Food Addiction, the Problem and the Solution
Former Food Addict Lisa K. Opens Up About Her Inspiring Journey
"Today, our guest is Lisa Kay. She is a recovered food addict. Welcome, Lisa. Lisa Kay Thank you. It's nice to be here, Susan. Susan Branscombe Yeah, fantastic. I'm looking forward to hosting you and getting into your story. I've read your blog entries and some of your writings, and I've seen your before and after photos, and what an incredible transformation and journey. And I can tell you, you see it the same way. Recovery from food addiction. Lisa Kay Yeah, it's a miracle, really, to see the difference and what it was like before and what it is like now. Wow. Susan Branscombe Yeah, yeah. I'm going to ask you to share your story, sort of what it was like with food and food addiction. And then what your life was like during that time when you were in the food, as we say, and talk about food addiction recovery. And then we'll talk about what your life is like now. So I'm going to ask you some quotes. I'll read some quotes from your writing, which are really powerful, and let you address them and talk about them. How's that? Lisa Kay Sounds great. Susan Branscombe Okay, good. Well, let's start with your history. Kind of your childhood. I've seen the photos before you got into recovery, as I said in the after photos. And people probably say to you what they say to me, that can't possibly be you. It doesn't look like the same person, right? You probably get that. So yeah, yeah. Well, the dates I have and I'll turn it over to you are you January 1 2021 was a pivotal date. It was New Year's Day. And the next day, you know, you had some, you made some decisions and two and a half years later, you at that time, January 1 2021, you weighed 335 pounds. You have to date, released 150 pounds. And you did it through recovery. So talk about your your history, your weight, your food use. Let's get started there. Yeah, sure. So I think I was a food addict from day one, my mom would tell me stories about how she would put rice cereal in my formula to keep me full. Otherwise, I would cry. And so there started the trifecta, right? Sugar, fat, and starch. Yes. And it didn't end there. It just kept going. And so through all my childhood, I've been overweight. And I have memories of sitting in front of the refrigerator eating what was supposed to be healthy apricot sorbet, right? It was half apricot puree from the tree out back, and half sugar. And I would sit on the floor in the kitchen, taking out sheets of it out of the refrigerator freezer and just eating constantly as a child. So you started early. When did you identify as a food addict, right? Oh, yes. I'm also a volume addict. I loved the feeling of feeling full and stuffed, not just healthy full. Yeah. Let's talk about that a little later, because I share that with you. You are a food addict in recovery, recovered, sometimes we say in the spirit of 12 step literature. So you started early. Did you realize then or as you realize now that you looked back, you weren't eating like other kids or other at that time? Yeah, I probably as a teenager, I started realizing I wasn't eating like other kids, I would start hiding what I was eating. I would in front of people eat a healthy amount. And then I would go home and binge on anything and everything. We'd go out to eat and I'd often order extra meals to take home and say it was for my family. Well, it was not for my family, it was for me. So it was teenage years where I started realizing, okay, I'm not eating in a normal way as a teenage girl. Yeah. I think that was a critical time for me, too, at the age of 14. I was gone through puberty, my body was starting to hold on to fat, wasn't as active, and there were boys, and there were girlfriends, and everything was changing. I was carrying extra weight, and I was embarrassed about it. Those are traumatic times. So you talk about hiding, a lot of us secretly eat. It's kind of like our friend, and to feel better and to get away from emotions. We'll talk about that. But let's talk about the volume eating. I was a volume eater, and I used to feel really scared if I felt hungry or my stomach wasn't full, and I would feel safe if it was full. Do you share that? Absolutely. It was comforting. It was soothing for me to feel full all the time.

A highlight from Claynosaurz INTERVIEW! | Solana's Pixar NFT Roadmap
"All right, today we're going to do a deep dive on a project I think you guys will recognize and it's really kind of focusing in on the NFT space and what the opportunities are. Obviously we've got Breakpoint coming up with Solana, there's going to be a lot of new stuff. This particular project is in alignment with all that, so you guys are going to love it. Stick around for a good one. My name is Paul Baron. Welcome back into Tech Pass. Joining me today is Nick Cabana, who is the co -creative director and founder over at Klanesaurs. And of course, Andrew Palekas, the CEO over at Klanesaurs. Great having you both. Thanks, it's great to be here. Excellent. All right, so let's just jump off. We'll start with Nick. And Nick, let's go into a little bit, for most of our audience, some I would say recognize the Klanesaurs brand, so to speak. But for those who might be new, give us kind of a rundown on the size, the scope of the project, your team, etc. Yeah, so Klanesaurs is really a brand of characters focused on cute, quirky little clay dinosaurs that go off on adventures in a fantasy setting. The team is comprised of a wide range of professional industry animators coming from the feature side and from visual effects. Right now on the core team, we've got around 14 with a slew of other freelancers helping out. But it's a pretty big team to pull off what we're trying to do. And it's our initial Genesis release was 10 ,000 collectibles. Today, we have over 40 ,000 assets there, but primarily 12 ,000 characters that we can kind of leverage for content. And our primary focus is just that, is content that kind of engages the audience, engages the fan base using their own collectibles, which is really fun. And our focus was quality above and beyond everything. So we were bringing our knowledge from the animation industry into the game. I've been an animation supervisor, so I've been in the industry for about 13 years as an animator. And for about six years, I was an animation supervisor. So I've supervised creature work on Game of Thrones, on Paddington 2, Fantastic Beasts, HBO's Dark Material, a whole slew of things. I started my career at Sony Animation. So that's where they've done Spider -Verse and Hotel Transylvania. And eventually made my way to studios like Framestore that's notably recognized for like Gravity and Guardians of the Galaxy. I've worked on things like Jurassic World and I've done some music videos as well. So I've worked with Kay Tranata on award winning music videos. And now I do these cute little dinosaurs. And most of the background is welcome into the Web3 space. Right. It's been incredible. Like we saw a huge opportunity for doing things differently and incubating IP and in this new paradigm where artists can kind of retain ownership of the assets. And the whole team comes from a similar background. So we've got leaders across the board and we've got, you know, animators that have been involved with Minions, Hotel Transylvania, Spider -Verse. We've got people from Dreamworks. It's a healthy bag of artists. Andrew, you know, your background interesting as well. And when you guys look at rolling out, you know, projects like what you're doing now, you're starting to do a lot of value add for dinosaurs. Breakpoint is coming up right now, kind of pointing at over a thousand people coming into on that. Andrew, can you tell us a little bit more about what's going to happen at Breakpoint? What's what's kind of in store? Right. So since Buzz has tweeted that we've actually increased that number, I think we're over 1200 now. So we're expecting a big from our community. We're hosting a whole number of events throughout the week. We've got everyone in our in a sort of hotel buyout situation where the community comes together and all stays together. We're hosting lunches and more casual events throughout the week and in the days after that main event. So we're looking forward to all of it. That main event, we're going to broadcast everything into our Discord so that the community that couldn't make it out will still have the opportunity to engage and see what we're working on from their homes or from wherever they are in the world. So, wow, that's that's going to be kind of like a little bit of a mini Super Bowl week for you guys. I mean, you've got a lot happening there along with the release, the cinematic trailer. Talk to me about what that release really means to the Clan of Swords project, but more importantly, maybe even the community. Where do you guys see that going? It means a lot to us. You know, it's it's definitely a labor of love for for the team. It's a statement piece, for sure, because it for us, it kind of leverages our know how and and it's in the quality of what you'd expect from any sort of feature style work. So even in, let's say, the Web 2 world, it's going to be recognized for for the quality and the storytelling that comes across in that video. For us, it's a little bit of like a primary touch point for for fans. And we wanted it to kind of lend itself to familiarity so that people can understand the brand, can understand the larger story. And once they see that, it's a lot more tangible that this can one day become episodic or movies or games. So it's kind of like the wall of quality. And and then when people kind of get introduced to short form content and stuff like that, they can go back to this brand trailer and understand that the the bigger picture. And for the for the Web 3 fans, what's going to be really special to them, and maybe we'll get into this later, is a lot of the ideas in the cinematic is ideas that were leveraged through them, through the pitches they had, through the feedback they've given us for about a year. There's a level of internal pop culture that will come across in this trailer. There's not as many that go as deep as what you guys have done. Is this a bigger kind of story arc that you guys are trying to create into a variety of different multimedia experiences? What's kind of the goal there? Yeah, absolutely. I think you've hit the nail on the head in that one of the problems that we see with a number of early projects in the NFT space is a is a lack of quality. And I think Nick spoke to that just now that we're trying to bring this Pixar Disney quality into the NFT space. And that's where our team comes from. We think this is imperative for bringing people into the space. Yeah, you know, a lot of other projects, they have interesting art, but it doesn't necessarily resonate with a wider community. And it's very tough for them to grow outside of that Web 3 space, if you will. And we believe that great communities have formed around those projects. And just like ours, we think we have a really great community forming around our project. But in order to make that community larger and to turn this into a brand that resonates with a larger population, the quality has to compete at that at that Disney level or at that level when you're turning on Netflix for someone to say, hey, I want to click on this objectively for no other reason than the fact that it looks really great. In the space, there was a there was always a focus on over the top mystery without really getting into characters so much. You know, we've we've seen that with some of the videos from Yuga or even artifact, where early on, there wasn't much of a it felt like the trailers were engineered for hype without really explaining what it's all about. And we and as storytellers doing this, you know, for for larger companies for over a decade, for most of our team, like our approach was, well, if if this is the first time you see this video, you get it and you understand these characters. It makes you smile and you want to learn more about them. And that was the goal, really. Yeah, well, I think this is the problem right now that unfortunately Web three has a bit of a moniker on it, that there's a lot of cash grabs out there. And to your point, Nick, in many cases, the hype is more important than the actual storyline and kind of what the evolution of what that really is going to that project is really going to be about in the future. So it's good to see, you know, projects like what you guys are doing start to really understand that. Obviously, you guys bring the experience from a Web two, you know, and an entertainment environment that can really kind of translate. I want to jump over into the project itself. We're going to show a couple of things on screen and I want you guys to explain classes and foraging. All right. Or foraging, not foraging and thinking of another game. So let's go into that. Well, and either one of you can kind of jump onto it. Let's jump into to that real quick. Just classes in general. Sure. So the class selection is meant to be the first interactive component for the existing NFT collections.

