47:50
Where do you want to go first with this John?
47:52
Well, first, I'd always encourage couples to exhaust all other options before getting into the divorce process.
48:00
Solicitors actually have a duty to tell clients to explore counselling.
48:04
Now, for some people, they might say, no, we're over that, it's too late.
48:07
But a solicitor does have an obligation to say to a client, have you explored counselling? If they've done that and it hasn't worked out, then another possibility is mediation, where the two of them go to a mediator.
48:21
who tries to reach some kind of a solution it's it's not mediation maybe in the commercial sense of trying to get people back together but it's trying to figure out how they are going to go apart what's going to happen the house what's going to happen the business uh who's going to pay what where the children are going to reside all those things can be dealt with in mediation and might end up in a mediated agreement which then can go back to the lawyers and then you go ahead with the formalities of the divorce.
48:51
But they're the two preliminary things I'd always try and get people to do before they get stuck into formal divorce proceedings.
50:58
Tell us more about it please and what it actually means.
PaddyHOST
23:58
the announcements of various partners and teams might change how aware of you of the overall
24:02
score during the week yeah I was very aware yeah I knew once there was no scoreboards up we had a lot of people out there helping within the team room that you know we were in frequent touch with I suppose because you do want to know when it's a team event you want to know was that all you can do is you know take care of your own business you want to know how the lads are doing and you want to know how they're getting on and I've always been one.
24:22
I actually volunteered to Stu as well to go out last the first day.
24:26
I just always played that role in Home Internationals or whatever I played in of being the anchor match.
24:32
And yeah, the first day I did that.
24:33
But then the second day, I think he wanted to change things up a bit.
24:37
And obviously after myself and Mark won in the morning, I think he just wanted to get people who were writing away about early and try to get a few points on the board.

PaddyHOST
33:46
of clothes on, but hopefully a sweater vest.
13:33
afterthought.
13:34
Right.
13:35
So Taffney got mad about that.
13:37
But my whole thing is we're not really against anyone.
13:41
There's some people, of course, I'm just like, they definitely deserve the title of a delegate to the AFL, especially when you're a Republican and your Republican party is trying to smash labor unions.
13:50
But, hey, that's personal preference.
13:52
I believe in class struggle.

6 MINS LATER

19:51
Why should people drop out? But why should they drop out?
23:27
Mm
23:27
The, the primary level PE is, like, highly variable.
23:30
Some teachers are unbelievable at it.
23:32
Some teachers, they don't feel comfortable doing it for, for the supports and training they've had around it, and some just don't have the facilities to do it.
23:39
Alongside, there's a bit of a, I suppose, a polarization that if, if you're a parent who was active, your children see you being active, and you're likely to get involved in the local sports club, your children are very likely to do the same, and the opposite is, is the exact same case.
23:53
I think we're seeing that while we have those who maybe can't do the skills that quite well, there's probably as many on the other side who are doing far better than 10 or 15 or 20 years ago-

16 MINS LATER

40:13
Mm.
40:13
And trying to create those links where you're looking up, maybe a 10-year-old looks at a 14-year-old, or a 14-year-old looks at an 18-year-old.
TannerHOST
5:41
I mean, you had to make it stick.
5:43
It's just like Gunny, right? You listen to him talk and you have to find ways for people to remember things because it's just like data overload.
5:50
You walk around here, we could walk around here for three days and in a week, unfortunately, I'm going to forget the majority of what I saw unless you made it applicable to me.
TannerHOST
5:58
So what's one of your favorites?
6:00
I actually like boron, to be honest with you.
6:03
And the reason I kind of like the idea of boron is boron plays two key roles, like in our corn plant, right? And so if you look at a nutrient demand curve, we have this early season up until tassel where it's almost vertical intake throughout the whole year.
6:15
And then we get to tassel and it pauses for about four or five days.
6:17
And then we have this vertical intake again.
20:23
Uh, what is your read on that situation?
20:27
Well, I think there's, there's probably a lot that goes into it.
20:29
I- if you're going to make that comeback, number one, are they going to pay you what was left, you know, kind of on your original contract that you had, right? This, uh, collection of stars that the Rams have been able to, you know, accumulate, uh, you know, I think they've taken, uh, the NBA New York Knicks FM picks, uh, and taken it to a whole new level.
20:50
Uh, draft picks be damned if we can win a title.
20:53
Uh, you know, that's, that's what everybody's gonna remember.
20:55
But you also have to look at, at some point, uh, there is a salary cap implication of Aaron Donald coming back.
21:02
Number two, looking the way that Aaron Donald looks, you see the workouts, you see him when he's training, you know, with other NFL players, that's one thing.

