Outcome not yet known as of record date.• MiCA enforcement after July 1 - ESMA / Bull BitcoinBull Bitcoin is the self-custody-friendly example to watch, while ESMA's wind-down warning is the enforcement backdrop.

This episode of the PRmoment Podcast, hosted by Ben Smith with guest Andrew Bloch, reviews June 2026 UK PR pitch wins and M&A activity in the PR and wider marketing sector.Market sentiment and pitch environmentBloch describes the UK PR pitch market as buoyant and optimistic at the mid‑year point. Agencies are reporting record months, strong new‑business pipelines, and clients releasing healthy campaign budgets on top of retainers. Despite political and economic uncertainty, including wars in Ukraine and Iran and rising energy prices, there is a “heads‑down and busy” pitch environment. Investment is particularly strong in social, consumer, and experiential work, with agencies that can prove genuine commercial impact winning out.Notable pitch winsA series of high‑profile wins illustrate where spend is flowing:Delphi wins UK comms for Gen Digital (Norton, Avast, LifeLock, etc.), a $4–5bn revenue cyber safety and financial wellness group. Wild Signal secures the global remit after an 11‑way pitch, then brings Delphi in for the UK.Tin Man, Appella Advisors, and Gladstone Place Partners win National Lottery operator Allwyn, spanning consumer activations and corporate advisory, taking over from Brunswick.Wonderland secures Ocean Spray across earned, creator, social, and trade, reinforcing its strength in food and drink/FMCG.Red wins Grant Thornton's corporate comms to challenge conventions in professional services.Speed is appointed by Beko plc (Hotpoint, Whirlpool, Indesit, etc.) to oversee all six brands, building on a strong client of Brabantia, Post Office, Co‑op already Speed Clients.New agency Knock Three Times (founded by Kat Thomas) lands Westfield's consumer comms, with a client explicitly citing their “creative storytelling and AI‑era visibility” proposition.Shook wins Innocent's retained consumer press office, while Tin Man adds Yoplait; Boldspace wins Playmobil; and Smarts secures Costa Coffee.A clear pattern emerges: successful agencies combine sector specialism (FMCG, retail, lifestyle) with integrated capabilities (earned, influencer, social, retail activation) and a strong commercial/strategic narrative.M&A themesOn M&A, Bloch says the “M&A world is super busy”, driven by needs for scale, specialism, and social/creator capability:Accenture Song acquires Whalar, signalling how seriously big consultancies now take the creator economy and its projected $40bn+ value.LADbible Group buys a 75% stake in Uncovered for an initial £26m, aiming to combine publisher scale and insight with social‑first creativity, and to shift revenue towards more predictable, direct partnerships.Far on the Hill merges with Fourth Day to form an international tech PR agency across London, New York, Paris, and Manchester.Fleet Street takes a minority stake in KAM Insight in hospitality, potentially a strategic “try before you buy” move, deepening shared data and insight.Bacchus, a luxury lifestyle and hospitality specialist, is acquired by Mazarin Group, reinforcing the power of niche, best‑in‑class specialists.The long‑running Golin–Ketchum merger is finalised under the name Golin Ketchum, creating a large‑scale creative communications powerhouse within Omnicom, with Matt Neale as global CEO and Tamara Norman as global president.Across these deals, Bloch stresses that scale + specialism + strategic/creative clout are becoming decisive, while content alone is commoditising under AI pressure, pushing value into strategy, creativity, and data‑driven effectiveness.The podcast in quotes:Market mood & impact focus“The agencies that can prove genuine commercial impact are winning, Half two of the year is here. Let's get on with it.” – Andrew Bloch [0:02:35]On the M&A climate“The M&A world at the moment is super busy. There is nobody sitting still… there are deals happening. There is movement, and it is buoyant for sure at the moment.” – Andrew Bloch [0:03:14]On Delphi's Gen Digital win“This is a four to five billion dollar revenue business… a significant win for an agency of that age and size.” – Andrew Bloch [0:04:33]On Knock Three Times and AI‑era visibility“Knock Three Times offered something we hadn't seen elsewhere – a progressive proposition that puts creative storytelling and AI‑era visibility on equal footing.” – Andrew Bloch (quoting Westfield's head of marketing) [0:10:16]On publishers buying agencies & the social sector“This is a play for the future, and this will not be the first deal you will see in this space of this nature.” – Andrew Bloch, on LADbible–Uncovered and social agencies [0:24:28]On AI and commoditised content“Content is becoming very much a commodity service… AI is an enormous threat to any agency that is in the content space. The agencies that will survive… have the strategic relationships, the creative relationships at the top table.” – Andrew Bloch [0:23:31–0:24:28]On Golin Ketchum's ambition“Our ambition is to become the defining agency of the decade, and I love that, because it's a massive ambition.” – Andrew Bloch, quoting Matt Neale [0:33:39]