He's done an amazing job building one of the most powerful youth organizations ever created, Turning Point USA. We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country. That's why we are here. Brought to you by the loan experts I trust, Andrew and Todd at Sierra Pacific Mortgage at andrewandtodd .com. Joining us now is Matt Boyle from Breitbart .com. Matt, thank you for taking time here. Matt, you covered this congressional stuff very closely and you've been tracking it. Walk us through the last couple of weeks from Motion to Vacate to where we are now, Matt Boyle. Yeah look, we just had the third ballot earlier this morning and earlier today and Jordan fell short again. 25 intransigent republicans refused to vote for him. We have a list of those up on Breitbart .com so people can go see if their member of Congress is one of the intransigent republicans who are doing this. This was the third speaker vote for Jordan. Where this all started was now almost three weeks ago. Eight republicans led by Matt Gaetz of Florida did what's called a motion to vacate the chair. They voted with all of the democrats in Congress to remove McCarthy from the speaker's chair. After that happened, then the house republicans had first rallied around Steve Scalise, the house majority leader, but Steve Scalise only got 110 voting members of the house of representatives to back him in conference, which is less than a majority. You'll see the votes that he got in conference were from members from the delegates from the territories, so they don't get to vote on the floor. Scalise's path was pretty much over the second he won the conference nomination. Once Scalise withdrew from the race, the race shifted back to Jim Jordan. Jim Jordan is now and has been for a week now the speaker designate of the republican conference. He's the official nominee of the republican conference for speaker, and he's gotten close. His first vote on the floor earlier this week, he got 200 votes. After that, one member flipped back his way, and another member who was absent is back in voting for him again. But he hasn't been able to break these remaining holdouts. The thing that is abundantly clear about these people that are holding out against Jim Jordan is many of them are on the appropriations committee. So many of them, seven of them actually, including the chairwoman of the appropriations committee, Kay Granger from Texas. Now, Kay Granger from Texas, I'm told by House Republican aides, is like the republican Joe Biden. She's so far gone mentally. She's not with it. And so she's the one leading the charge here. You also have John Rutherford on the appropriations committee. He represents the district here in Northeast Florida. You have Tony Gonzalez from Texas on the appropriations committee, Jake Elsie from Texas on the appropriations committee, Steve Womack from Arkansas on the appropriations committee. So one thing that's clear is that it's the big government, big spending republicans who are doing this because there's a government funding deadline coming up on November 17th. The deal that led the original eight to go after McCarthy and remove him from the speaker's chair funded the government for 45 days. And they motioned to vacate the chair just a couple of days after that. That funded the government until November 17th. And now with the government funding deadline looming, these appropriator, big government, big spending republicans, establishment rhinos are in the way of Jordan on continuing their intransigence. Yeah. So what is the path forward then, Matt? Let's just talk strategically, right? We want Jim Jordan to become speaker. What, if anything, can make these 24, as you call them, and that's not a word I use every day, intransigence, right? That's which means unwilling to move for all of you vocab majors out there. What, if anything, can be done? It does not look like the pressure campaign is working. Matt Boyle. Well, look, I think that they're very willing to wheel and deal. I know they say they aren't. But the fact of the matter is, is that there's there's two ways out of this. I don't think there's any other member of the Republican conference at this point who could be able to get 217 votes and they'll go over in Utah next month, right? So there's a special election coming up there. The fact is, is that I don't think that anyone else could get there. So there's two ways out. Either they figure out a way to get there and vote for Jordan, or, or we're going to end up with a deal with the Democrats and the big government republicans are going to finally go be the swamp monsters that they always say they are. And I think that it's a great clarifying moment. I think either outcome is great for Americans. Americans are learning. We're, we're seeing the hood lifted here. We're seeing how these awful people actually work. Look, Charlie, you know this because you have the good ones come to the turning point conferences, right? Like the fact is, is that there's, you know, people out there generally know maybe 15, 20 members of Congress, the ones who are on TV all the time, the ones who go to your conferences, the right, the ones who come on Breitbart all the time, right? Like, but there's a lot of these really, really bad establishment politicians in the Republican conference in both the house and the Senate. The house is a little better than the Senate because the elections are every two years. So we've been getting rid of the bad ones and bring in the good ones. But the fact is, is that I think this is exposing them all, right? Like, so I think the this is a great moment for the country in that we're getting to see a look underneath the hood and into the, uh, you know, what their guts are showing, right? The intestine, the gastrointestinal tract of the awful place that Congress, but, but do you think the moderates are feeling the heat? I'm not seeing evidence of that yet that they're starting to, okay, so walk us through that because maybe they're just playing a game. They're complaining about, you see this constantly happening now, like where they're all complaining about, they're getting quote unquote, death threats. Look, they're, they're not getting that. I haven't seen actual evidence of an actual death threat. And obviously that would be bad if they are. I think what's happening is people are calling their members of Congress and they're freaking out, right? Like, so like, look, here's the deal. If this was conservatives voting against an establishment person that was the conference nominee, you would see people calling for their committee chairs, right? Like in calling for their committee assignments and calling to strip them off of committees. They did this. John Boehner did it to conservatives. He did it to Mark Meadows, et cetera. I I'm seeing calls Congressman Jim banks, for instance, from Indiana, who's fantastic and is the likely Senate can Senator next Senator from Indiana is calling for Kate Granger, the leader of this. She's the chair of the appropriations committee to lose her gavel as the appropriations committee chair. And people are beginning to pressure whoever the next speaker will be. And I think that it will be Jim Jordan. I think he's going to figure out a way through this and power through it. Look, here's the deal. Kevin McCarthy went through 15 ballots, we've only been through three right now. We got plenty of time here. In the fact is, is that I think the pressure is on those other people because their predictions of a mass exodus against Jordan haven't come to fruition. And the fact is, is that the vast majority of members have been sticking with Jordan since his original first speakership vote ballot, where he got 99 votes, he's moved more than double his way, right? Like, so I, on the first speakership ballot, he had 200 votes, and he had 202 on the second one. The fact is, is that we're in the end game here, right? Like, so that, you know, I think these people can be dealt with. And I think that they can be willed and deal with and if they don't, then I think there needs to be serious consequences. That includes primary challenges. And I'm hearing that there are people announcing and running against many of these intransigents already. And then also, I cut off of the NRCC funding to these people, the party should not be funding people who vote against the party. And then also, and then in addition to that, I'm also hearing, again, the losing of committee assignments, including chairmanships. Let's play cut 143. Matt Gaetz is offering himself up on a platter. Play cut 143. Have no goals, have no asks, have no objectives other than to see the eight of us suffer some consequence for having removed McCarthy. So we've made them an offer. The eight of us have said that we are willing to accept censure, sanction, suspension, removal from the Republican conference. We, of course, will remain Republicans. We will continue to vote with Republicans on Republican principles. But if what these holdouts need is a pound of our flesh, we're willing to give it to them in order to see them elect Jim Jordan for speaker. I want you guys to pause right there. This is Strategically Smart by Matt Gaetz. He's basically saying, what else do you guys want? We're willing to have censure and removal from the conference. Here you go, guys. You want revenge? I'm giving it to you. They have no asks. This is sophomore and we're going to keep on naming the names.
Mike Gallagher Podcast
A highlight from The Mike and Mark Davis Daily Chat - 10/19/23
"Mike Gallagher. Everyday Mike visits with Mark Davis, morning host on 660 AM, The Answer in Dallas. Here's today's M &M Experience. Well I'm telling you, I think you're going to be right, in a majority of cases I believe you're going to be right. So press on. And I wouldn't even believe you on JLC because sometimes people can panic. Sometimes people, politicians know their base and so you think they're in favor of somebody like Donald Trump but they're really not. I know him and he's not. Well if you know him, why is he doing this? Listen, honestly, why is he doing this? Here's the bottom line. This is Revenge of the Nerds. This is their way to get back at MAGA and at the Trump world and they're able to say we're going to hold this up, we are not going to let a Trump supporter like Jim Jordan be Speaker of the House and now, and we can't stop Trump any other way, we got to try to, we got to sue him, we got to put him in prison, we got to, and remember something ladies and gentlemen and this is what is the moral of the story. I'm sorry, every one of these Republicans hates you and me. They hate us. They reject MAGA, they reject the American, there's no other explanation. Listen, you're one of the smartest guys I know, you're not able to answer Jake Elsie to me. I've asked you four times. Because he said, I'm not going to, I'll ask him when we have a speaker, what was the problem? What was the tactical strategic issue related problem? What was it? I don't know. We'll find out when he tells me. We'll find out what he tells me. We'll find out when he tells me. Come on. I can tell you, he hates the Trump supporters. He hates Jim Jordan, he hates fighters, he hates the America First movement. I think we run into a danger of painting with the broad brush because I have a feeling and listen, I don't know Kay as well as I know Jake and I don't know Tony Gonzalez at all or any of the other 18 or 19 