In this week's episode of Wise_N_Nerdy, Charles and Joe kick things off with the Question of the Week: “Which fictional character would make the best podcast guest — and why?” Joe goes with a timeless classic—Space Ghost—and Devocite immediately backs him up.

If you love puns that hurt so good, this round is pure gold.The dice then pull the show into the Parliament of Papas, where Charles and Joe unpack one of adulthood's hardest lessons: knowing when to say no. From friends to coworkers to the people you really want to help but maybe shouldn't, they discuss personal boundaries, burnout, expectations, and how to balance compassion with self-preservation.Next comes Daddy, Tell Me A Story, where Joe takes listeners on a whirlwind chapter of his life—graduating college, landing a new job, and moving in with his in-laws all in the same week. It's heartfelt, funny, and relatable for anyone who's ever had life come at them fast.Then it's time for What Are You Nerding Out About? Joe gushes over a new wholesome romantasy anime, Pass The Monster Meat, Milady, a delightful blend of magical creatures, charming relationships, and cozy fantasy vibes.

Send us a textFour chairs, one feast, and a lot of opinions. We sat down for our annual Thanksgiving roundtable to tackle the choices that make or break the day: where to spend it, when to eat, which sides survive, and whether the Macy's Parade is better in person or from the couch. What starts as a friendly debate about gummy bears and toothpaste quickly shifts into a real conversation about how couples and families merge holiday traditions without losing what feels like home.We dig into the logistics that quietly run the day—timing meals around football, planning for naps and travel windows, and the art of double dinners. The table talk gets lively as we eliminate one side between cranberry sauce, applesauce, and salad, then crown the essentials: stuffing with gravy, old-school mac and cheese, and mashed potatoes built for leftovers. We break down turkey tactics, from brining to frying, and why white meat often wins the sandwich wars while dark meat delivers flavor on the bone.The debate widens to big-picture choices: Is a holiday about the big-city spectacle or cozy traditions? Would you actually spend Thanksgiving in New York to catch the balloons up close? We also rank the big four holidays—Christmas, Thanksgiving, Easter, and New Year's—and the results might surprise you. Mixed in are practical tips like the overlooked value of New Year's Day sales and the no-waste approach to post-feast turkey stew.If you're juggling multiple households, optimizing the menu, or simply deciding when to carve, this conversation will feel like your own living room—warm, honest, and a little competitive.

Betsy's back from Tahiti and hits the ground sneezing—literally. She and Ali dive into post-trip chaos: nasal rinses, sea-sickness, the emotional weight of aging dogs, and whether fur baby culture is helping or hurting. They spiral (hilariously) into LA's Franken-squirrel invasion before digging into the ethics of keeping pets—and people—alive too long. Plus: a husky in need of a home, cottage cheese peer pressure, and why dogs might be the best judges of character.

Open Season kicks off today. Federal employees and retirees are facing another round of double-digit premium hikes, shifting plan defaults, and new coverage options. Here to explain what's changing and how to avoid paying for coverage you don't need is John Hatton from NARFE.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In this episode, John tackles three real questions from listeners dealing with the challenges of Ontario's housing market. First, a landlord planning to sell a tenanted property asks whether it's possible — and smart — to get an N11 signed before listing to avoid losing a deal if the tenant refuses later. John breaks down what landlords need to know about the N11 process and the risks of getting too far ahead of a sale. Next, a condo buyer wonders if it's really an advantage to deal directly with the listing agent. After touring multiple properties and getting wildly different experiences, they ask the big question: does going straight to the listing agent actually help, or can it hurt you? Finally, an investor who bought a suburban home four years ago is struggling to rent out rooms to international students as demand drops. With higher interest rates, negative cash flow, and falling prices, they're now losing $1,500 a month — and wondering whether to hold or sell at a loss. John walks through each situation with practical advice grounded in today's market realities.

