Bobby and Alex are back with a bonus episode discussing part one of HBO's 'Alex vs. ARod,' a three-part documentary series chronicling the rise, fall, and redemption of the main character of the podcast: Alex Rodriguez. They react to the first episode, discussing the trove of archival footage that the documentary is pulling from. Then, they're joined by the director and writer or the docuseries, Gotham Chopra and Erik LeDrew, to discuss the filmmaking process, the way that their subject code switched between Alex and ARod, creative control, and more.Links:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Join the Tipping Pitches Patreon ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Tipping Pitches merchandise ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Call the Tipping Pitches voicemail: 785-422-5881Tipping Pitches features original music from Steve Sladkowski of PUP.

Some people think that physical intimacy before marriage is acceptable because marriage is "just a formality". Marriage isn't just a formality, it's a public declaration of the covenant you're making. Statistics bear out that those who have sex before marriage are far more likely to divorce.Donate to Moody Radio: http://moodyradio.org/donateto/lovelanguageminuteSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

I think you'll agree that sharing your faith is one of the most difficult things about being a Christian. Statistics show that a majority of Christians never lead another person to Jesus Christ. One reason we're sometimes reluctant to share is the chance of being persecuted. That was the risk Paul and Barnabas faced in Acts thirteen. How did they respond? Let's find out.

The 2025 Elections are behind us now! After Tuesday's election in New Jersey, NYC, Virginia, Pennsylvania, and California, the results send some shocking realities to the White House and other national leaders: Americans are NOT as concerned about criminality and illegal immigration as they were previously. We wade into those details, how they happened, and what will happen in the aftermath.Today's show is full of details that shocked some and worried many. The GOP faces some "must-do" things to prepare for the midterm elections next November. And with Mandami winning the mayor's job in NYC, socialism has been given a formal invitation to invade the U.S. government.Voting and numbers have proven an unfathomable number of wealthy Americans are rushing from New York and California to "get out of Dodge." Statistics show that the wealthiest of Americans and even those from the MIddle Class are rushing to Florida, Texas, North and South Carolina, to get away from egregious governing ideology that is taking over a large part of the Democrat Party.

Researchers from Trinity and the ADAPT Research Ireland Centre for AI-Driven Digital Content Technology are leading a newly funded project to transform how AI is integrated into mobile and wireless communication systems. The NAIRA project (Native AI for Energy Efficient and Sustainable Radio Access Networks) is a pioneering initiative that envisions a new generation of intelligent, energy-aware networks capable of learning, adapting, and optimising themselves in real time. At its core, NAIRA seeks to embed AI natively within the very architecture of the Radio Access Network (RAN), moving beyond traditional approaches where AI operates as an external optimisation tool. This shift introduces Agentic AI, a new class of autonomous, goal-driven agents that can make local and collective decisions across the network. By doing so, NAIRA will enable networks that can autonomously reconfigure and optimise, while dynamically balancing energy efficiency, service quality, and operational cost. The three-year project, funded for €2.5 million via Call 7 of the Disruptive Technologies Innovation Fund (DTIF), will be coordinated by Prof. Marco Ruffini from Trinity's School of Computer Science and Statistics and ADAPT, and his co-PI, Dr Merim Dzaferagic. Industry partners include Dell Technologies, Red Hat Ltd., Intel Research and Development Ireland Ltd., Software Research Systems Ltd., and Tyndall National Institute. Prof. Marco Ruffini said: "NAIRA responds to the rapidly growing energy consumption of communication infrastructures, which is one of the most pressing global challenges - both from a logistical and sustainability perspective." "As data traffic continues to rise and connectivity becomes ubiquitous, mobile networks have emerged as a major source of energy demand within the ICT sector. NAIRA will address this issue by combining the latest innovations in AI, distributed intelligence, and Open RAN architectures to deliver a sustainable, high-performance framework for the networks of the future." Dr Merim Dzaferagic added: "By enabling intelligent collaboration among network components and continuous learning at the edge, NAIRA will demonstrate how artificial intelligence can be harnessed to drastically reduce energy use without compromising connectivity or user experience." "Its outcomes will contribute directly to Europe's green and digital transitions, setting the stage for AI-native 6G systems that are both sustainable and self-evolving." NAIRA was announced last week, along with another five newly funded DTIF projects, by Peter Burke, Minister for Enterprise, Tourism and Employment, and James Lawless, Minister for Further and Higher Education, Research, Innovation and Science. Jenny Melia, CEO, Enterprise Ireland, said: "The latest tranche of DTIF funding is an important solution for Enterprise Ireland clients in supporting them to transform and underpin their ability to scale, extend their global reach and create high-quality jobs. It is exciting to see high-potential start-ups (HPSUs) leading the development of disruptive technologies in areas such as transport logistics and quantum computing, and collaborating with established multinational companies and research institutions."

