France Has Fallen. Now for Old Trafford.Villa win 1-0 in Lille to take control of the Europa League tie — but the harder test arrives Sunday.In this double-header episode, the show analyses Villa's controlled but unconvincing win in France — the goal, the Watkins miss that should have killed the tie, and the moment John McGinn walked off the bench and immediately reminded everyone what Villa have been missing.Then it's forward to Sunday and a trip to Old Trafford, where the show sets out exactly why this fixture matters beyond three points, and why, despite United's impressive form under Carrick, this may be the moment Villa's season turns.Plus the MOMS panel prediction for Old Trafford, and a Tim Sherwood comparison that will not be retracted.UTVCheck out the best current deals on Aston Villa MerchandiseBecome a MOMS Member for ad-free & extra shows - MOMS MembershipJoin the show's listener Facebook group The Mad Few.Credits:David Michael - @myoldmansaid | Chris Budd - @BUDD_music / Phillip Shaw - @prsgameThis Podcast has been created and uploaded by My Old Man Said.

Marc Watkins shares about cultivating skepticism and curiosity in an age of AI on Episode 613 of the Teaching in Higher Ed podcast. Quotes from the episode I do think online education is going to be the focal point for this next year, and how it can survive with an agentic AI.

Part two of our segment with Knoxville Economic Development Director Christopher Watkins discussing city project updates.

For a while, it looked like Villa might just make a fight of it against Chelsea at Villa Park.The opening goal was exactly what the team needed. Quick tempo, Douglas Luiz breaking forward, Bailey finally receiving the ball in space, and a sharp finish by Luiz to cap a rare moment of attacking fluency.It was the type of move Villa have been missing.Then came the moment that changed the night.Watkins thought he had put Villa 2–1 ahead after a brilliant breakaway move involving Morgan Rogers. The celebrations were long enough to believe momentum had shifted. Then the VAR check arrived, the goal was ruled out, and the momentum would soon shift in Chelsea's favour.Chelsea scored before half-time and from that point the balance was gone.The second half exposed the structural issues Villa have been carrying for weeks. Chelsea repeatedly clipped passes in behind Villa's high line, with Enzo Fernández dictating play and wide players stretching the defence. Once the pressure mounted, Villa's resistance faded quickly.The final scoreline reflected the underlying numbers. Chelsea's expected goals approached four, a rare figure in a game Villa never truly regained control of.Yet the wider picture remains strangely open.Despite defeats and inconsistent performances, the Champions League race continues to wobble around them. Rivals are dropping points too.But Villa's buffer is effectively now gone.If Villa are to stay in the race, they need to turn their form around pronto.UTVCheck out the best current deals on Aston Villa MerchandiseGET AD-FREE SHOWS and JOIN MATCH CLUBGet ad-free shows and extra shows, and join My Old Man Said's 24/7 Villa community, Match Club.For more details and to become a member, click here: Become a MOMS MemberJoin the show's listener facebook group The Mad Few.Credits:David Michael - @myoldmansaid Chris Budd - @BUDD_musicMy Old Man Said - https://www.myoldmansaid.comThis Podcast has been created and uploaded by My Old Man Said.

While Kyle is off in Tokyo chasing World Major dreams, guest host Lisa Watkins (The Behind the Bib Podcast out of Huntsville, Alabama) grabs the mic for a full review of the Every Woman's Marathon, a traveling marathon built to make runners feel seen, supported, and wildly welcomed, especially first-timers. Lisa breaks down what makes the event unique, from year-long communication and pop-up runs to an expo that's basically a runner-care theme park (Rabbit gear everywhere, free coffee, yoga, braiding, and “they thought of everything” amenities). Then she gets real about race day in Scottsdale: bus gridlock drama, a “net downhill” course that turned wet, concrete-heavy, and surprisingly hilly, a brutal late climb, rising temps into the 80s, and cramps that made miles 20+ a survival story. She also dishes on the finish-line layout (a little chaotic), the difference in crowd energy compared to Savannah, and why the afterparty absolutely shines with recovery stations, PT help, food, and a legit concert. Lisa wraps with what the race stands for, a generous 7:45 cutoff, the next destination ******** in February 2027, and a handful of race recs that deserve a spot on our calendars.

In this episode, Dr Watkins interviews Tony as he shares a raw story of surrender and transformation after our guest asked God if they could live without their possessions—only to lose their home in a forest fire weeks later. What began as devastation became a powerful journey of refinement as we explore how trials, pruning seasons, and waiting shape our faith and calling. We talk honestly about the struggle to let go, why self-discipline often fails, and the courage it takes to trust God with personal change, while reminding listeners that hearing God's voice is closer and simpler than many think. This episode offers hope to anyone walking through their own fire, encouraging them to trust the process and believe that even in loss, God is creating something beautiful.