Get ready for another dose of high-volume heavy metal and low-budget horror! Rex and Duff are back, and this week we're digging our nails further into the coffin of Metal Horror Films, continuing our discussion on the perfect and imperfect blending of loud riffs and cinematic gore. Then, we transition to a debate that's been rattling the scene for decades: "Built-by-the-Label" Bands. We're talking about bands that emerged from a carefully crafted marketing plan rather than the garage. Do they count? Can they make great music despite their origins? We focus on one band in particular but tough on the concept itself.  Finally, we close out the show with a round of Halloween Havoc Tough Choices! We're pitting everything spooky, scary, and seasonal against each other in our popular "King of the Mountain" format. Tune in and scream along as we make some impossible decisions!

The prevailing theme of our discussion centers on the persistent and multifaceted impact of tariffs within the furniture industry, a subject that has dominated conversations at the recent High Point Market. As we delve into the intricacies of this evolving landscape, we observe that suppliers are exhibiting remarkable creativity in response to the challenges posed by the tariff environment, thereby ensuring the continuity of business operations. Notably, consumer preferences are shifting, with an increasing demand for functionality, value, and sustainable practices influencing purchasing decisions. Domestic manufacturers are finding unexpected advantages, as tariffs have prompted a resurgence of interest in American-made goods, thereby narrowing the cost disparity between imported and locally produced items. Furthermore, we explore transformative real estate developments, such as the innovative conversion of the former Red Lion Hotel into a mixed-use space, which epitomizes the broader evolution of our industry, extending beyond mere furniture to encompass strategic real estate initiatives that aim to rejuvenate the market's very core.The dialogue presented in this episode of Furniture Industry News intricately navigates the complexities of the furniture market, particularly through the lens of the current tariff environment. The discussion commences with an examination of the pervasive influence tariffs exert on the industry, compelling suppliers to recalibrate their strategies in response to evolving consumer expectations. It is noted that while the tariff situation introduces formidable challenges, it simultaneously catalyzes a renaissance for domestic producers, thereby leveling the competitive playing field. This duality of challenge and opportunity is underscored by insights from industry leaders who recognize a burgeoning consumer preference for domestically manufactured goods, spurred by an increased awareness of sustainability and a desire to support local economies.Takeaways: The current tariff situation continues to foster a dynamic and challenging business environment for furniture suppliers. There is a notable shift in consumer preferences towards furniture that offers both functionality and genuine value. Domestic producers are experiencing a resurgence in consumer interest due to the competitive advantages presented by tariffs. The transformation of the former Red Lion Hotel into a mixed-use space exemplifies real estate's growing importance in the furniture industry. Bernhardt Furniture is adapting to the modern consumer by combining traditional craftsmanship with innovative design elements. At Home Group's successful financial restructuring signifies a pivotal moment for the retailer, marked by a significant reduction in debt.

Travis Rieder is a faculty member at the Johns Hopkins Berman Institute of Bioethics, where he directs the Master of Bioethics degree program.

