Ongoing investigations and controversies related to Jeffrey Epstein and his associations, particularly with Donald Trump. The DOJ has agreed to Trump's demand to investigate powerful men mentioned in Epstein's emails, though Trump's name is absent from those to be investigated. A House vote to release government records on Epstein is imminent, supported by several key Republican figures. Trump has distanced himself from Marjorie Taylor Greene over her advocacy for releasing Epstein materials, calling her 'wacky' and supporting her primary opponent. The script explores the implications of released emails, Trump's past relationship with Epstein, and speculations about Trump's knowledge of Epstein's activities. Additionally, the script includes an interview with Barry Levine, author of 'The Spider Inside the Criminal Web of Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell,' discussing various emails and their potential meanings. The latter part of the script shifts to housing market issues, discussing the rising median age of home buyers, economic implications, and potential solutions. Cody Sanchez, author of 'Main Street Millionaire,' provides insights on the affordability crisis. The script concludes with a discussion on retail giant Target facing backlash for rolling back DEI initiatives, and an interview with Reverend Jamal Bryant advocating for a boycott.

The UFO Agenda, So... You Want to Know the Truth? - While teaching school in the 1970s, Diane was the Florida State Section Director for the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON), investigating a number of amazing and mysterious UFO sightings. However, Diane knew within herself that her motivation for looking into UFOs, paranormal phenomenon, and other-dimensional realities was more than idle curiosity. She suspected she had experienced an otherworldly encounter when she was a child on her North Iowa farm. Who are they? Where do they come from? What do they want? For centuries, the UFO phenomenon has intrigued us, and now renowned UFO researcher, Diane Tessman, brings us face to face with some startling truths about the alien agenda. Why are some people chosen for contact? Are the visitors from far-flung other worlds, or quantum projections of our own mysterious consciousness? The UFO Agenda is a journey outside the box - an uplifting must-read for anyone seriously interested in understanding the most profound mystery ever to confront the human race.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-x-zone-radio-tv-show--1078348/support.Please note that all XZBN radio and/or television shows are Copyright © REL-MAR McConnell Meda Company, Niagara, Ontario, Canada – www.rel-mar.com.

Bible Prophecy Under the Microscope-Episode 66 Gary discusses how "end-times" prophecy is overflowing on social media lately and how many are claiming that we are in the last days. Anyone with a computer and a camera is able to share their "biblical studies" and "insights" into current events and the Bible, but none of them are honest enough to admit that this has been going on for decades with similar failed results.

In the latest episode of the Need Some Introduction podcast, host Victor and co-host Sona delve into the third episode of the Apple TV series 'Pluribus,' titled 'Grenade.' They discuss Carol's struggles with isolation and control in a post-apocalyptic world where everyone except her is part of a hive mind. The episode breaks down Carol's interactions with other characters, her growing frustration, and her plans to leverage her newfound understanding of the rules governing this new world. Alongside, the hosts touch on various other series and movies, including 'One Battle After Another,' 'Edington,' and 'Poker Face.' The conversation also explores broader themes of socialism, human connection, and the disparities between the rich and the poor.   Then Victor and special guest, Lucy, who is making her first appearance on the podcast, discuss a wide array of television shows and movies. They dive into the highs and lows of 'Alien Earth,' disappointed by its promising start but unsatisfying finish before focusing on 'Down Cemetery Lane,' Mick Heron's adaptation for TV, which has captured their interest more than the latest season of 'Slow Horses.' They talk in-depth about the unique blend of British humor and drama, shedding light on cultural nuances and discussing standout characters portrayed by Emma Thompson and Ruth Wilson. Finally, in recommendations, they discuss Scorsese rewatches,  shout-out  'Good Boy,' a low-budget horror movie praised for its creativity and 'Sorry, Baby,' a touching film now available on HBO Max. mailto:needssomeintroduction@gmail.com 00:00 Introduction and Podcast Overview 00:33 Movie Recommendations and Reviews 02:22 TV Show Updates and Cancellations 05:35 Upcoming Podcast Episodes and Discussions 06:22 New Shows to Watch 12:31 Harlan Coben Adaptations 19:27 Down Cemetery Road Review 25:20 Pluribus Episode Breakdown 36:06 Cloudy Skies and Missed Opportunities 38:39 Isolation and Personal Loss 41:18 Comfort Shows and Personal Reflections 42:42 A Perfect Yet Flawed World 53:20 The Grenade and Realizations 01:04:17 Speculations and Future Directions 01:10:18 Introduction and Guest Welcome 01:10:35 Discussing 'Alien: Earth' Series 01:12:21 Reviewing 'Down Cemetery Lane' 01:13:12 Comparing 'Down Cemetery Lane' and 'Slow Horses' 01:14:56 Character Analysis: Ruth Wilson and Emma Thompson 01:23:20 Visual Style and Cinematic Risks 01:28:25 Mistrust in Government and Bureaucracy 01:29:24 British Cultural Perceptions 01:30:39 Humor and Cultural References in the Show 01:36:04 Supporting Characters and Their Impact 01:37:38 Recent TV Shows and Movies Discussion 01:40:53 Low Budget Films with High Impact 01:42:15 Final Recommendations and Farewell

