Survivor AU: Redemption Episode 12 Recap Australian Survivor: Redemption is back with another wild pre-merge ride! Host Mike Bloom is joined by special guest Omar Zaheer to break down all the strategy, twists, and chaos from the latest episode. A shocking blindside takes center stage, as alliances fracture and a top player learns just how quickly fortunes can shift in the outback. This episode dives into the unraveling of the powerful “Head Office” alliance as Faith, Mark, and Keely's partnership explodes in dramatic fashion. The Redemption Beach twist shakes up voting power, leaving returning players and newbies scrambling to adapt. The show's major twist—players returning to camp without their votes—forces contenders to think on their feet. Mike and Omar analyze Faith's brutally honest approach, Mark's pivotal decision to betray his closest ally, and the debate over whether it's ever the right time to strike first or wait for jury. There's also an in-depth look at challenge throwing, idol expiry rules, and the always-entertaining dynamic between the returnees and superfans. Key points in this episode: Mark's dilemma: Is it too soon to flip on your number one, or was Faith's honesty too much to ignore? Faith's exit—the emotional and strategic fallout of the season's biggest blindside. The chaos and calculations around the Redemption Beach twist and lost votes. Omar's take on why Australian Survivor's unpredictable challenge throws create unique gameplay moments. Hilarious asides about pet peeves, Australian nicknames, and who might just have the smallest hands in the cast. With the merge on the horizon, fractured loyalties and shifting power balance put Survivor's mantra—“outwit, outplay, outlast”—to the test. Will Mark's risky move pay off, or will new alliances endanger his game? Tune in for full analysis, deep strategy talk, and Survivor hot takes, including idol plays, alliance fractures, and what to expect now that the game—and the jury—are around the corner!

C dans l'air du 18 mars 2026 - Municipales : des alliances... et des surprises ?La campagne des municipales se tend, à l'image des insultes et menaces proférées par le maire sortant d'Arcachon Yves Foulon à son rival écologiste Vital Baude, qui a porté plainte. À quatre jours du second tour, les candidats ont mené mardi d'ultimes tractations avant 18h, heure fatidique pour le dépôt des listes électorales. Contre toute attente, le président des Républicains Bruno Retailleau a refusé d'apporter son soutien à Christian Estrosi, distancé par Eric Ciotti au premier tour, en dépit de l'accord national qui liait LR et Horizons. L'ancien ministre de l'Intérieur a justifié son choix par "la campagne délétère à Nice", mais il fait aussi payer au maire sortant de vieilles querelles politiques, notamment son manque de soutien à François Fillon lors de la présidentielle 2017. À Toulouse, les socialistes et La France insoumise ont mis leurs égos de côté pour former une liste commune susceptible de battre le maire divers droite Jean-Luc Moudenc. À l'inverse, les socialistes se déchirent à Strasbourg. Arrivée en tête au premier tour, la candidate socialiste Catherine Trautmann a annoncé une alliance avec le candidat d'Horizons pour contrer l'alliance que la maire sortante écologiste, Jeanne Barseghian, a noué avec les Insoumis. De quoi rebattre les cartes pour le second tour, où tout peut arriver. C'est le cas à Paris, où le candidat Horizons Pierre-Yves Bournazel (11, 34 %) a fusionné avec la liste de Rachida Dati (25, 46 %), arrivée deuxième du premier tour derrière Emmanuel Grégoire (37, 98 %), tandis que la candidate Reconquête! Sarah Knafo (10, 40 %) a retiré la sienne. Des manœuvres qui pourraient rebattre les cartes pour le second tour. À gauche, Sophia Chikirou (11, 72 %)a maintenu sa candidature, après avoir échoué à fusionner avec la liste socialiste. « Là où la France insoumise arrive en tête [du premier tour], la fusion se fait. Et là où le PS arrive en tête, ils la refusent de façon sectaire et anormale », a-t-elle dénoncé dans les colonnes du Parisien. Ce soir, les trois candidats auront l'occasion de régler leurs comptes, en direct, lors du débat organisé par BFM-TV. Un temps écartée, Sophia Chikirou a finalement été invitée par la chaîne. À Marseille aussi, l'heure est à l'incertitude. Le candidat du Rassemblement national Franck Allisio est arrivé deuxième du premier tour (35, 02 %), juste derrière le maire sortant Benoît Payan (36, 70 %). En quatrième position, le candidat LFI Sébastien Delogu (11, 94 %) a préféré jeter l'éponge : « Nous prenons la décision de retirer notre liste et de ne pas participer aux paris inconséquents de Benoît Payan », a-t-il déclaré lors d'une conférence de presse, mardi. Dans la deuxième ville de France aussi, le débat de l'entre-deux tours, prévu jeudi soir sur France 2, devrait bouleverser les dynamiques. Troisième du premier tour, la candidate LR Martine Vassal (12, 41 %) devrait participer à un débat à trois, malgré l'hostilité de Franck Allisio qui a jugé qu'elle n'avait « strictement aucune chance » d'être élue. Quelles alliances ont été nouées pour le second tour des municipales ? Qui va profiter de la triangulaire à Paris ?