In this episode, Ray Cochrane unpacks how two colliding black holes revealed a whirlpool in spacetime, a direct detection of frame dragging hidden in the cleanest gravitational-wave signal ever recorded. Additional stories cover the James Webb Space Telescope, counting 16.5 million stars in the Cigar Galaxy, SpaceX rolling out Starship V3, deadly back-to-back earthquakes in Venezuela, GitHub fighting a California law that could break open source, and Meta engineering a battery narrow enough to live in a pair of glasses. – Want to start a podcast?

He recently graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science from Portland State University, celebrated with family in town, and launched a new site at rayc.world. That site links to a final-project study he built on collaborative filtering using podcasting data, hosted at cohort.rayc.world and drawn from OP3 analytics. He also plans to return to the show’s classic twice-weekly cadence on Mondays and Thursdays. From there, he goes deep on a new black hole discovery, then pivots through space, earth science, climate, biotech, open source, cloud infrastructure, and consumer hardware. Colliding Black Holes Reveal a Whirlpool in Spacetime Two black holes spiraled together, merged, and sent a gravitational wave rippling across the universe. Researcher Neil Lu and colleagues at the Australian National University found the fingerprint of frame dragging buried in GW250114, the cleanest signal LIGO has ever recorded. Frame dragging means a spinning black hole drags spacetime around with it, like a spoon turning in honey, except the honey is reality itself. Remarkably, the wave changed the distance between your nose and your ear as it passed, by far less than the width of a single atom.

