It's Friday, but Glenn's day was immediately ruined after watching a clip of Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker (D) suggesting that Democrats can civilly sue their political opponents. Glenn breaks down his latest live special, the design and production that went into it, and why its message is critical for everyone to hear. President Trump, while visiting with the prime minister of Japan, was asked why he didn't notify the government of Japan before striking Iran, and his response was something that needs to be heard, not told. Glenn reacts to the heartbreaking news of the passing of actor and martial artist Chuck Norris, who was recently hospitalized. Glenn and his staff discuss the latest jaw-dropping tax proposal from New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani (D), which would raise the top real estate tax from 16% to a whopping 50%. Glenn's former co-host and host of the upcoming show "Predictable with Stu," Stu Burguiere, joins to discuss this year's midterms and what the numbers are saying about each side's chances. Glenn and Stu also discuss the concept of making money off polling numbers and political predictions. Finally, Glenn and his team take an Insider's response to Glenn's special, which exposed the threat of radical Islamism.  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Building Purpose-Driven Companies: Leadership Wisdom with Patrick MorkIn a recent episode of The Thoughtful Entrepreneur Podcast, host Josh Elledge sat down with Patrick Mork, a renowned leadership speaker, executive advisor, and author of Step Back and Leap: Nine Keys to Unlock Your Life and Make Change Happen. Drawing from his high-octane background as a tech founder and a three-time Chief Marketing Officer, Patrick shares how the modern leadership landscape requires more than just technical acumen—it demands a foundation of purpose. This conversation explores the psychological and operational hurdles of the startup journey, providing a strategic roadmap for founders who want to build companies that are as resilient as they are impactful.Mastering the "Soft Tissue" of High-Performance LeadershipTransitioning from a technical expert to a true leader often reveals a significant gap in what Patrick calls the "operating system" of a company: its culture and interpersonal dynamics. For many founders, the most grueling part of the journey isn't the coding or the fundraising, but the inevitable friction that arises between co-founders and senior teams. Patrick emphasizes that conflict is not a sign of failure, but a necessary component of growth—provided it is managed with intention. When leaders avoid difficult conversations, they allow small misalignments to calcify into existential threats. By implementing structured feedback loops and fostering a shared language for disagreement, founders can transform potential volatility into a catalyst for innovation and deep-seated trust.The ability to delegate is another critical threshold that separates stagnant startups from scalable enterprises. Patrick recounts the cautionary tale of successful founders who remain bogged down in administrative minutiae, such as booking their own travel, long after they should have focused on high-level strategy. This failure to let go often stems from a lack of "purpose-driven" hiring; when a team is not aligned with the core mission, trust remains elusive. Effective delegation requires a leader to communicate the "why" behind every task, empowering the team to take ownership of the outcomes rather than just following a checklist. This shift moves the founder from a micromanager to a visionary, freeing up the mental bandwidth required to navigate a rapidly changing, AI-driven market.Perhaps the most vital insight Patrick offers is the direct link between purpose and the prevention of burnout. In a world where the startup life is often likened to "chewing glass," resilience is fueled by a sense of contribution and service. Burnout rarely occurs because of hard work alone; it happens when that work is fundamentally misaligned with an individual's core values. Using frameworks like the Japanese Ikigai method, leaders can audit their own lives and organizations to ensure their professional pursuits honor their whole selves. When a company's mission is clearly articulated and lived through everyday behaviors, it becomes a magnet for top-tier talent and a compass that guides the organization through the inevitable emotional rollercoasters of entrepreneurship.About Patrick MorkPatrick Mork is an Executive Advisor to CEOs and Senior Leadership Teams, a leadership speaker, and the host of the Mork Unfiltered podcast. With a career spanning roles as a tech founder and three-time CMO, he specializes in helping leaders navigate change, find their purpose, and build high-performing cultures. He is the author of Step Back and Leap, a book designed to help professionals unlock their potential and lead more meaningful lives.About Patrick Mork LLCPatrick Mork LLC provides executive coaching, leadership workshops, and advisory services tailored for founders and senior executives in the tech sector and beyond. The firm focuses on the intersection of human-centered leadership and business performance, helping organizations define their purpose and develop the "soft skills" necessary for sustainable scaling and resilience.Links Mentioned in This EpisodePatrick Mork LLC Website: www.patrickmork.comPatrick Mork on LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/patrickmorkofficialKey Episode HighlightsPurpose as a Competitive Advantage: Why purpose-driven companies attract higher-quality talent and maintain greater resilience during market downturns.The Danger of Avoiding Conflict: How unresolved co-founder friction can quietly erode a company's foundation and how to address it proactively.The Ikigai Method for Leaders: Using this Japanese framework to align professional goals with personal values to prevent burnout.The "Chewing Glass" Metaphor: Navigating the intense emotional highs and lows of the startup journey without losing perspective.Scaling Through Delegation: Moving beyond micromanagement by building a trustworthy team aligned with the company's mission.ConclusionThe conversation with Patrick Mork serves as a powerful reminder that the most durable companies are built from the inside out. By prioritizing self-reflection, mastering feedback, and anchoring every decision in a clear sense of purpose, founders can build a legacy that transcends mere financial success.More from The Thoughtful Entrepreneur