14 MINS LATER

34:57
I know it's a big, it's a big topic.
1:35
John Murphy is one of the guides taking us across.
1:38
Yeah we're here at Snab Point on Walney Island and we're ready to set up despite the weather.
1:44
We've done all our health and safety checks and so on.
1:47
So we're taking members of Markham Bay Partnership across today and a nice little crowd with us and we're going to take about three quarters of an hour to get on to Peel.
1:58
I want to talk about Peel later on because Peel is so important to not only to Barrow-in-Furness but in history Important internationally.
2:08
The last invasion of England was actually on Peel Island with Lambert Simnel, the pretender to the throne.
2:16
And there's so many stories, so many legends, so much about the island.

13 MINS LATER

15:17
Oh,
speaker_4NARRATOR
23:38
You can't even blame the players, right?
23:42
Well, and the other thing is, is that, you know, like they have it built in to kind of have an idea, um, from year to year that, that it is trending up, right? So you see it last year, it went up, you know, 20, $30 million.
23:55
And, you know, the jacket you're wearing, right, the Cowboys then all of a sudden, uh, you know, made decisions that they, uh, were able to, to follow through with and say, "Hey, we're better," uh, not just having Micah, you know, Parsons with the other name brand players they have.
24:11
They tried to stretch their money, um, the best they can.
24:14
And I think that's still, in the NFL, there is some level, um, of competitive imbalance to say like, "Hey, the teams that are making money," uh, right? The Patriots who are now, um, you know, have what, 10 million followers, you know, uh, you know, uh, you know, uh, on every social media.
24:31
They are by far one of the, you know, most followed, uh, teams, you know, in pro sports.
24:37
That means that they have the luxury of having money- To use for all these gigantic signing bonus type deals while having a rookie quarterback contract.

12 MINS LATER

36:39
[laughs] We got some great games in week nine.
7:54
Mm-hmm.
7:54
The rank and file members started organizing without the permission of the branch presidents, without the branch, the, the, um, without the permission of the NBAs, and totally against national.
8:07
We weren't waiting for permission, 'cause we knew what was on the line, and we mobilized to make sure that we struck that tentative agreement down.
8:16
And on the national scale we need to be doing the same thing.
8:21
We have ICE abducting people.
8:24
That's our workers, that's our coworkers, that's our family, that's our friends, and that's our neighbors.
8:28
That's our community.

23 MINS LATER

31:44
Mm-hmm.
TannerHOST
26:54
Not everybody burns their beans back.
26:56
Right.
26:59
It's interesting.
27:00
You guys know I love to read published papers.
27:02
it's like 400 published papers a year over the last 10 years have come out on biostimulants i mean it's massive if you look before 2015 there were just a few right now from that point on if you were to google that like go on to google the scholar.google or whatever it's called i mean it would amaze you at the number of papers that came out And so when we think about, man, where would you put them? The papers are consistently showing that, man, you can put them on an early vegetative and it's going to help your growth.
27:32
It's going to give you better efficiency of your fertilizers.
27:34
It's going to help you mobilize nutrients better.

12 MINS LATER

TannerHOST
39:37
If you can't eat just one, and we know that 80% of our listeners aren't using any, where would
speaker_1NARRATOR
73:22
Uh, sir, what are your impressions of Arkansas and Texas up to this point?
73:26
Well, first of all, I, uh, would like to say that I am in no disagreement with the ratings as they are right now.
73:33
If we ever had a, uh, two teams worthy of a one and two designation, I would certainly say this is true this year.
73:40
Both marvelous football teams.
73:42
Uh, the thing that I am, uh, particularly taken with right at the present time, of course, we're, uh, attempting to scout both teams, which is a difficult assignment in itself, but the thing that I am, uh, particularly impressed with is the tremendous speed of the Arkansas defense.
73:56
Their recovery, their pursuit is just almost unbelievable.
74:00
Uh, however, uh, this is still anybody's ball game, and, uh, uh, I also am impressed with the tremendous power that, that Texas generates offensively.
speaker_1NARRATOR
74:29
Well, sir, could you tell us something about the Notre Dame team and how you might compare it with some of the great Fighting Irish teams of previous years?
35:25
Yeah.
35:25
Um, but, uh, I think they've right-sized, and, you know, the strategy's clear.
35:29
I think with every used car now more than ever, what value does this car give to your end consumer? And take that seriously.
35:37
Um, replaceability goes in- uh, c- comes into, uh, the play, uh, here, or the thought process.
35:42
But when it comes to sourcing used EVs, um, A, I think they're, because they're a lot more af- affordable because the supply is out there, um, it allows for us as retailers to not have to, um, lean on a rebate to get them sold and to really price them where it makes sense as a plan B or maybe, you know, multiple plans A for that customer, meaning they're coming in and they have a nice vehicle or a hybrid vehicle, and now the pricing of a, you know, a really, um, you know, well-loved used vehicle, used EV, is, is right there at the same price point.
36:13
That, that's really the big thing, um-

