You know the feeling. What's wrong with me? I just can't. I don't know how. I've tried everything and nothing works for me. It feels like there's no way through. This week I'm walking you through three things that get you through, every single time. Creativity, specificity, and persistence. I'll show you exactly how they work using three real client conversations: a woman who asked the wrong question about her health while waiting on a biopsy, a client who swore she wasn't willing to stop overeating, and one whose business hit a slow season and felt completely out of options. None of these blockages are as solid as they feel. By the end of this episode, you'll have a way to prove that to yourself. In this episode: - Why "why haven't I committed" is the wrong question, and what it's actually doing to your brain - The one shift that turns a dead-end into a starting point - How "I'm not willing" is almost always a generalization in disguise - Finding one thing you can change in seven ordinary days - Why the first change isn't the finish line - The thousands of options hiding behind "there's nothing I can do" Get on the waitlist: The next DEFENSE Foundations cohort opens soon, and this is exactly the work we do inside it. We take the things you've decided are permanent and get creative, specific, and stubborn about them, together. Waitlist members hear first and get in first.

“We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars,” Oscar Wilde wrote in his 1892 play Lady Windermere's Fan. This week, Elon Musk managed — not for the first time — to be simultaneously in the stars and the gutter. SpaceX's IPO valued his rocket company at $2 trillion — making Musk, officially, a trillionaire, the richest person in the world by a very large margin. The space Musk — the defiant genius who bet everything on a reusable rocket and the promise of a cosmic monopoly — is astonishing. The Wall Street Journal called the IPO a Goldilocks debut with Musk starring as the three bears. But there is another Musk — the one in the gutter, promoting white nationalist violence from his platform on X. This week Musk not only stoked the anti-immigrant riots in Belfast but reiterated his support for the English white supremacist gangster Tommy Robinson. So is this another Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde, Robert Louis Stevenson's 1886 novella? Keith Teare, publisher of That Was the Week, certainly thinks so. While Keith is in awe of Musk's entrepreneurial genius at SpaceX, he seems to excuse Musk's support for Tommy Robinson's paramilitarism. “I'm not even sure I like him,” Keith confesses in his musings on “civilisation.” Nor do the rest of us. But I wonder if this good/bad Elon narrative is too convenient. There is an uncomfortable symbiosis between Musk's journey to SpaceX and to white nationalist violence. For all the utopian cornucopia of space, our earthly reality is one of scarce land and fear of immigrants — Trump, Tommy Robinson, and this weekend's Swiss referendum on capping its population at 10 million. For all the Muskian promise of cosmic abundance, today's Muskian politics is paranoid and exclusionary. So maybe it's not just Elon. Everyone these days is simultaneously in the gutter and looking up at the stars. Five Takeaways • SpaceX: From El Segundo Warehouse to $2 Trillion Juggernaut: SpaceX is 25 years old. It started in a warehouse near Los Angeles, in an area with a concentration of rocket scientists. Musk bet almost all of his Tesla gains on the idea of a reusable rocket — and nearly lost everything. Then a rocket worked. Since then: iterative improvement, the rockets getting bigger and more reliable, a virtual global monopoly on delivering payloads to space, Starlink (satellite internet that actually works at gigabit speeds), and NASA subcontracting its launches. Now: $2 trillion at IPO, Musk a trillionaire. Wall-to-wall applause from the startup world. Wall-to-wall pylon on social media. Both simultaneously true. • The Grimace vs the Applause: Andrew vs Keith's Media Diet: Keith says most commentators are grimacing at the valuation and Musk's net worth. Andrew says the serious press — the Wall Street Journal, even the New York Times — is largely applauding. The exchange reveals the media bifurcation: mainstream outlets cover the achievement; social media — X, Facebook, LinkedIn — is wall-to-wall outrage about a trillionaire in a world of growing inequality. Keith's verdict on Musk: he doesn't care whether people like him. Neither, in Keith's view, should we. You judge him not on likability but on criteria: civilization or net worth. Different criteria, different judgment. • California and Europe: The Failure of Government: Fareed Zakaria in the Washington Post: California is a case study in failed government. Andrew had Jonathan Weber on the show this week — City on the Edge, the historic dysfunctionality of San Francisco city government. Fukuyama is trying to be optimistic about Europe's liberal future. Keith's counter: Fukuyama ignores the structural problem — top-heavy EU bureaucracy that overrides countries, producing dislike of the EU in every European nation, even France, which built it. Populism, Keith argues, is not the disease. It's the symptom. The disease is twenty years of bad policy. • Bernie Sanders Finally Had an Insight: The Sovereign Wealth Fund: Sanders has proposed a sovereign wealth fund owning 50% of all high-growth AI companies, giving every citizen ownership shares. Keith, who last week said 50% wasn't enough, this week credits it as the first genuine insight Sanders has had. The kicker: David Sacks — arch right-winger, former PayPal Mafia, Andreessen Horowitz — agreed on his podcast and said it should be 75%. Keith's observation: when David Sacks and Bernie Sanders can agree on the direction, left-right labels stop helping. The question is just how to make capitalism's gains flow to everyone. • Planning Beats Complaint: Keith's editorial closer. The choice is not between liking Musk and hating Musk, not between celebrating SpaceX and resenting its valuation. The choice is between complaining and planning. John O'Farrell, former general partner at Andreessen Horowitz, resigned and wrote an op-ed in the New York Times: “We can't let my former venture capital colleagues buy off democracy.” Gary Tan organised an Asian-American reaction against San Francisco's school board and won. Citizens who act beat citizens who complain. That's the week's lesson. That's Keith's lesson. Andrew is away next week. About the Guest Keith Teare is a British-American entrepreneur, investor, and publisher of the That Was the Week newsletter. He is a co-founder of TechCrunch and Andrew's regular TWTW co-host.

