Are Psychopaths As Dangerous As The Legal System Believes?  For decades, judicial systems in North America have been using formal assessments to identify these psychopathic individuals. Scoring high on these tests can lead to harsher sentencing and exclusion from rehabilitation programs based on the controversial belief that such inmates cannot be changed. However, our expert pushes back against these procedures and discusses what modern research is revealing about psychopathy.  Guest: Rasmus Larsen, forensic epistemologist & assistant professor, University of Toronto, author, Psychopathy UnmaskedHost: Elizabeth WestfieldProducer: Kristen Farrah Male Menopause: How To Combat Your Natural Decline In Testosterone  While menopause is a well-known milestone for women, men experience a similar age-related decline in testosterone often referred to as ‘andropause'. This process typically begins around age 40 and is influenced by both natural aging and various lifestyle factors.

The final hour of Evan & Tiki is packed with chaos, controversy, and classic WFAN storytelling. The guys react to Craig Carton putting Todd Hundley on the spot about steroid allegations from the Mitchell Report — and whether anyone even cares about PED accusations anymore. That sparks a deeper conversation about the Mitchell Report itself, George Mitchell's Epstein connections, and what that means (if anything) for baseball history.

AI in commercial real estate is usually framed around predictions and pricing.   In brief: Underwriting delays come from manual data extraction, not Excel. Institutional CRE teams automate the data layer, not the model. Parsing rent rolls and T12s is now a scale problem, not a staffing one. AI underwriting is being adopted first by lenders and servicers. Speed and consistency are emerging as underwriting risk controls. This Demo Day conversation with Parag Goswami, CEO of Clik.ai, focuses on something more fundamental: how underwriting actually gets done.   The core insight is simple.   The bottleneck in CRE underwriting is not Excel.   It is the manual, error-prone work of pulling data out of PDFs and forcing it into models. Clik.ai does not replace spreadsheets.   It automates everything before the spreadsheet matters by automating the tedious data input to your Excel model and automating it.   That is why its earliest adopters are institutional lenders, servicers, credit teams, and acquisitions pros.   Add to this automated Trepp comparable data and you have a high-value, early underwriting model to screen deals using your own Excel model.   Bottom line Clik.ai eliminates friction in the earliest stage of deal evaluation by automating the grunt work of data inputting giving you faster underwriting and a significant competitive edge.   ***   At GowerCrowd, we are aggressively researching AI tools you can actually use and that bring real, immediate value to your business.

In this episode of Communicable, Navaneeth Narayanan and Josh Nosanchuk invite Virginie Lemiale and Elie Azoulay (Paris, France) as well as fellow editor Emily McDonald (Montreal, Canada)—this time as guest—to discuss adjunctive steroid therapy for pneumocystis pneumonia (PCP) in HIV-negative individuals. In 2025, Lemiale and Azoulay published results from their double-blind, randomised controlled trial investigating steroid treatment for severe Pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia (PIC trial) in the Lancet Respiratory Medicine [1]. At first glance, one might dismiss the study's clinical impact due the ‘negative' result of  the primary outcome, mortality at 28 days, which just missed a statistically significant difference between groups. There was a clinical difference, however, and all other outcomes, including 90-day mortality, were significantly different between groups. Understanding how pivotal these results were to clinical practice, McDonald and colleagues sought to contextualise the results of the PIC trial through a Bayesian analysis in a follow-up publication [2]. While the discussion provides useful clinical commentary, it also helps both to demystify Bayesian analysis and to call attention to what might be lost with strict or overly concrete interpretations of traditional frequentist analyses. This episode was peer reviewed by Arjana Zerja from the Mother Theresa University Hospital Center, Tirana, Albania.ReferencesLemiale V, et al.