7 MINS LATER

43:43
Yeah
43:43
... nuances that just, again, don't fit that new car brand.
0:22
I'm at a Branch 226 at Panther City Branch in Fort Worth, Texas.
0:25
Goes on to all the city letter carriers across the country.
0:29
My name is John Murphy.
0:31
I'm a city-led carrier out of branch 4716 of the NALC.
0:38
I, along with my friends, are on the stand-up slate, and we're running for the AFL-CIO 2030 convention delegate positions.

5 MINS LATER

6:12
What can they do better in terms of can they organize better? Should they get more involved in politics? Should the AFL-CIO start backing politicians more than they do? What do you guys think
6:23
the changes that should happen in the AFL-CIO?
speaker_4UNKNOWN
32:37
Terms and points cap apply
32:38
for no yards in the first half, it's not really survivable to say that Greg Bell, even with missing week one, has under 150 yards rushing on the season.
32:50
So if you're turning the ball over like that, you're running for less than four yards a carry, you're going to have struggles in the CFL.
32:58
And I know they want instant, you know, sort of an instant response or an instant reaction to it.
33:04
But I would say one of the things that, you know, Ryan and I and the Argos benefited from is not having that COVID year means that you never saw what the first year of a rebuild in Toronto would look like because you kind of hit the ground running the second year and started winning games and everybody forgot about the four and 14 seasons that came before it.
33:26
If the first year in Toronto had been a six and 12 or five and 13, you remember very well.
33:31
Most of Regina thought that Chris Jones, myself, Jeremy, and all of us had completely forgotten how to spell football, let alone work, you know, in football.
35:24
Is there more to the story? Do you think or is that what it was?
29:25
Was that a surprise to you?
29:28
Um, yes and no.
29:29
I think the surprise part is that you've had Trey sort of listed as the two.
29:36
Now, the thing offensively is, again, is this a, on a week where you're traveling and you have this injury occur, what Jake does and how he would operate is more on par with the offense that you've put together to run with Bo Levi.
29:52
So can you run more plays, more of the whole system that you have in place with somebody like...
29:58
And then is there expectation this week that you see a little bit more of Trey Ford in some sort of role? I think the awkwardness of it was, it was, again, last week that Trey Ford gets a opportunity, but one mistake and I'm flipping, it's hard to keep that flip-flopping going back and forth at the quarterback position.
30:20
Um, but it could be something just as such as saying like, "Hey, at a certain point, um, do you have to commit to playing that style?" Because you saw it a few years ago.

10 MINS LATER

40:35
Do you feel they've righted the ship?
Hannah Furlong
Hannah FurlongCORRESPONDENT
7:23
So John, I suppose what would you be looking for in the upcoming cap with negotiations going on now for tillage farmers?
7:30
Yes Hannah, it's a problem I suppose at the minute.
7:35
We don't know where the budget is at.
7:38
We're very afraid within the tillage sector because I suppose historically we would have had high payments And it would have been backed up from Europe and from the government in the past.
7:49
But we've seen that being eroded between convergence in the last number of years.
7:53
But we will be pushing very strongly on the government that we will get a couple payment for the tillage sector.
7:59
Without that, we can't be, I suppose, farming for the environment if we're not going to be economically stable.
Hannah Furlong
Hannah FurlongCORRESPONDENT
8:48
And then, John, with talks of the straw incorporation measure, with it being oversubscribed and kind of no confirmation yet to farmers on, you know, whether they're accepted, what would you be looking for from the minister and the department?
21:57
Saturday, voted by our viewers Game of the Week, Edmonton-BC in Kelowna.
22:04
Yeah, I mean, I, I, I think it really just boils down to do, now you've had problems defending the deep ball and getting off the field.
22:12
But now you come in with a totally different animal, which is Justin Rankin.
22:18
Uh, you know, being able to pick up, you know, and gain yardage like he has, uh, you know, both as a runner, you know, and then as a receiver, right? He's got multiple, you know, 30, 40-yard, you know, pass catching, you know, pass catches already in the season.
22:31
You know, somebody that you and I, I think, have more of a, a, I'm not gonna say like for, but just respect for.
22:37
The way Cody plays football, you know, just a really good guy that just everywhere he goes, they win, and he doesn't get the credit for how well they perform when he's in the game.
22:48
And so I think that is gonna be something very interesting to see.

