Send us a textAndrew Sturtz has written songs for over twenty years, releasing projects but never focusing on touring those projects. He's lived in Boulder for nearly a decade, and through playing open mics and other events in the town, he met people who have since become close musical and personal companions.Now, Sturtz has christened a group with his last name, a quartet that includes himself on guitar, Courtlyn Carpenter on cello, Will Kuepper on bass, and Jim Herlihy on banjo. All four provide vocals, with Sturtz providing lead vocals.The band spent a month coming up with their name, even creating a spreadsheet including dozens of potential band names (including Slow Drive, Alcove, Topiary, and Incongruity). However, the group eventually realized that Sturtz served as a perfect name for the group, which focuses on new arrangements of the namesake's original material.

Well winter is on our doorsteps, and for the general population any thoughts of gardening stops, as the common thought is the 'garden has gone to sleep'...Well nothing could be farther from the truth, as the season of shorter days and chilly weather could be one of the most important and busy in the yearly life of your garden. Join Lucy and Saul every week as they show you exactly how busy they are, whether getting everything festive for Xmas, clearing up after the latest storm, enjoying the emergent shoots of early flowering plants or getting ready for spring and a return to the start of the great garden cycle!Wow - 250 episodes of the Talking Heads podcast and you're still reading our accompanying blurb? You deserve a medal! Once we pick ourselves up off the floor, Saul and Lucy celebrate with a look at our professional gardening lives for the week (after all, that is our USP). Saul and his team have been busy de-ivying Stoneland's trees, whilst Lucy has been busy with her topiary shears (well, battery trimmers because she's not a fan of RSI). The duo also ponder why on earth could Saul have been lured to his talk this week? And Lucy looks forward to day on her hands and knees in the name of tulip aesthetics.Twitter links:Saul @GardeningSaulInstagram links:Lucy lucychamberlaingardensBluesky links:Lucy @lucycgardens.bsky.socialIntro and Outro music from https://filmmusic.io"Fireflies and Stardust" by Kevin MacLeod (https://incompetech.com)License: CC BY (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/)Support the show

Charlotte describes the art of making a garden from scratch and on a shoestring, rarely buying plants.

Ingram once lived next door and led a particularly long and interesting life.'Cherry' Ingram - The Englishman Who Saved Japan's Blossoms - Naoko AbeListen carefully as Charlotte shares her wisdom and challenges Dan & Julia not to give up on beleaguered box.Jobs to do in your garden this fortnightCut back the old stems of summer fruiting raspberries and tie in the new green stems.Apply grease bands to the trunks of apple trees to deter winter moths.Apply a winter wash to other fruit tree trunks.Use a fork or spiked shoes to aerate the lawn to avoid water logging.Reuse the compost from spent grow bags to grow some winter salad leaves.Now is an excellent time to move plants, shrubs and trees,Harvest pumpkins in time for Halloween.Prune rambling and climbing roses now, removing old, tangled branches.Apply a final biological spray to box, to eradicate box moth caterpillars.Continue planting spring-flowering bulbs, and prepare to plant tulips from early November.Dan's Products of the Episode:Niwaki Mini ShearsJakoti Hand ShearsWebsite links:Dan Cooper GardenParker's PatchGold Leaf GlovesEuropean Boxwood & Topiary SocietyProduced by Scott Kennett at Red Lighthouse Local Hosted on Acast.

EPISODE 26 is ready to set your speakers ablaze with the sonic tapestry of Topiary Creatures and the mastermind behind their latest opus, Bryson! Today, we're peeling back the layers of indie rock's shimmering new gem with Topiary Creatures' frontman Bryson, as he unravels the journey to their newest album, "The Metaphysical Tech Support Hotline." With a sound that pierces through the veil, this record has already carved its place as a contender for this year's favorite, standing shoulder to shoulder with the likes of Hotline TNT and Prize Horse. Listeners are in for a treat as Bryson shares the alchemy of their music-making, from the spiritual lineage of emo icons to the hands-on production with industry gems. Discover the serendipitous connections that catapulted their sound into the DIY stratosphere and the creative kinship that anchored them in Nashville's vibrant scene. Bryson opens up about the band's process, where genre-defying tracks flow seamlessly, and the art of songwriting becomes a matching game between poetry and melody. He also touches on personal growth, from the loss of faith to finding peace, and how these themes subtly weave into the record's narrative. We also delve into the balancing act of dual lives – the day job that fuels capitalism by day and the maximalist rock that feeds the soul by night. Bryson reflects on the evolution of his artistry, the embrace of creative freedom, and the importance of keeping the passion alive in the grind of DIY music. So, if you're ready to dive into an episode that's not just a conversation but a journey through the heart of indie rock's lush landscape, hit play and join us.