🧭 REBEL Rundown 🗝️ Key Points 💉 Hydrocortisone Saves Lives:The 2023 Cape Cod Trial (NEJM) showed a clear mortality benefit and reduced need for intubation in severe CAP patients treated with hydrocortisone.📊 Guidelines Are Catching Up:The SCCM (2024) and ERS now recommend steroids for severe CAP, while ATS/IDSA updates are still pending.🔥 Redefining “Severe”:Patients requiring high FiO₂ (>50%), noninvasive or mechanical ventilation, or PSI >130 meet criteria for steroid therapy — even outside the ICU.🍬 Main Risk = Hyperglycemia:Elevated glucose was the most consistent adverse effect, but rates of GI bleed and secondary infection were not increased.🧭 Early, Targeted Use Matters:Start hydrocortisone within 24 hours of identifying severity — especially in patients with high CRP (>150) or strong inflammatory response. Click here for Direct Download of the Podcast. 📝 Introduction Corticosteroids have long sparked debate in the treatment of bacterial pneumonia — once viewed with skepticism, now increasingly supported by high-quality evidence. In this episode, Dr. Alex Chapa joins the REBEL Core Cast team to explore how the 2023 Cape Cod Trial (NEJM) reshaped practice and guideline recommendations for severe community-acquired pneumonia (CAP). 📖 Historical Context & Long-Standing Skepticism For decades, the use of steroids in pneumonia was controversial.Early Use: Steroids entered practice in the 1940s and 50s for autoimmune inflammation, but there was immediate hesitation regarding secondary superinfections.Mixed Data: From the 1980s to the 2000s, small studies emerged on severe pneumonia and ARDS, but the data was inconsistent. Different trials used varying definitions of “severe” pneumonia and different C-reactive protein (CRP) cutoffs, making the data “spread” and easy to “cherry pick” to support or deny a benefit.Past Guidelines: This uncertainty was reflected in official guidelines:2007 (ATS/IDSA): The American Thoracic Society and the Infectious Diseases Society of America did not address the topic due to insufficient data.2019 (ATS/IDSA): Pre-COVID, the guidelines recommended against using corticosteroids in severe CAP. They acknowledged no benefit for non-severe pneumonia, but the data for severe pneumonia was considered too weak to endorse.Pre-Trial Consensus: Prior to 2023, the consensus was to avoid steroids in non-severe pneumonia, while severe pneumonia remained a “gray area” with no treatment showing a clear mortality difference. 📜 The Landmark Cape Cod Trial (NEJM 2023) The Cape Cod trial, published in the New England Journal of Medicine in 2023, reignited the discussion by providing robust, positive data.Trial Design: Phase 3, multi-center, double-blind, randomized, controlled trial.Intervention: 800 patients randomized to two groups, Hydrocortisone as a continuous infusion (200mg/day) versus a placebo infusion.Taper: On day 4, clinicians would decide whether to continue the infusion or begin a taper based on clinical response.Population: Patients with severe CAP, defined by meeting at least one of the following criteria:Pneumonia Severity Index (PSI) > 130.O2 by FiO2 ratio < 300.Need for mechanical or non-invasive ventilation (with PEEP ≥ 5).Need for high FiO2 (>50%) via non-rebreather or heated high flow.Primary Outcomes: Death for any cause 6.2% (hydrocortisone) vs 11.9% (placebo)Secondary outcomes:Death from any cause at 90 days 9.3% (hydrocortisone) vs 14.7% (placebo)Endotracheal intubation 18% (hydrocortisone) vs 29% (placebo)Hospital-acquired infections 9.8% (hydrocortisone) vs 11.1% (placebo)Gastrointestinal bleeding 2.3% (hydrocortisone) vs 3.3% (placebo)Vasopressor initiation by day 28 15.3% (hydrocortisone) vs 25.0% (placebo)Key Findings: The trial demonstrated superiority for hydrocortisone 📋 Updated Guidelines & Current Practice The Cape Cod trial, along with subsequent meta-analyses, has begun to change official recommendations.Society of Critical Care Medicine (SCCM): In 2024, an SCCM expert panel, reviewing the Cape Cod trial and 18 others, strongly recommended corticosteroids for severe CAP. They concluded that steroids reduce mortality and the need for mechanical ventilation.Meta-Analysis (Smit et al.): A 2024 meta-analysis in Lancet Respiratory confirmed the 30-day mortality benefit.European Respiratory Society (ERS): The ERS has issued a recommendation to use steroids for severe pneumonia but still urges caution regarding side effects.ATS/IDSA: As of the podcast recording, the ATS/IDSA had not yet updated their 2019 guidelines. 🛠️ Practical Application for Clinicians Defining “Severe” CAP: The key is to identify patients who qualify as “severe”. This can be done using:Scoring Tools: The PSI is the best validated tool for mortality but is cumbersome. Simpler tools like CURB-65 or SMART-COP are practical and acceptable for defining severity. 2023 meta-analysis from by Zaki et al showed both work well, but CURB-65 has better mortality prediction early on.Cape Cod Criteria: Any patient meeting the trial’s inclusion criteria (e.g., high-flow O2, non-invasive ventilation) qualifies, regardless of location (ED, floor, or ICU).Biomarkers: While not required, a CRP level was used in many studies. A CRP > 150 (Cape Cod) or > 204 (Smit meta-analysis) strongly indicates severe inflammation that would benefit from steroids.Clinical Judgment: A patient who looks “sick,” has “soft” blood pressure, or has dense infiltrates and high oxygen needs (e.g., >50% FiO2 on high flow) is a candidate.Adverse Effects:Hyperglycemia: This was the most significant risk identified, with rates between 6-12%. This is a primary concern, especially in patient populations with high BMI.GI Bleed & Secondary Infection: Fears of these side effects, which contributed to historical skepticism, were not borne out in the Cape Cod trial. The data does not support being overly concerned.Other Side Effects: Mood changes, delirium, insomnia, and agitation in the elderly are known side effects of steroids that were not specifically addressed in the trial but remain clinical concerns. 🔄 Clinical Pathway for Steroids in Severe CAP Unanswered Questions & Future Research Possible remaining questions:Biomarkers: Can we find a more precise CRP level to distinguish moderate from severe disease? Could other markers like ferritin or IL-6 be used? Dosing & Tapering: How much immunomodulation is needed, and when is it truly safe to taper?Gender Differences: Early data suggests females may respond better to steroids and experience fewer side effects. The question of female patients with severe CAP require less corticosteroids needs further exploration. 👉 Clinical Bottom Line The current literature, spearheaded by the Cape Cod trial, now supports the use of corticosteroids in severe community-acquired pneumonia. The best evidence currently points to hydrocortisone, started early (within 24 hours) after severity is identified using a validated tool. While hyperglycemia is a risk, the previous fears of GI bleeding and secondary infections were not substantiated in recent, rigorous trials. 📚 References Chapa-Rodriguez A, Abou-Elmagd T, O’Rear C, Narechania S.