folks who voted against Jordan. I think you're largely correct. I think you're probably true in the vast majority of cases. Well, I'd love to know what the exception is. I really would. In fact, I don't think that Kay is virulently anti -Trump, but with her, she's all about military appropriations that has been very kind to her, very kind to her district and that has helped her fend off her own primary challenges forever because she is just the queen of military appropriations and military preparedness. And I think she might have a concern that Jim Jordan is about to have a somewhat more isolationist foreign policy and might have a deleterious effect on Lockheed Martin. She is an establishment Republican that loathes what Trump has unleashed. I'm telling you, there is no other explanation. I'm not saying this to be critical of you, but you're twisting yourself in a pretzel trying to explain why they're doing the unexplainable. This is indefensible. They're not putting the country first. They're not putting the American people first. We got a war raging in Israel. I mean, my gosh, we got a president now who's taking taxpayer money and giving it to both teams, as he would put it. He's giving $100 million to Gaza. Let that sink in. Where do you think that $100 million is going to go? You think Hamas is going to buy cots and medical supplies and blankets? They're going to buy more bombs. They're going to spend more money to kill Jews. This is how goofy. This guy last night, did you see him on the plane say about the hospital strike that the Palestinians need to learn how to shoot straight? Mark, shoot. Oh, really? So they can kill more Jews because they're trying to kill the Jews with those missiles. He wants them to shoot straighter. This is the guy that's the commander in chief. My gosh, I mean, if you saw that, if that was your grandfather or your father and you saw him on TV, you'd call mom and you'd say, get the car keys and let's get him into a home. We got to get him into an assisted living facility because dad needs help. That's the president of the United States. He went over there. What did he do? What did he do when he went over there? Jordan completely shunned him. The Arabs completely turned their backs to him. He stumbled around. All he probably did was delay the ground offensive in Gaza. Precisely. There is an answer to that question. What did he do that was good? The answer is nothing. What did he do that was bad? He interrupted and interfered with the proper Israeli strategic response to the folks who were trying to wipe him off the map because he couldn't do that because Air Force ones, you know, out there on the tarmac. It's absolutely inconceivable. And let's go let's go down the rabbit hole a little farther. Yesterday, there was an insurrection. Nobody seemed to notice. I saw I saw the video. It was just chanting, seething, hoards, arrests, no, oh, violence. I mean, they were fighting with cops and they were swarming. What happens to them? Surely, surely, surely they will be locked under the D .C. jail without being charged for months. Of course they will. Because, you know, an insurrection is an insurrection. It can't just be Trump supporters.
Tech Path Crypto
A highlight from Market Trends & Macro w/ Lyn Alden
"We're going to take a little trip today and take a look at the current macro markets and some of the outlook for trends going forward, because I think there's a lot of things happening right now that are starting to kind of come to a head. Obviously, you've seen a lot of recent news, both on CPI, the PPI data. We will see and continue to see some of the actions from the Fed start to resolve as well. So we're going to try to break it all down for you guys, and we have a special guest for you today. It's going to be a good one. My name is Paul Bear. Welcome back into Tech Path. Joining me today, of course, is Lynn Alden, who's been on our show many times. If you guys want to check out our website, just go to LynnAlden .com. You can get her investing newsletter, which I am part of that one. And I love your work. And of course, you've got a big book coming out as well. So thank you so much for stopping in on the show today. Happy to. Yeah. Working on the book Broken Money has been a big project over the past year, and it's also been very kind of educational for myself. So it's certainly been a fun project to be working on. A lot within that book, too, for some of our viewers and listeners, if you're on the podcast side, I think one thing I noticed is, first of all, was your guide through kind of the history of money, which I think a lot of people just overlook that. And that's something I think for today's macro economy and really understanding markets, that's a very good starter to kind of get your game on in terms of understanding what's actually happening here in the economy today. So excellent job there, Lynn. I want to start off the show here with a couple of things. We're going to get into CPI. And of course, this is Charlie Bellillo talking about the overall. This of course, CPI moved up to 3 .7 in September from 3 .67 in August. So third straight month we had on year -over -year inflation rates. When you look at the current situation with just inflation as we've seen it, I think a lot of people anticipated some of these kinds of moves. What's your current thought on the direction of CPI and whether or not inflation is really going to have a major impact in, say, the next two quarters? Well, so we've seen a rebound in energy prices to a certain degree. We've seen a rebound in housing prices. So when you look at the Kay Shiller index, for example, house prices were correcting. Now they've kind of stabilized, they've gone back up in aggregate. And overall, I think that's kind of the trend we're in now in the sense that we've had a permanent boost in terms of how much money is in the system. Even as the Fed tries to draw down their balance sheet, there's still money coming in from the reverse repo facility. So it's kind of balanced at the current time. I think around the margins, I kind of see a settling here for a period of time because there's still downward pressure on a number of industries from these rate hikes. But part of what's fueling the inflation is the very large fiscal deficits. And what makes this kind of different from other cycles, at least up to a point, is that most of the money supply growth did not come from the banking sector, it did not come from credit creation, it came from large fiscal deficits, and we have very high public debt levels now. And so the challenge is the whole process of raising rates is meant to slow down bank lending. It's meant to slow down kind of the main driver of that money creation, which in the 70s worked because you had low public debt, you had very high demographic -driven bank lending. But in this era and back in the 1940s, most of the money creation is from those fiscal deficits. And so the problem is when you raise rates, you actually increase deficits. We have over 100 % debt to GDP. If you raise rates, it actually pours more money into the economy. And so I think they're kind of in this kind of balancing act here where it's going to be hard to fully land the plane. Yeah. Well, I think what you're referencing is your ex post here, past four decades, equilibrium of higher U .S. debt. But this was a good chart to kind of look at. Let me kind of zoom out on that a little bit. Federal debt versus public debt. And you can kind of see both kind of in line right here. When you look at a long -term outlook on this, because rates are going to stay high for quite some time, what does this look like on an overall chart, say in the next six to 12 months? Do you feel that we're going to continue to see this uptrend? So the next six to 12 months, even if rates just stay where they are, so if they stop going higher but they just stay where they are, that interest expense is still going to go up a lot because there's still existing debt that keeps maturing at those higher rates. And so even Treasury Notes issued a year ago, for example, when they get refinanced at this current rate, they go up substantially. Any longer duration bond, like a five -year, a 10 -year, a 30 -year, anytime they mature and get reissued, it goes up. And so if you run the numbers, we get up to something like 1 .7 trillion on interest expense annually if you just hold rates where they are and have the full weighted average eventually catch up to that. Now, we wouldn't get that in the next couple of quarters, but basically we continue to add tens or hundreds of billions of dollars in interest expense to the existing deficit at the current time. So I do think that we're going to continue to see very high bond issuance and continue to see extremely high and still rising interest expense, which is part of the deficit and is a source of money that is flowing out into the economy. Yeah. Okay. Okay. That does not sound good. So when you look at long -term, and I think from a strategy standpoint, my question I guess would be the liquidity aspect is what is it going to look like with a lot of people still somewhat on the sidelines and now possibly looking at some exits starting to occur in traditional finance and maybe even in the bond market to a certain extent. We could end up seeing kind of a lull in terms of the market pressure here, at least in terms of pent -up demand or demand for some of these instruments out there. I was looking at Jordy Alexander, he had a tweet, a thread that kind of went down into this. Fed never looked as good control over the back end, especially in the third year. He said not many investors willing to wait that long obviously there. But his point goes on, Fed's starting to realize that there's simply no natural buyers for long -end bonds and they'll soon get very afraid. So is that, do you feel that that is the current position right now when we look at the bond market? I do. I'd be a little bit hesitant to say push the shorts here. I mean we already had a very large down move in bonds. I've been a bond bear for years. I mean the speed of this move even was kind of surprising to me, even as a bond bear. And so the real range is starting to get interesting. I can see for example why someone would want to go long tips here. You get a decent real yield on your position. The problem is not that, at this point I think they're appropriately priced. But the challenge is there's just too much supply relative to demand. Basically the types of buyers that are not, so there's a couple main pools of buyers for treasuries. They could be the foreign sector, but they're not buying because the dollar index is strong. So they're in currency defense mode. They're not rapidly accumulating reserves. There's the Fed, but they're not buying. They're actually net selling by letting bonds mature off their balance sheet. There's banks, which were big buyers recently, but over the past year that's reversed now. So banks are no longer buyers. And so that leaves only domestic non -bank entities. So insurance companies, asset managers, households, you and me, we're kind of the only buyers left. And we're generally, when we buy bonds, we don't buy them on leverage in the way that these money creators can. And so there's really only so much that can be absorbed. And so it's more of a mechanical issue than investors assessing them and saying that they're inappropriately priced.

