolving landscape underscores the importance of understanding where risk is shifting and how to price and govern accordingly. The retreat from AGI hype and the focus on practical AI applications signal a need for clarity in decision-making processes, particularly as automation becomes more prevalent. MSPs that can articulate the limitations of their AI systems and establish clear accountability frameworks will be better positioned to navigate the complexities of the current market. Four things to know today00:00 As Jobs Data Conflicts and Tech Employment Slips, Managed Services Absorb Risk and Responsibility05:46 NIST's AI Security Framework Meets Reality as Model Safety Gaps Expose Accountability Risks08:54 Broadwing Launches MSP Platform to Standardize Scale, Signaling Growing PE Pressure on MSP Operations11:03 AI Rebrands Itself as Open Source Expands, Automation Scales, and Accountability Gets Murkier This is the Business of Tech.    Supported by:  https://saasalerts.com/mspradio/

In the latest episode of the Whole Whale Podcast, hosts George and Nick reflect on the transformative themes that shaped the nonprofit sector in 2025. With a focus on AI's impact, they explore how answer engine optimization (AEO) has redefined nonprofit discovery and engagement. AI's rapid adoption has led to decreased organic traffic for nonprofits, necessitating strategic pivots in content and donor engagement. George highlights a significant increase in AI-generated content, with Whole Whale producing nearly a million words daily. This shift underscores the need for nonprofits to establish internal AI policies and balance AI use with human oversight to maintain ethical standards and foster innovation. Nick introduces the "crawl, walk, run" framework, guiding nonprofits in adopting AI responsibly. He emphasizes the importance of maintaining human expertise and authority in an AI-saturated world, urging organizations to focus on quality over quantity in content creation. The episode also revisits key rants from 2025, including Microsoft's controversial changes to its nonprofit grant program and GoFundMe's unauthorized creation of shadow donation pages for nonprofits. These challenges highlight the importance of maintaining autonomy and control over nonprofit branding and fundraising. Looking ahead to 2026, George and Nick advise nonprofits to prioritize strategic use of AI, leveraging high-quality intelligence tokens to amplify impact while avoiding the pitfalls of AI-generated "slop." They stress the importance of creating original, authoritative content that reflects an organization's mission and expertise. As they close the episode, George and Nick express optimism for 2026, anticipating renewed energy and opportunities for nonprofits amidst upcoming midterms and sector transformations.

Ransomware payments may be falling, but attackers are not retreating—they are shifting their focus upstream to hypervisors, where a single compromise can undo years of layered security investment. This change fundamentally alters the risk equation for MSPs whose architectures emphasize shared infrastructure and efficiency. Lower payments reflect reduced victim capacity, not reduced attacker effectiveness, forcing adversaries to increase the impact of each successful breach. Recovery speed, architectural resilience, and catastrophic-failure planning now matter more than detection narratives.At the same time, regulators are tightening expectations around AI safety while modernization funding stalls. State attorneys general are warning major AI vendors about harmful outcomes involving minors, even as Congress allows critical federal IT modernization funding to lapse. This leaves implementers operating in environments where AI is treated as production infrastructure but lacks the controls, funding, and policy clarity required to manage risk. In these conditions, responsibility concentrates on service providers without corresponding authority.Concerns over AI transparency deepen as OpenAI's shift to a for-profit model triggers internal resignations and allegations of suppressed economic impact research. When AI vendors control both platforms and narratives, ecosystem participants lose access to inconvenient truths about displacement, quality degradation, and operational disruption. MSPs experience these impacts directly, often after automation decisions have already reshaped staffing, workflows, and customer expectations.Security vendors are responding by introducing AI governance and control-layer tools, but carefully stopping short of owning outcomes. From AI detection and response to bundled copilots, zero-trust packages, and expanded vulnerability scanning, the message is consistency and experimentation—not accountability. As AI systems move from passive tools to active decision-makers, governance becomes an ongoing service rather than a product feature. MSPs that fail to price, document, and limit decision risk will inherit liabilities they cannot automate away. Four things to know today 00:00 Ransomware Payments Fall 33% as Attacks Persist and Shift Toward Hypervisors04:33 State Attorneys General Warn OpenAI, Microsoft, and Apple on AI Child Safety as Federal IT Modernization Funding Stalls08:24 Former OpenAI Employees Raise Transparency Concerns as Economic Impact Research Is Curtailed10:51 CrowdStrike, Microsoft, Vectra, WatchGuard, and LevelBlue Push AI Security Controls Without Owning Outcomes This is the Business of Tech.    Supported by:  https://mailprotector.com/mspradio/

November's numbers reveal a market finding a new rhythm—more homes hitting the market, buyers still moving, days on market tightening, and prices holding steady despite shifting affordability. This breakdown walks through what the latest stats really show, why inventory feels bigger (but not always better), and how buyer and seller behavior is quietly adjusting as the year winds down. Fewer surprises, clearer patterns, and just enough momentum to keep things interesting.