However, she soon realizes she must break the news to Drew that she has no intentions of reuniting with him, setting the stage for an explosive fallout. GH spoilers suggest Drew, despite his flaws, is known for his charm and wealth, making him a catch for the women of Port Charles. Speculations are rife about who he might pursue next. The list of potential love interests includes his former flame Carly Corinthos, played by Laura Wright, his ex Nina Reeves, played by Cynthia Watros, and the devious Ava Jerome, portrayed by Maura West. An unexpected pairing could be with Jacinda Bracken, portrayed by Paige Herschell.  Spoilers for General Hospital hint Elizabeth Webber, played by Rebecca Herbst, might have a possible romantic entanglement with Drew, which might ignite a spark of redemption for the much-despised character.   The Soap Dirt podcast made the Top 100 List for Apple Podcast's Entertainment News Category.

Romans 8:18-23 — Speculation about the end of the world and the millennium (Christ's thousand year reign) has captivated the Christian imagination throughout church history. This, in conjunction with the intermediate state and the eternal state of believers, provokes great discussion among pastors and theologians. Thankfully, Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones helps the church by navigating these topics in this sermon on Romans 8:18–23 titled “Death and Heaven.” He pauses his exposition of Romans in order to demonstrate the futility of interpreting Romans 8 as referring to a literal thousand year reign of Christ instead of the future glory when the children of God inherit the new heaven and new earth. Far from reducing the Christian hope to some type of “spiritism” where a non-bodily existence is the goal, the apostle Paul maintains an eternal state where the body will be like Christ's resurrected body. This is different than the intermediate state, says Dr. Lloyd-Jones, when after death the Christian goes to be with Christ until the resurrection of the dead. All this, he argues, has practical application as Christians engage the world in politics and, most importantly, as they go through great trials and suffering in this life. Listen to Dr. Lloyd-Jones expound the great biblical truths about death, heaven, intermediate state, glory, resurrection, and the second coming of Christ.

A few months ago, we covered the disturbing case involving rising R&B artist David Anthony Burke, better known as D4vd, and the disappearance of 15-year-old Celeste Rivas Hernandez from Riverside County, California. Celeste vanished in April of 2024, when she was just thirteen, and over time, online chatter began linking her to Burke, a singer whose breakout hits like Romantic Homicide and Here With Me had made him one of the biggest viral artists of the last few years. Those rumors took a horrifying turn in September of 2025, when Celeste's remains were discovered inside an abandoned Tesla registered to Burke. Speculation was that the body had been in the vehicle for an extended period of time, and although the cause of death hasn't been officially released, authorities were treating it as a homicide. Since then, Burke has cancelled his world tour, suspended upcoming releases, and become the focus of an active death investigation. As we learned in our first video, there were already unsettling connections between the two; from matching tattoos and online interactions to song lyrics and videos that many fans now view in a far darker light. Today, we have some updates in this case.