Dearest listeners, grab your tickets and front row seats for our encore performance of ‘Four Clowns Lose Their Minds Over 32 Seconds of Footage.' In this special bonus episode, we can't see the forest for the trees, but we'll be placing our newest theories under the spotlight as we tackle the ever-growing mystery of the Season 3 timeline.   We'll be reading Whistledown with a grumpy Unicolin, drinking lemonade with Anton Chekov and contemplating whether an innocent bit of blue fabric is in fact a smoking gun-in-waiting.  Elsewhere, we'll be chasing Moonlight Polin through the shrubbery and asking the all-important question, ‘how many times can we say the word ‘topiary' in one episode?' Unfortunately, dear listeners, it would seem the limit does not exist.  But forgive us for hedging our bets with these particular points of interest. After all, those topiaries have taken shape so naturally, one could take it for planted.  * Show Notes  ⁠YouTube: Bridgerton S3 sneak peek - Drawing Room scene⁠ ⁠YouTube: Next on Netflix 2024 – ft.

My guest this week is Belgian nurseryman Karel Goossens. Karel runs an internationally renowned nursery supplying box plants and is the Chariman of the Belgian arm of the European Boxwood & Topiary Society. With decades of experience growing box and an irreverent approach to tackling the problems that go along with it, when he was recommended to me, I thought he was my ideal sort of guest! He does recommend intensive cultivation methods which include spraying chemical fungicides and insecticides, so this epsiode is not for everyone. However, I do acknowledge that many historic gardens are built around a backbone of box and that many listeners are professional gardeners who deal with box and its attendant blights, so this epsiode is a practical look at what you can do.  Dr Ian Bedford's Bug of the Week: Box Tree Moth Links Kwekerij Goossens on Instagram European Boxwood & Topiary Society Karel's website for tripod ladders Our Plant Stories with Sally Flatman Other episodes if you liked this one: Lawns with David Hedges-Gower Hiring a Garden Designer

I'd like to transport you to Levens Hall and a garden that was created in 1694 when topiary was the height of fashion and taste. Over the intervening 329 years this Lake District garden has had only 10 Head Gardeners and each has cared for and clipped that topiary. We first met the current head gardener, Chris Crowder, in Episode 8 in conversation with Diana Boston about the slow nature of gardening with topiary. You can of course listen to that Plant Story and its Offshoot. Hearing Chris talk about his annual job of clipping some 100 pieces of topiary was fascinating, so I went to find out more. I hope you enjoy this visit to the garden and you can see photographs on the website.Produced and Presented by Sally FlatmanMusic: Fade to Black by Howard Levy

Ben, Noel and super producer Casey Pegram dive back into the weeds of the surprisingly ancient (and ridiculous) art of trimming flora into bizarre and elaborate shapes. It's a practice that had a habit of falling in and out of fashion depending on the whims of whoever was in power. Were topiaries simply an elaborate flex for the super rich or something that could be appreciated by everyone? Or maybe both?! Find out in this second part of the history of topiaries.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

If you've ever looked at a bush and thought "this would be way cooler if it was shaped like a rabbit," then you're part of a long line of topiary enthusiasts throughout history. This ancient art of shaping, training and trimming plants and trees into fanicful, decorative shapes dates back into antiquity. In this special two-part series, Ben, Noel and Casey dive into the origin story of twisting, tangled origin story of topiary (and how it's way weird than you might think).See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Ron Jeremy...The Inside Dirt...We truly know this guy. AND some guy is dressing as a tree.