Spring football has officially arrived in Eugene, and on the latest episode of the Autzen Audibles Podcast, Matt Prehm, Erik Skopil, and John Evans dive into some of the biggest storylines shaping Oregon's 2026 offseason. The crew opens the show by unpacking its biggest takeaways from hearing Dan Lanning meet with the media, including what stood out most about his early thoughts on the roster, leadership, quarterback development, and the overall tone surrounding the program as practice gets underway. From there, the conversation shifts into one of the most fascinating exercises of the spring: trying to project Oregon's two-deep. On both offense and defense, there are a handful of spots that feel especially difficult to sort through right now, whether because of young talent, portal additions, position versatility, or unresolved competition heading into camp. Matt, Erik, and John each break down the spots that are toughest to call and explain where the biggest battles could emerge over the next several weeks. The episode wraps with a ranking of the Top 10 Oregon players entering the spring season, sparking debate about proven stars, rising difference-makers, and which Ducks are best positioned to shape the program's ceiling in 2026.

In the world of basketball, defense is just as important as offense. And when it comes to locking down the opposing team's top scorers, few players in NBA history can match the skills of 5x champion as a key member of the Showtime Lakers and 1987 NBA Defensive Player of the Year, Michael Cooper. In this video, Coop takes us on a deep dive into his top five defensive assignments. From guarding the likes of Larry Bird and Isiah Thomas, to shutting down George Gervin and Alex English, Cooper proved time and time again that he was one of the best defenders to ever step onto the court. But what made Cooper so special? It wasn't just his quick hands or his ability to read the offense. It was his commitment to studying his opponents and understanding their tendencies. Cooper knew that defense was about more than just stopping a player from scoring - it was about disrupting their rhythm, throwing them off their game, and forcing them to make mistakes. Throughout this video, he breaks down each of defensive assignment and provides insights into his techniques, strategies, and mindset. We'll see how he used his length and agility to frustrate top scorers in the 1980's NBA. So if you're ready to go inside the mind of an NBA defensive legend, join in and explore Michael Cooper's top five defensive assignments in NBA history. You won't be disappointed!

Send us a text by clicking this link!If you could summarize the end times in three words, here's our pick: Restrain. Release. Return. We open Scripture with the Fathers and track Revelation 20 as a map of history—Satan bound so the nations can be evangelized, the saints reigning as the apostolic Church governs, and a brief release that surrounds the camp of the saints before the Lord returns. That lens turns the chaos of our moment into something legible. The fall of paganism once silenced oracles and broke magic; the reverse image explains why occultism resurges, sanctuaries close, and temporal power shrugs at anything higher than itself.We connect the dragon's binding with Jesus' “strong man” parable and Paul's “restrainer” in 2 Thessalonians 2—what the Fathers often saw, in part, as the Roman order transfigured by the Gospel, a Christendom that held the line until it didn't. From there we take up the hard anchors: the Fathers are unanimous that Antichrist will halt public sacrifice, that he will be received by the Jews as a false messiah, and that the Jews will later convert. On the Temple, the tradition isn't unanimous—some read “temple of God” as the Church itself, others expect a rebuilt sanctuary—but either path exposes the same deception. Along the way we revisit Athanasius on the oracles going mute, Augustine and Bede on Ticonius's anti-church growing inside the Church, and why an apostate civilization can be worse than a pagan one.Then the lines get bolder through live caller questions: Is COVID's global suspension of public worship a rehearsal for the prophesied ban? How should we weigh claims about Trump, a rebuilt Temple, or a “great monarch”? What's the right way to compare the TLM and the Novus Ordo without dodging reverence? Where does patriotism fit when you feel no pride? And how do men carry real ambition without pride—working hard, staying ready, and letting God choose the moment?If you're hungry for clarity without hype, this conversation gives you a sturdy frame, a reading list to get started with the Fathers, and practical steps for holiness in confusing times.