Kia ora,Welcome to Monday's Economy Watch where we follow the economic events and trends that affect Aotearoa/New Zealand.I'm David Chaston and this is the international edition from Interest.co.nz.And today we lead with news Australia is facing some hard choices in their relationships with China and the US. Can you have security without economic stability? Can you have stability with a disrespectful and unreliable partner?But first, this coming week will be dominated by today's New Zealand CPI release later this morning. And a full dairy auction on Wednesday.In the US, there is some expectation that they will get their September CPI data at the end of the week (expect higher than 3%) despite the shutdown. But most focus there will be on the Q3 earnings season announcements. CPI data will also come from Japan, Singapore and Malaysia. But there will be PMIs from all over this week and well as interest rate decisions from Indonesia and Korea. And the Chinese will review their Loan Prime rates although no change is expected.From China, they will release Q3 GDP data, which is expected to show a small sag (to 4.8%?), along with a range of other core economic metrics which should give a broader fix on how they are trackingOver the weekend in India, bank loan growth accelerated to its fastest pace of expansion in September, for all of 2025, up +11.4% from year-ago levels to US$2.3 bln.After two months of declines, Singapore's exports rose almost +7% in September from a year ago, largely on the back of recovering exports of electronic goods.In Malaysia, their Q3 GDP result shows them expanding +5.2% from a year ago, accelerating from +4.4% growth in Q2. It is their fastest expansion in a yearIn Australia, there is growing concern about the building of uneven wealth distribution and how inheritances embed both inequality and entitlement. A failed attempt to address it through their superannuation system reforms has just raised the pressure to 'do something'.A more immediate stress is also building in Australia; American pressure to de-couple from China. This seems quite unlikely given the local wealth-weight dependent on the China trade. But it will make for 'interesting times' in the AU-US relationship.In the US over the weekend President Trump seemed to back off his sharp rhetoric against China in another TACO moment. Markets went into temporary relief mode on Friday. There was more TACO for Ukraine, even Gaza but both of them just added to the mess he made.The UST 10yr yield is now at 4.01% and unchanged from Saturday but down -4 bps for the week.The price of gold will start today at US$4251/oz, up +US$30 from Saturday. Over the past week, gold is up a net +5.8%, silver is up a net +3.3% and platinum is now marginally lower.American oil prices are holding lower at just on US$57.50/bbl, with the international Brent price now just over US$61/bbl.The Kiwi dollar is at just on 57.4 USc, and up +10 bps from Saturday. Against the Aussie we are unchanged at 88.3 AUc. Against the euro we are up +10 bps at 49.2 euro cents. That all means our TWI-5 starts today at just on 61.9, up +10 bps.The bitcoin price starts today at US$108,732 and up +2.4% from this time Saturday. Volatility over the past 24 hours has been modest at just on +/- 1.3%.You can get more news affecting the economy in New Zealand from interest.co.nz.Kia ora. I'm David Chaston. And we will do this again tomorrow.

In today's changing world, parents face the dilemma of whether to direct their children toward traditional careers or emerging fields shaped by technology and automation. Professions once seen as stable, like law or medicine, are evolving or shrinking, while careers in coding, robotics, and engineering are increasingly valued. Parents must balance financial security with supporting their children's passions. Some advocate letting children follow their interests, while others stress building practical skills as a safety net. Here's what you had to say about this topic!

SHOW NOTES: On this show…we're talking about the idea of choosing your hard. Have you ever felt like life just keeps piling on the challenges, like no matter what direction you take, it's tough? Marriage is hard, but so is divorce. Being in debt is hard, but so is being financially disciplined. Communication is hard, but so is staying silent. The truth is, there's no easy route. But what if instead of feeling like life is happening to us, we recognized that we get to choose which hard we live with? It's tempting to believe that we've been dealt a bad hand or that everyone else has it easier. When things get hard, we can get stuck; stuck in self-pity, stuck in resentment, stuck in the belief that we don't have options. But here's the reality: every hard comes with its own kind of growth. Being fit is hard, but so is carrying the weight of poor health. Working through conflict is hard, but so is living with unresolved tension. When we stop waiting for life to be easy and start owning the hard we choose, we take back our power. I once had someone in a support group tell me, “You can't just choose to be happy. It doesn't work that way.” And I get what she meant, it isn't instant. But I believe happiness is a choice, because when you decide to lean toward joy, you're also deciding to turn away from sadness. It doesn't mean your circumstances change overnight, but your posture does. And over time, those choices add up. That's what we'll explore today: how to shift your perspective, own your decisions, and recognize that while life will never be without struggle, you do have the power to choose which struggle you embrace. When we say, “life is hard,” what do we really mean? Hard can look like stress, sacrifice, discipline, heartbreak, or persistence. Hard is waking up early to work out when you'd rather sleep in. Hard is having the difficult conversation instead of ignoring the problem. Hard is sitting with grief, or pushing through self-doubt, or choosing to budget when spending feels easier. Hard doesn't mean impossible; it means uncomfortable, unfamiliar, or requiring effort. The truth is, we don't get to opt out of difficulty. Every path comes with its own version of hard. If you avoid exercise, you might face the hard of poor health. If you avoid saving, you might face the hard of financial instability. If you avoid conflict, you might face the hard of broken relationships. The meme that inspired this episode puts it plainly: marriage is hard, divorce is hard. Choose your hard. In other words, difficulty is part of the human experience; you just get to decide which type of difficulty leads you closer to the life you want. What makes this powerful is recognizing that choice is always involved. Even when it doesn't feel like it, you are making a choice, whether it's by acting or by avoiding. Choosing your hard isn't about pretending the struggle doesn't exist. It's about asking yourself: which hard moves me toward growth, peace, or joy, and which hard keeps me stuck? Once you see that you have agency, the focus shifts from “why is this happening to me?” to “which challenge am I willing to embrace for the sake of something better?” Choose your HARD - (a short film for motivation) CHALLENGE: Take a clear look at the “hard” you're living with right now and ask yourself—did I choose this, or did I drift into it? Make one intentional choice this week to embrace the hard that moves you toward growth, even if it's uncomfortable in the moment. I Know YOU Can Do It!