In this episode, LDG breaks down every aspect of the NWSL opening weekend!LDG goes match by match across the weekend of play, in chronological order, and focuses on the smallest details you might have missed in each match, as well as the overarching themes and early storylines to keep an eye on.He analyzes what the first weekend of games revealed about the teams' identities, especially expansion teams/sides with new coaches, highlighting the tactical trends he found and the biggest surprises in the results (looking at you, Thorns and Seattle for winning in a very impressive fashion against two perennial teams, respectively!)LDG also points out the key players who impressed, from new signings to the league, like Lucia di Guglielmo and Leah Klenke, to goalkeepers in net who put in superhuman performances, saved far more chances than typical, Abby Smith and Jane Campbell.After all, it is only the opening weekend, so LDG examines what these results indicate tactically and personnel-wise for the losing and winning sides moving forward, and which teams may need to make adjustments ahead of future matches.LDG ends by exploring the overarching imbalance in investment across the league, shares his hopes for those franchises in the future, and explains how economic and strategic investment off the pitch has mirrored the franchise's success on the pitch.Thank you for listening!

On the show this week, I draw on real-world experiences from current retirees to uncover the surprises, challenges, and valuable lessons they wish they'd known before stepping into retirement. If you're curious about the realities of social interaction after leaving the workforce, managing rising healthcare costs, or navigating company-specific 401(k) features, this episode is for you.    You will want to hear this episode if you are interested in... [00:00] Retirement lessons from retirees [08:23] Prioritizing tax planning in retirement [15:06] Retirement accounts & investment insights [20:20] Surprises, joys, and challenges of retirement [25:40] Retirement costs and income trends [29:33] Feeling free and contented as a retiree   Real-World Wisdom for a Confident Retirement We imagine endless free time, new adventures, and freedom from work stress—but what is retirement really like? In my years guiding clients through retirement, I often ask retirees, "What surprised you most?" What do you wish you'd known? What would you warn others about? These questions have uncovered truths that go beyond finances and touch on the emotional, social, and practical realities of retirement. Social Connections: The One Thing You Can't Save for in an Account One of the biggest things retirees miss from their working years is the daily social interaction. While the freedom from commutes, meetings, and workplace stress is lauded, losing those daily connections can leave a gap that's hard to fill. For those who draw much of their sense of identity and purpose from their careers, this can be especially jarring. Structuring your weeks, finding new sources of community, and keeping your mind engaged become just as important as managing your income streams. Health, Taxes, and the True Cost of Living Even with careful planning, some expenses in retirement can catch people off guard. Health insurance costs (including deductibles, vision, and dental plans) often rise higher than expected. The end of workplace group insurance makes the cost and complexity of health coverage feel much more real. Inflation and utility bills also bite into budgets—sometimes spiking enough that even conservative projections fall short. For example, one of my clients saw their trash bill go up by 35% and their homeowners' insurance by 25% in a single year. Taxes are another recurring theme. Many are surprised to learn that not only do taxes not disappear in retirement, but they can be significant, particularly with Social Security benefits subject to federal (and, in some states, local) taxation. Time, Freedom, and Flexibility It's not all challenges, of course. Many retirees I know say they actually enjoy retirement more than expected. The ability to control your schedule, indulge in more travel (with strategic timing to save money), and enjoy less stress are rewards that many say "you can't put a price on." When every day is a Saturday, the power to choose makes all the difference. Preparation Outweighs Guesswork If there's one recurring thread, it's this: those who enjoy retirement most are the ones who entered it with a clear, written plan. Whether forced into it early by layoffs or health issues, or able to choose the optimal time, being prepared gives you confidence and flexibility. My advice is don't wait, start planning well before your retirement date, and remember to factor in the emotional side of retirement, not just the dollars and cents. Then review your plan with professionals who can help you adapt as things change. Retirement isn't just about the numbers, it's about building a life with meaning, joy, and resilience. Listen to those who've been there, adapt to life's surprises, and give yourself the best chance to retire strong, happy, and worry-free.   Resources & People Mentioned 3 Steps to Retirement Planning   Connect With Gregg Gonzalez Email at: Gregg.gonzalez@lpl.com Podcast: https://RetireStrongFA.com/Podcast Website: https://RetireStrongFA.com/ Follow Gregg on LinkedIn Follow Gregg on Facebook Follow Gregg on YouTube Subscribe to Retirement Made Easy On Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Google Podcasts