Welcome back to Tablesetters, your home for deep-dive baseball conversation and analysis. Steve and Devin are here, and we're thrilled to welcome back Keith Raad, the play-by-play broadcaster for the New York Mets on WCBS 880, returning to the show for the first time since Episode 37. Keith works alongside Mets Hall of Famer Howie Rose, bringing fans every pitch, every rally, and every unforgettable moment of Mets baseball. You can follow Keith on X @keithraad and hear him live all season long on the Mets' broadcast. In this episode, we take a hard look at one of the most compelling—and confounding—teams in baseball. The 2025 Mets went from owning MLB's best record through mid-June to missing the postseason entirely, a collapse defined by bullpen fatigue, record-setting pitching turnover, and a clubhouse tested by adversity. Keith offers firsthand insight from the booth, breaking down what made the first-half magic so special, how Carlos Mendoza held the group together through the storm, and what lessons the team can carry forward into 2026. From there, we dig into the offseason storylines dominating Queens: the opt-outs of Pete Alonso and Edwin Díaz, what their market value truly looks like, and whether David Stearns can retain both without compromising the organization's flexibility. We explore the reported “culture reset” and the trade chatter around Jeff McNeil, assessing how the front office might reshape this roster's identity around its long-term superstar core. Then we turn to the rotation and a rumor with real traction: Tarik Skubal. The 2024 AL Cy Young winner has been linked to the Mets amid uncertainty over his future in Detroit, and Ken Rosenthal recently called New York “the obvious team” if the Tigers can't extend him. Keith breaks down how that potential pursuit could affect the Mets' 2026 plans and whether Stearns might resist handing out long-term deals this winter to keep the door open for Skubal next year. Of course, the conversation also highlights the organization's young foundation—Mark Vientos, Brett Baty, Ronny Mauricio, and arms like Brandon Sproat, Nolan McLean, and Jonah Tong—and what their continued growth could mean for a rotation in transition. Keith offers sharp in sight on Vientos' long-term potential, and how Soto's arrival has redefined the team's competitive identity. We close by revisiting a landmark moment in franchise history—the retirement of David Wright's No. 5—and hearing Keith's reflections on what that night symbolized for the organization and for a fanbase that still sees Wright as its moral compass. Finally, Keith shares what it means to be the voice behind a franchise now firmly entering the Juan Soto era, and what he hopes to deliver to Mets fans in 2026 and beyond. This is one episode you won't want to miss. Grab your headphones, settle in, and enjoy a conversation that captures the emotion, intelligence, and future of Mets baseball—right here on Tablesetters, where every inning tells a story and every pitch sets the stage for the game's greatest moments. And don't forget to follow us on Instagram and Twitter @tablesetterspod for exclusive updates, behind-the-scenes content, and interactive fan polls. We want to hear from you!