Webb Counts the Stars in the Cigar Galaxy NASA released a striking new James Webb Space Telescope view of Messier 82, the edge-on galaxy nicknamed the Cigar Galaxy. Because Webb sees in infrared, it peers straight through the dust that normally hides the galaxy’s interior. Combined with archival Hubble data, the image resolves roughly 16.5 million individual stars. M82 is a starburst galaxy, meaning it forms stars at a furious rate, a frenzy likely triggered when it merged with a neighbor. SpaceX Rolls Out Starship V3 SpaceX officially introduced Starship V3, the third generation of the largest rocket ever built. The vehicle now flies on the Raptor 3 engine, pushing liftoff thrust to around 20 million pounds and making it the most powerful rocket ever flown. More importantly, V3 is designed to carry over 100 metric tons to low Earth orbit while staying fully reusable, roughly triple the previous version. SpaceX also added in-orbit refueling hardware, the capability that finally makes operational Moon and Mars missions realistic. The Asteroid Barrage That Kept Earth From Forming Continents A team led by Curtin University and the Queensland University of Technology argues that relentless asteroid impacts shaped the very young Earth. During the Hadean, more than four billion years ago, the planet was struck far more often than it is today. Each impact dumped heat deep into the interior, repeatedly melting and reworking the crust. Consequently, stable continents formed much later than calmer models assumed, painting a picture of a hotter, weaker, more chaotic early Earth. Back-to-Back Earthquakes Devastate Northern Venezuela Northern Venezuela was struck by two major earthquakes on June 24, a magnitude 7.2 foreshock followed by a magnitude 7.5 mainshock. Both hit only about six miles underground, so the shallow shaking delivered its full force at the surface. Tragically, at least 164 people died, and the region sits along the tangled boundary where the Caribbean and South American plates grind past each other. These were the largest quakes to hit the area since a magnitude 7.7 event near Caracas in 1900. The ‘Guerrilla Solar’ Era Has Arrived A quiet energy shift, nicknamed “guerrilla solar,” is spreading across Europe. These small plug-in panels deliver power to a home’s wiring via a standard wall outlet, with no electrician or permit required. Germany now counts roughly a million of these systems. However, the U.S. payoff remains modest, with savings estimates of around $15 per month against a $500 to $1,500 setup cost. Why a Broken-Up Forest Stores Less Carbon Researchers quantified what foresters long suspected: an intact forest stores far more carbon than the same acreage split into fragments. A hectare inside a large, continuous forest proved about 38 percent more productive than an isolated one. The culprit is edge effects, the extra wind, heat, and direct sun that stress trees at a forest’s boundary. Because a large forest maintains a large protected core while fragments are nearly all edge, planting trees together matters for carbon storage. Edited Human Embryos Reveal a Surprise Researchers used base editing, a precise cousin of CRISPR that rewrites a single DNA letter without cutting the strand, in human embryos. They discovered that a protein called NANOG plays a role in early human development that it does not play in mice. In humans, switching it off still let cells form that seed the placenta and yolk sac. The finding argues that understanding human development requires studying human embryos directly, which reignites a thorny ethical debate. GitHub Fights a California Law That Could Break Open Source GitHub joined Black Forest Labs, Hugging Face, and Mozilla to push for fixes to California’s AI Transparency Act. As written, the bill could force revocation of an open-source license when a downstream user fails to meet certain obligations, which clashes with the permanent, irrevocable promise of open source. Cochrane pointed to curl and its longtime maintainer, Daniel Stenberg, warning that the rule could destabilize the supply chain on which the whole tech world runs. Instead, the coalition points to the EU’s AI Act transparency code as a saner model. Rust Opens Its Maintainers Fund The Rust Foundation launched a Maintainers Fund to pay the people who keep the language’s ecosystem healthy. Backed by RFC 3931, it establishes a funding team and a new Maintainer-in-Residence program for the often thankless work on the compiler, standard library, Cargo, and Clippy. Individuals can donate through GitHub Sponsors, while companies can sponsor there or contact the foundation directly. Cochrane urged any business that depends on open source to invest in the projects it actually uses. AWS Gives Lambda Its Own Isolated Sandboxes AWS introduced MicroVMs inside Lambda, its serverless platform. Each session runs in a dedicated micro virtual machine with no shared kernel and up to eight hours of total runtime. The feature exists for the AI era, in which applications increasingly run code written by an AI agent rather than by the developer. Use cases include AI coding assistants, data analytics platforms, vulnerability scanners, and game servers running user-supplied scripts. Meta Engineers a Battery Narrow Enough for Glasses Meta built custom steel-can battery cells as narrow as seven millimeters to fit the temple arms of smart glasses like the Ray-Ban Meta and Oakley Meta Vanguards. These cells power cameras, speakers, and AI features in a space most engineers would call impossible. To prevent brownouts, Meta swapped wound electrodes for precisely die-cut stacked layers that lower electrical resistance. Now the company is spreading the technology across multiple vendors and eyeing other wearables. Polestar Gets Locked Out of the US Market Starting in 2027, Polestar will not be able to sell its new models in the United States. A federal Connected Vehicle Rule bars cars containing certain Chinese or Russian software or hardware on national security grounds. The painful irony is that Polestar moved production of the Polestar 3 to South Carolina specifically to dodge tariffs on Chinese-built EVs. Because the rule targets the technology’s origin rather than its assembly location, the company is shut out anyway. Retroid’s Pocket Nova Packs Serious Power for $229 Retroid returned with a new retro handheld, the Pocket Nova, starting at $229 with a step-up model around $269. It features a 4.5-inch AMOLED screen in a 4:3 aspect ratio, a shape well suited to classic games. On paper, it should handle GameCube- and PlayStation 2-era titles, though that remains an early expectation rather than a benchmarked promise. Retroid has earned a strong reputation for high-quality, genuinely portable consoles.

If you've ever walked into an organisation and immediately sensed something was off - a kind of low-level tension, a lack of direction, people moving fast but not together - you've experienced what Greg Hoffman would call a leadership gap. And if you've ever been part of a team where everything clicked, where people were trusted, empowered, and genuinely cared about the work, you've experienced what his framework is designed to create.Greg is a lawyer by training, an executive by career, and a leadership thinker by deep conviction. He's worked inside companies like General Electric and Whirlpool, led teams across legal, IT, cybersecurity, and HR - often without a technical background in any of them - and he's spent the last two years channelling everything he knows into a book and leadership development programme called Performance Through People.This conversation is a very practical one. Greg doesn't describe what good leadership looks like from a distance. He shows you the mechanism.Three areas we explored...✳️ Culture doesn't build itself - at least not in a positive direction. If leaders don't intentionally build a common culture every day, confusion fills the space. Misalignment creeps in, and misalignment becomes toxicity.✳️ The five elements of the Performance Through People framework - leadership-first mindset, operational clarity, capability, empowerment, and impact - give leaders a system for building the conditions where trust emerges naturally, rather than something you try to manufacture.✳️ Empowerment is a dial, not a lever. How much you empower your team should be calibrated against the level of trust present - and trust is a function of operational clarity and capability, not personality or intention.Greg's Amplifiers...✳️ Care about and invest in the people around you. Look at who is in your sphere of influence and find someone you can help grow. Not because it's a strategy - because it matters.✳️ Read Performance Through People - out now on Amazon. The book follows a CEO using the PTP framework to turn around a struggling company. It's written as a parable, and Greg says the best feedback he gets is from readers who want to know more about the characters.✳️ Go live your why. Not someone else's. Greg spent years chasing other people's goals before stepping back and building something aligned with his own. There's a season when it's time to take the swing - and waiting until you're 70 isn't the plan.Follow Greg on LinkedIn or reach him at greg@ascensionpg.com.