Mike reacts to the growing intensity of political rhetoric in America, highlighting outrage from critics of President Trump—particularly a viral rant from longtime Democrat strategist James Carville that he says reflects the deep emotional divide in the country. The conversation also touches on controversy over Trump wearing a baseball cap during a military ceremony, broader accusations of hypocrisy from political leaders and media figures, and a new poll showing Trump outperforming leading Democrats like Kamala Harris and Gavin Newsom. Mike argues the reactions reveal how polarized the political climate has become as the 2026 election cycle approaches.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

I'm on the city council for a small town in Louisiana. When I dug into the numbers, I realized we're almost entirely dependent on electricity revenue. If that dips, the math falls apart fast. Sound familiar? It's the same thing that happened to online businesses when iOS 14 hit. Facebook ads broke, and businesses that were "balanced" went under—because they were structurally dependent on one thing. "Balanced" doesn't mean "healthy." This week you tracked the surface. Now it's time to look underneath. Your homework: Where is your revenue concentrated? Where are your leads concentrated? What's your iOS 14—the one thing that could break your whole model?

Navigating the Wild West of Texas Note Deals: Red Flags & Real ReturnsHave you ever been sent a deal that looks too good to be true, or perhaps just a little... "off"? In this special edition of Note Night in America, we're pulling back the curtain on a recent tape of 76 performing Texas notes. While the high interest rates and rural charm might catch your eye, the real story lies in the due diligence. Join us as we dissect a "daisy chain" of brokers, hunt down the truth through county records, and show you exactly how to calculate if a low-balance note is a diamond in the rough or a high-cost headache. Whether you're a seasoned pro or a "note buying for dummies" student, this deep dive into the "Spidey senses" of investing is a masterclass you can't afford to miss.Key Topics Covered in This Episode:Identifying "Joker Brokers" & Daisy Chains: How to spot when a deal is being passed through too many hands and why not being "direct to the seller" can frustrate your negotiations.The "Spidey Sense" of Due Diligence: Why a lack of loan numbers, third-party servicing, or RMLO (Registered Mortgage Loan Originator) verification should be an immediate red flag for any investor.Deep-Dive Research Techniques: Learn how to use batch geo-mapping, county deed searches, and lender website audits to verify the "hustle" and find the true origin of the notes.The Math of Arbitrage: A step-by-step breakdown of buying notes at 80% of the Unpaid Principal Balance (UPB) while funding them with private money at 85% to create instant "up-front" profit and long-term cash flow.Texas High-Cost Loan Hazards: Understanding the risks of interest rates exceeding 10% in Texas and how low down payments (under 10%) can complicate foreclosures.Amortization & Exit Strategies: How to use amortization tables to determine exactly when you must sell a note before the balance drops below what you owe your investors.Rural Property Realities: The challenges of getting accurate BPOs (Broker Price Opinions) in small towns like Alice, Spur, and Sweetwater, and why "windshield time" is sometimes the only way to verify value.Closing thoughts:Success in note investing isn't just about finding a list; it's about having the discipline to walk away when the numbers—or the stories—don't add up. We appreciate the hustle of every new investor, but our goal is to ensure you're making bids that actually close and protecting your reputation with your funding partners.

Welcome to Multiverse News, Your source for Information about all your favorite fictional universesNetflix has walked away from its bid to buy Warner Brothers, refusing to raise an initial offer after a counter offer from Paramount Skydance at $31 dollars a share, its largest push to buy the studio to this point. This move sets up Paramount as the favorite to acquire Netflix with no real competitor left in the field. The Ellison family has made an extended political push, as well as a financial push to raise the offer enough to secure the chance to purchase the studio and all the intellectual property included. Netflix is also expected to walk away with a $2.8 billion dollar termination fee, paid by Paramount. On an investor call on Monday, David Ellison confirmed that eventually, HBOMax and Paramount+ will merge into one streaming platform.‘Twas two weeks before the Oscars and during awards season, Sinners took a surprise award home and we don't care for what reason! The awards show formerly known as the SAG Awards, now called the Actor Awards, livestreamed on Netflix this past Sunday, hosted by Kristen Bell. The biggest surprise of the night was Michael B. Jordan winning the lead actor award for his roles in Sinners, which Viola Davis announced in a way that went viral. In other horror film news, Amy Madigan took home her second award this season for best supporting actress in Weapons.Scream 7 blew past all expectations at the weekend box office, where it opened to a franchise-best $64.1 million domestically and $33.1 million overseas for a global start of $97.2 million, the best opening weekend in the franchise's history. It's a quiet time otherwise at the movies, as we look to May for the beginning of a hot summer season, with Sony Picture's GOAT pulling ahead of Wuthering Heights, both of which are in their third weekends.Amazon has unveiled a first look at the live-action “God of War” TV series, with production on the show now underway in Vancouver. The image offers fans their first glimpse of Ryan Hurst as Kratos, the titular god of war, and Callum Vinson as his young son, Atreus. On Saturday, David Jaffe, the creator of the “God of War” video games, took to his YouTube channel to criticize the first look, calling it a “dumb fucking image," and saying "could you find a picture that doesn't look like he's shitting in the woods?