Growing In God Podcast Program Number: GIG #276 Title:  Renewing Our Minds     Web Description: When we get into spiritual warfare, we tend to become focused on things outside of us. But it is actually an internal battle that takes place in our minds. We are fighting a battle against mental speculations that attack the knowledge of God and draw our focus away from Him. Let us bring our focus back on Christ the King and enforce His victory with the divinely powered weapons He has given us.   Show Notes: The practice of building a booth, or sukkah, at the Feast of Tabernacles (Sukkoth) involves leaving the roof open. And we can draw a lesson from the fact that in our sukkah, we are not looking out; we are looking up. Instead of a focus that looks out on everything happening in the world, we are to be training our minds to focus on the Lord. This principle applies directly to our concept of spiritual warfare. The battle for our focus is not happening outside of ourselves. It is taking place in our own minds.   According to 2 Corinthians, the weapons of our warfare are powerful to the pulling down of strongholds. We are destroying speculations and taking every thought captive in obedience to Christ. We are warring against strongholds. But those strongholds are not separate from us. They are strongholds built from the speculations and thought processes of our minds. These speculations of the human mind are what raise themselves up against the knowledge of God, against the truth of God, and against Christ. Our warfare is with the thoughts of our own minds and the things within ourselves on a human level.   In our society today we see many who are embracing twisted ideologies and belief systems that literally claim that truth is a lie, and the lie is truth. These belief systems have become a stronghold like a fortress or a walled city that seems impossible to break through. We need to believe and exercise our powerful and effective spiritual weapons that are able to destroy these speculations that war against the knowledge of God within us. These weapons are divinely powerful because they come from God, and we fight this war effectively by keeping our minds focused on Him.   Key Verses:   •       2 Corinthians 10:3–7. "We are destroying speculations and every lofty thing raised up against the knowledge of God." •       Romans 12:2. "Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind." •       1 Corinthians 2:16. "We have the mind of Christ." •       2 Corinthians 5:17. "If anyone is in Christ, he is a new creature; the old things passed away; behold, new things have come." •       Hebrews 11:10. "He was looking for the city which has foundations, whose architect and builder is God." •       Psalm 2:1–8. "As for Me, I have installed My King upon Zion." •       Psalm 96:10–11. "Say among the nations, 'The LORD reigns.'"   Quotes:   •       "When our minds develop these speculations and then coalesce those speculations into a belief system, all of a sudden we realize that these things are fortresses that are absolutely against what God is trying to say." •       "I don't need to argue with you about all of your morality and all of your philosophy and all of your theology. I just need to tell you one thing: Christ reigns. He reigns as Lord Supreme. He reigns as King of kings and Lord of lords." •       "We can either be aware of the battle, or we can be aware of the fact that the battle is already won."   Takeaways:   1.    The weapons of our warfare are for destroying speculations and every lofty thing raised up against the knowledge of God. A speculation is a thought process, and we need to see that spiritual warfare is a battle that takes place in our minds. 2.    Speculations and belief systems of the fleshly mind become a fortress, and we cannot fight that on a fleshly level. We must use the spiritual weapons that are divinely powerful for the destruction of fortresses. 3.    We need to change our focus. We need to take our focus off the world and put it back on the Lord so that our minds are stayed in Him, and we are bringing His divine presence constantly in our thoughts.

Cristiano Ronaldo BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Cristiano Ronaldo remains firmly in the world's spotlight after he confirmed on CNN with Becky Anderson and echoed across CBS News and Hindustan Times that the 2026 FIFA World Cup will definitely be his last. Ronaldo said he is “really enjoying the moment” and emphasized he still feels sharp at 40, but conceded that “in one, two years” he'll finish his professional journey, drawing “the final major chapter” of one of football's greatest living legends. For biographical history, this marks the most explicit retirement statement he has made, as he prepares for what would be a record sixth World Cup, pending Portugal's qualification. In his remarks at the Tourism Summit in Riyadh, he stated, “Definitely, yes. I will be 41 years old and I think this will be the moment in the big competition,” and he also teased his openness to support the sport and develop football in both Portugal and Saudi Arabia after retirement, underscoring his lasting influence on the global game.Current business affairs see Ronaldo still based in Saudi Arabia with Al Nassr, where he continues his quest for the almost mythic individual milestone of 1000 career goals—his 953rd was scored just a few days ago according to World Soccer Talk, and he marked the moment on social media with an inspiring four-word message: “Stay focused. Stay humble.” This goal chase remains one of the most closely tracked sports stories worldwide, and would cement his legacy even further. Social media buzzed as well for personal reasons: Ronaldo shared birthday wishes to his daughter Alana Martina as she turned eight, offering a rare personal moment that resonated across Instagram and Twitter, with fans celebrating both his on-field achievements and dedication as a father—Sportskeeda picked up on the widespread reactions.Headlines in recent days focus nearly exclusively on his 2026 World Cup announcement, with outlets such as ABS-CBN, GBC Ghana, and Agence France-Presse repeating his “definitely my last World Cup” promise, amplifying both sporting and mainstream coverage. There have been no credible reports of new endorsement deals, controversies, or significant business activities in the last week—his brand remains rock steady as sponsors and markets prepare for what will likely be a global farewell tour.Speculation about a possible “farewell match” or legacy project is swirling in some fan circles, but nothing has been confirmed by either Ronaldo or his representatives.