Season 7, Episode 21 of Sports Fellowship with Fox and Frank opens in the middle of a true Pennsylvania deep freeze, as Dan Fox and Frank Knight battle sub-zero wind chills, bomb-cyclone warnings, and the kind of winter that hasn't hit this hard in years. With Alan “Action” Jackson sitting this one out (and very vocal about needing time before discussing Bill Belichick and Eli Manning without cussing), the guys set the tone with cold-weather banter before locking in The Deion Sanders Episode.The show kicks off by correcting an omission from last week: congratulations to the Indiana Hoosiers, who capped a historic season by going 16–0 and winning the College Football National Championship—becoming the first undefeated champion in the playoff era. Dan and Frank discuss the fun, drama, and inevitability of complaints in a 12-team playoff format, agreeing that whining has no place when that many teams get a shot.From there, the conversation shifts into one of the most polarizing topics in sports right now: the Pro Football Hall of Fame. The guys break down why Bill Belichick not getting in immediately is indefensible, regardless of how the voting process works, while also debating Eli Manning's Hall of Fame case—agreeing he'll get in eventually, but questioning first-ballot status. Along the way, they touch on other notable names stuck in the logjam, what it really means to “change the game,” and why you simply cannot tell the story of the NFL without Belichick.The episode then pivots to speculation and prediction, with Dan floating a bold take: Bill Belichick's next NFL stop could be the New York Jets. The guys debate ownership, timing, legacy, and whether a 70-something Belichick would even want to walk back into another organizational tire fire.The back half of the show dives deep into Major League Baseball's offseason stalemate. Dan lays out the staggering payroll disparities—Mets and Dodgers north of $320 million, while teams like the Marlins, Rays, and Athletics sit under $80 million—and explains how luxury tax payments alone can rival full team payrolls. The Dodgers' massive financial advantages, deferred contracts, international media revenue, and opt-outs from revenue sharing spark a blunt conversation about competitive balance, small-market accountability, and whether a salary cap (or at least a soft cap) is inevitable.The discussion widens into labor tensions, the looming threat of another MLB work stoppage, and the long-term damage done by the 1994 strike. Steroids, the home run boom, fan trust, and Hall of Fame hypocrisy all come back into focus, with Dan and Frank agreeing on one thing above all else: neither side truly prioritizes the fans, despite claiming they do.The episode wraps with a lighter note—broadcast booths, Mets vs. Phillies coverage, baseball fandom vs. team loyalty—and a reminder that this podcast is still being recorded deep in Dan's basement “bomb shelter,” courtesy of ongoing renovations.Special Thanks to:Fox Brothers Alarms - https://foxbrothersalarms.comFirst Baptist church of Phillipsburg NJ http://www.fbcpburg.org/