What do we know about the levels of sexual harassment on public transport? Statistics show that a third of women and girls have experienced it and 97% of women fear it could happen to them, but is the problem getting worse, and who is at fault? Author of Mind the Gender Gap and Lecturer in Criminology at the University of Plymouth, Dr Sian Lewis, breaks down the data.

Losing a spouse can shake every part of life—but God promises to walk with you through each next step.When loss turns life upside down, even simple financial decisions can feel overwhelming. But with God's help—and a few practical steps forward—there is hope and healing ahead. Today, Valerie Hogan joins us to share guidance for navigating the financial journey after losing a spouse.Valerie Hogan is an attorney, a Certified Financial Planner (CFP®), a member of Kingdom Advisors, and the co-author of Wise Women Managing Money: Expert Advice on Debt, Wealth, Budgeting, and More with Miriam Neff. Grief and Finances Are Deeply ConnectedWhen grief hits, clarity often disappears. You may feel pressure to “get everything settled” or, on the other hand, find it impossible to make even small decisions. Both reactions are normal.Grief colors everything. It's difficult to separate financial choices from emotional pain. And that's okay. The key is to give yourself permission not to have all the answers right away.Statistics show that about 80% of women will outlive their husbands. That means most of us will one day find ourselves managing finances alone. And many women, especially from earlier generations, weren't as involved in financial decisions during marriage.After loss, that reality can be intimidating. Suddenly, you're faced with choices about investments, taxes, home maintenance, and budgets—often with less income and more years of life ahead. Those early months matter, but they shouldn't be rushed.Start with This Truth: God Owns It AllBefore any practical steps, I want to anchor you in a truth that has carried me and countless others through difficult seasons: God owns it all.Everything we have belongs to Him, and He is with us as we steward it. Remembering that doesn't erase the pain, but it reminds us we're not alone. It shifts the weight of control off our shoulders and invites God's wisdom into our decisions.That truth gives us permission to move slowly and prayerfully. Stewardship is not about perfection—it's about trust.Steps for Navigating the Early DaysHere are some guiding steps I often share with widows who ask, “Where do I even begin?”1. Take One Step at a TimeYou don't need to fix everything today. Unless a change is absolutely urgent, give yourself space to rest and recover. Grief has a way of making even simple tasks feel monumental. Be patient with yourself.2. Avoid Major Financial Moves Too SoonTry not to make significant financial decisions while emotions are raw. Some women have sold homes, moved away, or invested large sums during intense grief—only to regret it later. Wait until your heart is steadier before making big changes.3. Get Organized, Little by LittleLoss often leaves behind a mountain of paperwork. Start small—maybe one pile, one folder, one hour. Ask a trusted friend or advisor to help if it feels overwhelming. Progress comes one decision at a time.4. Track What's Coming In and Going OutAwareness brings peace. You don't have to overhaul your budget immediately—just begin noticing where money is going. Clarity grows with consistency.5. Lean on Trusted AdvisorsChoose people who will look out for your best interest—those with integrity and experience, not pressure or sales motives. A trusted financial planner, attorney, or advisor can help you think clearly when emotions run high.6. Anchor Everything in PrayerThis is the most important step. God cares deeply when His people are hurting. Invite Him into every conversation, every decision, every bill you open. He is your provider and your comforter.Build a “Personal Board of Directors”Form a personal board of directors—a small circle of wise people you can lean on for different kinds of counsel.You might include:A spiritually mature friend who prays with youA financial professional with integrityAn encourager who helps you stay hopefulA practical helper who can sit with you through paperworkEach one brings something valuable. Just remember: not every encourager is a financial guide, and not every advisor is a prayer partner. Surround yourself with a balanced mix of wisdom and compassion.Know It. Own It. Like It. Change It.In their book Wise Women Managing Money, Miriam Neff and Valerie Neff Hogan use a simple four-part framework that applies beautifully here:Know it—Gather the facts. What do you own? What do you owe?Own it—Accept responsibility for your new role as steward.Like it—Evaluate your current situation honestly.Change it—Begin making small, steady adjustments that align with your goals and faith.You don't need to have it all figured out. Start by knowing where you are—and trust that God will guide each next step.If you've recently lost your spouse, please hear this: there are brighter days ahead. It may not feel that way now, but God will give you strength and wisdom in time. I've seen hundreds of widows rebuild, heal, and even thrive again.Take one step at a time. Pray often. Surround yourself with wise, loving people. And remember—you're not alone.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:A friend once told me they only tip 10% at restaurants, so they don't end up giving a server more than they give to God. Now that's stuck with me—every time I eat out, I think about it. Am I looking at this the wrong way? What's the right, biblical way to think about tipping and giving?I recently set up a trust, and I own two homes—one's paid off and the other still has a mortgage. Both properties are titled in my name. Do I need to transfer or re-deed those homes into the trust, or can I leave them as they are since they're already in my name?Resources Mentioned:Faithful Steward: FaithFi's New Quarterly Magazine (Become a FaithFi Partner)Wise Women Managing Money: Expert Advice on Debt, Wealth, Budgeting, and More by Miriam Neff and Valerie Neff Hogan, J.D. Widow ConnectionWisdom Over Wealth: 12 Lessons from Ecclesiastes on MoneyLook At The Sparrows: A 21-Day Devotional on Financial Fear and AnxietyRich Toward God: A Study on the Parable of the Rich FoolFind a Certified Kingdom Advisor (CKA) or Certified Christian Financial Counselor (CertCFC)FaithFi App Remember, you can call in to ask your questions every workday at (800) 525-7000.