Jo Jo Siwa BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.JoJo Siwa is firmly back in the limelight this week with multiple major headlines and public appearances ensuring she remains a focal point in the entertainment world. The biggest story is her glamorous red carpet debut with new boyfriend Chris Hughes, best known from Love Island UK, a relationship that began during their stint together on Celebrity Big Brother UK earlier this year. AOL reports that the couple appeared arm-in-arm, putting months of speculation to rest and transforming an unlikely reality TV pairing into one of the buzziest romances of 2025. JoJo's own social channels amplified their relationship status as Chris posted cuddly photos—one bed selfie showing a cozy embrace—and both leaned into the online chatter and fan speculation about their future together.A viral moment erupted just days ago when JoJo addressed pregnancy rumors. After a TikTok of Chris rubbing JoJo's belly went viral, Siwa deftly diffused the rumors by incorporating them into a playful Two Truths and a Lie challenge, stating she's not pregnant but capitalizing on the attention to plug her new “Bette Davis Eyes” cover. According to People and AOL, JoJo laughed off the gossip while fueling more interest in her music, a savvy PR move as her mature rebranding continues to generate intrigue and engagement, with her followers reacting in droves.Music and business remain central to her year. BoredPanda and Forbes report that JoJo's net worth now totals 20 million dollars, thanks to over 1 billion global music streams, a still-booming merchandise empire—especially her signature hair bows, grossing 400 million dollars overall—and steady reality TV exposure. Instagram engagement for her 11.3 million followers is steady, with average likes around 18,500 per post, though recent growth has been slow according to HypeAuditor. Still, each appearance, like her third-place Big Brother UK finish, brings fresh followers and reinforces her brand status.JoJo's business acumen also made news this week: she recently sold her Tarzana mansion for a 670,000 dollar profit, showing the kind of financial moves one expects from a mogul in her early twenties. Entertainment Tonight covered her lavish spending, such as a new Lamborghini Urus to celebrate her single “Karma.” Sightings of her with Chris and social media posts keep fans hooked, while her podcast appearances make headlines for candid, sometimes NSFW admissions, like a recent viral reveal on Unilad.Speculation continues about how her evolving image—from punk for “Karma” to the upmarket “tradwife” vibe in her latest single—will impact future sponsorships or mainstream acceptability, but JoJo shows no signs of retreating from public view. She has promised more new music for 2025 and shows remarkable control over her rapidly diversifying empire, demonstrating both the risk-taking flair of a seasoned entrepreneur and the headline magnetism of a pop culture fixture who refuses to be typecast.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOtaThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI

With the mayor's race decided and 2026 election moves just beginning, the FAQ NYC hosts talk about the Council Speaker's race that drew lots of attention at Somos, where Gov. Kathy Hochul got hit with another chant of "tax the rich!" There are only 51 votes that count in a closed-door campaign where the narrative question is whether the Council wants to speed up, or slow down, a Mayor Mamdani and his agenda next year. It's a contest that he's yet to publicly weigh in on. The practical question, though, is simply which candidate in a race — where the frontrunners appear to be Crystal Hudson and Julie Menin — can get enough votes to claim the big prize, and the nice office. This episode was hosted by Christina Greer, Katie Honan and Harry Siegel, and engineered by Noah Smith.