You don't get to be the oldest law firm in New York without weathering some rough spots. But this may be one of the most difficult periods Cadwalader, Wickersham & Taft has ever gone through.  The Wall Street firm, which this week announced a new managing co-partner, has lost nearly three dozen partners just this year. And not all of them have left because of the firm's controversial deal with President Trump for free legal services. On today's episode of our podcast, On The Merits, Bloomberg Law reporter Justin Henry explains why Cadwalader may be too specialized to thrive in today's full-service legal industry. He also talks about ways the firm can turn itself around without having to resort to a merger. Do you have feedback on this episode of On The Merits?

 Fertility Docs Uncensored is hosted by Dr. Carrie Bedient from the Fertility Center of Las Vegas, Dr. Susan Hudson from Texas Fertility Center, and Dr. Abby Eblen from Nashville Fertility Center. In this episode, the Fertility Docs dive into the complexities of decreased ovarian reserve and the tough decisions that come with it. What happens when only a few eggs are retrieved? When is it best to fertilize, and when might it be time to stop treatment? Our docs unpack the emotional and financial weight of multiple cycles with low yields and explain why sometimes looking at sperm health—including DNA fragmentation testing may be important. They discuss the role of growth hormone in supporting egg quality, the difficult but potentially life-changing choice of donor eggs, and strategies for dealing with dominant follicles, from luteal starts to estrogen priming. You'll also hear insights on high AMH at age 41, unexplained infertility that turned out to be diminished reserve, chemotherapy's impact on fertility, and alternative paths when IVF isn't financially possible—from IUI and intratubal insemination to fertility grants. This is a must-listen episode for anyone navigating the challenging reality of decreased ovarian reserve. This podcast was sponsored by Shady Grove Fertility.

With 2018's Vampyr, Don't Nod took a swing a narrative, decisions-matter action RPG, and while I liked Vampyr a lot, the decisions-matter part of it left a lot to be desired.

Moral philosopher Travis Rieder joins "Values & Interests" to explore how we might pursue ethical lives in an era of global crisis. From climate change and violent conflict to the dilemmas of daily life, Rieder argues that we must radically overhaul our outdated moral toolkits to face the challenges of an increasingly contradictory and catastrophic world. Dr. Travis Rieder is an associate research professor at the Berman Institute of Bioethics at Johns Hopkins University. His latest book is "Catastrophe Ethics: How to Choose Well in a World of Tough Choices." For more, please go to: https://carnegiecouncil.co/values-interests-rieder

We live in a broken world, and humanity is the most broken and imperfect of all God's creation.The world has a permanent OUT OF ORDER sign on it, and as a result, most of us are looking for answers to our questions and solutions to our problems in all the wrong places.We place our trust in ourselves, in shallow standards of beauty, in money, and in our relationships with other people, hoping for meaning and completion we will never find in these sources.We are lost people, following false gods, hoping for the elusive spiritual peace that only God can give us.Our deliverance won't come in the form of a blank check, a beauty treatment, self-empowerment, or even the most fulfilling relationship with a parent, spouse, or child; the fulfillment we seek will come to us only when we choose God and put Him first.Joshua 24:15 says, “Choose this day whom you will serve. As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.”For thousands of years, worldly things have called to humanity, offering false promises and failing to deliver. From the very beginning, and before this world was even created, the one true God was. He is. He always will be. And when we choose Him, He promises to give us lasting hope, peace, and love for all eternity.Nothing in a jar, box, or bank account can come close, and no relationship means more.Let's pray.Heavenly Father, we choose you. Only you are worthy above every false god, above every temptation, above our relationships with people, money, or things. We choose you, and ask you to guide us in putting you first, in all things. In Jesus' name, amen. Change your shirt, and you can change the world! Save 15% Off your entire purchase of faith-based apparel + gifts at Kerusso.com with code KDD15.