The conversation heats up around Bill Belichick's Hall of Fame snub as Joe reacts to the added off-field drama and admits he initially thought the news was a joke. With Hall of Fame voters facing heavy backlash, Joe and the crew debate whether Belichick's cheating scandals should permanently impact his candidacy or if keeping him out for just one year makes no logical sense. They argue that personal feelings shouldn't factor into voting and compare the situation to steroid-era players being left out of Cooperstown. The discussion expands into a broader debate about cheating, legacy, and how both the Pro Football and Baseball Hall of Fame handle controversial candidates.

Yesterday marked the one-year anniversary of Donald Trump's inauguration as the 47th president of the United States. In the past year, we've watched as Trump delivered on his campaign promises of “mass deportation now” with violent assaults on immigrant communities, most recently in our neighboring state of Minnesota. On today's show, host Ali Muldrow is joined by scholar Sara McKinnon to talk about what has been predictable and surprising about the Trump administration's immigration enforcement.  McKinnon says that the scale and speed of what has been put in place is unprecedented, from deportation flights, detention, to ICE raids. We've seen that ICE activity in city centers has become more visible, public, and long lasting, with sometimes months-long occupations and tactics that challenge what is lawful. The rhetoric that justifies mass deportation relies on a message of crime and criminality that has been popular with Christian nationalists. On Trump's first day in office, he limited the Refugee Resettlement Program from 125,000 recipients to 7,500, which will be available to white South Africans. They also discuss the power and authority of ICE to kill at will, as with the killing of Renee Good earlier this month, the exponential growth of ICE forces and detention centers, and the racially motivated fear of immigrants that the Right cultivates. Sara McKinnon is Professor of Rhetoric, Politics & Culture in the Department of Communication Arts, and Faculty Director of Latin American, Caribbean & Iberian Studies at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. McKinnon has published three books, including Gendered Asylum: Race and Violence in U.S. Law and Politics (University of Illinois Press, 2016), which examines the gender discourse that emerged in U.S. immigration and refugee law between the 1980 Refugee Act and 2014. Her current research explores the dynamics of human migration in Latin America and analyzes foreign policy relations and rhetoric in a transnational context. Additionally, she leads a collaborative project aimed at expanding legal information about US immigration and refugee programs, as well as legal counsel available to migrants across the Americas, helping them to explore options for safe migration and residence.