It's a packed Monday on Nothing Major. The guys kick things off with the upcoming Battle of the Sexes in Dubai — plenty of curiosity (and a little doubt) about how seriously Kyrgios will take it. Djokovic's 101st career title takes center stage next, with the crew debating his decision to skip the year-end finals and what it means for the tour. There's also a shoutout to Learner Tien's title run in Metz and Venus Williams grabbing a wildcard into Auckland at 45 — still swinging. Then it's time for an ATP Finals breakdown, as we all agree one group is stronger than the other. On the WTA side, Elena Rybakina caps her season with record prize money and a clear message for 2026. To wrap things up, two teases you don't want to miss: Maldives Watch and the mission to help Danielle Collins find a husband. ----------------- 00:00 Intro 00:36 Battle of the Sexes: Sabalenka vs. Kyrgios 03:15 Novak Djokovic's Home Victory 09:35 Learner Tien's Breakthrough Year 14:19 Venus Williams' Wild Card Entry 14:52 Speculations on Player Participation 15:33 Breaking News: Sebastian Korda's Engagement 15:38 ATP Finals Overview 16:07 Shelton vs. Zverev Match Analysis 18:27 Alcaraz's Performance at ATP Finals 21:57 WTA Finals Recap 25:42 Upcoming Topics and Teasers 27:45 Goodbye!

Property investment has entered dangerous new territory. What used to be about building long-term wealth has become clouded by hype, shortcuts, and unqualified advice. Investors are being drawn into speculative schemes disguised as strategy. In this episode, Veronica and Chris sit down with Ben Kingsley, Founding Managing Director of Empower Wealth and Chair of the Property Investors Council of Australia (PICA), to unpack the alarming resurgence of speculative, misleading, and unlicensed property advice spreading across Australia.Ben recently authored an open letter to industry associations, warning of “get-rich-quick” operators, social media influencers, and unqualified advisors encouraging investors to buy properties through risky trust structures and self-managed super funds. He reveals how these practices are distorting regional markets, luring naive investors, and potentially triggering a regulatory backlash that could reshape the entire property sector.From “pump and dump” tactics to trust lending loopholes and the rise of volume-driven buyer's agents buying sight unseen, this conversation exposes the systemic risks emerging from the unregulated fringes of the industry. Ben, Veronica, and Chris also explore how social media hype, FOMO marketing, and easy credit are fueling another wave of short-term speculation that could end in disaster.If you care about the future of Australia's property market—or just want to protect yourself from being swept up in the next boom-and-bust cycle—this is an episode you can't afford to miss.Episode Highlights00:00 — Why Risky Property Advice Is Back on the Rise01:36 — Speculative Behaviour: The Return of Fast-Money Mindsets02:25 — How Speculation Threatens Consumers and Market Stability03:59 — Unlicensed Advisors and the Power of Social Media Influence06:14 — Regional Market Distortions: When Buyer's Agents Go Rogue08:21 — Will ASIC Step In?

We sit down with healthcare M&A specialist Nathan Atkinson to map the moving parts around business asset disposal relief, how the dental deals market heats up ahead of Christmas, and what smart owners can do today to protect value tomorrow. If you've wondered whether to push for a pre-Budget completion or wait for clarity, this conversation gives you the practical lens you need.We start with the basics: why BADR rate moves influence deal timing and how buyers behave when sellers feel a deadline. Nathan explains the year-end rush, solicitor bottlenecks, and why a lively market doesn't automatically equal bargain prices. From there we explore what's known versus unknown in the policy pipeline, including the risk of further capital gains tax changes and shifts to employer national insurance that could squeeze larger practices and corporates.The heart of the episode focuses on fundamentals that outlast Budget cycles. Many NHS-reliant practices are seeing higher turnover without better margins, thanks to cost creep and payroll pressures. We talk through how buyers read those numbers, why EBITDA quality drives valuation, and the practical steps owners can take to shore up margins, trim admin costs, and present clean, consistent accounts. Nathan's core message is simple: plan earlier than feels comfortable. Five to eight years out is not too soon to optimise share structures, align partners, formalise associate agreements, and build a documentation trail that speeds diligence.———————————————————————Disclaimer: All content on this channel is for education purposes only and does not constitute an investment recommendation or individual financial advice.