Oprah, Wall Street Journal, LA Times ~ My interview with Pearl Fryar is inspiring & the documentary is a must see. The Bill and Melinda gates Foundation supports his story, Oprah & many others major media reviews do also. not to mention the millions who visit is nursery from all over the world.Pearl Fryar started making his Topiary Garden in 1984 in a successful bid to win a prestigious local competition. He taught himself to prune and shape the trees and shrubs he had planted in his 3 acre garden, using a petrol-driven hedge trimmer and starting with a few plants. Working from his imagination, Fryar coaxed over 100 specimens of more than 20 different trees and plants, including holly, yew and juniper, into fantastic shapes, hearts, animals and abstract forms.Pearl has passed his art on to a NEW Generation of topiary Artists to maintain his Garden.EVEN Today, it is a National Tourist Attraction!!When Pearl Fryar and his wife sought to buy a house in an all-white neighborhood of Bishopville, SC, they were dissuaded with the explanation that Black people don t keep up their yards. Remarkably, instead of fueling bitterness and anger, this comment motivated Pearl to win Bishopville's Yard of the Month award and, eventually, to transform his ordinary suburban yard into a horticultural wonderland. The topiary garden s centerpiece emblazons both its message and Pearl s own philosophy: Love, Peace, and Goodwill.Pearl Fryar is an African-American born in Clinton, North Carolina, Pearl was the son of a sharecropper. Since the early 1980s, Pearl Fryar has been creating fantastic topiary at his garden in Bishopville, South Carolina. Living sculptures, Pearl s topiaries are astounding feats of artistry and horticulture. Many of the plants in Pearl s garden were rescued from the compost pile at local nurseries. With Pearl s patience and skilled hands, these throw aways have thrived and have been transformed into wonderful abstract shapes. Pearl Fryar and his garden are now internationally recognized and have been the subject of numerous newspaper and magazine articles, television shows, and even a documentary, A Man Named Pearl. Today, the Pearl Fryar Topiary Garden draws visitors from around the globe.Visitors to the Pearl Fryar Topiary Garden experience a place that is alternately beautiful, whimsical, educational, and inspiring. Pearl s garden contains over 300 individual plants, and few are spared from his skilled trimming. His extraordinary topiary is complemented by his junk art sculptures placed throughout the garden. Pearl s garden is a living testament to one man s firm belief in the results of positive thinking, hard work, and perseverance, and his dedication to spreading a message of love, peace, and goodwill.A MAN NAMED PEARL chronicles the story of Pearl s magical garden as well as his extraordinary life, both of which serve as inspirations to his family, his community, and the thousands of visitors who come to experience Pearl s world each year. The film traces Pearl s journey from a small town sharecropper s son to an internationally-acclaimed artist, focusing in particular on his position as the celebrated cultural and spiritual icon of his impoverished town. Now 68, the soft-spoken Pearl has just one wish for all those who wander through his living art; they must leave feeling differently than when they arrived."It's the one time in my life ignorance paid off," chuckles Pearl Fryar, a humble man with no eduction in horticulture who, after years of dedicated work, created an astonishing garden in the economically depressed town of Bishopville, S.C. But A Man Named Pearl doesn't just wander among the three acres of Fryar's beautifully sculpted trees and bushes, all created from plants Fryar rescued from the scrap heaps of local nurseries.The documentary shows how his singular vision spread out to affect the community, leading to Fryar being commissioned by art museums and turning Bishopville into a topiary mecca. But despite reviving the economic fortunes of the town, getting national recognition and free food from his local waffle house, and even becoming an unlikely sex symbol, Fryar remains thoughtful, warm, and dynamic, eager to help students and troubled youth discover their unexplored potential. A Man Named Pearl carefully balances the mysteries of the creative impulse with the fundamental humaneness of this outsider artist, resulting in an engaging, rewarding portrait--a perfect midpoint between The Parrots of Telegraph Hill and Crumb.© 2023 Building Abundant Success!!2023 All Rights ReservedJoin Me on ~ iHeart Media @ https://tinyurl.com/iHeartBASSpot Me on Spotify: https://tinyurl.com/yxuy23baAmazon ~ https://tinyurl.com/AmzBASAudacy:  https://tinyurl.com/BASAud

Although food and feasts were at the heart of her family celebrations while growing up Adele Pollard (The Topiary, South Australia) never envisaged a career in hospitality until a few key, and interwoven moments opened her eyes to a whole new world of connection. She was hooked and has since spent over a decade helping to build one of Australia's archetypal examples of what it truly means to connect, cook and deliver local hospitality that is as in-tune with sustainability, as it is with staff pathways and consumer experience too. https://www.topiary-dining.com Follow Deep In The Weeds on Instagram    https://www.instagram.com/deepintheweedspodcast/?hl=en Follow Huck https://www.instagram.com/huckstergram/ Follow Rob Locke (Executive Producer) https://www.instagram.com/foodwinedine/ LISTEN TO OUR OTHER FOOD PODCASTS https://linktr.ee/DeepintheWeedsNetwork

Team Making It Grow traveled to Charleston recently to the small garden behind St. John's Reformed Episcopal Church. During a Spoleto outreach project many years ago, this garden showcasing two of national artists' unique skills was installed. A master of iron work design and craftsmanship, Phillip Simmons, created unique and appropriate gates and wall openings. Topiary artist Pearl Fryar designed a small but exquisite example of his unique artistry. A committee of the Garden Club of Charleston has been tending this garden but recently took lessons in Fryar's techniques from Mike Gibson to learn some of the specific techniques. The McKissick Museum at U S C got a grant to hire Mike Gibson, a self-described property artist, to work and learn from Fryar in his Bishopville garden, as that world-renowned topiary artist is aging and limited in his activities.