Send us a textSome years don't just challenge you—they level you. After losing my dad and a dear friend, my body crashed, my energy evaporated, and work I love got painfully scarce. The worst part? I couldn't name why. Steroids, sleep hacks, strict routines—nothing touched the deep, whole-body ache or the fog that made simple tasks feel like mountains. So I did the uncomfortable thing: I kept asking questions until I got real answers.What finally clicked was a second diagnosis layered on my rheumatoid arthritis—fibromyalgia. Suddenly the relentless fatigue, unrefreshing sleep, and unpredictable pain made sense. With my doctor, I started Cymbalta and doubled down on an anti-inflammatory approach to food, cutting sugar and refined carbs and trying carnivore short-term. Within days, my mood lifted and the pain dialed down just enough to start moving forward. Not cured, but hopeful. Not sprinting, but finally walking without shame.That's where a new motto was born: Stack Gold Bricks In 26. Each brick stands for a pillar—health, family, faith, finances, real estate deals, learning, generosity. Big wins are big bricks. Small habits are coins. Both count. I refuse to live in all-or-nothing mode that burns you out and leaves you with nothing to show. This year I'm leaning into practical education—tight YouTube trainings, focused half-day workshops, and back-to-basics real estate strategies for lead generation, fair offers, creative exits, and disciplined follow-through. The market is noisy, but the fundamentals work when you do.If last year bruised you too, you're not alone. Start with one brick you can place today: book the test, ask for help, prep a low-inflammation meal, or do ten minutes of focused work. We'll build momentum together—patiently, honestly, and on purpose. Subscribe, share this with someone who needs a lift, and leave a review to tell me your first brick for 2026.

As promised, I looked over the "Sacralism on Steroids" graphic put out by the "New Christian Right" putting Donald Trump as Constantine (seriously) and noted the simplistic history that always accompanies these kinds of movements. Then we looked at the variant at 1 Timothy 3:16 as it was addressed by my upcoming debate opponent, Dr. Dustin Smith, in a recent podcast. Today's program has a fair amount of graphical information so audio only folks might be missing out on some things.

