I've got a LOT to say about last night's Elimination Chamber PLE and it's not great... but it's not all bad either as we got a MAJOR title match made for Smackdown, so the WWE title picture is getting interesting at just the right time.  Plus, NXT Stand and Deliver moves AWAY from WrestleMania weekend and why that's a good thing... no plans for a WWE Draft in 2026 and why the draft DOESN'T WORK anymore... AJ Styles going into the Hall of Fame and claims WrestleMania has lost some of its luster... a DEEP DIVE into the latest shocker with Netflix walking away from its acquisition of WBD to pave the way for a Paramount/Skydance takeover and breaking down what it could mean for AEW (and a lot more than just AEW)... The Hurt Syndicate coming back at full strength shortly... John Laurinaitis is back with a quote so crazy I can hardly believe he even said it... and if I had the book, who I would build WWE around for the next five years and beyond!Support my sponsors this week by using the links below!EXPRESSVPN ▶ Get an extra FOUR MONTHS FREE of the #1 trusted VPN at http://www.expressvpn.com/solomonsterBETTERHELP ▶ Get 10 PERCENT OFF your first month and give online therapy a try at http://www.betterhelp.com/solomonster to start being your best self.

Starting off in FOLLOW UP, we've got a tax economist who actually made money betting against the "efficiency" of Elon's budget-slashing fever dreams, while Tesla is busy trying to dodge a $243 million jury verdict for an Autopilot-assisted fatality. Not content with being legally liable, Tesla is also suing the California DMV because they're offended someone called their "Autopilot" and "Full Self-Driving" marketing deceptive—ironic, since Jack Dorsey just "proactively" halved the staff at Block to make room for more AI slop. Speaking of which, Goldman Sachs is here to remind us that all this AI spending added a grand total of zero to the US GDP last year, mostly because we're just exporting all that cash to overseas chip makers while 80% of execs admit the tech hasn't actually done anything for productivity yet.Moving into IN THE NEWS, Sam Altman had the audacity to compare ChatGPT's energy-sucking habits to the 20-year evolution of a human, though the internet wasn't exactly buying the "my bot is just like a baby" defense. Anthropic actually stood its ground against the Pentagon's demand for killer robots and mass surveillance, so naturally, the military just signed a deal to put Elon's Grok in their classified systems instead—because what could go wrong with an "edgy" LLM in the war room? Meanwhile, cities are dumping AI surveillance contracts as citizens start a literal "smash-the-snitch-box" campaign against Flock's license plate readers, Google's AI is busy inserting racial slurs into news alerts, and the White House is apparently harboring a staffer moonlighting as a racist "masterpiece" creator on X. We've also got Reddit being slapped with a $20 million fine in the UK for being lazy with age checks, while Discord and Apple scramble to build verification tools that hopefully won't leak your entire identity to a hacker in Belarus.In MEDIA CANDY, the Paramount-Skydance merger is leaving the industry in a cold sweat of "synergy" layoffs, but at least we're getting more Game of Thrones spinoffs and Star Trek reboots to rot our brains. Face/Off 2 lost its director, Ryan Coogler is taking on The X-Files, and Google wants to use AI to turn music into generic "lo-fi" background noise for the masses.Over in APPS & DOODADS, OpenAI is planning a 2027 smart speaker that literally watches you through a camera—because you definitely wanted a $300 Sam Altman-shaped eye in your kitchen—while the Dark Sky creators are back with "Acme Weather" for the low price of $25 a year.We wrap up THE DARK SIDE WITH DAVE with a deep dive into "Under Pressure" and Coruscant's urban sprawl, leaving us to reminisce about the days when KPT Bryce was the pinnacle of tech—back when "generative art" was just a fractal that took six hours to render.Sponsors:DeleteMe - Get 20% off your DeleteMe plan when you go to JoinDeleteMe.com/GOG and use promo code GOG at checkout.SquareSpace - go to squarespace.com/GRUMPY for a free trial.