Introduction: In this episode, we are joined by Molly Whiteside, a psychology student at Nottingham Trent University, to discuss her recent research report, "Am I Being Served?" which explores emotional exploitation in the hospitality industry. With lived experience in the field, Molly delves into the prevalence of economic and verbal exploitation, unsafe working conditions, and the lack of psychological safety faced by young employees. We explore the surprising and often shocking findings from her research, which combines quantitative and qualitative data to paint a vivid picture of the challenges faced by 16-25 year olds in the workplace. From unfair pay and a lack of job security to the gendered nature of harassment, this episode uncovers the root causes of these issues and offers practical advice for young people, managers, and the industry as a whole. Show Notes: Welcome and an Unexpected Question (00:09 - 05:25): We welcome Molly Whiteside to the podcast and kick things off with our signature unexpected question: "What kind of person makes a good seat companion on an aeroplane?". The Motivation Behind the Research (05:26 - 07:50): Molly explains what prompted her to research emotional exploitation in the hospitality industry, drawing from her personal experiences and observations of a lack of psychological safety in the workplace. Surprising Findings and Statistics (07:51 - 12:01): We dive into the most surprising findings from Molly's research, including the high prevalence of exploitation, with around 70% of people having experienced some form of it. We also discuss the demographic focus of the survey, which was on 16 to 25-year-olds. Qualitative vs. Quantitative Data (12:02 - 16:25): Molly breaks down the differences between what the numbers and the stories revealed. While quantitative data showed middle-of-the-road satisfaction with treatment, the qualitative data uncovered a wealth of personal experiences, particularly highlighting the different types of exploitation faced by women compared to men. Job Security, Pay, and Communication (16:26 - 19:56): We explore the statistics around job security, with 35% of participants feeling confident they wouldn't be unfairly dismissed, but 10% feeling the complete opposite. Molly also touches on the disconnect between employees feeling comfortable talking to colleagues but not managers. Recommendations for a Better Workplace (19:57 - 23:43): Molly offers actionable recommendations for young people, managers, and the hospitality industry as a whole. For young people, it's about education and knowing your rights. For employers, it's about creating psychological safety and not letting biases control employee treatment. For the industry, it's a call for more robust policies and training, especially in smaller businesses. What's Next for Molly? (23:44 - 26:12): Molly shares her exciting future plans, including her role in the "Women in Business" society, becoming a "Consent is Everything" workshop facilitator, and starting her own podcast aimed at students. Wrapping Up (26:13 - 28:00): We thank Molly for her invaluable contributions to the podcast and her work with us.

“When it comes to kids and families in our community, we don't have to settle for not enough.”National estimates show that, in recent years, roughly 300,000–400,000 children have been involved in the child welfare system at any given time. Statistics like this, while helpful, can sometimes cause us to slip into a scarcity mentality. We may worry that we don't have enough resources to address such a large need. Or, we might assume that if we're not able to take up the role of a foster parent, we don't have a meaningful role to play.Our guest is on a mission to help us understand the truth: that there is more than enough support we can offer to children and families before, during, and after foster care.Jason Weber serves as the national director of More Than Enough for CAFO. He is also a podcast host and author. Jason and his wife, Trisha, have been helping vulnerable families and children for over 29 years, with 10 years spent as foster parents.In this episode, you'll hear why it's important to focus on the statistics in your own backyard, the importance of operating as the unified body of Christ to offer support from every angle, key elements for impactful collaboration, and much more.Find the show notes and links to anything we discussed here: https://riversideproject.org/podcast/jason-weber-43