A highlight from UNCHAINED: SBF Trial | How Sam Bankman-Frieds Lawyers Might Try and Win His Case
"Thanks for listening to Unchained, your no -hype resource for all things crypto, on the CoinDesk Podcast Network.

However, you may be in a situation where the government puts their case on and you are going to lose. There is no way you're winning. You're only shot as a Hail Mary. Okay, let's put them on. The other side of the coin is it's very powerful when a defendant testifies. It makes it much harder for the jury to convict. They're not dealing with characterizations of a person anymore. They're dealing with that person. They have heard the person speak intimately in a courtroom. And even in cases I've had where a defendant testified, even when the jury ends up convicting, it often takes them longer to get there because it's a harder decision when a human being testifies to them. Starting on Tuesday, October 3rd, the day this episode airs, the world will be watching the criminal trial of the United States versus Sam Bankman -Fried. In this episode, my guests Kayvon Sadeghi and Samson Ensor unpack what it is we're likely to see in the trial, starting with what kinds of potential jurors it is that both the prosecution and the defense will want to deselect from the jury poll this week. Why it's even gotten to the point of a criminal trial given that three co -conspirators have already pleaded guilty, what the core of the trial centers around, and why it is they think the fact that it involves crypto won't matter. Plus, they explore the effectiveness of one potential defense from Bankman -Fried's side, the so -called advice of counsel defense that says that FTX's own lawyers approved of the company's actions. And finally, they raise the question that everyone will be looking for. Will Sam testify? Hi everyone, welcome to Unchained, your no -hype resource for all things crypto.