De slotkoers van de grootste beursgang ooit is bekend. 160 dollar en 95 cent. SpaceX is 2.1 biljoen dollar waard en Elon Musk is biljonair. Bij OpenAI en Anthropic kunnen ze rustig ademhalen, want de markt is niet stuk. Integendeel: beleggers hebben opnieuw betaald voor de mythe van Musk en tonen zich bereid om verregaande bedragen te steken in de bizarre waarderingen van AI-bedrijven die dit jaar naar de beurs gaan. Tijdens het laatste uur van de beursdag maakten Donner Bakker, Jochem Visser en hun gasten een extra uitzending richting die laatste koers op de borden. Gast Johannes Smit, portfoliomanager bij het Centive Global Equity Fund van IBS, legt uit wat dit betekent voor de markt en voor beleggers. Hij bespreekt het verdere verloop van de koers nu er aandelen kunnen worden verkocht door insiders, terwijl indexen juist gedwongen gaan kopen. En hij legt uit waarom de verregaande zorgen van indexbeleggers wat hem betreft onterecht zijn. Gasten Joe van Burik en Ben van der Burg, techcommentatoren van BNR en makers van De Grote Tech Show, bespreken hoe dit bizarre bedrijf nu in elkaar steekt en hoe dat zo is gekomen. Natuurlijk moet Musk zelf ook nog even langs de lat worden gelegd. Is zijn effect op het universum nou netto positief, of negatief? Hint: er is een goeie discussie over te voeren.