The Friday Newsletter | Daily Gardener Community   Historical Events 1621 Birth of Andrew Marvell, English poet and politician. He was a friend of John Milton. In addition to writing The Garden - one of the most famous English poems of the seventeenth century - he wrote this little garden verse: I have a garden of my own But so with Roses overgrown And Lilies, that you would it guess To be a little wilderness.   1824 Birth of Dietrich Brandis, German forester and botanist. He's remembered as the Father of Forestry in India, the Father of Modern Forest Management, and the Father of Tropical Forestry. Concerned about the unregulated destruction of the forests in India, the British wanted people in India to help manage and protect the trees. In 1856, Dietrich left his botany professorship in Bonn (where his father had been a professor) for a civil service position managing the teak forests in Burma. Eight years later, Dietrich was in charge of all the forests in India. In Carl Alwin Schenck's Birth of Forestry in America, there's a fascinating story about how Deitrich inventoried the Teak trees in the forest. [He rode] an elephant, on such trails as there were, with four sticks in his left hand and a pocketknife in his right. Whenever he saw in the bamboo thickets a teak tree within two hundred feet of his trail, he cut a notch in stick number 1, 2, 3, or 4, denoting the diameter of the tree. It was impossible for European hands, dripping with moisture, to carry a notebook. At the end of the day, after traveling some twenty miles, Brandis had collected forest stand data for a sample plot four hundred feet wide and twenty miles long, containing some nineteen hundred acres. He continued his cruise for a number of months, sick with malaria in a hellish climate. Moreover, he underwent a trepanning operation (brian surgery), and for the rest of his life, he carried a small hole filled with white cotton in the front of his skull. But he emerged from the cruise with the knowledge needed for his great enterprise. Dietrich established modern "sustainable" agroforestry principles that are still followed today. For two decades, Dietrich measured, itemized, and chronicled the forests of India. He started forest management schools and created training protocols for his employees. In 1878, Deitrich founded the Forest Research Institute in the Doon Valley in Dehradun. Styled in Greco Roman architecture, the building is beautiful and is the largest purely brick structure in the world. Sir Joseph Hooker recognized Deitrich's work and named the flowering-plant genus Brandisia in his honor.   1848 Birth of William Waldorf Astor, American-British attorney, politician, businessman (hotels and newspapers), and philanthropist. In 1891, a tall, shy William Waldorf Astor moved to Britain after declaring that "America is not a fit place for a gentleman to live." After over a decade living in England, William bought a run-down double-moated Hever Castle, which was Anne Boleyn's family home four hundred years earlier. Between 1904 and 1908, William oversaw the installation of the extensive gardens designed by Frank Pearson to surround the castle. William diverted water from a nearby river to make a 35-acre lake to make his vision a reality. It is said that eight hundred men hand-dug and stomped on the clay soil to make the bottom of the lake. Mature trees were harvested from Ashdown Forest and transplanted at Hever. Two mazes were installed. Topiary chessmen were pruned for the chess garden. Thousands of roses were brought in for the rose garden. But, the most impressive Garden at Hever was and is the Italian Garden, which features colonnades, classical sculptures, antiquities dating back to Roman times, and a loggia. There's also a long pergola on one end that features cool dripping fountains the entire length. Even today, it's staggering to think the whole project was completed in four short years.   1924 Birth of Leo Buscaglia, American author, motivational speaker, and professor in the Department of Special Education at the University of Southern California. Leo believed education should be the process of helping everyone to discover his uniqueness. Leo learned to Garden from his father, and he once wrote, To this day I cannot see a bright daffodil, a proud gladiola, or a smooth eggplant without thinking of Papa. Like his plants and trees, I grew up as a part of his garden. Leo was a self-help guru who preached love so much that he became known as "Dr. Love." He once wrote,  A single rose can be my garden; a single friend, my world. He also wrote, There are many miracles in the world to be celebrated and, for me, garlic is the most deserving.   Grow That Garden Library™ Book Recommendation Passions by Carolyne Roehm   This book came out in 2021 at the end of the year in December, and this is actually a collection of three books. All three books feature Carolyn's passions: flowers and gardens, feminine touch (which is all about how Carolyn loves to decorate), and furry friends, which of course, shares Carolyn's love of animals, especially her pups.  I have to say that I love the book sleeve for these books slip into because the artwork is reminiscent of Maria Sibylla Merian. Carolyn writes, I hope that this little trio of books about the joy that I found in flowers and gardening, feminine allure and feminine style and the love of furry friends delights and inspires you as it has me.  When I think about this book set, I think about it like a gift - a little book set to gift - so if you're looking for something special for yourself or a friend, this little set of books should be at the top of your list. The photography in all of these little books is absolutely stunning; it's all Carolyn Roehm. If you're a Carolyn Roehm fan, if you love her home in Connecticut or if you've watched any of her styling videos on YouTube, then you will immediately recognize the deeply saturated hues and the stunning compositions that she puts together with flowers and exquisite objects in her home. The balance of color, form, and architecture - all the incredible details that she pulls together - is just drop-dead gorgeous. This book is 240 pages of Carolyn Rome's passions - her favorite things - flowers and gardens, feminine allure and design,  and furry friends.  You can get a copy of Passions by Carolyne Roehm and support the show using the Amazon link in today's show notes for around $34.   Botanic Spark 1962 On this day, a landscape worker hit a line connecting President Kennedy's White House to the Strategic Arms Command, the line vital to launching a nuclear attack. The project was led by Bunny Mellon, who was in charge of designing a new rose garden outside the President's office. Robert Kennedy once reflected on Bunny in the Garden, saying, Often during cabinet meetings, we would see her out there in the rose garden – a little figure with a bandana on her head.  One of Bunny's first tasks was to find a gardener to implement her designs. She selected a man named Irvin Williams, who was a government gardener at Kenilworth Aquatic Gardens. After Bunny brought him to the White House, he would stay on as the head gardener for almost fifty years. In early talks for the rose garden redesign, the Park Department voiced concerns about hitting underground lines. Bunny's plan called for large magnolia trees, which after some debate, were eventually ordered. But on this day, the underground line was cut during ground preparation. Bunny recalled that the problem was handled calmly and that she was never reprimanded. Bunny found the perfect magnolia trees for the White House over by the Tidal Basin overlooking the Jefferson Memorial. Once again, the Parks Department said "no" (due to costs). But Irvin Williams supported Bunny's idea, and he made arrangements to have the trees brought to the White House.  The roses included a yellow rose from the state of Texas called the Speaker Sam rose in honor of the late speaker of the House Sam Rayburn, a bright red variety from the World's Fair, a white rose name Frau Karl Druschki, and pink Doctor roses. Twenty-four days after the underground line was hit, the Garden, complete with magnolia trees and roses, was unveiled to the public. The updated rose garden was an instant success. The artist and friend of the Kennedys, William Walton, later wrote, [President Kennedy's] pleasure in that garden was infinite.   Thanks for listening to The Daily Gardener And remember: For a happy, healthy life, Garden every day.