In this episode of the ZenRUN Podcast, I chat with Jason Phillips – a runner whose journey into endurance running has been shaped by resilience, adventure, and some deeply personal challenges. Jason grew up in a sailing family near Newcastle in New South Wales. Boats, windsurfing, and life around the water were a huge part of his childhood. Running, on the other hand… not so much. In fact, as a kid he was a sprinter and absolutely hated cross-country running. Fast forward a few decades and Jason has found himself drawn to longer distances and big adventures. But his running journey hasn't been straightforward. In 2024 Jason was diagnosed with prostate cancer, which led to surgery and a long road back to fitness. During that time he lost a lot of the speed and conditioning he'd built over the years, and had to start again almost from scratch. Instead of giving up, Jason decided to channel his energy into something meaningful. He organised a run of the Cape to Cape Track in Western Australia, finishing on Anzac Day, raising funds and awareness for the Prostate Cancer Foundation. And now he's preparing for an even bigger challenge – the Delirious WEST 100 miler. This race carries a deeply personal reason. Jason is running it to raise funds and awareness for the Liver Foundation, after his father Brian passed away suddenly last year from liver cancer. It's a powerful reminder of how running can become more than just a sport. Sometimes it becomes a way to process grief, honour loved ones, and do something positive in the face of life's hardest moments. Jason also shares what it's really like to rebuild fitness after illness – including starting again with very simple training and learning to trust the slow process of base building. This conversation is honest, raw, and incredibly inspiring. Why You'll Love This Episode • Growing up in a sailing family and discovering running later in life • Why Jason hated cross-country running as a kid (and how that changed) • His prostate cancer diagnosis and the long road back to running • Running the Cape to Cape Track to raise awareness for prostate cancer • Training again from scratch after surgery • Why he's running the Delirious WEST 100 miler to honour his father Tips from Jason • Start small and build gradually. Even experienced runners sometimes need to go right back to basics. • Don't rush fitness after illness or injury. The body needs time to rebuild. • Slow training builds the foundation. Jason spent months running very slowly to rebuild his aerobic base. • Trust the process. Progress can feel frustratingly slow – until one day it suddenly starts to click. Jason's story is a beautiful reminder that running isn't just about races or times. Sometimes it's about healing, honouring people we love, and simply putting one foot in front of the other.

Ever heard an alcohol ad that tells you to “please drink responsibly”? Or a gambling ad that warns, "when the fun stops, stop”? Or been urged to reduce your carbon footprint?     The message is basically the same: These products and activities have risks. But mitigating them, well, that's on you. How did we get this idea that it's our personal responsibility to make a dent in big problems like climate change—and not the job of the government to impose regulations? That's the focus of the new book It's on You. Host Flora Lichtman talks with behavioral scientist and It's on You coauthor Nick Chater, about how he and his colleagues played a role in shaping a narrative of individual responsibility, and how to change it.  Guest: Dr. Nick Chater is a professor of behavioural science at Warwick University and coauthor of It's on You: How Corporations and Behavioral Scientists Have Convinced Us That We're to Blame for Society's Deepest Problems.

In 1980, two unidentified women were found murdered in California, one in Ventura County and the other in Kern County. For decades, they were known only as Jane Does, their names and stories erased by time. Their killer, Wilson Chouest, was identified years ago, but the identities of his victims remained a mystery.Now, through advances in forensic genealogy and relentless investigative work, both women have finally been identified, restoring their names after more than 40 years. In this episode, I revisited a chapter from the earliest days of The Book of the Dead, examine how Chouest was linked to the crimes, and explore how modern DNA technology is rewriting the endings of cold cases once thought unsolvable.This is a story of delayed justice, the power of identification, and why names matter.Connect with us on Social Media!You can find us at:Instagram: @bookofthedeadpodX: @bkofthedeadpodFacebook: The Book of the Dead PodcastTikTok: BookofthedeadpodOr visit our website at www.botdpod.comFeaturing a promo for Murder UnscriptedVeteran true-crime producer, Ed (Forensic Files, Cold Case Files, City Confidential) and his crime encyclopedia gal pal, Melissa, bring you the most immersive podcast in the genre - breaking down the barrier between fan and creator.Listen HereCramer, M.