In this live broadcast (recorded on February 24th) from the floor of the MoneyShow in Las Vegas, we sit down with TG Watkins, Director of Stocks at Simpler Trading and Editor of the Profit Pilot. TG provides a candid look at his current market posture, explaining why he recently shifted to a 90% cash position and how recent price action is forcing a reassessment of short-term bearishness. The conversation dives deep into the technical "squeeze" currently defining major indices, the surprising resilience of small-cap stocks, and the rotation out of the "Magnificent Seven" into defensive sectors. TG also breaks down the "picks and shovels" AI trade, the recent volatility in precious metals, and why he avoids entering new positions immediately ahead of earnings reports. Key Discussion Points: Defensive Market Posture: Why TG moved heavily into cash and closed short positions after the S&P 500 and Nasdaq struggled to break below key weekly support levels. The S&P 493 vs. Mega-Caps: Analysis of the rotation into consumer staples (XLP) and utilities as the market finds balance outside of major tech names. AI and Energy Infrastructure: Exploring the strength in "side departments" like power producers (WOLF, BE) and software (IGV) that support the broader AI build-out. Commodity Volatility: Examining the "euphoric" move and subsequent digestion in Gold and the dramatic price swings in Silver and Copper. The Earnings Strategy: A look at why TG utilizes the hourly 15-minute timeframes to navigate post-earnings volatility in names like Meta (META) and CoreWeave.   Click here to visit the Simpler Trading website - https://www.simplertrading.com/ Click here to visit TG's site - Profit Pilot - https://www.profit-pilot.com/   ---------------------- For more market commentary & interview summaries, subscribe to our Substacks:  The KE Report: https://kereport.substack.com/  Shad's resource market commentary: https://excelsiorprosperity.substack.com/ Investment disclaimer: This content is for informational and educational purposes only and does not constitute investment advice, an offer, or a solicitation to buy or sell any security or investment product.

On today's Claret & Brew episode, we're going serious. It's time to address Aston Villa's lack of creativity up front and Ollie Watkins' form. Is it as simple to say the midfield injuries have hampered us, or should the remaining players raise their game to get the club over the line?

The One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA), approved July 4, 2025, made the opportunity zone (OZ) incentive permanent and made several significant changes to the program. One key change is that, effective Jan. 1, 2027, each state will designate new OZs. On this episode of the Tax Credit Tuesday podcast, Michael Novogradac, CPA, and Novogradac partner Jason Watkins, CPA, discuss these changes and how they will impact tax incentives and eligibility criteria for qualified OZ investors. Novogradac and Watkins explain where the program stands and discuss a variety of issues that require guidance or clarification from the U.S. Department of the Treasury, including the designation of new census tracts. The pair also discuss how Treasury will implement the transition from OZ 1.0 to OZ 2.0. Finally, Novogradac and Watkins discuss the various efforts of the Novogradac OZ Working Group to highlight potential issues and offer recommendations for implementation guidance in the form of three letters to Treasury.

Olivia Watkins (Frontier Evals team) and Mia Glaese (VP of Research at OpenAI, leading the Codex, human data, and alignment teams) discuss a new blog post (https://openai.com/index/why-we-no-longer-evaluate-swe-bench-verified/) arguing that SWE-Bench Verified—long treated as a key “North Star” coding benchmark—has become saturated and highly contaminated, making it less useful for measuring real coding progress. SWE-Bench Verified originated as a major OpenAI-led cleanup of the original Princeton SWE-Bench benchmark, including a large human review effort with nearly 100 software engineers and multiple independent reviews to curate ~500 higher-quality tasks. But recent findings show that many remaining failures can reflect unfair or overly narrow tests (e.g., requiring specific naming or unspecified implementation details) rather than true model inability, and cite examples suggesting contamination such as models recalling repository-specific implementation details or task identifiers. From now on, OpenAI plans to stop reporting SWE-Bench Verified and instead focus on SWE-Bench Pro (from Scale), which is harder, more diverse (more repos and languages), includes longer tasks (1–4 hours and 4+ hours), and shows substantially less evidence of contamination under their “contamination auditor agent” analysis. We also discuss what future coding/agent benchmarks should measure beyond pass/fail tests—longer-horizon tasks, open-ended design decisions, code quality/maintainability, and real-world product-building—along with the tradeoffs between fast automated grading and human-intensive evaluation. 00:00 Meet the Frontier Evals Team00:56 Why SWE Bench Stalled01:47 How Verified Was Built04:32 Contamination In The Wild06:16 Unfair Tests And Narrow Specs08:40 When Benchmarks Saturate10:28 Switching To SWE Bench Pro12:31 What Great Coding Evals Measure18:17 Beyond Tests Dollars And Autonomy21:49 Preparedness And Future Directions Get full access to Latent.Space at www.latent.space/subscribe

In this episode, we visit St. Isidore's in Watkins, Colorado, just east of Denver where a rural plot of farmland became a beautiful Romanesque church. Fr. Paul Robinson walks us through the rich history of the priory, from its origins in a strip mall chapel to the donation of 18 acres and the building of one of the Society's most beautiful churches. Now, that same community is answering a new call: to restore the church's aging structure, to pave the lot after more than two decades of use, and to build a proper school so their children no longer have to study in the basement. With a multi-year capital campaign underway and incredible momentum already, the prospects are bright for St. Isidore's.