Tom and Don dismantle the myth of “free money” from high-dividend stocks and ETFs, explaining why chasing yield often leads to poor diversification, lower total returns, and disappointing long-term performance. Using examples like Campbell's, Kraft Heinz, and Whirlpool, they show how dividend-paying companies can still destroy shareholder value while the broader market marches higher. The episode also features listener questions on military retirement planning with a pension-heavy income stream, asset allocation and Roth contributions near retirement, how to structure a UC retirement portfolio using low-cost index funds and small-cap value tilts, and the smartest way to generate retirement withdrawals from a balanced portfolio. Along the way, Don plugs his new Civil War novel The Line Uncrossed and the hosts revisit some old radio history.0:05 Dividend investing myths and “free money” thinking2:18 Why retirees are drawn to dividend stocks and ETFs4:03 Huge inflows into high-dividend ETFs despite lower expected returns5:19 Total return vs. income investing explained5:45 Campbell's Soup and Kraft Heinz as dividend trap examples7:06 Whirlpool cuts long-running dividend after financial strain8:10 Why total return matters more than yield9:10 Vanguard Dividend Growth vs. S&P 500 performance comparison10:44 The dangers of concentrated dividend strategies12:19 Why “magic income” strategies usually disappoint13:32 Military retirement caller asks about pensions, Roths, and mortgage payoff17:43 Using pensions as bond-like income in portfolio allocation18:41 Caller shifts from U.S.-only investing toward global diversification20:28 Don discusses The Line Uncrossed and companion Civil War stories22:30 UC employee asks about AVGE/DFAW vs. ultra-cheap UC index fund24:39 Suggested mix using low-cost index fund plus small-cap value tilts26:04 Listener thanks Don for decades of investing guidance27:58 Retirement withdrawal strategies from a 60/40 portfolio29:19 Rebalancing as the primary source of retirement cash flow30:14 Why retirement distribution planning matters32:35 Fiduciary advice vs. product sales pitches33:54 Friendly rivalry with Stacking BenjaminsQuestions?

McDonald's CEO says the consumer environment is certainly not improving and may be getting a little worse after the company reported better than expected past results. Those mainly before the gas prices jumped. Jumping over to big ticket items like appliances, Whirlpool, the company that employs the Maytag Man, it compared the current consumer climate to  – not joking – 2008-09 as the cracks of demand destruction are indeed beginning to grow wider and becoming more noticeable. The Maytag man is somewhere right now polishing his resume. Eurodollar University's Money & Macro Analysis----------------------------------------------------------------------------------What if your gold could actually pay you every month… in MORE gold?That's exactly what Monetary Metals does.

Een winst van bijna 7 miljard dollar, in één kwartaal. Meer dan een jaar geleden en meer dan het dubbele van het kwartaal ervoor. Het is ook meer dan waarop was gerekend. Shell, daar hebben we het over, profiteert van de oorlog in Iran en de daardoor opgelopen olieprijzen. Maar er is een maar. De beurskoers ging namelijk flink onderuit. Beleggers twijfelen hoe lang Shell nog kan profiteren van die hogere olieprijs. Ook reageren ze wat zuur op het cadeautje dat ze krijgen (de opkoop van eigen aandelen). Shell is iets minder royaal. Zijn beleggers te verwend of hebben ze een punt? Zoeken we voor je uit. Hebben we het ook over Pharming. Dat had een dramatische dag, nadat het met slecht nieuws kwam over 't belangrijkste medicijn, Ruconest. We kijken voor je naar deze sector: hoe gok je op het juiste paard uit de biotech-stal? Verder hebben we een heerlijk verhaal voor je over de topman van GameStop. Je weet wel, de man die eBay wil kopen. Voor de financiering heeft 'ie nog een variant gevonden: spulletjes verkopen op (jawel) eBay! Ook in deze uitzending: SBM Offshore verhoogt de winstverwachting Beleggers smullen van Samsung Maersk verwacht een golf aan inflatie Whirlpool vreest voor een recessie-achtige daling voor de industrie Te gast: Arend Jan Kamp van Stockwatch.nl BNR Beurs is een journalistiek onafhankelijke productie, mede mogelijk gemaakt door Saxo. Over de makers: Jelle Maasbach is presentator van BNR Beurs en freelance financieel journalist. Zijn favoriete aandeel om over te praten is Disney, maar daar lijkt hij de enige in te zijn. Sinds de eerste uitzending van BNR Beurs is 'ie er bij. Maxim van Mil is presentator van BNR Beurs en journalist bij BNR, waar hij zich focust op de financiële markten en ontwikkelingen in de tech-wereld. Je krijgt hem het meest enthousiast als hij kan praten over ASML, of oer-Hollandse bedrijven zoals Ahold of ABN Amro. Jorik Simonides is presentator van BNR Beurs, economieredacteur en verslaggever bij BNR. Hij wordt er vooral blij van als het een keer níet over AI gaat. Milou Brand is presentator van BNR Beurs, freelance podcastmaker en columnist bij het Financieele Dagblad. Jochem Visser is presentator van BNR Beurs, maakt Beursnerd XL en is redacteur bij de podcast Onder Curatoren. Vraag hem naar obscure zaken op financiële markten en hij vertelt je waarom het eigenlijk nóg leuker is dan je al dacht. Over de podcast: Met BNR Beurs ga je altijd voorbereid de nieuwe beursdag in. We praten je in een kleine 25 minuten bij over alle laatste ontwikkelingen op de handelsvloer. We blijven niet alleen bij de AEX of Wall Street, maar vertellen je ook waar nog meer kansen liggen.