In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik Chakraborty sits down with author and podcast host Douglas Robbins to explore how mental health directly influences our ability to make clear decisions. From childhood programming and emotional reactivity to spiritual practices and self-honor, Douglas offers grounded wisdom on moving beyond fear and rewriting our internal narratives. Whether you're navigating big life choices or struggling with everyday self-doubt, this conversation challenges the myth that mental wellness is optional—and makes the case that it's the foundation for living fully. About the Guest:Douglas Robbins is the author of deeply reflective books like Narikan: The Cloaked Deception, Love in a Dying Town, and Baseball Dreams and the Bikers, each probing the complexities of identity, resilience, and legacy. As host of The Douglas Robbins Show, he brings raw and honest discussions about personal growth, spirituality, and societal issues to life. His work centers on helping others connect with truth, act with intention, and live with deeper self-awareness. Key Takeaways: Emotional reactivity often stems from unexamined childhood patterns and fear-driven narratives. True decision-making starts by honoring the present moment—not reacting from the past. Legacy is not wealth; it's the integrity and example you leave behind. Journaling, meditation, and limiting media noise can help sharpen self-awareness. Emotional wellness isn't a luxury—it's the compass for every meaningful action.

Send us a textIn today's episode, we're diving into a practical blueprint for making those big, life-shaping decisions that often feel overwhelming because of the risks involved. The process unfolds in four main stages, each with important sub-steps to guide your thinking. Start by asking yourself if the decision is reversible-can you change course later, or is it a one-way door with lasting consequences? Next, consider how much time you have: if time is tight, it's usually wiser to take the safer path. If you do have time, assess how much certainty you have about the options. When there's a fair amount of certainty, go for the choice with the highest return on investment. But if uncertainty is high, pause and ask yourself whether you might regret this decision down the line. This framework helps you navigate complexity, manage risk, and make confident choices about your future. Tune in for a step-by-step guide and real-world examples to help you master big decisions.في حلقة اليوم، سنتناول خارطة الطريق العملية لاتخاذ القرارات الكبيرة والمصيرية التي غالباً ما تبدو صعبة بسبب المخاطر المرتبطة بها. تتكوّن هذه العملية من أربع مراحل رئيسية، وكل مرحلة تتضمن خطوات فرعية مهمة تساعدك على التفكير بشكل منهجي. ابدأ بسؤال نفسك: هل القرار قابل للتراجع أم لا؟ هل يمكنك تغييره لاحقاً أم أنه قرار نهائي لا رجعة فيه؟ بعد ذلك، فكّر في الوقت المتاح أمامك: إذا كان الوقت ضيقاً، من الأفضل غالباً اختيار الخيار الأكثر أماناً. أما إذا كان لديك متسع من الوقت، فقيّم مدى اليقين الذي تملكه تجاه الخيارات المطروحة. إذا كان هناك قدر كافٍ من اليقين، اختر الخيار الذي يحقق أعلى عائد ممكن. أما إذا كانت نسبة عدم اليقين مرتفعة، توقف واسأل نفسك: هل من الممكن أن أندم على هذا القرار لاحقاً؟ هذه المنهجية ستساعدك على التعامل مع التعقيدات، وإدارة المخاطر، واتخاذ قرارات واثقة بشأن مستقبلك. استمع للحلقة لتتعرف على الدليل الكامل خطوة بخطوة وأمثلة واقعية تساعدك على إتقان فن اتخاذ القرارات الكبرى.