Today's topic is the trial for Sam Vangman -Fried. Here to discuss are Kay von Sodegi, Partner and Co -Chair of Fintech and Crypto Assets at Jenner & Block, and Samson Enser, Partner at Cahill, Gordon & Rydell. Welcome, Kay von and Sam. Great to be back with you, Laura. Likewise. Thanks for having us on. So, the day this episode airs is the first day of the criminal trial for the United States against Sam Vangman -Fried, the former CEO of FTX. Before we dive into the details of this trial, why don't we just have you each briefly describe how your background is relevant to this case. Kay von, would you like to start? Sure. Sure. So, I've been a litigator in New York for the last little over 20 years now, I guess, and in the blockchain space since late 2016, so I've been following all sorts of litigation enforcement actions in the space, including things related to the FTX situation, of course. I also know when things go criminal to open people like my friend Sam here, who have more direct experience, so I'll turn it over to him to discuss his background. Sure. Thank you, Kay von. I used to be a federal prosecutor in the Southern District of New York in the securities and commodities fraud unit, which is the unit that is prosecuting Sam Vangman -Fried. When I was there, I did their first crypto securities fraud cases. So what you're seeing in this case is sort of an evolution of some of the cases that I worked on. The prosecutors in this case are folks that used to be my colleagues. I know them well, both from when I was a prosecutor and now as a defense lawyer at Cahill. I tried a case in front of Judge Kaplan, who is the judge in the case. I know him well, and I've had a case in front of him as a defense lawyer. And the defense lawyers are folks that I'm friends with from both sides. I worked with them with Chris Everdale when we were prosecutors together. And now on the defense side, he and I have worked together on this side as well. All right. So to begin our discussion, why don't we first explain how this trial is different from, say, the SEC's case against Ripple, which secures to even get a judgment that is now being appealed. So how is this trial against SPF even able to start less than a year after FTX collapsed? Sure. I can jump in. For what a lot of people in the industry have been looking at are things like the SEC enforcement action against Ripple, Coinbase, other things like that, which are civil proceedings. And those tend to be preceded by years of investigation followed by, once a case starts, months if not years of discovery where parties are exchanging all sorts of documents, taking depositions, there's multiple rounds of briefing. And we end up with something like a decision on summary judgment, as we saw in Ripple, before you ever get to a trial to decide what's tried. That is a very different process than the criminal process, which involves a lot less discovery up front. You end up exchanging a lot less information before trial, and it's a much more accelerated time frame. And I think for talking about exactly how those mechanics work, maybe we can kick to Sam to discuss a little bit about that criminal process. Yeah, for sure. I think in a criminal case, it is very common to get from indictment to trial within roughly a year, even in a complicated case. This case is unusual in that the prosecutors investigated the crime very, very quickly. It was November of 2022 that I think the market and the public started to see signs that FTX was cracking. It was not long after that that there was an indictment. So they were speedy in the investigation. Judge Kaplan is a no -nonsense judge who does not like to move a trial date. So he is somebody who pushes a case to trial if that's where it's headed. And so that's why we are here. In the criminal context, as Kayvon mentioned, you know, in a civil case, you will get to question under oath that is depose the other side's witnesses. So there are no surprises at a trial. Not so in a criminal trial. The does defense not have the opportunity to... If the witnesses for the government don't want to be interviewed by them, they won't be. They don't have the right to question them. If those witnesses don't want to be questioned, they may not even know who the witnesses are. They may learn that for the first time very shortly before the trial. If you've seen the movie My Cousin Vinny, it's actually a pretty good summary of how the criminal process goes. You're there and you're hearing the testimony for the first time. You have to really be live on your feet to be able to deal with it. And that's something that I think surprises a lot of people who aren't familiar with the system because I think the natural instinct is, you know, civil cases are about money. Criminal cases are about your freedom. And you would think as the defendant, when your freedom's on the line, you'd have more rights to information that you would have more ability to mount your defense and have everything that you would need to do so. But in fact, it sort of works the opposite way that you have less information going into the trial. You have less rights to understand what the prosecutors are going to do than you would to understand what the SEC is going to do when they're bringing a case just for money damages. I think another thing to think about, and this has played out in some of the briefing ahead of trial, in the Ripple case, the defendants, the company and the executives who were named in the suit are not in jail. So they can run their business, they can live their lives, they can meet with their lawyers in a conference room to prepare. Sam Bankman -Fried has been repeatedly asking the judge to release him on bail because he is literally in jail right now awaiting trial. He was out on bail originally. He did things that caused the judge to detain him. And now he's sitting in a jail. What that means is his lawyers do not have 24 -7 access to him. He may not have full access to computers or things to do the stuff he needs to do to prepare. I can tell you on the defense side, I've had clients in jail when I've had to defend them. It is extremely difficult to confer with a client and prepare for court when you have limited access to them because they're in jail. Yeah, one other thing that I wanted to ask is why this even went to trial at all, considering that three of S .B .F.'s own colleagues will be testifying against him and have already pleaded guilty. So I don't really know. I'm not a lawyer. But in my head, it's like when you have that kind of testimony against you, you know, from witnesses that were directly there, does that mean that a plea deal wasn't even on the table? Or do you think Sam declined such an offer or, you know, what happened there? I am sure that if he had wanted to plead guilty, I doubt very much that the government would have been interested in letting him cooperate because he is, so to speak, the kingpin. When the government lets somebody cooperate, that is, plead guilty and testify against others to get a reduction or leniency at sentencing, typically the government wants to get somebody in the middle or the bottom and cooperate them up against somebody higher up in the food chain of a crime. I don't think there's anybody above S .B .F. We could have a discussion about whether he maybe knows things about others who would be peers of his in the industry, but I doubt the government was interested in his cooperation. Would they have let him plead guilty just to have some reduction in sentence exposure for the certainty of a conviction? They probably would have, but I expect they would have wanted a very stiff plea. And I think S .B .F., as some defendants do, they take the position, I didn't do anything wrong. I didn't act with intent to the fraud. And when intent is the key issue, what was in somebody's, between somebody's ears when they were doing something, it's very often that that gets tried. White collar criminal cases get tried a lot. And I think people, it is important in a white collar criminal case, when you're talking about fraud, very often, 97 percent of the facts are not going to be in dispute. In other words, the facts of did people deposit money or funds or digital assets on FDX not in dispute? What did the terms of use say, not in dispute? A lot of the activity is not in dispute. The question is, what was Sam thinking when he did certain things? Was he acting with the intent to deceive people and take their money or were other people doing that and he was just blissfully unaware? And so what you're saying is it really could be either that the government didn't offer the plea deal because they wanted to use the other witnesses to get him or that Sam wanted to take that gamble since, you know, it would be harder to prove what his intent was. So you're saying it really could be either? It could be either, but I would expect knowing the, I think if Sam wanted to plead and was willing to take stiff terms, he probably could have. I think that he drives the buck. The government decides whether you get charged, it's really up to the defendant to decide whether they go to trial. I don't expect they were going to be, as you say, it's a stiff plea that would have been available if anything. I mean, there was going to be no light sentence on the back of a plea here. So I think Sam was looking at any plea would have probably been a long time behind bars. And so at that point, maybe you decide to take your chances in his shoes. Because of the sheer amount of money and the number of charges. Yeah. Okay. So the main task at the start of the trial will be to choose the jurors. What do you think each side will be looking for when it comes to prospective jurors? So we've got a, you know, a little bit of a, of a hint from the voir dire questions that each side has put forward. You know, I think - That's the name for the process for vetting the jurors. Exactly. Maybe, maybe it makes sense to start with sort of how that process will unfold. So the trial will start with the selection of jurors and it's very different in a civil case as we're dealing with here or than in the criminal case. So civil case, the lawyers get to ask questions directly of the jurors, particularly in state court and it's a very freewheeling process. In a federal criminal case like this, the questions are handled by the judge and both the prosecution and the defense have submitted proposed questions to the court that will help guide what the court asks of the jurors. And a lot of it is pretty typical stuff that both sides somewhat agree on. And you want to know if people have any connection to any of the parties in the case, any of the lawyers in the case, if they have certain direct background and exposure to FDX or things like that. I think where some of the differences lie is whether people have broader exposure to crypto or the crypto industry generally, if they have views on any of that, or even the financial markets is one of the areas that parties may be touching. And then once we move past that, the defense was trying to, you're asking the judge to get into areas that I don't expect he will, but looking for any exposure to or experience with people with ADHD, any things along those lines that you can tell are sort of teeing up some of their defenses. So I think the defense will be looking for people who will be more sympathetic to some of those additional factors where, as I imagine the prosecution will be looking for people who are probably generally skeptical of crypto overall and avoiding any of those sort of sideshows. I would put it in three buckets. I think the government and the defense will think about the types of jurors into three buckets. One bucket are people who are sort of the quintessential citizen, common sense oriented. They work a job they can convict. Those are the people the government likes. So somebody who holds a job, somebody who is a boss, somebody who's a mid -level manager. So they are committed to society. They have to make decisions. They sometimes have to make decisions on incomplete information. That's the type of person the government would want. Then you've got people who are extremely technical, who want proof in mathematical certainty. Those are folks that the defense would like and that the government might not like. And then in the third category is another group that the defense would like. And those are folks who are more emotional and not necessarily going to be driven by the sort of inferences the government will put before them. So for example, the government likes to strike social workers, very afraid of having a social worker on there who might sympathize with a young defendant and say, you know, maybe a mistake was made here. I'm not sure beyond a reasonable doubt that this person should go to jail. No, wait. Just to go back to people who are either familiar with crypto or financial services, it wasn't clear to me. So it seemed like you were saying that, you know, the government would seek people who were skeptical of crypto. But if you're, if you just are knowledgeable, then is that, it seems like that would be better than for the prosecution rather than for the defense. Am I right in thinking that or? It's hard to read the tea leaves of exactly how that one will cut. You know, one of the defenses that, that we can see Sam Bankenfried would like to put forward and that the prosecution is opposing is an idea of sort of blame the regulators, blame the uncertainty in the industry, all of those sort of things to suggest that this was wild west, it wasn't clear what the rules of the road were, and therefore that should absolve him of some responsibility. And I think that's something the prosecution understandably doesn't want to get into and the judge has indicated, you know, there's going to be a pretty tight leash on anything like that, I think. But people who are very steeped in the crypto industry may have more of those views. They may be, you know, they may think that the uncertainty in the government's approach is partially to blame for what's happened, things like that. And so anybody who's so close that they may have some of those views may not be an ideal juror for the prosecution, but somebody, you know, somebody who's lost money, lost money or knows people who've lost money in some of these scams may be, you know, may be more likely to be a good juror for the prosecution. So it's hard to see exactly how those things will cut. I think it's important to note also, we call it jury selection, but it's actually a misnomer. The right name for it should be jury deselection. You don't pick your jurors. You get a pool of people and you have a certain number of strikes. And so really what you're doing is picking the worst apples and deselecting them and you're stuck with what you're left with. And so it's really, I think when trial lawyers do jury selection in a criminal case, they think about who are the people I have to get rid of? Who can I just, who can I not have on the jury? Government does not want the social worker on the jury. The government does not want, they don't like lawyers on the jury because they fear that a lawyer might just take over, creates unpredictability. Another sort of advantage for the defense is that the government has to get 12 jurors unanimous to prevail. If the jury is not unanimous, that's a hung jury and it's a mistrial, which basically is a victory for the defense. And if the jury unanimously wants to acquit, that's a victory for the defense. So it's the, the, the, the government needs to be able to get a group of people who can agree. Maybe somebody leads them and the rest of the people can go along with it, but they have to be able to reach consensus. That's important as well. Yeah. This is definitely a pretty complicated chess game. It sounds like, so one other thing that will happen or might happen after the jury deselection is that Judge Kaplan, Judge Lewis Kaplan, who is the judge in this case, might give a pre -opening jury charge. Explain what that is and why it is that he might give this or why he might not. Sure. So it is common practice before the commencement of the, the body of the trial, which is the opening statements of the lawyers, the presentation of evidence, and then closing arguments. Before the sort of body of the trial, the judge will typically give preliminary instructions to help the jury understand what they're going to hear. So the judge will say, you know, you're going to hear opening statements. These are the lawyer's attempt to give you a preview of what to expect, what the lawyers say is not evidence. And some rules of the road, some general rules of the road, and that's common. What Judge Kaplan does that's unique, he doesn't do it in every case, but he has done it in some, some criminal cases where it's complicated, is he will hone in on what he thinks is a key issue in the case and flagged for the jury. One of the key issues in this case is going to be a dispute about X. Here are the key rules you need to know about the law on how to decide X. Why is that important? It focuses the jury. It gives you a sense of what the judge thinks is the real battleground.
Food Addiction, the Problem and the Solution
Recovered Food Addict Erin K. Reflects on Her Sugar-Coated Childhood
"Today on the podcast, we are welcoming Erin Kay, who identifies as a food addict. Welcome Erin and thank you for being a guest today on the podcast. Erin Kay Thanks, Susan. Great to be here. Susan Branscom Yeah, it's great to have you here. It's going to be a great discussion. We are going to get into some questions and talk about your story and your history with food and how you recovered from the addiction. I understand you do identify as a food addict, right? Erin Kay Correct. Yes, I do. Susan Branscom Yeah. Yeah. So let's start with your story. When did you know that you did not eat like other people normally, as we say, and that you reacted to food, treated food differently than others? When did you start talking about your story? Erin Kay Well, I had a sense that I was different around food, pretty young. And as a young teen, I started to think more about it. An event that really stands out in my mind from my childhood was when I was about six years old. I had an older brother, only a year or so older, and we would get our own breakfast. We had a new baby in the house and we'd have cereal and I would put about five or six scoops of sugar on my cereal. And when my mom, who was trained as a dental hygienist, would find our milky, sugary coating in the bottom of the bowl, she said, you cannot eat sugar. That's too much. I'm hiding the sugar bowl. And I remember very distinctly in my mind at six me like, I will find the sugar bowl. But the weirdest thing was that my brother, 15 months older, did not seem bothered by a hidden sugar bowl. And the first thing I thought was, what is wrong with him? Like, there's something wrong about him. Now, as I grew older and became more self -aware as a young teenager, I started to realize that it was probably me that was different with food. And that came from a preoccupation with food. And when I was in my young teens, I had access to more food. Like I said, growing up with a dental hygienist as a mom, we didn't have a lot of sweet food in the house. But once I started babysitting and had access to food at other people's houses, but more importantly money to go out, I was a free range seventies and eighties kid. I could just go find my fix. I could find sugar in a lot of different forms and a lot of different places with my babysitting cash and a bike or a bus pass. I just got busy getting the food that satisfied that craving. I needed it to feel normal after not too long. So consider I my childhood to be what I call sugar -coated. I would get sugar wherever I could get it, from my grandparents' house, babysitting. And in my high school years, I remember swearing off certain foods. I gave up M &M's for a while just because they were running my life. And as a 14, 15 year old kid, I didn't start dieting really until my teens. And that was really hard to do. I usually try to just over exercise because giving up food just did not seem like it was an option. Yeah, I relate to a lot of what you said. I remember my birthday cake when I was five years old. I mean, today, I'm 64. I still remember my birthday cake. I remember the colors. I remember how it tasted. I remember I couldn't wait to have it and have more. I mean, early. This is five years old. And the babysitting, I don't know if you ever did this, but like I'm babysitting. Let me eat their food. You know, the ice cream in the fridge or the cookies or whatever. And I wanted to get away with it. One time they came home early and I was horrified. I put the ice cream bowl back in the freezer and thought, oh, they're going to find it. No, I did that. Oh, yeah. Babysitting was free range. Lots of goodies. And then in our teens, you know, we're women. We go through puberty and the weight, you know, our hormones change, right? And weight starts coming on. And then that's when my dieting really started. Did use you diets when you were a teenager? Well, I do remember going to a Weight Watchers meeting as a preteen. I don't think I went to any more than one. But again, dieting did not seem like a very good idea. Like I couldn't handle the notion of not being with my food. It was my solution. So what was interesting was that at age, I went to my first 12 step meeting around food at age 16 and a half. had So I a family member take me to my first 12 step meeting. So there was something innate in me that knew that dieting probably wasn't going to work very well. And then I had a degree of powerlessness that could only be addressed with help. So that was age 16.
The Charlie Kirk Show
A highlight from The Process is the Penalty with John Eastman and Rep. Andrew Clyde
"We're proud to announce our brand -new ACLJ Life and Liberty Drive. Our legal teams will be focusing on the issues that you, our ACLJ members, have told us matter the most to you. Life and religious liberty. We join the ACLJ in the fight to keep America free. Hey everybody, it's Hannah Charlie Kirk show. Andrew Clyde joins us to talk about trying to defund Jack Smith.