11 MINS LATER

33:35
What's going on?
1:56
What does it mean and how did it really reshape the plans for the decade?
2:00
well you know going through this work in a really deep dive always is very interesting because you try to do it you have thousands of of you know of products that you're looking at and i built this database all the way back to to 1970 so it's it's far more robust than what i've had before and we've put this new very detailed layer of powertrain into it And I think as you look at this, you always come up with these patterns, and you see things in the industry in a different way when you put all this data together, and it's really quite amazing.
2:40
What became very apparent over the past couple of years, but is really wild to see right now is how disruptive the EV programs have been to the industry.
2:51
And a lot of this was driven by free capital that was afforded to Tesla or close to free capital, I should say, close to free capital that's being afforded to the Chinese.
3:00
And their industrial logic of pushing EVs has a lot more to do with driving their national champions than it does the environment.
3:10
And then you look at what happened in Europe with Dieselgate, and they're having a knee-jerk reaction to that, which I don't really trust the European regulatory regime on where power trains really should go at this point, given how bad they failed with Dieselgate.
3:26
And you look at those three forces together, and it really drove the U.S. regulatory regime to push EVs and the automakers to follow along because they had to.

8 MINS LATER

11:44
market, what does that do for the brands that sell heavily in the U.S. market that still need to meet sort of global needs where EVs seem to-ish have more popularity?
43:49
Oh, yeah, from a soccer developmental standpoint.
43:52
But we're not talking to soccer people.
43:53
We're talking about, you know, people who are administrators and, you know, that are either – indifferent or do not like soccer.
44:02
So we got to be clear here that you have to account for there are people out there that, you know, at the very least are indifferent to soccer and there's a handful of athletic directors out there.
44:16
There's some really great ones.
44:18
Chris Davis of Georgia Southern is a fantastic athletic director that loves soccer.
44:23
So I know we have advocates out there.

13 MINS LATER

57:44
What was the impetus? What made you say, this is where I want to start it? And what are you hoping to get out of your study?
22:56
If people don't know, you'll never know, but do the Argos have a hope of winning in that place Friday night?
23:02
Well, I think, you know, here's, you know, Chad is now the third quarterback in Argos history to throw for 400 yards in two games in a row.
23:10
But never have they ever had a guy start the s- season with three 400 yard games in a row.
23:17
If they have a chance to win, it's gonna lean somewhat on that, but you're gonna have to start seeing some of the other things that the Argos invested in, in the sense of how does the defense play? Now, losing Robert Priester and you're going on the road to play a veteran quarterback, that could be an issue.
23:34
I would not be surprised early, um, if the Riders don't test that and try to, you know, take a couple of shots like they did against BC, uh, in the early going.
23:43
If they can kinda withstand the early possible onslaught there, you know, of that, if their O line plays like it's played for the most part, gotta give Brandon Kemp credit jumping in late, uh, and playing well, well, Chad and, and, and Trevor could throw it around the yard, and we could have another 700 plus yards of, you know, passing offense here.
24:04
Um, and then the one thing that the, that might benefit the Argos is this: It is a home game for the Riders.

11 MINS LATER

35:23
[laughs]
9:57
This one sounds, like, b- more sophisticated.
9:59
Yeah.
10:00
So Ecata's good, uh, because basically the, if you, you can, you, you can license the software that banks use to, to see the information, like, to, to under- to try to, to try to piece together what's going on in a transaction.
10:17
You, you pay, uh, you pay for the licensing fee.
10:21
You pay monthly, and then you do your own research, and you use the tool, and you enter your customer's details, and then you, you, you interpret then the, the results, and then you, you make a decision.
10:33
Uh, I was, I was one of the very first beta users for Ecata when it came out, and I was the first Shopify store to test their API.
10:42
It didn't actually work, and they pulled it.

11 MINS LATER

22:11
And then once you've compiled this, there's, this is the human step? Are there humans involved in this decision process?
3:39
[laughs]
3:39
Yeah.
3:40
That, that's a great point.
3:41
I completely agree.
3:43
Uh, we clearly see it in our used sales, right? And, and what we're observing, I mean, and the type of product we're selling.
3:49
I'll sell a Tesla in the 100-plus thousand mile range, and the, that consumer will be just completely happy, and they've already know how to test for the battery and all that good stuff.
3:59
But you touched on something that's really important, too, is with that educating the customer, and also what a real...

5 MINS LATER

9:29
It's just like this crazy, weird concentration of VinFast, and it all comes back to Halller Classic, sounds like.