Climate Migration Is Inevitable: The Global South, the Four Horsemen, and the Necessity of Movement. Gaia Vince's book, Nomad Century: How Climate Migration Will Reshape Our World, examines the statistics warning that the climate of the near future will be dramatically different. Vince emphasizes that climate migration is "very much underway" and inevitable, highlighting the plight of Abel Cruz, a farmer in rural Peru who moved to Lima due to drought but became part of the growing global south slums. The phenomenon of the global south moving north is overwhelming, as the tropics are becoming dangerous and unlivable, compelling people to move to higher latitudes in the northern temperate zone, which are generally wealthier and better equipped to adapt. Vince refers to the primary threats that force movement as the "four horsemen of the Anthropocene": fire, heat, flood, and drought, which destroy livelihoods and property. 1956

Episode Notes:Dr Ho describes an empirical research agenda focused on how security actually operates in organisations. He explains his experience with getting this research off the ground to allow them to perform the research in this setting.Study setting and scope: eight-month randomised controlled trial at UC San Diego Health involving ~19,500 employees and ten distinct phishing campaign lures.Annual awareness training: the study found no significant relationship between how recently staff completed the mandated course and their likelihood of failing a simulated phishing campaign.Embedded training (when someone clicks a phishing simulation and is immediately redirected to training): the measurable improvement was very small (≈2% reduction in failure rate) and varied significantly by lure and engagement.Engagement challenge: The vast majority of embedded-training sessions were extremely short or incomplete, a key factor in explaining limited effect size.Variability of lure difficulty: Some phishing lures elicited very low click-rates (~1.8%) while others up to ~30.8%, indicating that the phishing stimulus matters as much as, or more than, the training intervention.Practical takeaway: Organizations should treat training (especially annually mandated modules) as only one part of a broader defence strategy, and design empirical measurement systems (including controls, realistic lures, and sustained engagement) before assuming large effect sizes.About our Guest:Dr Grant Ho Profile: https://cs.uchicago.edu/people/grant-ho/Papers or resources mentioned in this episode:Ho, G.; Mirian, A.; Luo, E.; Tong, K.; Lee, E.; Liu, L.; Longhurst, C.A.; Dameff, C.; Voelker, G.M.

Ari Ne'eman, doctoral candidate in health policy at Harvard University, says that the numbers demonstrate the extraordinary impact the COVID-19-induced shift to expanded telework had on the employment opportunities for people with disabilities, but even those don't tell the complete story regarding what remote work means for disability employment. It is a situation reflective of the gains prospective employees with disabilities experienced because of the pandemic and the parallel economic recession, Ari Ne'eman, doctoral candidate in health policy at Harvard University, says in this episode. The overnight shift to remote work for much of the general workforce because of the pandemic has made it more difficult for employers to argue that physical presence in the workplace is an essential component in job duties, Ne'eman points out, and this is the essence of how disability employment has benefited from remote work. That deconstruction of the perceived importance of physical presence in the workplace needs to be normalized.

Despite previously reported fears that baseball, unfortunately, was over, the Toronto Blue Jays are merely one win away from reviving the sport. Behind an unprecedented start from Trey Yesavage and stellar performances up and down their lineup, the Jays (America's Team) have weathered an 18-inning loss and a Yoshi Yamamoto complete game. Will they finish off the super team Dodgers?

The costumes are ready and the annual opportunity to go out and harass your neighbors to get candy is once again upon us. Yes, it's time for Halloween. And along with Halloween comes the worry, the concern the fear that in fact, someone will be poisoning my kid's candy. This is something that has lived with us for decades and we have someone today that will help us investigate this mystery on this episode of Stats and Short Stories with guest Joel Best. Joel Best is a Professor Of Sociology And Criminal Justice At The University Of Delaware. His writing focuses on understanding how and why we become concerned with particular issues at particular moments in time–why we find ourselves worried about road rage one year, and identity theft a year or so later. He's written about the ways bad statistics creep into public debates, and about dubious fears, such as the mistaken belief that poisoned Halloween candy poses a serious threat to our kids.