On this episode of Breaking Battlegrounds, Chuck Warren and Sam Stone connect the dots between global censorship, financial markets, media power, and geopolitical instability. They tackle the Epstein files fallout, examining political double standards, media silence surrounding certain powerful figures, and what real accountability would look like. The conversation expands into the shifting media landscape, including a major acquisition that could significantly alter CNN and legacy news coverage in America. Mark Pashmfouroush of Holistic Resilience explains how the Iranian regime uses its National Information Network (NIN) to restrict access to information and silence dissent. He also details how activists are using Starlink terminals and VPN technology to bypass authoritarian control—and why internet freedom has become a frontline issue in the fight against totalitarian regimes worldwide. You can support Holistic Resilience here: https://www.holisticresilience.org/donation Financial advisor Gary Gygi joins the podcast segment to break down stock market volatility, AI's disruption of the tech sector, Trump's proposed retirement savings plan, and why Mexico has overtaken Canada as the top destination for U.S. exports. From geopolitics and digital censorship to market strategy and media consolidation, this episode explores the forces shaping the global power structure in 2026.

In Episode 161 of the Award Travel 101 podcast, Angie Sparks welcomes Justin Walter to share details from his recent family trip to Punta Cana. The episode kicks off with a highlight from member Megan, who creatively paid an $11,000 hospital bill using $200 Visa gift cards purchased at office supply stores—earning a stash of Ultimate Rewards points in the process. In news, Angie covers a 15% transfer bonus from American Express Membership Rewards to Avianca LifeMiles, while Justin shares that Emirates Skywards will no longer award miles on Condor-operated flights starting May 1, 2026 (though redemptions remain). Angie also highlights a 40% transfer bonus from Chase Ultimate Rewards to Virgin Atlantic Flying Club, and Justin reminds listeners that dozens of limited-time promos across major loyalty programs are ending soon.On the credit card front, Angie shares that her Barclays Aviator card will convert to a Citi Strata card, prompting her to apply early to secure a sign-up bonus—ultimately receiving an unusually generous credit line offer. She also grabbed a no-lifetime-language Hilton Surpass offer that includes a free night certificate, planning to leverage upcoming pool renovation expenses to meet spending requirements. Justin, meanwhile, is working through Amex Business Gold and Delta Business Reserve bonuses for status, while his Player 2 was denied for a Citi AA Platinum Select and is considering a Hilton card with elevated offers. They also preview a packed year of travel, including Phoenix, Morocco, Ireland, Australia, New Zealand, Puerto Vallarta, Vegas, Rome, and Japan.The main topic centers on Justin's family trip to Punta Cana, where they stayed at Dreams Macao Beach Punta Cana, booked directly through Hyatt for 29,000 points per night plus $60 per child. They flew nonstop on Delta Air Lines, paying a premium for the convenience. Justin notes this wasn't their first full-family trip, as grandparents joined them previously. The episode wraps with a practical tip of the week: don't believe every travel rumor you read online—especially when it comes to loyalty program changes.Episode Links:Amex to Avianca transfer bonusCondor drops Emirates EarningChase to Virgin transfer bonusPromos Ending soonWhere to Find Us The Award Travel 101 Facebook Community.

In the years leading up to the American Revolution, newspapers and pamphlets overflowed with essays signed "Publius," "Brutus," and "A Farmer." Those arguments helped shape a nation, but the authors' real names were nowhere to be found. Americans have long relied on anonymous speech to challenge the powerful, protect dissenters, and keep the focus on ideas rather than identities. That tradition has endured into America's digital age, even as anonymous speech has become more controversial. To explore America's history with anonymity, we are joined by Jeff Kosseff, a nonresident senior legal fellow at The Future of Free Speech and author of The United States of Anonymous. Preorder his forthcoming book, The Future of Free Speech: Reversing the Global Decline of Democracy's Most Essential Freedom.   Timestamps:  00:00 Intro   02:01 What is anonymity? 04:38 Anonymous speech in Colonial America 15:58 Does the First Amendment protect anonymity? 20:35 Anonymous speech in the Civil Rights Era  31:17 The internet and anonymity 35:44 Modern anonymity debates: DHS subpoenas, age verification, social media regulation, and VPN bans 51:53 Outro   Enjoy listening to the podcast?