Welcome to The Chopping Block — where crypto insiders Haseeb Qureshi, Tom Schmidt, Tarun Chitra, and Robert Leshner chop it up about the latest in crypto. This week, the crew breaks down DeFi's Black Friday: a brutal week that saw the $120 million Balancer v2 hack, the collapse of Stream Finance, and a market-wide panic that reminded everyone — nothing in crypto is risk-free. They dive into how one of DeFi's oldest, most audited contracts failed, why smaller chains froze or rolled back transactions, and what it means for decentralization as Berachain, Sonic, and Polygon took emergency action. The panel debates whether the Balancer attacker used an AI “vibe-coded” exploit, how Ethereum might one day face its own rollback dilemma, and why privacy chains like Zcash may be the last true cypherpunk strongholds. In the second half, they unpack the off-chain losses behind Stream Finance's XUSD blow-up, the contagion risk across Euler, Silo, and Morpho, and the hard lessons for “yield-chasing” DeFi vaults. The gang closes with advice for founders weathering the storm — from Tarun's “cockroach mindset” to Haseeb's reminder that crypto's long-term fundamentals haven't changed. Whether you're building in DeFi, securing smart contracts, or surviving the next credit unwind, this episode lays bare the harsh truths — and enduring resilience — of crypto's frontier markets.

In this episode, we are joined by Richard Bernstein, CIO and CEO of Richard Bernstein Advisors. We discuss why this is one of the most speculative market environments he has seen in his 40-year career, why he still believes it may also be one of the best eras for patient long-term investors, and how to think about the real opportunities hiding beneath the market's current narrow leadership.

PREVIEW. Tariff Impact Absorbed by Corporate Pandemic Profits. Elizabeth Peek recounts the Wall Street Journal's speculation that new tariffs have not yet damaged the American economy because big companies are absorbing the costs. This absorption is possible because these companies already "fattened their margins" by jacking up prices during the pandemic. Companies are also rapidly sourcing imports from places less impacted by tariffs.

Here it is, the finale to the wild life of Margaret Pole, Countess of Salisbury and last great Plantagenet. What a rollercoaster it's been. We jump back into Henry VIII's chaos: Catherine of Aragon cast aside, Anne Boleyn crowned (and gone), Thomas Cromwell on the rise, and our fiercely Catholic Margaret trying to keep her head We follow Reginald Pole's “turbo treason” across Europe and watch as the Exeter Conspiracy brings down Margaret and her family. From skipped coronations and pointed petitions to house arrest and the Tower, we unpack how a 60-something noblewoman became the poster child for Tudor paranoia, and why her 1541 execution by bill of attainder stunned Europe.

2. Washington, Land Speculation, and the Heart of American Darkness Professor Robert G. Parkinson, Heart of American Darkness: Bewilderment and Horror on the Early Frontier This section explores the theme of "bewilderment" on the American frontier, drawing parallels to Joseph Conrad's Heart of Darkness. The conversation notes the intense confusion and tribal conflicts involving colonials, Native Americans, the French, and the British. A key focus is George Washington's role as a land speculator and partner in the Ohio Company. The company sought vast lands near the Forks of the Ohio (Pittsburgh). The Cresap family patriarch, Thomas Cresap, and his oldest son, Daniel, were original partners, making the Cresaps well-known to Washington and integral to the colonial advance that escalated tensions with the French.