主播：Flora（中国）+ Maelle（法国） 音乐：Comfortable今天我们要探讨一个非常有趣的话题，那就是当前饮酒文化（alcohol culture）的一个全球趋势（a trend around the world）。01. A Review of France's Drinking Culture 法国饮酒文化回顾��法国的饮酒文化是怎样的呢？是不是也像中国一样，把它看成一种社交的方式甚至是社交技能呢？In France, alcohol — especially wine — is very embedded in the culture (在文化中根深蒂固).在上一期葡萄酒品酒的节目里，主播Maelle就曾提到过：在法国，人们吃午餐、晚餐的时候可能会小酌一杯，比较casual（随意）。In France, it's not just for parties, but also part of meals, family gatherings (家庭聚餐), and even casual conversations (随意的谈话). It's seen as something sophisticated and almost expected (大家认为很有格调，同时这也已经成为一个约定俗成的习惯了).02. What is “Sober Curious”? 什么“戒酒好奇”？现在的年轻人，他们有一种叫做“sober curious”的说法。More and more young people are starting to ask themselves: what if I just... didn't drink (我不喝酒又能怎样呢)? This is where the “sober curious” movement has kind of been growing.Sober curious：直译是“戒酒好奇”或“戒酒尝试”。它的意思不是绝对不碰酒（not necessarily quitting forever），而是有意识地去思考酒在自己生活中的位置，还有是否需要切断迫于社交压力的饮酒。从字面理解的话，sober curious就是“出于好奇想尝试一下没有酒自己会过得怎么样”。03. Why is This Trend Growing? 为什么“Sober Curious”的趋势在增长？当下的年轻人很“惜命（value their well-being）”。They put emphasis (重视) on mental health (心理健康). They care more about quality of life (生活质量), healthy eating and good sleep. 在这种情况下，他们开始思考：喝酒，还有必要吗？并且，现在生活成本（cost of living）也越来越高了，健康文化（wellness culture）已经成为mainstream（主流）了，不宿醉的清晨（hangover-free mornings）也开始流行了。Hangover是“宿醉”的意思，hangover-free mornings就是“不宿醉的清晨”。Social media is playing a role too — people want to feel and look healthy.04. The Impact of the “Sober Curious” “戒酒好奇”带来的影响After the rise of “sober curious”, nightlife is evolving! 无酒精酒吧（sober bars）、戒酒节（alcohol-free festivals），餐厅还推出了特调无酒精鸡尾酒菜单（mocktail menus at restaurants）。You can stay sober and healthy while still being social — it's just so perfect for young people!之前不喝酒会觉得很难融入、有点不合群，但现在这波年轻人有了一种很强的自我意识和拒绝集体压力的一种精神状态。Being sober is seen as empowered and intentional.Empowered：表示“一种内在的自信和掌控感”。Intentional：“有意识的”，在这里指的是“有自我意识的”。But new things always come with challenges. There's real social pressure (社交压力) to drink. 人们担心自己会被left out（冷落），或者没有酒的派对就不好玩了。 社会留下来的习惯在短时间内很难完全改变。In Europe, especially places like France or the UK, alcohol is very normalized (常态化的，司空见惯的). People start drinking at a younger age, and it's just expected in most social settings (社交场合).但是主播Flora观察发现，她身边的年轻人很少有经常喝酒的了，所以sober curious or non alcohol trend好像是全球统一了。Statistics are showing that heavy drinking (酗酒) is decreasing (减少). 取而代之的是drinking less (少喝) 或者completely stopping (直接不喝)。So the younger generation in both East and West is changing that. 05. Personal Views on Alcohol 两位主播对于“酒”的个人看法��主播Maelle：She personally doesn't drink alcohol anymore. She likes dancing and going out once a while with friends. 在聚会上也她也能轻松跳过喝酒环节 (skip the drinking part)。因为梅莉不喝酒，所以她就成了那个designated driver（特定的司机），专门负责送朋友回家。��主播Flora：For sort of alcohol curiosity (出于对酒的好奇), she has actually tried beer and wine before. But after a few tries, she realized they're really not as good as people say. 她对酒的味道（the taste of alcohol）并不“感冒”，所以在那之后她就没再尝试过了。幸运的是，她的朋友也不喝酒，所以她没有什么“社交压力”。Being “sober curious” also can make us reflect: What do I actually enjoy? 哪个部分只是习惯或迫于压力（What part is just habit or pressure? ）？不管你是否喝酒，重要的是你的选择、你的想法，所以去做你觉得真正对的事情吧！