HEALTH NEWS   Can exercise turn back the clock on your brain? New study says yes Why leaving things unfinished messes with your mind Short-term, calorie-restrictive diet improves Crohn's disease symptoms Higher daylight exposure improves cognitive performance, study finds Breastfeeding may lower mums' later life depression/anxiety risks for up to 10 years after pregnancy     Can exercise turn back the clock on your brain? New study says yes AdventHealth Research Institute, January 13 2026 (Eurekalert) A simple, steady exercise routine may help your brain stay biologically younger, supporting clearer thinking, stronger memory, and a greater sense of whole-person well-being.   The study found that adults who followed a year-long aerobic exercise program had brains that appeared nearly a year “younger” than those who didn't change their activity levels.   Published in the Journal of Sport and Health Science, the study explored whether regular aerobic exercise could slow, or even reverse “brain age,” a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-based biomarker of how old your brain looks compared to your actual age. A higher brain-predicted age difference (brain-PAD), indicates an older-appearing brain and has been linked to poorer physical and cognitive function and increased risk of mortality in previous research.  In this clinical trial, 130 healthy adults aged 26–58 were randomly assigned to either a moderate-to-vigorous aerobic exercise group or a usual-care control group. The exercise group completed two supervised 60-minute sessions per week in a laboratory plus home-based exercise to reach about 150 minutes of aerobic activity per week, aligning with the American College of Sports Medicine's physical activity guidelines. Brain MRI and cardiorespiratory fitness, measured as peak oxygen uptake (VO2peak), were assessed at the beginning and end of the 12-month period.  Over 12 months, participants in the exercise group showed a measurable reduction in brain age, while the control group showed a slight increase. On average, the exercise group's brain-PAD decreased by about 0.6 years, indicating a younger-appearing brain at follow-up. In contrast, the control group's brains appeared about 0.35 years older, a change that was not statistically significant. Overall, the between-group difference in brain age was nearly one year, favoring the exercise group.     Why leaving things unfinished messes with your mind Yale University, January 12 2026 (Medical Xpress) In a new study, published in the Journal of Experimental Psychology: General, Yale professor of psychology Brian Scholl and lab members explored why humans so badly want to finish what we've started—in matters great and small. It turns out the brain just doesn't like dangling threads. The researchers had a hunch that visual clues could help explain the lure of the unfinished. Why is this state of leaving things undone so salient to us? It's an interesting quirk of human nature that science has not previously addressed. Unfinishedness has been found to decrease work satisfaction, impair sleep, and fuel ruminative thinking patterns. The researchers turned to the visual system. When we see unfinished events, are they somehow prioritized in memory?" To test their hunch that visual memory plays a role in making unfinishedness feel so sticky, the researchers ran four experiments involving a total of 120 participants who viewed computer animations of simple mazes populated by moving dots or lines. In several experiments, it seemed that the brain is wired to notice and remember incomplete things better than finished ones. The findings suggest that "unfinishedness" isn't just about motivation or satisfaction. It's built into the way people see and remember the world.   Short-term, calorie-restrictive diet improves Crohn's disease symptoms     Stanford University, January 13 2026 (News-Medical)   There have been few large studies of dietary interventions for IBD, a group of disorders that includes ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease. Now a Stanford Medicine-led study finds a short-term, calorie-restrictive diet significantly improved symptoms. Their national, randomized controlled clinical trial found that a short-term, calorie-restrictive diet significantly improved both physical symptoms and biological indicators of mild-to-moderate Crohn's disease. A chronic condition affecting about a million Americans, Crohn's disease causes inflammation in the digestive tract, leading to symptoms of diarrhea, cramping, abdominal pain and weight loss. Steroids are the only approved therapeutic for mild Crohn's, but their use is limited due to significant side effects, particularly with long-term use. The study compared the symptoms and biological indicators of patients with mild-to-moderate Crohn's disease as they either followed a fasting mimicking diet or ate their normal diet for three consecutive months. The study enrolled 97 patients across the country, with 65 in the fasting mimicking group and 32 in the control group. Participants in the fasting mimicking group severely limited their calories for five consecutive days per month, eating between about 700 and 1,100 calories a day. Plant-based meals were provided during the fasting period. For the remainder of the month, the fasting mimicking group ate their normal diet. At the end of the study, two-thirds of the fasting mimicking group experienced improvement in their symptoms. The researchers found a significant decline in fecal calprotectin, a protein in the stool that indicates gut inflammation, in the fasting mimicking group compared with the control group. Some inflammation-promoting lipid mediators derived from fatty acids also declined in fasting mimicking group participants. Similarly, the immune cells of fasting mimicking group participants produced fewer of several types of inflammatory molecules.   Higher daylight exposure improves cognitive performance, study finds University of Manchester (UK), January 12 2026 (Medical Xpress) A real world study led by University of Manchester neuroscientists has shown that higher daytime light exposure positively influences different aspects of cognition. The first study of its kind showed that stable light exposure across a week and uninterrupted exposure during a day had similar effects. Participants in the study experienced improved subjective sleepiness, the ability to maintain focused attention and 7-10% faster reaction speeds under bright light when compared to recent dim conditions. Compared with their peers who went to bed later, participants with earlier bedtimes tended to be both more reliably wakeful under bright morning light and sleepy under dimmer evening light. Being exposed to bright, stable daytime light was linked to enhanced and more sustained attention in a visual search task in which participants were asked to find a specific target on a page. Higher daytime light exposure and fewer switches between light and dark were linked to improved cognitive performance. And higher daytime light exposure and earlier estimated bedtimes were also associated with stronger relationships between recent light exposure and subjective sleepiness. However, neither the time of day nor time awake significantly impacted cognitive performance; the effect of light was stronger than the effect of time of day.   Breastfeeding may lower mums' later life depression/anxiety risks for up to 10 years after pregnancy University College Dublin (Ireland), January 8 2026 (Eurekalert)   Breastfeeding may lower mothers' later life risks of depression and anxiety for up to 10 years after pregnancy, suggest the findings of a small observational study, published in the open access journal BMJ Open. The observed associations were apparent for any, exclusive, and cumulative (at least 12  months) breastfeeding, the study shows. The researchers tracked the breastfeeding behaviour and health of 168 second time mothers who were originally part of the ROLO Longitudinal Birth Cohort Study for 10 years.   At the check-ups, the mothers provided information on: whether they had ever breastfed or expressed milk for 1 day or more; total number of weeks of exclusive breastfeeding; total number of weeks of any breastfeeding; and cumulative periods of breastfeeding of less or more than 12 months.   The study concludes there may be a protective effect of successful breastfeeding on postpartum depression and anxiety, which in turn lowers the risk of maternal depression and anxiety in the longer term.