Nationwide Whole Foods distribution. A seven-figure DTC engine. A five-person team. In this episode, Ashley Nickelsen, the founder and CEO of nutrition bar and chocolate brand B.T.R. Nation, breaks down the systems behind her brand's growth, from using DTC zip-code data to unlock retail expansion, to building a creative-first Meta ads strategy that drives real revenue (not just impressions).  She shares why velocity is her North Star metric, how she thinks about omnichannel as a flywheel – not separate businesses – how she evaluates when syndicated data is worth the cost, and why she chose to self-warehouse to maintain margin and operational control.  Ashley also unpacks her approach to pricing across channels, portfolio expansion beyond a single hero SKU, and constant creative testing in one of grocery's most competitive categories.  Show notes: 0:20: Ashley Nickelsen, Founder & CEO, B.T.R.

She also details how B.T.R. approaches growth with constant iteration while keeping affordability and velocity in mind, and shares practical learnings on Meta advertising and how to pair digital attribution with retail data stories to win new accounts.

Host Ricky Sacks is joined by George Achiilea, TJ Ramini and Adam Nathan as we gather to discuss the task which is facing Igor Tudor of keeping Tottenham Hotspur in the Premier League. In his post-match press conference after Arsenal, Tudor said that the teams were in “two totally different worlds” on a “psychological and physical” level. The Croatian then mentioned in an interview that his side displayed a lot of “bad habits”. We debate whether the team decimated by injury can find a way of picking up results in the immediacy to stave off potential relegation. We also discuss Micky Van De Ven and the criticism which has been labelled against him since the derby and just how invested the available players are in getting Spurs out of the mess they find themselves in.I Independent Multi-Award Winning Tottenham Hotspur Fan Channel (Podcast) providing instant post-match analysis and previews to every single Spurs match along with a range of former players, managers & special guests.

In this powerful episode of Real Estate Breakthrough, host Christina Suter sits down with Vina to go beyond the deals and dive into what really determines success in this business: the six inches between your ears. Vina opens up about her journey from Clubhouse stranger to acquiring the company of the very mentor who championed her, the mindset work required to face distressed assets and difficult investor calls, and why she believes character matters more than any single deal. You'll hear Vina's raw, unfiltered truth about detaching self-worth from external validation, showing up as a leader even when you feel like a villain, and using her platform to create a future where women and minority leaders are so ordinary they're unremarkable. She also shares the origin story of acquiring Clever Investors, turning a mentorship into an acquisition, and why she's now offering a free masterclass on multifamily wholesaling, just as 2026 promises a wave of opportunity in distressed assets. Whether you're a seasoned LP, an aspiring syndicator, or someone trying to navigate the emotional rollercoaster of real estate investing, this conversation will leave you inspired, grounded, and ready to manage the most valuable real estate you'll ever own: your mind. #MindsetMatters #MultifamilyInvesting #WomenInRealEstate #VinaJetty #RealEstateMindset #Syndicator

In high school, a career and technical education program let her earn healthcare certifications that sparked real clinical interest. As an undergrad at Texas A&M, she sought academic rigor and built-in research while learning to ask for help sooner—through office hours, professional advising, and a premed society that brought advisors and medical schools to campus.She shares the toughest moments too: a rocky transition to college, being humbled by General Chemistry (but loving visual organic chemistry), and navigating a competitive premed culture by staying in her own lane. Inside medical school, she talks imposter syndrome, the fire‑hydrant pace of learning, and how Pomodoro, Anki, and visual tools on her iPad kept her grounded. She opens up about the stress of MMIs and virtual glitches, the relief of a Texas pre‑match call after three interviews, and the power of friends and family when things get heavy.If you're weighing how hard to push versus how smart to study, or how to keep your “why” front and center, Kaylah's candid reflections will help you recalibrate.What You'll Learn:- How to plug into advising and support even at large schools- Ways to manage competition by staying in your lane- Smarter study methods: Pomodoro, Anki, and visual learning- Handling MMIs when there's no feedback or affirmation- Keeping your why alive through setbacks and intensity