What if everything we are told about the border crisis is completely missing the point? In this episode, Bill Thompson sits down with Gil Gillenwater, author of *Hope on the Border* and founder of Rancho Feliz. Over nearly 40 years of hands-on work on the US-Mexico border, Gil has discovered a radical truth: traditional charity doesn't work, and a wall cannot fix a crisis of dignity. Gil shares how giving handouts disempowers people, while creating structured opportunities allows families to lift themselves into Mexico's middle class, eliminating the desire to illegally immigrate. From trade-offs like swapping plastic trash for food tickets to transforming privileged American teenagers into "Guardian Warriors," this conversation flips the script on political rhetoric. It's an eye-opening look at what happens when we stop looking at the border as a political battlefield and start seeing it as a shared human experience.Get your copy of Hope On The Border by Gil GillenwaterAs an Amazon Associate, Now I've Heard Everything may earn a commission from qualifying purchases.Chapters:00:42 Why Traditional Charity Fails 01:20 The Real Driver of Immigration 02:55 Dwell on Yourself, Dwell on Misery 06:43 The Plastic Bag Experiment: Earning Dignity 08:42 From "Volunteers" to "Guardian Warriors 11:10 Evolutionary Baggage vs. Cooperation 15:37 The True Cost of the Wall 16:44 Common Sense Solutions for Border Policy 21:24 Breaking the Cycle: Dirt Floors to Rolls-Royce 24:20 How Service Transforms Privileged YouthGuest InformationGil GillenwaterRancho Feliz websiteSocial:YouTube Facebook Instagram TikTok2007 interview with Vicente FoxEasier, more confident everyday conversation: "The Everyday What To Say"For more intriguing and engaging interviews each week, subscribe now on:Spotify Apple Podcasts YouTube

Tot de sterren en daar voorbij. SpaceX is nu van de belegger: het ruimtevaartbedrijf is genoteerd aan Wall Street. Het is de grootste beursgang aller tijden. Deze aflevering hoor je wat er achter de schermen van deze beursgang gebeurt. Hoe de prijs tot stand komt, hoe de toekomst van het aandeel eruit ziet en waar het geld verdiend gaat worden. Ook gaan we je voorstellen aan Gwynne Shotwell. Dat is de vrouw die de dagelijkse leiding op zich neemt (en dus niet Elon Musk). Het is ook de aflevering waar we kijken naar andere, aanstaande beursgangen. Die van Anthropic en OpenAI. Is daar onder particulieren nog wel geld voor? En welke beursgang wordt het meest succesvol? Genoeg over beursgangen, laten we het hebben over overnames! Adyen neemt een Amerikaans bedrijf over. We kijken of ze dat verder helpt. Hebben we het ook over een mogelijke overname van ING, in België.

Hour 2 of the Friday 6-11-26 Bob Rose Show, on the anniversary of Ronald Reagan's ‘tear down this wall' speech, the real-world example of east and west Berlin, and the end of 20th century Soviet Union. Is the lesson of what was ‘torn down' now forgotten? Plus, all the morning's biggest news stories
Frank Vallejo grew up in Texas dreaming of serving his country. After six years as a police officer across two cities he was recruited to join the Border Patrol — and spent the next 18 years on the front lines of one of America's most complex and controversial assignments. In this episode of Locked In with Ian Bick, Frank pulls back the curtain on what border patrol work really looks like — from the human smuggling operations he dismantled to the major drug busts that defined his career. He breaks down exactly how smugglers operated and how agents spotted them, shares the heartbreaking stories from the job that never leave you, explains why the border wall actually increased security, and reveals how the catch and release policies of the early 2000s allowed millions of people into the country unchecked. This is the conversation about the border that nobody in the media is having. _____________________________________________ #BorderPatrol #TrueCrime #bordersecurity _____________________________________________ Thank you to RAYCON for sponsoring this episode: Upgrade your dad's everyday routine.