Today's Poll Question at Smerconish.com: "Should an individual's Google searches be private?" A Pennsylvania Supreme Court ruling says you may not have a reasonable expectation of privacy in your general Google searches—especially if you haven't taken steps like using a VPN. Michael breaks down the controversial “reverse keyword warrant” that allows police to ask Google who searched for specific terms tied to a crime. Is typing into a search bar the same as voluntarily sharing information with a third party? Or does this decision erode a fundamental privacy right in the digital age?

Hospital Shutdown, Ransomware Surge, Fortinet Failures A hospital doesn't cancel chemotherapy appointments because of a “technical issue.” They cancel them because they've lost operational control. This week, the University of Mississippi Medical Center shut down its entire network after a ransomware attack disrupted systems — including Epic. Clinics closed. Elective procedures paused. Outpatient services halted. Emergency operations activated. Leadership described the shutdown as precautionary. But here's the real question executives should be asking: Why was a full network shutdown necessary? If segmentation is validated… If identity governance is enforced… If lateral movement detection is operationalized… Why does the only safe option become “turn it all off”? In this episode of Security Squawk, we break down what this incident signals about containment confidence, governance maturity, and operational resilience — not just in healthcare, but across every industry that depends on uptime. And we zoom out. Because UMMC isn't happening in isolation. According to TechRadar, ransomware groups have reached an all-time high in 2025. The victim growth rate has doubled. Qilin and other affiliate-driven operators are scaling aggressively. This isn't random chaos. It's industrialization. More fragmentation. More specialization. More execution discipline on the criminal side. Healthcare, public sector, and critical infrastructure are being economically targeted because downtime equals leverage. When systems go dark, negotiation pressure spikes. Then we connect it to something many leaders are still underestimating: Fortinet exploitation patterns. Edge vulnerabilities. VPN credential harvesting. Reinfection cycles months after patches were released. The vulnerability itself isn't the story. The response maturity is. Attackers are repeatedly probing whether organizations: – Patch fast enough – Rotate exposed credentials – Reset trust boundaries after compromise – Validate segmentation integrity – Rebuild identity confidence When those governance steps are skipped, attackers come back. That's not a tooling failure. That's a leadership failure. This episode translates three headlines into one hard truth: Ransomware is no longer just a malware problem. It's a containment confidence problem. For CEOs: If you cannot isolate an intrusion without shutting down revenue operations, your resilience model is fragile. For IT Directors: Active Directory recovery is not a restore-from-backup event. It's a trust re-establishment event. For MSPs: Client environments are operating in a denser criminal ecosystem. Tool stacking without maturity validation will not scale. For Risk Leaders: Financial exposure is no longer limited to ransom. Revenue interruption, regulatory scrutiny, and reputational damage compound quickly — especially in healthcare. We also discuss: • Why attacker communication often signals a second phase • Why affiliate ransomware models are accelerating • Why segmentation validation will become a board-level metric • Why detection speed does not equal governance strength Security Squawk exists to translate cybersecurity chaos into business reality — without vendor spin and without hype. If you value that kind of analysis and want to support independent, executive-focused cybersecurity conversations, you can back the show at: buymeacoffee.com/securitysquawk Your support helps us keep this live, timely, and unfiltered. Because criminals are already running maturity audits. And they invoice in operational shutdown. The question is simple: If it happened to you tomorrow, could you contain it — or would you turn the lights off?