In this special episode, I explain why we're re-hosting the Unbounded archive at Ungovernable Misfits and end the series with a forward-looking conversation with Colonial, author of Sovereignty Requires Privacy: Lessons from the Fall of Samourai Wallet. Tbd and Colonial explore sovereignty as territorial control—physical and digital—and why exposure is the enemy in a world where information is the battlefield. Colonial unpacks how privacy tools challenge the geopolitical order, why martyrs lose, and why the next era belongs to disciplined, anonymous builders who move with intention. They walk through practical lessons from the Samourai saga, from the limits of playing by “their” rules to a new code for anon warfare, and close with actionable steps listeners can take now, including adopting Ashigaru's Whirlpool implementation and strengthening operational discretion. This one is about clarity over nostalgia: either you control your territory, or someone else will.

For twenty years, marketers wrote content to rank. We told ourselves we were writing for users, but most of us were really writing for Google. That playbook is breaking. In this episode of Content Amplified, Rich Missey, a 20-year SEO veteran who has led search at Hyatt, Cars.com, Groupon, and Whirlpool, walks through what's actually changing, what it means for your content, and what marketers should be doing right now. Rich explains query fan out, why informational content is getting swallowed whole inside AI overviews, and how structure (not just words) is becoming the thing that determines whether generative systems surface your content. He also makes the case for why internal linking, heading hierarchy, and good old-fashioned sentence diagramming might be the most important SEO skills of the next decade. If you're trying to figure out where SEO ends and GEO begins, this conversation is a must-listen.About RichRich Missey is a 20-year SEO veteran who has led organic search strategy for some of the biggest brands on the internet, including Hyatt, Cars.com, Groupon, and Whirlpool.

In this special series, Max shares why we're hosting and preserving the Unbounded archive at Ungovernable Misfits. In the fourth re-release of the series, Dojo Coder (Pavel)— a long-time cypherpunk builder whose code has powered Samourai Wallet, Dojo and Ronin Dojo joins tbd.Tbd and Pavel dig into the current state of Ronin Dojo, why the project remains alive despite setbacks, and a near-term UI update that will reintroduce a transaction privacy visualiser inspired by the now-defunct KYCP.org. Pavel also reflects on Ashigaru—a community fork of Samourai Wallet—and the relaunch of Whirlpool as an open act of defiance, the trade-offs and trust questions it raises, and practical guidance on evaluating transparency and risk. We close with Soroban's peer-to-peer relay for Dojo to further obfuscate transaction origins, why code is speech even when courts disagree, and how listeners can support the Samourai legal defence while staying informed through reliable voices in the privacy community.Stay resilient, and enjoy the series as we continue with Colonial in the weeks ahead.TWITTER: https://x.com/TheUNBOUNDEDPodYOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/@TheUnboundedPodcastHELP GET SAMOURAI A PARDONSIGN THE PETITION ----> https://www.change.org/p/stand-up-for-freedom-pardon-the-innocent-coders-jailed-for-building-privacy-tools DONATE TO THE FAMILIES ----> https://www.givesendgo.com/billandkeonneSUPPORT ON SOCIAL MEDIA ---> https://billandkeonne.org/(00:00) Thank You TBD(01:41) INTRO(03:25) The Origin Story(09:44) Ronin Dojo: Still Alive(13:53) The Human Cost of Building(23:32) The Bitcoin Privacy Movement(34:52) Support Bill and Keonne