Voor het eerst sinds 2023 verhoogt de Europese Centrale Bank de rente. Volgens ECB-baas Christine Lagarde en haar collega's is dat nodig, omdat de inflatie op een veel te hoog niveau ligt. Boosdoener: de oorlog in Iran. Deze aflevering kijken we wat deze verhoging (en eventueel andere verhogingen) voor je aandelen betekent. Welke bedrijven er last van krijgen en welke er juist winnen. En wat de stap van Kevin Warsh gaat zijn. Je weet wel, de nieuwe baas van de Amerikaanse centrale bank. Moet hij nu óók de rent verhogen? Verder hebben we het over Elon Musk in Brabant. Die spreekt het personeel van ASML toe. Musk brengt veel potentiële orders met zich mee, maar levert ook veel gezeik op voor de directie. Het personeel zit namelijk niet op hem te wachten. Nu we het toch over Brabant en chips hebben: Nederlandse startups krijgen een zak met geld van de overheid. Het kabinet stel namelijk meer geld beschikbaar voor investeringen in deeptech, zoals chip- en kwantumtechnologie. Er gaat nog eens 360 miljoen euro naar het zogeheten Deep Tech Fonds. Ook hoor je over Ryanair. Dat denkt er aan om mensen te laten betalen voor het toiletbezoek. En we hebben het over Oracle. Dat heeft een goed kwartaal achter de rug, maar beleggers vrezen voor wat komende gaat. Vooral over de investeringen die Oracle wil doen.

(Part 2)עִיר פְּרוּצָה אֵין חוֹמָה אִישׁ אֲשֶׁר אֵין מַעְצָר לְרוּחוֹ:Length: 39 minutesSynopsis: This morning (6/11/26), in our Morning Mishlei shiur, we continued our analysis of yesterday's pasuk. After reviewing and refining our understanding of yesterday's main peshat, we spent most of the rest of shiur on Saadia Gaon. This led us into a related-but-also-tangential discussion about methodology, some of which was not recorded. We concluded with the Meiri, which included more methodological reflections about teaching.And with that, we have finished Chapter 25! I have now given shiur on every pasuk in Mishlei Chapters 10-25, and I can't wait to continue our journey, wherever we end up next!---מקורות:משלי כה:כחתרגום ופירוש רס"גמאירי-----The Torah content for this month has been sponsored by Meir Areman, l'zeicher nishmas Zelda bas Ziesel, his grandmother, whose yahrzeit is on the 21st of Sivan.-----If you've gained from what you've learned here, please consider supporting my work via Patreon, Venmo, Zelle, or PayPal — links below.

For longtime observers of the legal profession, here's a headline we wouldn't have expected a few years ago: “The Eight-Figure Talent Race for Supreme Court Lawyers.” According to Ryan Barber and Erin Mulvaney of The Wall Street Journal (gift link), superstar SCOTUS advocates—including former solicitor general Elizabeth Prelogar, now at Cooley, and former acting SG Jeff Wall, who recently joined Gibson Dunn—are commanding pay packages previously unheard of for appellate practitioners.For such a small and elite group, the Supreme Court bar has seen a striking amount of movement in the past few weeks. In April, Wall led a four-partner group that decamped from Sullivan & Cromwell to Gibson. A few days later, another leading high-court litigator, Kannon Shanmugam, left Paul Weiss and joined Davis Polk & Wardwell, where he now heads the firm's new Supreme Court and appellate practice group.What explains this flurry of movement in the SCOTUS space? Why are top firms investing so heavily in Supreme Court and appellate practices? And what broader trends might this reflect?I could think of no better guest to explore these topics than Kannon Shanmugam. Not only did he recently go through the recruiting process as a lateral partner, but he's now going to be doing some hiring of his own, as he and Masha Hansford build out what Kannon hopes will be “the very best appellate practice in the country.”Thanks to Kannon for speaking with me, and congratulations to him and Masha on their move to Davis Polk.Show Notes:* Kannon Shanmugam bio, Davis Polk & Wardwell* Kannon K.

The obstacles that keep showing up in a health journey are rarely as immovable as they feel from a distance. Uncomfortable to face sometimes. Worth avoiding sometimes. But almost never as hard as the version being built up in your head. Getting curious about what an obstacle is pointing at changes the relationship with it entirely. The path forward tends to open up the moment you stop circling and start facing what has been waiting there.