Is there any better for a race than Phillip Island? Well, given all the news at the weekend Steve and Gordo report from on the ground with the thoughts of the locals, the staff and the paddock on the bombshell news that MotoGP will move to Adelaide. Will WorldSBK follow? It certainly seems that way. On track, Nicolo Bulega was imperious as he starts his quest for global domination. The Aruba.it Ducati star man is a little more likeable than a bond villain and a hell of a rider. We break down his weekend which featured an incredible, almost unnecessarily, dominant performance in the wet conditions of Sunday. There are plenty of stories to follow this weekend. The first double podium for bimota since 1988 has confirmed the resurgence of Axel Bassani. His Sunday double will have given him a huge boast in confidence that this season he can be a closer challenger to his teammate, Alex Lowes. Lowes was one of the fallers in the wet conditions in Race 2 and we look at what caused many of the falls. The rise and fall of Independent Ducati's is set to be a big story this year. Steve said in our preview show that "on your good days you've got to take advantage of the package." Lorenzo Baldassarri certainly did that. The Italian, who refuses to acknowledge his season aboard a GMT94 Yamaha as a Superbike campaign, impressed the paddock this week. In testing he was quick but to withstand the pressure from Bassani in the closing stages of Race 1 was rewarded with his first career podium finish. Yari Montella had his first career front row and podium too. At BMW are the reigning World Champions in a tailspin? It depends on who you ask. That being said the two-day Portimao Test on March 9-10 will be critical for them. It was a weekend of highs and lows Miguel Oliveira. The rookie had everything thrown at him over the weekend. A superpole crash that relegated him to the back of the field was followed by two superb recovery rides in both conditions to leave him one point ahead of his teammate, Danilo Petrucci, in the standings. The performance gap between them seemed much higher this week. Yamaha's Xavi Vierge was the fastest man in blue this week but came away with zero points after a big crash in Race 1. Andrea Locatelli looked lost for most of the opening round but in wet conditions he found some confidence and came away fifth position. Thanks to Renthal Street for supporting the podcast.

From there, the conversation shifts to Hyatt after a detailed (but ultimately false) rumor sparked debate about a premium credit card and new award categories. Could something like this still happen? And what would it mean for Globalist members? Plus, an unexpected development in the Chase Travel portal: American Airlines flights are now showing up with Points Boost pricing.

What happens when your carefully planned retirement takes an unexpected turn? On this week's episode of Beyond Retirement, I reflected on this question.Here are 3 key takeaways for anyone planning their next chapter:Build Your Lifeline Early: Relationships with family, friends, and community are just as crucial as financial planning. The support Susie and Tony received made all the difference during their toughest days.Nurture Your Anchors: Whether it's faith, creativity, volunteering, or something else—identify what keeps you grounded. Start strengthening those anchors now, so you're ready when challenges arise.Embrace Flexibility: Plans are important, but adaptability is essential. The most meaningful moments often come from the unexpected detours and from helping others, even while facing your own trials.Retirement is a new beginning—sometimes bumpy, but always full of opportunities for growth, connection, and purpose.

We've talked about loopholes and contract problems before, but avoiding the messiness of real estate is one of those topics you can never cover too many times.   In this episode, we're talking about all the tiny contract decisions that don't feel like a big deal until suddenly they are. Missing initials. Blank lines. Verbal promises. Appliances that magically disappear. Furniture negotiations that never end. You know the ones.   This conversation was sparked by a broker who reached out to us after stepping into a compliance role and realizing just how messy agents can get with paperwork. From there, we went deep into why clean contracts matter, how verbal agreements create risk, and why adding "just one more thing" to a purchase agreement can blow up an otherwise smooth deal.   This episode is part pep talk, part cautionary tale, and part reminder that professionalism protects everyone involved.   Here's what we cover in this episode: Why avoiding the messiness of real estate starts with treating paperwork like a legal document (because it is) How missing initials, blanks, and timestamps can create real liability Why verbal agreements are only good for setting expectations, not protecting deals The risks of "knowledge only" conversations during due diligence Appliances, furniture, grills, boats, and why movables make contracts messy fast How lenders and appraisers view non-real-estate items in contracts Why clean offers are often the strongest offers A reminder that it's not a problem until it's a problem Key Quotes & Takeaways Alissa: "It's not a problem until it's a problem. And then it's a big problem." Katy: "The more things you add to a contract, the more things can go wrong." Alissa: "Verbal agreements are only good for setting expectations, not protecting deals." Katy: "Clean offers win. Every single time." Alissa: "Professionalism isn't about being perfect. It's about being careful."