  • Why motivation disappears right before expansion and what that actually means  • How nervous system overload affects decision making, visibility, and sales
  • Why consuming more strategy can make this phase worse
  • The difference between a breakdown and a breakthrough for business owners
  • Why this season requires regulation, support, and integration instead of hustle    Studies on the nervous system show that the brain resists rapid identity change before it supports it.

Because what you're experiencing isn't a problem to fix — it's a transition to stabilize.

Welcome to Wrestling Tonight, with your hosts Acefield Retro and Chad. We open Episode 155 with the defining image of the week: Gunther standing tall as John Cena taps out in the final match of his WWE career. What should have been a shared emotional release instead became a revealing moment about WWE's creative posture, as Saturday Night's Main Event exposed the company's increasingly adversarial relationship with its audience. The result wasn't the issue. Gunther is already a made man, and his credibility never hinged on retiring Cena. The friction came from the framing. The show was presented as a celebration, yet paced like Dick Clark's New Year's Rockin' Eve. By the time Cena escaped the sleeper once and Gunther reapplied it, the atmosphere didn't crest into catharsis. It stalled. That disconnect sharpened during the post-match ceremony. WWE rushed into pageantry — roster surrounding the ring, titles presented, tribute video cued — without letting the building settle. The reaction made clear the audience understood exactly what kind of ending they'd been handed. We break down why the finish felt less organic than corrective, and contrast it with Sting's retirement in AEW, which showed how patience and alignment can create a farewell that feels complete. From there, we pivot to AEW's Continental Classic, where Dynamite delivered real movement. "Speedball" Mike Bailey stunned Kyle Fletcher, Kazuchika Okada handled Jack Perry, and Claudio Castagnoli and Konosuke Takeshita fought to a punishing time-limit draw that reinforced the Classic as AEW's most sports-driven concept. We then hit an Observer-style business and schedule corner, breaking down AEW's crowded December — early U.K. Collision, a three-hour Manchester Dynamite with $1 million at stake, a tight Worlds End promotional window — before flipping to WWE's business side: Royal Rumble demand, archive strategy, NXT PLE timing, and mid-December pre-taping. We close with a look ahead at a loaded week across the industry, from Holiday Bash and the Continental Classic to Impact's cage chaos, SmackDown's continued Cena fallout, NXT's road to New Year's Evil, and a packed runway toward Worlds End, Wrestle Kingdom, the Royal Rumble, Elimination Chamber, and WrestleMania 42. This is Episode 155 of Wrestling Tonight — where the moments matter, the context counts, and the conversation goes deeper than the finish

The 2025-26 NC State Wrestling season is swiftly moving along as we head into second semester action.

In this episode, we bid farewell to 2025 with a year-in-review analysis of the biggest news, changes, and trends in rewards, credit cards, and award travel over the last 12 months. This episode is part one of a two-part year-in-review series, and I'm joined by Kelly, the Points and Miles Doc, to break down the biggest changes, surprises, and shakeups in the points and award travel world over the last year.  In this first half of the conversation, we focus on the biggest wins and disappointments of the year—from credit card issuers that made significant changes to new programs that expanded what's possible with points. We talk through how the landscape has shifted, why earning and redeeming points feels more complex than it used to, and how those changes showed up across credit cards, transferable points currencies, and airline loyalty programs. This episode isn't about declaring whether 2025 was "good" or "bad." It's about understanding how the points and miles world is becoming more specific, more nuanced, and more complex—and what that means for how you participate in it moving forward. Be sure to tune in next week for Part Two, where we'll dive deeper into the trends we expect to shape 2026, along with our predictions and award travel wish lists for the year ahead.

The Burden of Escalation After Invasion: Colleague Elbridge Colby argues that if denial defense succeeds, the burden of escalation shifts to China, forcing it to choose between retreating or risking nuclear war; however, if defense fails, the coalition faces the daunting challenge of generating the political resolve necessary to counterattack and reverse a Chinese occupation. 1903 QING DYNASTY