Aalberts keert, over twee weken, terug in de AEX. Het technologiebedrijf was daar jaren te vinden, maar verdween tijdens de coronapandemie. Om nu dus weer z'n comeback te maken. Het neemt het plekje in van koffieboer JDE Peet's, dat juist van de beurs vertrekt. Een aandeel dat in een half jaar al zo'n 40 procent is gestegen. Goede reden voor ons om het te hebben over dit aandeel. Blijft dit aandeel nu wél langer in de hoofdindex? En zit er nog groei in het aandeel. Hebben we het ook over een andere promotie, die van CSG. Het defensiebedrijf rolt de Midkap-index in. Verder staan we stil bij de beursgang van SpaceX. Het wil vrijdag 75 miljard dollar ophalen, maar kan 250 (!) miljard dollar krijgen. Geld dat vooral van particulieren komt. Zelfs van Chinezen, die op creatieve manieren de regels van de regering omzeilen. Ook staan we stil bij kwartaalrapportages. Moeten die niet verplicht terugkeren in Europa? En we bespreken de bizarre cijfers van TSMC. Die overschaduwd worden door een gerucht over nieuwe exportrestricties.

After four years of non-stop touring, Gracie Abrams didn't expect that new music would come to her so quickly, but she is coming back with the new album Daughter From Hell, out July 17, and is Vogue's June cover star. “You don't realize how your nervous system is kind of like running until you stop,” says Abrams as she discusses her latest album and cover shoot with Senior Features Editor Marley Marius and Global Director of Social Media Samantha Sussman on Vogue's The Run Through Podcast.“So, I had no plans in this case to jump in as quickly as we ended up doing it. But my collaborator, producer, and dear friend Aaron Dessner, who I've worked with for six years now… he has superpowers,' says Abrams. “And whenever we're in the same room, even if I do feel like silent to my core, whenever he starts playing something, it sparks my imagination.” While working on the album at Electric Lady Studios in New York, Abrams says the first single ‘Hit the Wall' came to her through intervention from a spirit. “I was a little bit late to the studio, which I'm very prompt and I was kind of having, just like an emotionally confused morning” says Abrams. “Do you know when you sometimes wake up and you feel as if you're being haunted by a spirit? Or like a relative who's no longer [alive] … Do you ever feel the energy as if someone's got their hands on your shoulders? Do you ever feel like you're wearing a little cape on your shoulders?” asks Abrams. “I kind of just felt like weighed down when I was walking to the studio and I started tearing up. And it was at this period where I wasn't crying very much. And I was like, ‘Something's blocking me, like what is going on?'” Abrams says once she heard a loop of what would later become Hit the Wall, all the pieces started coming together. “I very quickly felt like the sound exactly matched that hands-on-shoulders-cape feeling … And it was a nice place to put all of these, not like self-deprecating thoughts, but just all of the dark cloud energy into one place. And then when I was done with it, it made me feel like a teenager again, where I would write something and then … yield.” Also on today's episode, Chloe sits down with Marley and Samantha to discuss the news from over the weekend including the Tony wins and Dua Lipa's Italian wedding. They also talk about the American Style shoot that is part of the summer issue and listen to voice memos from two enthusiastic finalists. The Run-Through with Vogue is your go-to podcast where fashion meets culture. Hosted by Chloe Malle, Head of Editorial Content, Vogue U.S.; Chioma Nnadi, Head of British Vogue; and Nicole Phelps, Director of Vogue Runway, each episode features the latest fashion news and exclusive designer and celebrity interviews.