October is National Domestic Violence Awareness Month. Statistics indicate that approximately 1 in 3 women and 1 in 4 men will experience domestic violence in their lifetime. Every minute in the U.S., about 20 to 24 people are physically abused by an intimate partner, amounting to more than 12 million individuals each year. Domestic violence also impacts millions of children, and the economic toll is substantial, resulting in nearly 8 million lost workdays annually in the U.S.  Our guest today, June Sheehan Berlinger, RN, has authored a powerful account of her personal experience with domestic violence in her book, "Rising Above the Trauma of Abuse." June is a nationally recognized expert on this issue, and her dual perspective makes her book both deeply personal and practical. Given the prevalence of this social issue, along with the secrecy and stigma that often surround those affected, many victims suffer in silence. June urges us to speak out and take a stand against all forms of domestic violence. By doing so, you could help save a life.Special Guest: June Berlinger, Author and Domestic Abuse Advocate June Sheehan Berlinger, BSN, is a survivor, mother, nurse, writer, and public speaker. She dedicated her career to helping women. June served on Florida's Governor's Domestic and Sexual Violence Task Force from 1994–1997 and directed The Women's Center at Tallahassee Memorial HealthCare for 14 years. Her pioneering work includes developing Florida's first hospital protocol for domestic violence and FIRST STEP, a victim handbook that was distributed statewide. A four-time published author, June has trained health and mental healthcare professionals, law enforcement, and legal teams across the U.S. She lives with her husband, Tom in Denver, CO.

