Brighton 0 - Arsenal 1 | Victory Through Agony | Instant Reaction : Arsenal leave the Amex with a massive, hard‑earned 1–0 win, seven points clear at the top (with City's game in hand lurking), and Tabs and Jamie are absolutely buzzing — delirious, incoherent, and riding the high of a night where everything somehow fell our way. From Saka's deflected strike to Forest's late equaliser against City, this is an episode soaked in adrenaline, nerves, and pure Premier League chaos.The lads break down a match that was tense, scrappy, and frankly horrible in the first half, with Brighton pressing the life out of us and Arsenal struggling to string passes together. But the second half? A masterclass in professionalism. Gabriel puts in a Gandalf‑level performance (“thou shall not pass”), Raya redeems himself after an early wobble, and Havertz brings calm and control off the bench.There's plenty of catharsis too — from the away end turning the Amex into a rave after Forest made it 2–2, to the collective hatred of Fabian Hürzeler's touchline antics, to the relief of seeing Arsenal manage a game like a title‑winning side. Tabs and Jamie dive into he momentum swings, the substitutions, and why this kind of ugly win matters in a title race.They also look ahead to the FA Cup trip to Mansfield, talk rotation, academy minutes, MLS time, and why Nigel Clough's pre‑match comments were unintentionally hilarious. Plus: Relegation Watch TM, Spurs misery, West Ham chaos, Villa wobbling, and the wider title‑race psychology as Arsenal and City keep matching each other stride for stride.This episode is everything HOTP is meant to be: raw, emotional, sweary, and full of that “victory through agony” feeling that defines this season.Follow, rate, and subscribe on your favourite podcast app.Find us on socials: @thegroveafcThis is The Grove, and everyone is welcome.

Tabs explains how telepathy works energetically, why animals are naturally more receptive to this form of communication, and how our thoughts and emotions can influence the world around us more than we realize.Tabs also explores the science behind nonverbal communication, nervous system awareness, and intention—offering a grounded perspective on how these subtle exchanges occur. She shares practical ways you can begin strengthening your own intuitive communication, whether with animals, people, or Spirit.If you've ever wondered whether your pets can sense your thoughts, emotions, or intentions, this episode will open your mind to what's possible and help you trust the quiet ways connection happens beyond words.Tune in for a powerful reminder that communication isn't always spoken—it's often felt, sensed, and received.ONLINE GROUP PAST LIFE REGRESSION⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.tabsmccaffrey.com/past-life-regression⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Mediumship 101 Class ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.tabsmccaffrey.com/development-page⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Interested in booking a 1:1 session with Tabs?

Immer wieder ist im Zusammenhang von Anschlägen und Terror von Salafisten die Rede. Aber was genau ist Salafismus? Wie groß und gefährlich ist die Szene in Deutschland und wie viele Menschen gehören ihr an? Eva-Maria Lemke spricht in dieser Hintergrundfolge mit dem ARD-Geheimdienstexperten Holger Schmidt über Prediger, Netzwerke und darüber, dass Radikalisierung und Taten heute oft anders ablaufen als noch vor zehn oder fünfzehn Jahren. Außerdem geht es um die entscheidende Frage, was deutsche Behörden und besonders die Geheimdienste tun können, um Anschläge zu verhindern. Wie all das in einem konkreten Fall abgelaufen ist - und warum manchmal auch der Zufall helfen kann, um Taten aufzuklären, erzählt die begleitende Storytelling-Folge „Das Terror-Quartett und die Bombe am Bahnsteig“. Ein Hörtipp: Wenn ihr Lust auf skurrile und abseitige Themen habt, empfehlen wir den Podcast „Too many Tabs“. Dort sprechen die beiden Autor:innen des ZDF Magazin Royale Carolin Worbs und Miguel Robitzky über die Tabs in ihren Browsern, die sie einfach nicht schließen können: Vergessene Dokus, bizarre Gerüchte, tiefe Recherchen zu skurrilen Fakten. https://1.ard.de/tmt?cp

How to turn down the chatter of negative self-talk.If you want to have better conversations with others, Ethan Kross says you first have to quiet down the chatter in your own head.A professor, researcher, and author, Kross defines chatter as a “negative thought loop” that hijacks our attention and undermines our ability to perform. “We have a limited capacity to focus our attention,” he says. “Attentional resources are a limited commodity, and chatter acts like a sponge that consumes that capacity. It leaves very little leftover that allows us to do the things that we want or need to do.” In his work researching, teaching, and writing about emotional regulation and the conscious mind, Kross has explored how to manage the negative self-talk that sabotages our concentration. “Here's the good news,” he says. “You can get out of it. Managing your chatter [is] a lot like becoming physically fit” — and he's developed tools and frameworks for building the muscles to turn down the noise.In this episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, Kross joins host Matt Abrahams to share methods for quieting chatter and reclaiming precious mental resources. From distanced self-talk to mental time travel, his tools offer a way to tune out the static and tune into clarity and connection.To listen to the extended Deep Thinks version of this episode, please visit FasterSmarter.io/premium.Episode Reference Links:Ethan KrossEthan's Books: Chatter / ShiftEp.179 Finding Positive in Negative Emotions: Communication, Happiness & Wellbeing Connect:Premium Signup >>>> Think Fast Talk Smart PremiumEmail Questions & Feedback >>> hello@fastersmarter.ioEpisode Transcripts >>> Think Fast Talk Smart WebsiteNewsletter Signup + English Language Learning >>> FasterSmarter.ioThink Fast Talk Smart >>> LinkedIn, Instagram, YouTubeMatt Abrahams >>> LinkedInChapters:(00:00) - Introduction (02:27) - Defining Chatter (04:57) - Breaking the Loop (09:54) - Technology & Emotional Sharing (13:20) - Why “Get Over It” Fails (18:40) - Emotions as Data (21:11) - The Final Three Questions (25:01) - Conclusion   ********Thank you to our sponsors.  These partnerships support the ongoing production of the podcast, allowing us to bring it to you at no cost.This episode is brought to you by Babbel.