Oprah, Wall Street Journal, LA Times ~ My interview with Pearl Fryar is inspiring & the documentary is a must see. The Bill and Melinda gates Foundation supports his story, Oprah & many others major media reviews do also. not to mention the millions who visit is nursery from all over the world.Pearl Fryar started making his Topiary Garden in 1984 in a successful bid to win a prestigious local competition. He taught himself to prune and shape the trees and shrubs he had planted in his 3 acre garden, using a petrol-driven hedge trimmer and starting with a few plants. Working from his imagination, Fryar coaxed over 100 specimens of more than 20 different trees and plants, including holly, yew and juniper, into fantastic shapes, hearts, animals and abstract forms.Today, it is a National Tourist Attraction!!When Pearl Fryar and his wife sought to buy a house in an all-white neighborhood of Bishopville, SC, they were dissuaded with the explanation that Black people don t keep up their yards. Remarkably, instead of fueling bitterness and anger, this comment motivated Pearl to win Bishopville's Yard of the Month award and, eventually, to transform his ordinary suburban yard into a horticultural wonderland. The topiary garden s centerpiece emblazons both its message and Pearl s own philosophy: Love, Peace, and Goodwill.Pearl Fryar is an African-American born in Clinton, North Carolina, Pearl was the son of a sharecropper. Since the early 1980s, Pearl Fryar has been creating fantastic topiary at his garden in Bishopville, South Carolina. Living sculptures, Pearl s topiaries are astounding feats of artistry and horticulture. Many of the plants in Pearl s garden were rescued from the compost pile at local nurseries. With Pearl s patience and skilled hands, these throw aways have thrived and have been transformed into wonderful abstract shapes. Pearl Fryar and his garden are now internationally recognized and have been the subject of numerous newspaper and magazine articles, television shows, and even a documentary, A Man Named Pearl. Today, the Pearl Fryar Topiary Garden draws visitors from around the globe.Visitors to the Pearl Fryar Topiary Garden experience a place that is alternately beautiful, whimsical, educational, and inspiring. Pearl s garden contains over 300 individual plants, and few are spared from his skilled trimming. His extraordinary topiary is complemented by his junk art sculptures placed throughout the garden. Pearl s garden is a living testament to one man s firm belief in the results of positive thinking, hard work, and perseverance, and his dedication to spreading a message of love, peace, and goodwill. A MAN NAMED PEARL chronicles the story of Pearl s magical garden as well as his extraordinary life, both of which serve as inspirations to his family, his community, and the thousands of visitors who come to experience Pearl s world each year. The film traces Pearl s journey from a small town sharecropper s son to an internationally-acclaimed artist, focusing in particular on his position as the celebrated cultural and spiritual icon of his impoverished town. Now 68, the soft-spoken Pearl has just one wish for all those who wander through his living art; they must leave feeling differently than when they arrived."It's the one time in my life ignorance paid off," chuckles Pearl Fryar, a humble man with no eduction in horticulture who, after years of dedicated work, created an astonishing garden in the economically depressed town of Bishopville, S.C. But A Man Named Pearl doesn't just wander among the three acres of Fryar's beautifully sculpted trees and bushes, all created from plants Fryar rescued from the scrap heaps of local nurseries. The documentary shows how his singular vision spread out to affect the community, leading to Fryar being commissioned by art museums and turning Bishopville into a topiary mecca. But despite reviving the economic fortunes of the town, getting national recognition and free food from his local waffle house, and even becoming an unlikely sex symbol, Fryar remains thoughtful, warm, and dynamic, eager to help students and troubled youth discover their unexplored potential. A Man Named Pearl carefully balances the mysteries of the creative impulse with the fundamental humaneness of this outsider artist, resulting in an engaging, rewarding portrait--a perfect midpoint between The Parrots of Telegraph Hill and Crumb. © 2022 Building Abundant Success!!2022 All Rights ReservedJoin Me on ~ iHeart Radio @ https://tinyurl.com/iHeartBASSpot Me on Spotify: https://tinyurl.com/yxuy23baAmazon ~ https://tinyurl.com/AmzBAS