Charlie, what you've done is incredible here. Maybe Charlie Kirk is on the college campus. I want you to know we are lucky to have Charlie Kirk. Charlie Kirk's running the White House folks. I want to thank Charlie, he's an incredible guy, his spirit, his love of this country, he's done an amazing job. Building one of the most powerful youth organizations ever created, Turning Point USA. We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country. That's why we are here. Brought to you by the loan experts I trust, Andrew and Todd at Sierra Pacific Mortgage at andrewandtodd .com. Joining us now is Representative Andrew Clyde. Congressman, thank you for joining us. He tweeted out, the American people gets to decide who wins the White House, not the deep state. We must defund the left, sham prosecutions against Donald Trump. Republican lawmaker unveils push to block funding for Trump prosecutions, obviously, but this was met with opposition by 16 Republicans. Inexplicably, we will name their names shortly. Actually, we'll get to that. Congressman, thank you for joining us and tell us about it. Well, thank you, Charlie. It's great to be with you. Well, I think it's important that, as you said, the American people decide who our next president is going to be and not the deep state, not the weaponized government. And we are seeing time after time where the federal government is being used to prosecute a political candidate. That doesn't happen in America. That's kind of the conduct that you see in banana republics, where the sitting that those in power use their power to prosecute and try and throw in jail their political opponent. So these two amendments, so one would defund from the federal level any funds going to the prosecution of a presidential candidate between now and the November 24 elections, OK? And then the other amendment would do the same thing. It would deny federal funding to any state entity that does the same thing, that prosecutes a presidential candidate. It's very even handed, both Republican or Democrat. So what I'm trying to do is prevent the process from becoming the penalty here, because that's exactly what the left, the weaponized left is trying to do. Because you can't recover from the process. So how is this being met by and I was talking about actually when you tried to defund the FBI headquarters, we'll get that in a second. How is this being met by your more moderate Republican colleagues? Well, so far, for those that I have spoken to on the Appropriations Committee and in leadership, it's being met very positively. I think it's the right thing to do. There's still some work to be done. So I'm calling on all of my Republican colleagues to support these amendments. It's going to have to go into the Commerce Justice Science appropriation, which has not yet been marked up in our Appropriations Committee. I'm on that committee. And so I'll be offering both of those amendments and I expect that they will be approved and go into the base text of the bill. But then if we do a C .R. as well, you know, there's some qualifications for or any C .R. to go forward, in my opinion. Then it would have to be part of the C .R. as well. So I think it's very, very important that that all the Republicans get on board and support these amendments. So there was also a question about blocking the FBI's new headquarters. And is it true that 16 Republicans got in the way of that, Congressman, when you were attempting to do that? Tell us about it. Well, that was in the markup for the financial services and general government appropriation. And there is about six hundred and seventy million dollars that was set aside for the FBI's new building. It's about a little over half the amount that currently exists. The whole project is like four billion. It's going to be bigger than the Pentagon in size, which is absolutely ridiculous. The FBI does not need it by introducing an amendment to defund that six hundred and seventy million and to apply that to our national debt to pay off that portion of our national debt. And it did not pass in the in the appropriations process. We had 16 Republicans that voted against it. Now, I'll tell you that after that vote, there were some that came to me and said, hey, I think I made the wrong vote. And we're going to give them another opportunity when that actual appropriation comes to the House floor. I'm going to introduce the same amendment again. And I think there will be some change of heart, I believe, when it comes to their vote on that amendment on the House floor. So, yeah, there was a list of 16 Republicans that resisted it. Is that correct? And I want to that is correct. OK, so I want to name them. And if I have the wrong list, correct me. But it looks as if it's Steve Womack, David Valadeo, Mike Simpson, Hal Rogers, Daniel Newhouse, Julia Letow, David Joyce, Ashley Henson, Kay Granger, Scott Franklin, Jake Elsie, Mario Diaz -Balart, Juan Siscamani, Jerry Carl, Ken Calvert, Mark Amati and Robert Alderholt. What what possible reason could they give you for opposing that? Well, not a lot of them gave me a reason at all. But, you know, mind you, some of them came to me after the fact and said, hey, you know, I think I made the wrong choice. Why? Because they were hearing from their constituents. The FBI does not need a new building. I mean, they've got one point two billion dollars set aside, six hundred and seventy or so million in financial services, general government appropriation and another five hundred some million in the commerce justice science appropriation. So I think these folks will probably take a strong second look when the amendment comes onto the House floor for the FBI bill. And I believe that that there will be some change of votes. I really do. And I hope so, because that's the right thing to do. The FBI has been so weaponized as of in the last couple of years under this current administration. There is truly a two tiered system of justice here. We are seeing it time and time again when you have the treatment of Hunter Biden and then you have the treatment of President Trump. And all of those who support the conservative voices that are crying out. So I think we're going to see some different votes here. So let's now focus on September 30th. This looks to be the big day, right? So a previous Congress punted it to really, really neuter you guys. So this date has been on the calendar for quite some time. So you're inheriting a previous Congress's funding deadline, September 30th. What are you guys willing to do? Our position on this program, no short term funding bills, line in the sand. We need a fight. We gave you guys a majority for a reason. Where's your head at? What are the asks? Are you willing? How close to the line are you guys willing to get? Walk us through it. Well, I'll tell you, first off, you know, we've known the September 30th deadline has been here for a long time. And we promised as Republicans that we would bring 12 appropriation bills out of committee onto the House floor. And I expect us to do that. I expect us to keep our word. I'm on the Appropriations Committee. I'm certainly willing to be there from from today until the very end of September so that we can get all these, the rest of the appropriation bills across the finish line. Ten of them have come out of committee already. We've got two left to deal with in committee, both the Labor Health Human Services Education Appropriation and the Commerce Justice Science Appropriation. Those are the two we have left in committee. But we've got 10 that are available to go to the House floor. Actually, one already has the Milcon VA passed in July. So we've got nine that can go immediately to the House floor and get a vote. We need to be doing that to keep our word. Any short term continuing resolution, though, cannot be an unqualified or blind or what they call clean CR. Otherwise, we are simply promoting the policies of the policies and the spending levels of Nancy Pelosi. And that's wrong. I will never support that. And I'll tell you, a significant number of Republicans will not support that either. Well, that message needs to be heard loud and clear by the leadership. So just really quick, Congressman, and I just I'm hearing different things and I've always gotten along with Speaker McCarthy and I still do. But there's whispers that there might be a vote to vacate. Are you hearing that from other members? Well, I will tell you that a clean CR or an unqualified CR, it will risk our majority and therefore it will risk the speakership. I think what you're seeing is is the country gave us the majority to change the direction, change the course of Congress. We had the speakers fight in January, which I think fundamentally changed the way Congress operates. And I think that has to continue or we will truly jeopardize our majority and we will jeopardize Kevin McCarthy as speaker.

A highlight from Tucker Carlsons Interview With Former Capitol Police Chief Steven Sund Reveals Lots Of Key Details About Jan. 6th
"So, I want to first of all give you some background on this poll, this, some would say shock poll that was just released moments ago. It's a top Republican pollster. It's a Republican leaning pollster called Signal, C -Y -G -N -A -L. They hold an A rating with the poll aggregator 538. In other words, they're a pretty well respected polling company. And results have been released showing that Ron DeSantis has slipped into third place nationally in the Republican field behind businessman Vivek Ramaswamy. Trump, of course, is the clear leader of the Republican field. He holds steady as the top pick. He's at 53%. Ramaswamy is at 11%. DeSantis is only at 10%. Last night here in San Diego, we had a terrific event. Great, the great, the answer in San Diego, our home here in this beautiful city. A couple hundred people came out to see Brandon Tatum and I and we had a great time. Andrea Kay was the moderator. And by a show of hands, we said, who are you supporting in 2024? Everybody in the room raised their hand for Donald Trump. When Ron DeSantis' name came up, only two people in the whole room meekly raised their hand. Our latest straw poll that we've partnered with Town Hall shows about 86 % of our respondents to the poll are supporting Donald Trump, about 12%, or no, I guess it's 9 % on the last number I saw, Ron DeSantis. We've joined forces with our friends over at townhall .com and are presenting the 2024 Republican presidential straw poll. And I hope you'll take part because it gives us sort of an idea of where you are, where the American people are. Go to mikestrawpoll .com, vote for your favorite Republican presidential candidate, let your voice be heard. That's what we did last night here in San Diego. It was a good old fashioned town hall. They broke all the rules here at The Answer San Diego and I loved it because normally stations don't like to put mikes into the audience and have people, you know, read speeches and opine, but Steve Brodsky said, we're going to do a good old fashioned town hall and Andrea Kay started asking, having people ask questions from the audience about five minutes into the event. I thought, well, here we go. And there were some kind of unusual moments. Some people had different, you know, messages than others, but that's fine. It was a great night and people are passionate about voter integrity. People are angry about what Jack Smith is doing to this country and people are all in for Donald Trump. I wish we spent more time last night and I want to spend a few minutes with you right here right now on this Friday, August the 11th in the Relief Factor mobile studios. Our day, a final broadcast from San Diego before we head home later today. My question to you, what is happening to the Ron DeSantis campaign? Now think about my question.