Selon des informations rapportées par Reuters, le Département d'État américain travaillerait sur une plateforme baptisée Freedom.gov. Son objectif : permettre à des internautes étrangers d'accéder à des contenus bloqués ou supprimés par leurs propres gouvernements.Le principe serait relativement simple sur le plan technique. Le site fonctionnerait comme un VPN — un réseau privé virtuel. Pour rappel, un VPN fait transiter la connexion d'un utilisateur par un serveur situé dans un autre pays. Résultat : l'internaute apparaît comme naviguant depuis ce pays, ce qui permet de contourner certaines restrictions géographiques ou légales. Freedom.gov s'appuierait ainsi sur des serveurs basés aux États-Unis, sans enregistrer l'identité ni l'activité des visiteurs. En clair, l'État américain deviendrait lui-même fournisseur d'anonymat en ligne, un rôle jusqu'ici occupé par des acteurs privés comme NordVPN ou ExpressVPN.Le projet serait supervisé par Sarah Rogers, responsable de l'image des États-Unis à l'étranger. Présentée comme une initiative en faveur de la liberté d'expression, la plateforme permettrait d'accéder à des contenus jugés illégaux localement — qu'il s'agisse de discours controversés ou de propagande. Une approche qui s'inscrit dans la ligne de l'administration Trump, souvent critique à l'égard des régulations européennes du numérique. Mais en interne, le projet susciterait de fortes réserves. Des juristes du Département d'État auraient alerté sur les risques diplomatiques : encourager des citoyens étrangers à contourner les lois nationales pourrait exposer Washington à des tensions juridiques sérieuses. Officiellement, le porte-parole du Département d'État affirme que « la liberté numérique est une priorité », sans confirmer les détails du dispositif.Côté européen, l'inquiétude est palpable. Kenneth Propp, ancien diplomate américain aujourd'hui chercheur à l'Atlantic Council, évoque auprès de Reuters « un tir direct » contre les lois européennes, notamment le Digital Services Act. Cette réglementation impose aux plateformes de retirer contenus haineux ou désinformation. Pour l'administration Trump, cette loi serait perçue comme hostile aux entreprises américaines. Dans un contexte déjà tendu — différends commerciaux, guerre en Ukraine, débats sur le Groenland — Freedom.gov pourrait devenir un nouveau point de friction. D'autant que des figures proches d'Elon Musk, farouche opposant aux règles numériques européennes, seraient impliquées dans le projet. Difficile, dès lors, d'y voir une simple initiative technique.

I spoke to UnhappyBen, head of growth and marketing at Peer (formerly known as ZKP2P) which is a service that allows you to officially delete Coinbase and every other centralized exchange account you may have. Peer is protocol that allows people to do P2P trading of crypto assets and fiat through neobanks like Revolut, Venmo, Wise, etc. while providing a high degree of privacy using zero knowledge proofs.In case you didn't see it, I spoke about the solution in a recent video of mine where I explained how I have been helping people send funds to those in Gaza using it. We discuss how exactly it works, the political implications of what they've built and what's coming next.This episode is sponsored by NYM, the world's most private VPN.