China's industrial profits grew at its fastest pace in nearly two years in September, official data showed on Monday, as policy measures to rein in rat-race competition helped ease pressure on manufacturers despite lingering domestic and external headwinds.官方数据于周一显示，尽管国内外不利因素仍存，但随着遏制无序竞争的政策措施帮助缓解了制造商的压力，9月中国工业利润增速达到近两年来的最高水平。Analysts attributed the rebound in corporate profitability to firmer prices and resilient industrial output, supported by Beijing's pro-growth policies, pointing to a stabilizing economy buoyed by the strong performance of the new quality productive forces.分析师认为，在国家稳增长政策的支撑下，产品价格趋稳以及工业产出保持韧性，推动了企业盈利能力的回升。他们指出，得益于新质生产力的良好发展态势，中国经济正趋于稳定。Looking ahead, they expect the recovery momentum to extend into the fourth quarter, with policymakers likely to intensify countercyclical adjustments to boost domestic demand, spur market confidence and reinforce internal growth drivers — keeping China on track to meet its full-year growth target.展望未来，分析师预计复苏势头将延续至第四季度。政策制定者可能会加大逆周期调节力度，以扩大内需、提振市场信心并强化内生增长动力，确保中国能够实现全年经济增长目标。China's industrial enterprises with an annual revenue of at least 20 million yuan ($2.8 million) saw their total profits soar 21.6 percent year-on-year in September, following a 20.4 percent jump in August, marking the largest gain since November 2023, data from the National Bureau of Statistics showed on Monday.国家统计局周一发布的数据显示，9月，年营业收入2000万元（约合280万美元）及以上的中国工业企业，其实现利润总额同比激增21.6%；8月该指标同比增幅为20.4%。这意味着9月工业利润增幅创下2023年11月以来的最高纪录。During the first nine months of the year, profits at major industrial companies grew to 5.37 trillion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 3.2 percent, following a 0.9 percent rise in the first eight months.今年前9个月，规模以上工业企业实现利润5.37万亿元，同比增长3.2%；前8个月该指标同比增幅为0.9%。Wen Bin, chief economist at China Minsheng Bank, said: "The strong growth in September's industrial profits was largely driven by a low base from last year, combined with stabilizing production, easing price pressures and improving profit margins."中国民生银行首席经济学家温彬表示：“9月工业利润的强劲增长，很大程度上得益于去年同期的低基数效应，同时也受到生产企稳、价格压力缓解以及利润率改善等因素的综合推动。”NBS data showed China's industrial output surged 6.5 percent year-on-year in September after a 5.2 percent rise in August, marking the first acceleration in three months.国家统计局数据显示，9月中国工业增加值同比增长6.5%，较8月的5.2%有所提升，这是该指标近三个月来首次出现增速加快。Meanwhile, China's producer price index — which measures factory-gate prices — fell 2.3 percent year-on-year in September, easing from a 2.9 percent drop in August.与此同时，9月中国工业品出厂价格指数（PPI，衡量工厂端产品价格水平）同比下降2.3%，降幅较8月的2.9%有所收窄。Wen also noted that "structural bright spots are a key part of the rebound in corporate profitability", underpinned by the robust performance of high-tech manufacturing and equipment manufacturing sectors.温彬还指出，“结构性亮点是企业盈利能力回升的关键因素”，而高新技术制造业和装备制造业的强劲表现为这一亮点提供了支撑。According to the NBS, profits in high-tech manufacturing industries surged 26.8 percent in September, driving overall industrial profit growth to accelerate by 6.1 percentage points.国家统计局数据显示，9月高新技术制造业利润同比激增26.8%，拉动全部工业利润增速加快6.1个百分点。For the first nine months, profits in equipment manufacturing industries soared 9.4 percent, contributing 3.4 percentage points to overall profit growth.今年前9个月，装备制造业利润同比大幅增长9.4%，对全部工业利润增长的贡献率达到3.4个百分点。Citing the faster profit growth among private sector and foreign companies, Wen said that it indicates market expectations are improving, and business confidence is recovering.温彬提到，私营企业和外资企业利润增速加快，这表明市场预期正在改善，企业信心逐步恢复。Looking ahead, he said the fourth quarter will likely see steady growth in industrial profits with the government's effective measures to curb involution competition, easing price pressures and improving corporate profitability.他表示，展望未来，随着政府采取有效措施遏制行业内卷、价格压力进一步缓解以及企业盈利能力持续改善，第四季度工业利润有望保持稳定增长。In the communique of the fourth plenary session of the 20th Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, which was released on Thursday, policymakers called for "resolutely achieving the economic and social targets set for this year", suggesting they will ensure GDP growth will reach the "around 5 percent" growth target.中共二十届四中全会公报于周四发布，其中政策制定者提出“坚决完成今年经济社会发展目标任务”，这一表述意味着政府将确保国内生产总值（GDP）实现“5%左右”的增长目标。Lu Ting, chief China economist at Nomura, said he expects the country to refocus on short-term growth stability. "Beijing just needs around 4.2 percent GDP growth in the fourth quarter to deliver that target. So, from a statistics perspective, it's easily within reach," he said.野村证券首席中国经济学家陆挺表示，预计中国将重新聚焦短期经济稳定增长。他指出：“要实现全年增长目标，中国第四季度GDP增速只需达到4.2%左右即可。因此，从统计角度来看，这一目标触手可及。”The best strategy is to resist the temptation to fuel the stock markets by avoiding too high-profile monetary measures in the near term, remaining vigilant by avoiding contractionary policies, cleaning up the property market problem, and addressing some deep-rooted problems such as the unequal social security system, Lu said.陆挺认为，当前最佳策略是：短期内避免推出过于高调的货币政策，抵制刺激股市的诱惑；保持警惕，不采取紧缩性政策；着力解决房地产市场问题；并应对一些深层次问题，如社会保障体系不均衡等。A report released by the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences' Institute of Finance & Banking on Monday noted that insufficient effective demand remains a prominent challenge.中国社会科学院金融研究所周一发布的一份报告指出，有效需求不足仍是当前面临的突出挑战。Against the backdrop of US-China trade friction and profound structural economic shifts, the report said China should advance macroeconomic governance system innovation that addresses both existing structures and new growth drivers, with a focus on enhancing policy efficacy.报告称，在美国对华贸易摩擦以及国内经济结构性深刻调整的背景下，中国应推进兼顾现有结构与新增动力的宏观经济治理体系改革，并重点提升政策实施效果。"In the short term, macro policies should be proactively strengthened, including more forceful fiscal spending tilted toward consumption stimulation, utilizing the room for interest rate cuts and reserve requirement ratio reductions created by the US Federal Reserve's move, and implementing multi-pronged measures to stabilize the property market and foster its high-quality development," said Wang Qing, assistant researcher at the institute.该研究所助理研究员王青（音译）表示：“短期内，应积极加大宏观政策力度，包括采取更有力的财政支出措施并向刺激消费倾斜、利用美联储政策调整所带来的降息降准空间，以及通过多方面举措稳定房地产市场、推动其高质量发展。”resilient/rɪˈzɪliənt/adj.能快速恢复的，具韧性的countercyclical/ˌkaʊntəˈsaɪklɪkl/adj.反经济周期的

The Utah State Board of Education revealed that public school enrollment has dipped for the third consecutive year. This aligns with nationwide trends, including lower birth rates and increased school choice. Aaron Brough, Director of Data and Statistics with the Utah State Board of Education, discusses these numbers and what that means for public education in the future if these numbers keep declining.