Judge halts South Carolina’s new stricter abortion law until state Supreme Court review
"South Carolina's newly signed abortion law has been temporarily halted by a judge. Judge Clifton Newman's ruling sends the new law that bans most abortions in South Carolina around 6 weeks of pregnancy to be reviewed. Planned Parenthood sued almost immediately after the bill was signed, a judge Newman said it would end up before the state Supreme Court anyway. The law is similar to one in 2021 that was struck down after the justices ruled three to two that it violated the state constitution's right to privacy lawmakers say the new law includes technical tweaks meant to appeal to justice John few, who wrote in his previous opinion that legislators didn't show that they did any work to determine if 6 weeks was enough time for a woman to know she was pregnant. The halt means the state reverts to a restriction at around 20 weeks for now. Since that decision justice Kay Hearn retired, making the South Carolina high court the only one in the country without a woman on the bench. I'm Jennifer King

The One Must-Have Skill for Successful Podcasting
"What is the skill set that you absolutely must have if you're going to be a podcaster who builds an audience, it doesn't happen overnight. It's an incremental addition, somebody does word about, hey, have you listened to Buckeye talk or if you're in Alabama fan? Have you listened to college football survivor show? If you're an NFL fan, I think and you want to know about the brands if you're from ESPN, you got to listen to Mary Kay and Dan and Ashley. They know what they're talking about. So what's the skill set? Mary Kay has got 30, what's she done this for 25 years with the browns? You can't replace that. You can't make that up. No. So I do think the depth of knowledge is a requirement. I don't mind if I'm listening to people and I do this. I'm wrong. I'm wrong. But I still feel like I always know what I'm talking about. I just within that might be wrong about a prediction, wrong about how I view the game, but you can tell when people don't really have a grasp of the subject. So if you don't have a grasp of the subject, it is hard to podcast about that. Doesn't mean you're always right. So that's one. Really the main thing for me is framing that you are talking about a thing that everybody talks about. But you frame it in a way that either people haven't thought of, your audience doesn't have time to dive into it that deeply because for them it's a hobby for you at your job. The framing and synthesizing information. But as we're talking about the Ohio State defense, but we're going to frame it in a way that you haven't thought of that we've done research about. And then the two other things are confidence. They can tell if you're not confident. You have to believe in yourself. But then I also think within that, you have to be self deprecating. And you have to make fun of yourself along the way, but you have to be rock solid in your beliefs. Because it is no fun to come and listen to somebody who's like, well, I don't know, maybe say what you think. What's wrong, admit it? Admit when you're wrong and then come back and be strong with your next opinion and believe it, don't be fake about it. Know what you're talking about, but then if you said, hey I thought they were going to lose, but they won. In 2019, I predicted Ohio State was going to go 9 and three.

Okay, so I would say my biggest mantra in my mother loves this. I came up with this when I was first kind of pursuing social media. I always like to say that my attitude improves with my altitude. So that is more for anybody that is in aviation, but I think that anybody can really take that. If you can get yourself to a high point during your day, make yourself a special kind of coffee, maybe go to Starbucks, grab yourself a treat on your way home. Do something that makes you feel good. It's going to improve your attitude and it's going to just kind of change your outlook on life for that day. And that could be the biggest difference for your entire week. I always know that whenever I'm having a really, really bad day, as long as I'm still safe, if I go for a flight in my airplane, maybe I go walk around and put my toes in the sand at the beach or something. It really tends to drastically improve my mood. Not even just for that day, but for a while 'cause I created a solid memories. So I always recommend if you can go and just do something small, something nice for yourself, that's really going to help. And that's what I always try to encourage people to do. That is some excellent positive pop and a fantastic way to sort of start wrapping up this episode. Is there any sort of charity involvement that you are currently involved in or anything that you would like to get involved with in the future as far as giving back to the local community?

Yes, so I'm not going to name any specific chapters just because I don't want anybody to be biased. I want them to enjoy the entire thing. But I will say one of the most exciting ones to put together was actually the story of when my student tried to kill me in the airplane. Now I say that it is a playful kind of statement because at the end of the day, I knew what I was doing. I was able to recover the aircraft and to help her feel better as well. But at the end of the day, it is a kind of a situation that makes you think, oh, wow. I had no idea that certified flight and shepherds have to go through that. Pretty much on a daily basis, depending on how often you fly. So that was a lot of fun to recreate. Obviously, the story of the rodents in my airplane is going to make everybody laugh. And then towards the end, I do start talking about when things started to change. When it went from, you know, me creating content basically for free to brands reaching out to me, wanting to partner with me wanting to use my face and some of their ads. I actually did an ad with one 800 contacts. They put it on Facebook and it was super successful, which was super exciting. And even though it didn't pay all the bills, it started to kind of give me that idea that, okay, social media is actually a potential career. And it's just gotten better and better every day. So I'm excited for people to be able to see kind of that progression. And just to know that I'm only human, you know? I had bad days, but as far as I'm concerned, nobody ever knew about it.

Social media, are there any events that you go to where there's like other famous pilots, how does this work? Is there something specific for pilots that have a social media following? So as of right now, really the only specific thing that pilots are really ever going to attend, whether they have a social media following or not, is definitely going to be air shows. So for example, I actually was partnered with sun and fun air show, which was absolutely incredible. They put me on their website. I was in their newsletter blast.

"There have been a few instances. I actually talk about this story in my book, but I'll give you guys a little bit of a little sneak peek behind the curtain, so to speak. About a year ago, I actually got the autopilot installed in my airplane. So this makes longer cross countries a lot easier. You can think of it kind of like cruise control in your car if you have it. And I was coming into land, everything was going according to plan. I was doing some practice approaches using the autopilot. So coming into land. And things just weren't going correctly. For whatever reason, my airplane kept just pitching the nose up, which is not good because it causes my air speed to drop. And I was having to fight those controls to keep the airplane from stalling, basically. And I was able to solve the problem, but in that moment, instinct took over more than anything and it was okay, I know what I'm doing. I know how to fly the airplane. Let's just go through and check everything and find out what the problem is. And if I couldn't figure out what the problem was, I was going to make an emergency landing. And that was kind of the whole mindset. And when I found the problem, which it turned out, there's something called electric trim. And it's a trim wheel, which is on one of the flight control surfaces of an airplane. It's just supposed to alleviate some of those pressures you feel when you fly the airplane, making it more comfortable for you. And it was trimmed all the way back, which was forcing that airplane nose to stick basically straight up. So when I found the problem, I was able to fix the problem. And then I tried again, come back into land and everything was great. But more than anything, the biggest thing that I remember is keeping calm. I knew that even if it was an emergency situation, I trusted my training, I trusted my abilities, and I knew I could still get that airplane down to the ground safely, but it was still

"Back to the episode baby. Absolutely. So yes, in most aircraft, you will have a GPS unit, and you can put in those waypoints that you're going to be flying to, as well as your destination airport identifier, and then that GPS unit will tell you how to get there. Now on top of that, because I like redundancy and I do a lot of flying in the clouds where you can't see the ground most of the time. I also use my iPad and I use the ForeFlight app. So I can put in the exact same route the altitude and all of my frequencies that I need for air traffic control communications are constantly set up for me there too. So it's just kind of a little backup plan. It's not a legal version of GPS that you can use as a pilot, but you can use it for situational awareness, which is exactly what I choose to do. So here we are talking about the GPS and the different ways of I guess Manning the airplane. I've noticed multiple times and again, I've never walked into an actual full on cockpit, of course. I've never had any training. I've never actually full on, like I mentioned, walked in and seen, but you guys know, if you've been on an airplane and I don't want to just assume that everybody has, right? So for my listeners that may have not been on an airplane before, I'm going to kind of describe what an actual commercial airplane cockpit sort of looks like and K will go ahead and describe it a little bit better because again, I'm no expert. But I've always found it super interesting when you're boarding a plane, right? There's all these switches and levers and buttons and all these crazy things and I'm like, dude, like, I don't know how people know what the hell a press or what's going on. So I want to ask you, first off, are all of these buttons in the cockpit and all these levers actually used every single flight.

"Carolina, but whenever we go to Florida K I am obsessed with going snorkeling. So for those of you guys that aren't familiar, the difference between scuba diving and snorkeling is snorkeling, of course you are not going below the water. You have like the snorkel, the mask and the little tube that pops up. So you're like right below the surface of the water. And you can't go that deep, obviously, because if your tube goes under the water, it's naturally going to fill up and you're going to ingest water, which isn't good. But if you're scuba diving, you have the tank, you have the breathing apparatus, you can go a certain amount of feet down and be able to explore a little bit more like Kate's talking about doing shipwrecks. So let's talk about some of the shipwreck excursions. What was that experience like? Have you seen any cool animals like stingrays or sharks or sea turtles? Tell us everything.

Because even though I don't like spiders and they look very similar here on the land in the sea, they look a lot cooler in my personal opinion. I haven't seen any sharks yet. I am hoping to get to see them at some point. I've seen a couple of baby sea turtles and some really beautiful colorful fish, but ultimately the shipwreck dive was more for the experience than it was to actually see all of the creatures of the deep as you will. And it was really an amazing thing to be able to do. And for that, we went down to 30 feet. So we were super deep, which was nice. And I guess my next question would be, as far as the certification process goes.

"Let's stop wasting our time with anything else. If that's really what you want to do, let's make it happen. So I went on my first flight, it's called an introductory or discovery flight depending on where you're from. And as soon as the wheels were off the ground, I knew that's what I was going to be doing for the rest of my life. I had finally found a passion of mine that wasn't just going to be a hobby, but I was also going to turn it into a career.