If you thought the internet was a dumpster fire before, the EU LAUNCHES SECOND INVESTIGATION INTO GROK because Musk's bot won't stop generating nonconsensual imagery. Meanwhile, META LARGELY FAILS TO PROTECT KIDS FROM AI CHATBOTS, proving that their internal safety checks are about as effective as a screen door on a submarine. If that doesn't creep you out, AFTER RING PRIVACY BACKLASH over police partnerships, a LEAKED EMAIL SUGGESTS RING PLANS TO EXPAND ‘SEARCH PARTY' from finding lost dogs to total neighborhood surveillance. Of course, REDDIT, META, AND GOOGLE VOLUNTARILY GAVE DHS INFO on users critical of ICE, because why stand up for privacy when you can just comply?In the news, we look at OPENCLAW, OPENAI AND THE FUTURE as the project's founder joins the Borg, even though META AND OTHER TECH FIRMS PUT RESTRICTIONS ON USE OF OPENCLAW because it's basically a security hole that can click your mouse for you. Peak stupidity has arrived with RFK JR'S NEW CHATBOT giving rectal dietary advice, while AI COMPANIES BOUGHT OUT ALL OF WESTERN DIGITAL'S HARD DRIVES through 2026, meaning you can't have storage because the bots need it more. Even VALVE ADMITS STEAM DECK AVAILABILITY IS AFFECTED by this memory hoarding. We also touch on STEVE BANNON SUED OVER MAGA CRYPTO SCHEME, LOS ANGELES COUNTY FILES LAWSUIT AGAINST ROBLOX for being a safety nightmare, and the fact that TESLA ROBOTAXIS REPORTEDLY CRASHING at four times the human rate. TESLA DODGES 30-DAY SUSPENSION by simply killing the word "Autopilot," while NEW YORK HITS THE BRAKES ON ROBOTAXI EXPANSION to keep the chaos at bay. Finally, POLYMARKET WITHDRAWS EXPLOSIVE ARTEMIS BETTING MARKET because betting on dead astronauts is too much even for them, leading the ETHEREUM CREATOR STARTING TO THINK THIS WHOLE PREDICTION MARKET THING MIGHT BE GAMBLING. As NEVADA SUES KALSHI and Jack Dorsey oversees INSIDE THE ROLLING LAYOFFS AT JACK DORSEY'S BLOCK—using AI to summarize the misery of his employees—just remember: YOU'LL BE SORRY WHEN YOU HEAR WHAT JUSTIN BIEBER'S $1.3 MILLION BORED APE IS WORTH NOW. Hint: it's twelve grand.In this week's MEDIA CANDY, we've got FREE BERT, KAT WILLIAMS: THE LAST REPORT, and the eternal return of SHREK. We're checking out MARK ROBER on Netflix, the return of MONARCH: LEGACY OF MONSTERS, and the trailer for GOOD LUCK, HAVE FUN, DON'T DIE. If you need a soundtrack for the apocalypse, Thomas Benjamin Wild Esq has you covered with STOP USING GENERATIVE A.I and the Gen-X anthem I'VE NO MORE F*S TO GIVE!.Moving to APPS & DOODADS, OBSIDIAN TO NOTES is a $14 well spent, unlike CURSOR and VISUAL STUDIO CODE which are getting bogged down by slow models. APPLE'S AI PENDANT sounds like a watered-down Humane pin that relies on your phone to think, and APPLE PODCASTS AND VIDEO remains a pipe dream because bandwidth costs money. We've reached the point where THERE'S A GRIM NEW EXPRESSION: “AI;DR” for things not worth reading, and THERE'S A NEW TERM FOR WORKERS FREAKING OUT over being replaced—AIRD, or AI Replacement Dysfunction—which is basically the low-grade panic of being made obsolete by a machine that thinks bananas go in your bum.AT THE LIBRARY, we're thumbing through CLEAVE THE SPARROW, THE REGICIDE REPORT by Charles Stross, and Robin Ince being NORMALLY WEIRD AND WEIRDLY NORMAL.Then we descend into THE DARK SIDE WITH DAVE, where the Muppets are taking over with THE MUPPET SHOW and MUPPETS NOW. We catch the latest on THE MANDALORIAN AND GROGU and TOY STORY 5, while tracking the PENTAGON PIZZA INDEX to see if war is breaking out. For the kids, we look at a 3D PRINTER / ENTRY LEVEL FOR KIDS like the Bambu Lab A1, and for the nerds, A STAR WARS-CENTRIC RSS FEED and a NEAT IDEA FOR AN RSS READER, “CURRENT,” which lets news drift away like water under a bridge. We wrap it all up with some HORROR IN UNDER TWO MINUTES and IMPECCABLE COVERS OF 80S SYNTH MUSIC, because at least the 80s had better soundtracks than this AI-generated nightmare.Sponsors:DeleteMe - Get 20% off your DeleteMe plan when you go to JoinDeleteMe.com/GOG and use promo code GOG at checkout.SquareSpace - go to squarespace.com/GRUMPY for a free trial.