What does Paul think of Charlie Munger? Find out in this week's PlayingFTSE Podcast! We kick off this week with the big UK story — that Greggs and Primark have teamed up to launch a range of Greggs-branded apparel. Steve D used to own Greggs shares, find out what he thinks about the new range of merch. Obviously, it's not as good as ours, but what is? This week's game is from Steve W. It's called “Topiary” because it's about fancy hedges. Paul and Steve D spend this week's game trying to work out how much hedging a portfolio in one or another way would slow down someone's overall returns. None of us hedge, though it's getting tempting in this environment. See how Paul and Steve get on guessing wildly at the returns of gold, an inverse tracker, and some triple leveraged instruments. After that, it's on to some big earnings news. It's still earnings season. AirBNB reported their earnings this week. The big news is that they've turned a profit (on the quarter, not the year). Steve D owns this company and gives us his view. Paul considers the importance of the company making its way into the stream of consciousness of his parents, and Steve W thinks about the importance of turning a profit sooner rather than later. One that didn't do so well is Roblox. The stock got hammered after its earnings, though the market's reaction might or might not be justified. Steve D illuminates the company's “bookings” category, its growth, and the structure of the business. Paul discusses bank transfering money to kids and Steve W reflects on the fact that he's probably now losing in the 5 stock sampler. Nvidia also reported earnings this week. Steve W has the report on this one. They might not be buying ARM, but things are going pretty well at Nvidia. Steve D talks about the numbers that he might be interested in this company at and Paul wonders about the company being a glaring opportunity. Last up it's Palantir. Nobody knows what this company does, including us. That's why we don't own it. Shares are down again after the company's earnings report, but we don't know why. Watch all three of us scrambling to try and have a view on a company that we don't understand... All on this week's show!