We just had a really really good time. So i was brought him grafting rosty just to get out to get to the automatic. How it sounds a bit lame. That's that matters. And then when. I realized what i wanted to do After two knots when i really kind of knuckle darn and all that stuff that we talked about earlier on about having a work ethic and programming self to work out. That's when all my kid If you could aleta on fatherhood here would it be to. What would you say. Wow i'd write it to me. H sixteen i k. Yeah an it would. I would basically just penn everything that's happened With kids like i drive like that manual that we talked to buy a the very very star. There are so many manuals So many instruction pamphlets what you do but it would just be. Yeah forget all about this is what you've got do. Just do this feed. Stick with these three rules than that is it. Forget sanitizing forget disinfecting. Everything just stick admi sochi and then over people. Don't come on. We've all done it a you know. Just just yeah just my own manual to me. I think essentially selfish book it would indicate all that fear and and kind of doing us that you get when you kind of step into thinking about fatherhood and all that. Yeah so much is that there's fair there's judgment as pressure you buy pay per thinking judgment is massive If you are about to have a kid just put blink azzam an you do what you think is rights because at the end of the day. It's no one else's child put yours. That's important. I forget what people think about your promo. You know stupid stuff. Oh how can you trust a lot that eta. It's none of your business. Yeah i always think the people are sipe passionate about whatever has worked for them because they've gone through stuff and they found what works for them so that therefore they're passionate about it but that doesn't mean the wherever they're passionate about is going to work for you. We have to go through this thing where we're like plucking all these different tools that we've heard about then. Just chuck it out now. That didn't that didn't work hold done. This works yeah.

In myself because i get to intertwined. I guess that's the time thing isn't it so memory can only do so much because there was one where the efficacy final was on. I'm on the phone call. Because i was really jittery for the second one. Yeah i don't know. I don't know tested you've got to go. You got to leave. You've just got to leave. So i left. And that was a pct on the calmness. I went and watched the first half of the efficacy final The second one was a natural birth and very kind of amber to arrive during halftime. Oh that's nice yeah. Yeah and she's been the same since always thinking of adopts you managed to get back in time i it's i rushed back and everything was great and Yeah test was a million dollars after the natural birth compare to caesarian for obvious reasons and we were kind of wish without a natural birth. I i think. I think there's so much around that isn't there. Where c sections. Have this stigma. Which they simply shouldn't have because as major surgery or goes into that light hearted. Thank you easier to see section than more than a natural birth bought. A c section is major major surgery. And you can't do anything for weeks after And then with amber pronin straightway both fatalite meeting amber while phoebe at the time how dole's and a lot of problems could only stove so it was like that see not as soon as we got home it was dolls and then west baby.

"Used to have anxiety depression the whole nine yard working in a ptsd treatment facility learning that. Hey i think i may have had. Ptsd you know all these different things in it. All was part of my path because it all let me to discovering my spiritual path and it helped me become who i am today. So don't see that anything that happened in the past as waste of time or you wish you wouldn't have experienced you want to allow yourself to see the gift within each challenge because when you allow yourself to see the gift and really allow yourself to see it added. Everything happens for a reason. Everything happens to your highest and greatest good and also i want to add everything happened. Divine timing by the way right. I know my path was what i am doing now. It's helping others awakened to their power within. But that's what. I had to learn all time to awaken to my power within so i can create abundance to success to freedom to happen as whatever want it all was part of my journey. Everything that you have experienced up until this point is all part of your journey. If you would only take one part out of it you would not be where you're at today. You would be off your path everything that you've experienced the good tabet of it. All of it had lessons that you are meant to learn to either awaken to find your path to course correct. Maybe you've been totally off course. It was all meant to happen the way it did. And when you allow yourself to start developing that mindset that okay even though you know things are not the way. I like them right now. It there's a lesson here anyone allow yourself to tune into it and i'm about to share with you process. You can do to allow yourself to really see the gift. So how how you can really uplift yourself by seeing the gifts in each challenge because that is so powerful when you allow yourself to be uplifted by your challenges you can grow so tremendously now. One of the things and i almost smacked my coach for that when he said if he would have been if it would have been over the phone if we would have been face to face of smacked him when he said that. Because when i used to always think you know fibromyalgia was ruining my life. Because i couldn't do a lot of things because always in pain or even just a thinks that my exit to me when he brought me here and he left me here and the hell he put me through you know. He's that my coach. Said that everything that i experienced happened for reason happened to my highest I'm like how can this happen to live and greatest good. I mean pain all the time right. My life is sucks. Because i can't do a lot of things i'm missing out on work. I missing out on money. Because i'm always sick and i was always in pain and that was when i was working still and with my ex. Like how can this be to my highest and greatest good humane if it wasn't for my son. I don't think i would still be alive because the stuff with my ex. Put me through so i had a really hard time understanding what he meant but i mean it took some time and it was also part of because of my own person development journey and spiritual awakening journey that it started to make sense when he said that in our hope that it will make sense for you to when. I say that everything happened to you in your life. It didn't happen to you actually happen for you and happen. For a reason it happened to your highest and greatest. Good and i want to invite you to allow us to see gift.

"Hi there welcome back to another episode super excited you tuning in again now. Today's episode. I would like the top little bit more about how to uplift yourself in order to uplift others. And why you must do your work first before you can actually help others. So the thing is you know you have to. It all starts with you now. You can't really help others if you haven't done your own work first and especially when it comes to healing and and being light worker and being an impasse being back coach a mentor. Anything where you're actually helping other people in one inner level you gotta do your own work first before you can help someone else. It all starts with you or otherwise. You won't know how to help them right because you must learn what it's like or what they're experiencing in also how to make it out of a challenge before you can really effectively help someone else. So for example you are a healer. You have to go through your own healing. I oh he others. Let's say you're a coach or a mentor. You have have to do your own. Inner work i in order to impact someone else. Let's say you wanna create abundance right. You must have experienced financial hardship. I in order to know what others are. What needs to happen to break through any limitation whether your business coach mindset coach healer. A light worker or anything anything. Were you actually help other people. You've got to experience the stuff yourself first before you can help others and i get like someone actually asked me today because i had a conversation with someone and she was kind of frustrated because you know she has been trying to grow her business for many years and has really worked and you know she's she wants to empower others but the message that i was able to challenge for her to give her was that she hasn't really done her work yet. She hasn't gone deep enough and one of the things she had mentioned to music. But dr stay help other people. He'll you know they haven't experienced that. But the thing is. And i get it. I mean it does make sense may doctors. They help a lot of people. But if you're thinking about a doctor who only has book smarts will never be able to understand someone that for example experience physical pain now i exempt i have fibromyalgia and back into the nineteen hurt myself so bad that i had multiple things going on now. The doctors that i saw i saw multiple doctors. Not one of them understood what. I was saying because i kept telling them. It's like muscle related. But they kept saying no. It's your back you know. Because i also have a pinched nerve. I mean i have the degenerating discs. What herniated clear like no. No no this comes from you back. But i actually then discovered that i have do till ten and apathy. So it's like actually the tenants were inflamed. But you see the thing is all the doctors are. I think about six in one year. Not one was actually listening to me and hearing what i was saying. They couldn't empathize with me. Because day simply didn't know what i was experiencing and that's what i mean like you cannot help someone truly make a transformation. Yeah you can maybe give them some advice of what you have learned. Let's say you've done courses or if you've read a lot of books whatnot. Maybe you have the book smarts off how to create abundance or law attraction right but if you have never experienced a yourself you will the quality of service that you can provide to impact that you will provide will be completely different than you would have experienced it yourself so going back to the doctors example right in yes. The doctors can help patients by what they have learned. But when it's something like like what i experienced with pain or whatnot. If they've never experienced it they would never understand what i'm going through. And they would also not be able to help me as much as someone who would have experienced themselves with someone that had passed fibromyalgia to end. Who's overcome pain or whatnot.

You can take back your power by giving yourself thing. It's a gift to you. Gifting yourself what you desire. It's already in alexa. If you can just think about and lexin you felt it before otherwise you wouldn't feel lacking right because you felt it before so you know it's within you so tap into your own power to gift yourself. The deepest desires that you have all is created from within. There's nothing outside of yourself that will ever be able to give you what you desire. At least it won't last and be deeply fulfilling if you don't feel that already was in icu. Said if you love yourself at like twenty percent you can't expect anyone to love you at one hundred percent you have to love yourself at one hundred percent in order to attract someone that can love you one hundred percent.

"I guess it's also kind of outside influences but if they don't believe that you can become successful doing something so different than being a healer or whatnot because a lot of people that are still asleep. They don't they don't believe in that stuff yet did they. Don't they can't really grasp because they don't know what you are experiencing right. So you want to uncover. Where do you let outside. Sources influence you. And where have you taken on. Other people's believes of latin lack limitation doubt. Fear those things and also what are your own believes and dowd's in fears that are holding you back so you wanna look outside of yourself. Anyone look with in where you not standing in your power. Where are you allowing fear and doubt and lack in the mutation and worry and all of that stuff. Hold you back from really fully stepping into your power and doing what you know you are meant to do. The thing is awareness is really key because when you have awareness you have a choice to do something about you can heal release.