Why This Episode Is a Must-Listen Think managing family finances is all about spreadsheets and wills? Think again. "Money Talks: The Family Finance Conversations Nobody Is Having" dives deep into the real, emotional, and sometimes uncomfortable money talks that can make or break family relationships, and even impact your financial future. The episode delivers practical tips, expert perspectives, and real-life stories that will help you strengthen trust and open communication across generations. If you care about protecting your family and your money, this conversation is essential viewing.  Meet the Expert Panelists Dr. Moira Somers is a psychologist, family wealth consultant, and executive coach who specializes in the psychology of money, advising individuals, families, and institutions worldwide. She is the international bestselling author of Advice That Sticks and a faculty member at the UHNW Institute and Sudden Money Institute, and she is a leading voice on why financial advice succeeds or fails at the human level. Dr. Somers is a co-founder and Chief Learning Officer at Blackwood Family Enterprise Services. https://moneymindandmeaning.com Lynnette Khalfani-Cox, The Money Coach®, is the Founder of the Financial Influencer Network and a nationally recognized personal finance expert. She is the author of 16 books, including the New York Times bestseller Zero Debt and her latest book, Bounce Back: The Ultimate Guide to Financial Resilience. A former CNBC commentator and Wall Street Journal reporter with more than 1,000 television appearances, Lynnette helps families and organizations build practical, multigenerational financial confidence through her articles, media appearances, and the Financial Influencer Network's education-driven initiatives. https://lynnettekhalfanicox.com Scheduled but was not able to join due to travel delays. Bobbi Rebell, CFP®, is the founder of Financial Wellness Strategies and the author of Launching Financial Grownups, a go-to guide for helping (almost) adult kids become money smart. A former global business news anchor at Thomson Reuters and frequent media expert quoted by outlets including The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, and CNBC, she brings deep expertise at the intersection of money, parenting, and real-life decision-making. https://bobbirebell.com Key Highlights: 1. Breaking the Silence on Tough Conversations According to Dr. Moira Somers, many families avoid uncomfortable discussions about aging, health, and money—which only leads to bigger problems later. She encourages families to plan ahead: "If you have [these conversations] a decade at least in advance...you can be thoughtful and caring and have, you know, be candid about how hard it might be." Proactively talking about financial help, household changes, and even when to stop driving sets the stage for smoother transitions. 2. Family Loans: More Than Money on the Line Lynnette Khalfani-Cox sheds light on why family loans so often turn sour. She urges clarity: "If you know...whoever you're loaning money to has already not paid you back...take off the rose colored glasses." She notes it's vital to formalize these deals to avoid resentment and preserve relationships—because loans can impact family bonds for years, not just bank accounts. 3. Preparing for Legacy and Heirlooms Both panelists agree: settling an estate isn't just legal—it's deeply emotional. Transparent processes, open inventory, and discussing "the why" behind gifts and heirlooms help families avoid the heartbreak of sibling feuds. Dr. Somers adds, "We ask heirlooms and possessions to do things that they were never capable of doing." The episode explores how sharing your intentions openly—while you're still here—can bring families closer together. 4. Blended Families Need Extra Clarity Blended families face even more complexity. Lynnette Khalfani-Cox emphasizes the importance of communication, aligning on values, and using structures like prenuptial agreements and QTIP trusts to protect everyone's interests. Discussing obligations and honoring prior commitments sets the foundation for multi-generational wealth and stability. Call-to-Action One thing to do this week: start one conversation you've been putting off. It could be asking your parents where key documents are, setting expectations with an adult child, or clarifying a financial boundary. You don't need all the answers. You just need to open the door.

She shares how starting at UMass in biochemistry, discovering neuroscience, and building an early relationship with her premed advisor shaped smarter decisions—like delaying the MCAT and embracing gap years she once feared.We dive into the first MCAT attempt that fell flat (no schedule, cramming during senior year, few practice tests) and the 15‑point turnaround that followed: six months post‑graduation, three hours a day, AAMC full‑lengths every Thursday, and a real study plan. She details lining up letters before leaving campus, keeping in touch after graduation, and why not prewriting secondaries became her biggest application headache.Clinically, she moved from EMT certification and campus EMS to behavioral health sitting and a clinical assistant role in a pediatric ER—experiences that cemented her desire to practice. Finally, we cover interviews (including a surprise bartender question), eight invites, the first acceptance at work, and her closing advice: keep an open mind—and be kind to yourself.What You'll Learn:- How to build a productive relationship with your premed advisor- A realistic MCAT retake plan: pacing, practice tests, and scheduling- Why gap years and nonclinical jobs can strengthen your application- Finding schools by fit and mission instead of fixating on stats- Timing letters and prewriting secondaries to avoid bottlenecks

Ohio State's full schedule was released on Tuesday, complete with specific dates for each game. We already knew the teams the Buckeyes would play in 2026, so we were fully aware this was going to be a daunting slate. How daunting? Three teams that will begin the season likely ranked within the top-5 (at Indiana, at Texas, Oregon), two more that will be ranked within the top-15 (at USC, Michigan) and two more that will be ranked in the top-25 (at Iowa, Illinois). Whew, that's a doozy. However, Buckeye fans should still be confident about their team's chances in the 2026 season, and Dave Biddle and Matt Baxendell explain why on today's show. We also get Steeler-fan-Bax's take on new OSU offensive coordinator Arthur Smith (we know Biddle likes the hire) and more. That is coming your way on the Wednesday 5ish.