New here? Start with our Start Here playlist — five episodes that will change how you think about motherhood. You've tried the bins. You've tried the labels. You've watched the organization reels and bought the matching containers. And somehow, within a week, everything is a mess again. Here's what nobody told you: you're not messy. You've just been trying to use an organizing system built for someone else's brain. Cas Aarssen is a professional organizer, YouTube creator, and self-described recovering super slob. After years of failing at traditional organizing methods, she discovered that there are four distinct organizing styles — and once you know yours, staying organized becomes almost effortless. She's helped millions of people transform their homes by working with their brain, not against it. What you'll learn: Why traditional organizing systems fail ADHD and visual brains — and what to do instead The one question every organizing system should answer: does it work on your absolute worst day? The four Clutterbug organizing styles and how to figure out which one you are Why out of sight truly is out of mind for visual organizers — and why that's not a flaw The golden Clutterbug rule for shared spaces that stops the nagging and resentment cold How to start with your messiest spot and let your clutter tell you what system you actually need Why hooks, big labels, and no-lid bins work better than any fancy organizing system you can buy How to have the organizing conversation with your partner without it turning into a fight Why clutter attracts clutter — and the simple fix that breaks the cycle The Lego mat that will change your life (and your kids' cleanup habits) The 4 Clutterbug organizing styles: The Butterfly — visual and macro. Needs things out in the open to remember they exist. Out of sight truly is out of mind. Loves beautiful displays, hates hidden storage. The Bee — visual and micro. Needs to see things but also loves detailed organization. Color-coded files, labeled everything, things arranged just so. The Ladybug — hidden and macro. Likes things put away out of sight but in big broad categories, not detailed systems. The hider who shoves things in a drawer to clear a surface. The Cricket — hidden and micro. Loves detailed, out-of-sight storage. The person with the color-coordinated filing cabinet who knows exactly where everything is. "True organization is meant for your absolute worst day — so that you never have to catch up." Products mentioned in this episode: Lego play mat with drawstring — spreads out as a huge play surface, pull the string and everything collects into a bag. Find on Amazon. Life changing for kids' cleanup. Wall-mounted magazine rack or gold basket organizer — gets papers and bills off flat surfaces and onto walls where visual organizers will actually see them Ikea bathroom rod system with hanging buckets — keeps bathroom products off the counter and at eye level without taking up surface space Take the free Clutterbug quiz: Find out your organizing style and get personalized tips at clutterbug.me Resources mentioned: The Clutterbug Method — Cas's new course for organizing your own home with her coaching.

“Throw ideas at the wall” 是一种什么样的 “把主意往墙上扔” 的 “奇怪行为” 吗?其实不然!这个表达源于一句生动的俗语——“if you throw enough mud at the wall, then some of it will stick.” 它在工作和生活中,其实形容的是 “在未经深思熟虑的情况下,一口气提出一大堆主意,以此期待其中的某一个能碰巧奏效” 的做法。听节目,跟主持人菲菲和 Phil 学习如何使用这个有趣的表达。
Most leaders walk into uncertainty with a 15-point plan, but Karina Mangu-Ward argues that the plan is almost always going out the window and the leaders who admit that openly are often the ones people trust most. In this episode, Skot sits down with Karina, partner at August and author of Teams That Meet the Moment, to unpack the assumptions that keep teams stuck. They explore why humans are neurologically wired to crave certainty even when certainty is impossible, the difference between avoidable failures and intelligent ones, and why one of the most powerful things a leader can say right now is, "Here's what I don't know." Karina also introduces her Candid Comms framework, built around three deceptively simple questions that could change how you approach your next one-on-one. The conversation also tackles the goal-setting debate, the real cost of blame culture, and why strategy, superstar talent, and hard work alone are never enough. If your team feels buried in pressure, reactive, and stuck in a failure narrative when they should be learning, this conversation deserves your full attention.

Today's story is a fan favorite that was previously published as Episode 285. On a summer morning in 2001, a woman in Alabama woke up in a cold sweat – like she'd just had a nightmare. But the woman knew what she saw while she was sleeping was not a bad dream – it was real. So she grabbed her phone and made a frantic call.

They stepped inside, and they were absolutely shocked, because the woman really had led them to a horrifying crime scene.