Although the traditional Latin Mass is the most visible and public expression of the work of the Society, we are committed to defending Catholic Tradition in its entirety: all of Catholic doctrine and morals as the Church has always defended them. What people need is the Catholic Faith, without compromise, with all the truth and beauty which accompanies it. https://sspx.org

Watkins was a founder of the political organization Freedom, Inc. and one of the Kansas City Council's first two Black members. He was a vocal opponent of Highway 71 — although parts of the parkway were eventually named after him. An event at the Kansas City Public Library on Sunday, Feb. 15, will remember his full life and legacy.

In this podcast, Kyle welcomes Aaron Siri, a prominent legal advocate known for his work with the Informed Consent Action Network (ICAN) and Del Bigtree's Highwire, who has been influential in uncovering pharmaceutical industry practices. The conversation revolves around Siri's new book, 'Vaccines. Amen,' which critiques the almost religious zeal with which vaccines are regarded and delves into various controversial aspects of vaccine safety and policy. Siri discusses the deficiencies in safety testing of vaccines, such as the Hepatitis B vaccine trials involving infants, and highlights how the 1986 National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act shifted the responsibility of vaccine safety from manufacturers to the federal government, resulting in a lack of accountability. The conversation also explores the history and efficacy of the Measles vaccine, potential long-term health impacts of vaccines, and the broader implications of governmental and pharmaceutical industry practices. Kyle and Siri emphasize the importance of individual choice and informed consent in vaccination decisions, criticizing the lack of transparency and the ethical implications of government-mandated vaccines. The discussion concludes with reflections on the future of vaccine policy and the importance of maintaining personal freedoms and rights. Aaron Siri is the managing partner of Siri and Glimstad, where he focuses on civil rights, informed consent, class actions, and complex civil litigation. His work includes challenging medical mandates, defending parental rights, representing whistleblowers, and forcing government transparency, including litigation that compelled the FDA to release Pfizer COVID 19 records. Aaron previously practiced at Latham and Watkins and clerked for the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of Israel. He earned his law degree from UC Berkeley School of Law, where he served as Editor in Chief of the Berkeley Business Law Journal.   From Kyle: The Community is coming! Click here to learn more   Connect with Aaron here: Instagram Website Siri & Glimstad LLP   Our Sponsors: Let's level up your nicotine routine with Lucy.

Throughout US history, only three Black women—Shirley Chisholm, Carol Moseley Braun, and Kamala Harris—have given successfully recognized bids for the office of president of the United States. In A Black Woman for President: Shirley Chisholm, Carol Moseley Braun, and Kamala Harris(UP of Mississippi) author Dianna N. Watkins-Dickerson uses womanist rhetorical criticism to analyze the presidential announcement speeches of Congresswoman Shirley Chisholm, Ambassador Carol Moseley Braun, and then-Senator Kamala Harris. In close readings of each candidate's speeches, Watkins-Dickerson defines womanist rhetorical theory and its efficacy for researching Black female voices in the field of communication in general, and the presidential announcement speeches of Black women, specifically. Beginning with Shirley Chisholm's historic 1972 campaign as the first Black woman to run a viable campaign for the US presidency, the volume analyzes how Chisholm's speech set a precedent for future generations of Black women in politics by boldly asserting her right to lead, despite the multiple barriers of race and gender. The study then moves to Carol Moseley Braun's 2004 presidential announcement, exploring how Braun's speech navigated the intersections of identity, representation, and political ambition during a time when Black women in the Senate were still a rarity. Finally, the analysis culminates with Kamala Harris's 2020 presidential bid, focusing on how her rhetoric blended elements of Black feminist resistance and national unity in an era of heightened political and racial division. The volume highlights the ways in which Chisholm, Braun, and Harris drew upon their lived experiences and cultural legacies to construct powerful, transformative narratives and argues that their speeches not only expanded the boundaries of political discourse but also reimagined the possibilities for leadership in America. Ultimately, this study provides a rich, interdisciplinary framework for understanding how Black women have reshaped the political landscape through the power of their words. You can find Dianna N.

Therese Fessenden talks with design psychologist and product strategist Thomas Watkins (host of The Design Psychologist and Product-Led Growth Leaders) about why understanding the human mind is still a true superpower for designers, researchers, and product teams. They explore how products subtly shape our behavior and identity, why over-relying on templates and patterns can flatten experiences instead of differentiating them, the risks of personifying AI tools, and the practical ways practitioners can use psychology and AI together to automate the tedious parts of work while staying human-centered and creating products that truly fit into people's lives.

In this Afterthoughts episode, we unpack the case of Samira Watkins and talk through what stayed with us after telling her story. From the dangers of trusting the “safe” option, to the weight of circumstantial evidence, to the devastating impact Samira's loss had on her family — especially her young son — we share our honest reactions, lingering questions, and the parts of this case that were hardest to shake. This conversation goes beyond the timeline to reflect on deception, double lives, and what justice really looks like when a case is built piece by piece. Learn more about your ad choices.