If you've been “researching” moving abroad for months (or years) and still haven't made it happen, this episode is for you. Spoiler: you don't have a research problem. You have a decision problem. The over-research rabbit hole is a hiding place, and the first step out of the rabbit hole is clarity. Let's get you to finally move from thinking to doing.In this episode, we unpack:The D.R.E.A.M. modelHow research is your safety blanket. You're not looking for more information, you're looking for certainty and permission. Neither exists.You're asking the wrong questions. “What can I do?” leads to paralysis. “What do I actually want my life to look like?” leads to decisions.The real fear isn't lack of info — it's making the wrong choice. But staying stuck costs more than learning from a few mistakes along the way.Information doesn't create confidence - plans do.Not deciding is still a decision.Ask yourself this: if years of research haven't moved you yet, why would more research help you now? If you're ready to stop thinking about moving abroad and actually do it, I'll see you inside the Escape Plan Bootcamp.Subscribe and ReviewIf you loved this episode, please take a moment to subscribe and leave a review on Apple Podcasts!

From John Malone and cable TV to private equity, SaaS, and today's AI boom, CJ explains how a metric invented out of desperation became the default language of valuation—and how adjusted EBITDA can both clarify and distort the truth about a business.—SPONSORS:Metronome is real-time billing built for modern software companies.

In this episode of Run the Numbers, CJ sits down with Dan Griggs, CFO of Intercom, to break down how finance leaders should think about pricing, forecasting, and resource allocation in the AI era.

In this episode of Run the Numbers, CJ sits down with Maria Izurieta, CFO of Huntress, to unpack what it really means to lead finance as a connective tissue across the organization. Drawing on experience across VC-backed, PE-owned, and public companies, Maria shares how she balances impact versus perfection, builds trust through small wins, and helps teams move from transactional finance to insight-driven decision making. They dig into data transparency, centralized BI, partnering with sales and marketing on revenue, and why the best CFOs unblock friction instead of becoming the “no” department — all while bringing a deeply people-first lens to scale.—SPONSORS:Abacum is a modern FP&A platform built by former CFOs to replace slow, consultant-heavy planning tools.

In this episode of Run the Numbers, CJ sits down with Ken Stillwell, CFO and COO of Pegasystems, to explore the realities of leading from the second seat. Ken shares hard-earned lessons from guiding Pega through the shift from term licenses to ARR and ACV, including how to rework sales compensation without losing trust or momentum.

They dig into his hands-on approach to automation using AI with limited engineering resources, how Postscript's metrics evolved as the company scaled, when to trust internal data over benchmarks, and where teams get tripped up.

You kick off the year by tightening your Apple habits, starting with smart Quick Tips that actually stick. You build year-based music playlists for offline listening, flip on Airplane Mode when you're out of service to save serious battery, and let the Health app handle reminders for meds and eye drops so nothing slips. You're reminded of power-user staples like Cmd-Shift-5 for screenshots, learn how Google Sites can double as a surprisingly effective bookmark manager, and get clarity on when and how to disable VPNs properly, including on Apple TV for region-locked content. Along the way, you discover tools that reliably track Apple refurb inventory and dig into the oddly fascinating logic behind Safari's tab close order. Then it's time to not get caught. You hear why Time Machine now warns you when your backup drive is too small, why storing Notes “On My Device” can bite you later, and how increasing cloud storage often means increasing local storage, too. Listener questions keep things practical, from tracking a missing Apple TV remote to deciding when an iPad beats a laptop. A deep dive into strange Safari tab behavior brings it all home, followed by Cool Stuff Found that helps you update Macs more intelligently, evaluate startup risks, replicate Mac setups with Ansible, and even capture insights from podcasts using AI. It's a fast, practical reset that helps you start the year sharper, safer, and a little more in control. 00:00:00 Mac Geek Gab 1123 for Monday, January 5th, 2026 January 5th: National Whipped Cream Day MGG Monthly Giveaway – Enter to win a copy of Ecamm Live or Carbon Copy Cloner 7!