In Episode 160 of the Award Travel 101 podcast, Angie Sparks welcomes Claudia Corral and Adrian Pagan from ExpertFlyer to discuss the evolution of one of the original tools in the award travel space. Angie reflects on how, before modern award search engines existed, travelers had to manually check airline sites or rely on ExpertFlyer alerts—often needing to understand complex fare classes to make it work. Now under Red Ventures, the platform has been modernized with a new mobile experience, improved alerts, and upgraded technology aimed at making the tool both more powerful for frequent flyers and more approachable for newcomers.The episode also covers current travel news and community highlights. Elevated offers on Southwest Airlines personal credit cards include up to 40,000 Rapid Rewards points plus a Companion Pass valid through February 2027, while Marriott Bonvoy launched a promotion awarding 2,500 bonus points per stay and bonus Elite Night Credits for stays at unique brands through May 10, 2026 (registration required). In the group discussion, members debated their top “keeper” credit cards, with The Platinum Card from American Express and the Chase Sapphire Preferred frequently mentioned.Claudia and Adrian clarify that ExpertFlyer isn't a points-search engine, but rather a comprehensive flight intelligence platform. It provides real-time seat maps, detailed fare class availability, upgrade space (notably valuable for American Airlines systemwide upgrades), flight schedules, fare rules, and tools like minimum connection times and visa information. Designed for frequent travelers, agents, and families alike, the platform encourages users to master one feature at a time, search flights segment by segment, and set strategic alerts. Looking ahead, the team is focused on improving award and upgrade searches—especially for American Airlines—enhancing seat maps, and refining alerts. A new AI-powered flight status insight feature also translates airline jargon into plain English to help travelers better understand delays or cancellations and potentially support compensation claims.Expert Flyer is offering a promo code so that AwardTravel101 listeners get 30% off an ExpertFlyer Premium Yearly account, the insider tool elite travelers use to fly smarter.Choose Premium Yearly account and use promo code ATPodcast30 at checkout.

LaLiga de fútbol ha cumplido su amenaza y ahora va a por las VPN pero, curiosamente, sólo a por las de pago. El bloqueo que quieren aplicar no va a ser efectivo, pero sin duda es el primer paso para que les permitan bloquear completamente las VPN en España. Y mientras tanto, llega el presidente de EE.UU. con una de sus locas ideas.

I spoke to Boris Mamlyuk, co-founder of Clean App an AI-powered, crowdsourced environmental app designed for users to report waste and hazards in real-time, essentially a system for reporting civic feedback. I had him on to talk about the app which boasts over 1 million installs, his critique of the crypto libertarian project's capture by Wall Street interests, and how decentralized technologies can strengthen the civic sphere against both state surveillance and corporate data monopolies.

We kick things off in FOLLOW UP with the ongoing "nuclear war" between Automattic and WP Engine, where discovery has revealed Matt Mullenweg's alleged hit list of competitors and a desperate attempt to bully payment processors—because nothing says "open source" like an eight-percent royalty shakedown. Meanwhile, the Harvard Business Review confirmed what we already knew: AI isn't reducing our work; it's just compressing it until we're all working through lunch and burning out faster while Polymarket turns our collective brain rot into a literal "attention market" where you can bet on Elon's mindshare.Transitioning to IN THE NEWS, Elon has officially pivoted SpaceX from Mars to the Moon, presumably because building a "self-growing lunar city" is easier than admitting the Red Planet is hard, though his xAI all-hands rant about "ancient alien catapults" suggests he's been staring at the sun too long. Between X allegedly taking blue-check lunch money from sanctioned Iranian leaders, Meta facing trials for creating "predator-friendly hunting grounds," and Russia finally pulling the plug on WhatsApp, the internet is looking more like a digital dumpster fire than ever. Add in Discord leaking 70,000 government IDs, OpenAI shoving ads into ChatGPT while safety researchers flee the building like it's on fire, and a "cognitive debt" crisis eroding our ability to think, and you've got a recipe for a tech-induced psychosis that even crypto-funded human trafficking can't outpace.In MEDIA CANDY, we're wondering about the soft-core porn intro in the latest Star Trek: Starfleet Academy while Apple buys the total rights to Severance for seventy million dollars—because in-house production is the only way to keep those ballooning budgets under control. Super Bowl trailer season gave us a glimpse of The Mandalorian and Grogu and a Project Hail Mary teaser, while Babylon 5 has finally landed on YouTube for free, proving that even 90s serialized sci-fi eventually finds its way to the clearance bin.Over in APPS & DOODADS, Meta Quest is nagging us for our birthdays like a needy relative, while Roblox had to scrub a mass-shooting simulator—because "AI plus human safety teams" is apparently just code for "we missed it until it hit the forums." Ring's Super Bowl ad for "Search Party" accidentally terrified everyone by revealing a mass surveillance network for pets that's a slippery slope toward a police state, and Waymo is now paying DoorDashers ten bucks just to walk over and close the car doors that autonomous tech still can't figure out.Wrapping up with THE DARK SIDE WITH DAVE, we dive into the Mandalorian Hasbro reveal where Sigourney Weaver's action figure comes with no accessories because her existence is enough of a flex. We explore the grim reality of "RentAHuman," where humans are paid pittance to pretend AI agents are actually doing work, and look at "Trash Talk Audio," which sells a $125 microphone made out of a literal old telephone for that authentic Gen-X "get off the line, I'm expecting a call" aesthetic. From Marcia Lucas finally venting about the prequels and a rare book catalog specifically for our aging generation, we're reminded that while the future is a chaotic mess of "GeoSpy" AI and corporate reshuffling at Disney, at least we still have our cynical memories and some free versions of Roller Coaster Tycoon to keep us from losing it completely.Sponsors:CleanMyMac - Get Tidy Today!