The Chafez Haim writes that one of the main determinants of the greatness of a person in this world is the way he responds to how Hashem deals with him. In our generation, we have people who have become truly great through the emunah that they have learned and applied in their lives. One woman, who has been in shidduchim for about fifteen years, shared how much strength and courage emunah has given her. What inspires her most are not only stories of miraculous endings, but the journeys of ordinary people who still don't know how things will turn out — and yet, again and again, they choose the path of emunah over despair. Some face major crises, others the struggles of daily life, but they all summon the courage, often with superhuman effort, to choose emunah no matter what. She explained that the endings are secondary. It is the journey and the choices made before the yeshua that give her strength. The emunah that she has learned over the years has not only enabled her to get through each day, but to grow, and even soar, through her nisyonot because of the lessons she has absorbed. She knows that throughout the experience she is accomplishing something every day in her avodat Hashem. While in shidduchim, she feels that the world pushes hard against her to make her despair, but her emunah has saved her emotionally, psychologically, and spiritually. It has preserved her self-esteem and allowed her to face what can sometimes be a humiliating process with dignity and grace. She always reminds herself that she is loved by Hashem, that she is a special neshamah, and that her perfect zivug is waiting to be revealed at the right time. She related a very difficult conversation with a rabbi who had suggested a shidduch for her. After one date, she felt absolute clarity that the boy was not for her, and she declined to continue. Her decision was thoughtful and sincere, not frivolous. The rabbi, who truly cared about her, spent an hour and a half urging her to reconsider, questioning her entire approach to dating. He told her that the pool was extremely limited at her age. He explained that despite his best efforts, he could not convince certain boys to go out with her, and he warned her that while emunah and bitachon are central, she must be careful not to be — quote unquote — "foolish." Hearing those words was very painful. Her heart sank many times during the conversation. But the staunch emunah she had built over the last decade enabled her to listen calmly and respond with respect and conviction. She respectfully told the rabbi that she would not allow fear to push her into marrying or dating someone whom she knew was not right for her. She told him that a limited pool means nothing to Hashem. Statistics mean nothing to Hashem. "I only need one zivug," she said. "I am too special to need boys to be convinced to go out with me. If someone doesn't want to date me, that is Hashem's way of saying he is not my match." She told him, "I don't feel my emunah is "foolish", because I know with one hundred percent certainty that Hashem will bring my zivug, and he will be perfect for me, even if he does not look like the package I envisioned. Hashem has been gently guiding my heart and opening my mind for years so that when I do meet him, I will not feel I compromised, but that Hashem has brought two neshamot together at exactly the right time, when we were ready for each other." That night she could not sleep. She cried the entire night. She was confused after hearing such words from a rabbi, but she also felt a closeness to Hashem that she had never experienced before. She almost felt a direct line from her heart to the Kisei HaKavod. She said, "I felt Hashem's presence holding me. I respect the rabbi deeply, but he is not Hashem. Only Hashem is Hashem. To Him, no pool is limited. He could bring my zivug from anywhere, in ways I cannot imagine, because His creativity and solutions are endless. I continue each day to strengthen myself with words of emunah, knowing that my yeshua will come at the right time." Her words are so beautiful. We hope she finds her zivug very soon, but in the meantime she is rising to the highest levels in her avodat Hashem with her unwavering emunah.

In the final baseball game ever played (because the Los Angeles Dodgers have unfortunately ended the sport), the Toronto Blue Jays eliminated the Seattle Mariners on their way to their first World Series in more than three decades. Bobby and Alex live react to the final inning before previewing the impending World Series matchup (which isn't happening because the Dodgers ruined the sport). Then, they discuss the open-and-shut NLCS (the final National League games ever played), which was an unfortunately lopsided affair, which is only natural considering that the Dodgers have ruined baseball.Links:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Join the Tipping Pitches Patreon ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Tipping Pitches merchandise ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Call the Tipping Pitches voicemail: 785-422-5881Tipping Pitches features original music from Steve Sladkowski of PUP.

Send us a textWhat happens when the generation meant to build the future feels like they don't have one?In this raw and deeply personal solo episode, host Lira Ndifon steps out from behind the interview mic to share her own harrowing battle with depression—a journey that stripped her of her identity but ultimately led her to her purpose. But her story is just the beginning. Lira confronts a crisis hiding in plain sight: the staggering rates of mental health struggles among children and teens. Armed with alarming statistics, she reveals that 73 to 74 million children in the US are grappling with mental health issues, yet a devastating 79% receive no support.This isn't just about numbers; it's about the silent suffering behind closed doors, the stigma that keeps young people—especially young men—from speaking up, and the societal pressures contributing to suicide becoming the second leading cause of death for ages 10-34. Lira challenges the silence, arguing that open conversation is not the risk—it's the antidote. She connects the dots between untreated mental health, community violence, and the specific hurdles faced in African and African American communities.This is a must-listen for parents, educators, and anyone who cares about the next generation.