Pressure exposes the truth. It reveals who's prepared, who's present, and who's pretending. And whether you're standing over an eight-foot putt to win the Masters or staring down a boardroom full of investors, the mechanisms that make you crumble — or come alive — are the same. In this powerful conversation, Derek Belch—founder & CEO of STRIVR, former Stanford kicker, entrepreneur, and competitive golfer—breaks down the psychology of high-stakes performance.  Derek shares what truly separates people who execute under pressure from those who collapse, why the myth of "balance" is misleading, and the mindset that's helped him build a pioneering tech company while simultaneously pursuing his quest to qualify for a PGA Tour event. In this episode, you'll learn: Why pressure is a privilege—and the hidden gift inside nervousness The difference between preparation that helps vs. preparation that hurts How VR training reveals the brain's decision-making blind spots Why perspective is the golfer's most underdeveloped mental skill How to reframe pressure as opportunity instead of consequence Why so many founders burn out—and how to avoid becoming one of them The real meaning of work-life balance for high achievers Derek's biggest lessons from pursuing scratch golf in his 40s Whether you're a golfer, entrepreneur, or high performer hungry for the next level, this episode will reshape the way you prepare, practice, and perform.

Simulation (or mental reps) accelerates decision-making under stress. Perspective is the most underrated skill in golf and entrepreneurship. Tournament golf is a completely different sport than casual golf. You must know who you are to handle long-term stress effectively. Balance isn't real; clear values and non-negotiables are. Founders and golfers fail when expectations and identity collide. Key Quotes: "Pressure is a privilege — nerves simply mean you care." "If I've put in the work, it's in God's hands after that." "Visualization is VR on steroids — but golf still demands feel." "You can play golf once a week and expect scratch results? Expectations matter." "Burnout isn't about hours; it's about losing alignment with who you are." "Tournament golf is a different sport. Completely." "Perspective is everything. Even par is not the definition of scratch."

He labels it the year of "music on steroids," noting explosive streaming growth with companies like Spotify (SPOT) taking advantage through incremental price increases for its services. David explains how his ETF takes advantage of that streaming growth, which includes global music companies in countries like China and Japan.

2025 was the year of, "Buy more, go faster, and worry about the fallout later." We put the innovation agenda on the company credit card. But as we enter 2026, the music has stopped, the lights have come on, and the tab is coming due.This week, I'm declassifying what I call the "AI Hangover." Many headlines continue screaming about the next model release and fueling the FOMO, but if you're a business leader, you shouldn't be worried about GPT-6. You need to be worried about incoming fallout of bad decisions and the "Workslop" clogging your current operations.  I spent the last 12 months analyzing the crash before it happened so you don't have to. In this episode, I move past the vendor hype to focus on the three "Market Truths" that prove the party is over. We're transitioning from a year of reckless consumption to a year of necessary cleanup.The real risk isn't that you missed the AI boat; it's that you're driving a supercar on unpaved roads. I break down the three massive failures happening in the market right now:​ The "Ready, Fire, Aim" Failure: Why buying the Ferrari (Enterprise AI) before paving the roads (Data & Readiness) has left organizations with "Silos on Steroids" and pilot purgatory.  ​ The "Workslop" Crisis: Why 2025's "Slop" (Word of the Year) is becoming 2026's corporate nightmare. We discuss why measuring usage is lying to you about value, and the "Productivity Paradox" of generating code bugs faster than ever.  ​ The "Agentic Letdown": The data is in—the robots aren't coming to save us. The "autonomy gap" proves that AI agents cannot run your company, and relying on them to do so is a recipe for catastrophe.  If you're a leader wondering how to clean up the mess without stopping innovation, I share the infrastructure you need to survive.​ The Diagnostic Check: Stop prescribing medicine before checking vitals. Why you need a "Pathfinder Pulse" to map your readiness before you spend another dollar.  ​ The Quality Audit: How to use the "AI Effectiveness Rating" (AER) to distinguish between digital leverage (nutrition) and digital noise (fast food).  ​ The Human Upgrade: Why the "Agentic Future" actually requires more human strategic fluency, not less—and why the Future-Focused Academy is the bridge to safety.  By the end, I hope you'll see this "hangover" not as a failure, but as a necessary signal to stop consuming and start digesting. The party is over, but the real work is just beginning.⸻If this conversation helps you think more clearly about the future we're building, make sure to like, share, and subscribe.