In Episode 159 of the Award Travel 101 podcast, Angie Sparks and Mike Zaccheo cover listener tips, loyalty news, and Angie's recent “actual vacation.” The highlight post addresses how to handle two-factor authentication (2FA) when traveling internationally, especially when using a local eSIM. Community suggestions include switching to authenticator apps instead of SMS and keeping your primary line active for texts and calls while using an eSIM for data. In the news, they discuss a new United Business card offer (100,000 miles plus 2,000 PQP), Air Canada adding ITA Airways as a distance-based redemption partner, a targeted Marriott Bonvoy points purchase bonus, and several loyalty promotions set to expire. They also share updates on their current credit card strategies and upcoming trips.The main topic centers on Angie's first true vacation in years. After initially considering a resort stay in Anguilla, she and her husband opted for a seven-night Norwegian Cruise Line sailing out of San Juan with a port stop each day. They intentionally limited excursions, choosing instead to relax—reading, enjoying the sun, and unplugging. Angie strategically used a mix of cash, points, and credit card perks to offset costs, including Ultimate Rewards points to book the cruise through Chase Travel, free night certificates at the Caribe Hilton for a pre-cruise stay, and various statement credits for rides, dining, and lounge access. She also highlights how her Southwest Priority card delivered outsized value under the airline's new seat assignment policy, saving nearly $500 on seat selection and baggage fees. While the trip delivered the relaxation they wanted, Angie notes some declines in NCL's onboard experience and wouldn't necessarily recommend that specific ship in the future.Episode LinksUnited Business card offerAir Canada/ ITA partnershipMarriott buy points promoWhere to Find Us The Award Travel 101 Facebook Community.

We speak because we are afraid to be still. We speak because silence exposes us. We speak because when the mouth closes the heart begins to make noise and that noise is often unbearable. The Fathers knew this long before psychology gave it names. They knew that speech is not neutral. It is not just communication. It is an outflow of what is ruling the inner world. Every word carries the weight of the heart behind it. This is why Abba Pambo could stand at death and say that he had not repented of a single word and yet also say that he had not even begun to serve God. He knew what speech costs. He knew how easily a careless phrase can wound another, harden the self or invite the demons into the space between people. He did not trust his own clarity. He waited. He let months pass rather than speak a word that was not born from God. That kind of restraint feels almost inhuman to us. We live in a world that rewards immediacy. We are trained to answer quickly, react quickly, express quickly, post quickly, correct quickly. But speed is not truth. Speed is often panic wearing a clever face. The monk who waits to speak is not slow. He is standing before God inside himself. He is listening for something that is not his own. The Elder says that a man can be silent with his lips and loud with his heart. That is the most damning line in this whole section. You can say nothing and still be screaming. You can be quiet and still be condemning everyone around you. You can appear peaceful while your mind is devouring your brothers. Another man can speak all day and yet remain silent because he refuses to let his words become weapons, judgments or self display. Silence is not a style. It is a spiritual state. Idle talk is not mostly obscene or stupid. It is unnecessary. It is speech that does not serve salvation. It is talk that fills the space so we do not have to face what is happening inside. We speak about bodies and opinions and events and annoyances and plans because these are safer than the truth of our hearts. The moment we speak about what is good we discover how quickly evil slips in. Pride sneaks into holy words. Comparison sneaks into spiritual conversation. The self sneaks into everything. This is why the Elder answers the brother who wants a word to be saved with something that sounds almost trivial. Do not hasten to speak before you consider what you are going to say. That is not etiquette. That is warfare. To pause before speaking is to interrupt the automatic rule of the ego. It is to refuse to let the tongue be driven by irritation, hunger for recognition or the need to be right. It is to create a small space where God might enter. Most of what we say is not meant to help anyone. It is meant to regulate ourselves. We speak to soothe anxiety. We speak to discharge frustration. We speak to draw attention. We speak to feel real. We speak to avoid the ache of not being in control. The mouth becomes a narcotic. The more we use it the less we notice how enslaved we are to it. This is why the Fathers are so severe. They are not moralizing. They are diagnosing a sickness. The soul that cannot keep watch over its words cannot keep watch over its thoughts. The heart that pours itself out through constant speech cannot remain gathered before God. It leaks. It disperses. It becomes weak. The tragedy is that we confuse expression with honesty. We think that saying what we feel is the same as bringing it to God. It is not. Most of the time it just feeds the feeling. It strengthens the pattern. It builds a little kingdom around the self. We call it authenticity but it is often captivity. The monk learns slowly and painfully that every word either bends him toward God or bends him toward himself. There is no neutral speech. Either it deepens prayer or it corrodes it. Either it builds communion or it sows division. Either it creates space for grace or it fills the room with ego. This is why the saint waits. This is why the Elder warns. This is why the Fathers tremble before idle talk. They have seen what words do to the heart. They have watched souls unravel because the mouth was never taught to kneel. To learn silence is not to become mute. It is to become true. It is to let God have the first and last word inside you. And until that happens every sentence we speak is a small gamble with our soul. --- Text of chat during the group: 00:00:31 Fr. Charbel Abernethy: Page 353 00:01:32 Fr.

In this week's FOLLOW UP, Bitcoin is down 15%, miners are unplugging rigs because paying eighty-seven grand to mine a sixty-grand coin finally failed the vibes check, and Grok is still digitally undressing men—suggesting Musk's “safeguards” remain mostly theoretical, which didn't help when X offices got raided in France. Spain wants to ban social media for kids under 16, Egypt is blocking Roblox outright, and governments everywhere are flailing at the algorithmic abyss.IN THE NEWS, Elon Musk is rolling xAI into SpaceX to birth a $1.25 trillion megacorp that wants to power AI from orbit with a million satellites, because space junk apparently wasn't annoying enough. Amazon admits a “high volume” of CSAM showed up in its AI training data and blames third parties, Waymo bags a massive $16 billion to insist robotaxis are working, Pinterest reportedly fires staff who built a layoff-tracking tool, and Sam Altman gets extremely cranky about Claude's Super Bowl ads hitting a little too close to home.For MEDIA CANDY, we've got Shrinking, the Grammys, Star Trek: Starfleet Academy's questionable holographic future, Neil Young gifting his catalog to Greenland while snubbing Amazon, plus Is It Cake? Valentines and The Rip.In APPS & DOODADS, we test Sennheiser earbuds, mess with Topaz Video, skip a deeply cursed Python script that checks LinkedIn for Epstein connections, and note that autonomous cars and drones will happily obey prompt injection via road signs—defeated by a Sharpie.IN THE LIBRARY, there's The Regicide Report, a brutal study finding early dementia signals in Terry Pratchett's novels, Neil Gaiman denying allegations while announcing a new book, and THE DARK SIDE WITH DAVE, vibing with The Muppet Show as Disney names a new CEO. We round it out with RentAHuman.ai dread relief via paper airplane databases, free Roller Coaster Tycoon, and Sir Ian McKellen on Colbert—still classy in the digital wasteland.Sponsors:DeleteMe - Get 20% off your DeleteMe plan when you go to JoinDeleteMe.com/GOG and use promo code GOG at checkout.SquareSpace - go to squarespace.com/GRUMPY for a free trial.
