So,
67:34
no, it's to see what he's been able to do in less than a decade.
67:38
He's really, you know, shifted.
67:39
We talk about, you know, everyone's aware of autism.
67:41
One in 31 families are affected.
67:43
It's really about that action in between.
67:46
Eagles Autism Foundation, and he and his mom and his family just committed $50 million to start Lurie Autism Institute at Penn and Shop.

So I've seen
PJ VogtADVERTISER

Wow.

And all of that will be, you know, in June, we announced the money.
7:49
By January, all of the grant awards will be made.
7:52
All the community grants will be invested in, all while we're raising money for next year to beat that $16 million.
7:58
Right, right.
7:59
That's the thing.
7:59
You need to infuse these dollars in to make a difference, to transform lives.

It's really about that action.
16:46
And between Eagles Autism Foundation and he and his mom and his family just committed $50 million to start Lori Autism Institute at Penn and Shoppe.
17:38
And
170:12
It is.
170:13
Right now it's $1,100.
170:15
And so we built and opened a popcorn factory in partnership with Wawa, Popcorn for the People in Norion.
170:20
And so 9th and South Street in Philadelphia, there's a popcorn factory that employs adults with autism.
170:25
They make delicious flavors and they have a stand at Lincoln Financial Field.
170:28
So we helped fund that through our community grants program.
170:31
So Dallas really loved the popcorn that he enjoyed at our golf outing and said, that's what I want to do for my experience.
173:13
And for those that don't know, what went into that award?
32:23
It is.

15:37
us about that experience, and for those that don't know, what went into that award?
28:58
Can I say congratulations already? I mean, because we know this is going to be a huge two days.
29:03
It's incredible.
29:04
And every year we're chasing a record.
29:06
And I just came in to share, like, we're already $100,000 in bids ahead of where we were last year.
29:11
And I think it's a testament.
29:12
If you noticed, we have players stepping up to do two items.
29:15
And the enthusiasm is at an all-time high.
30:49
I mean, between you, Jason, Kelsey, Cooper, Dejean, Jalen Hurts, someone, Jeffrey, Lori, someone can probably get to LeBron and say, hey, give someone some time.
23:31

If you had the opportunity to talk to parents or caregivers of kids who are on the autism spectrum, what would you tell them about seeking help or, um, any advice that you could give based on your years of work with the autism community?
66:42
Yeah, I've been with this community, um, it found me, uh, back in 2009 when we cut the ribbon at the Kinney Center for Autism Education and Support.
66:50
So I've been with families on this journey a long time, and I think the most important thing is to get there and get the diagnosis so you understand what your roadmap may look like.
67:00
So do you need speech services? Do you need behavior analysis? What are things that are gonna help your child live their best life? It's really about this picture of, like, meeting them where they are and then helping them grow and thrive.
67:13
So I think for families to recognize that there's a community out there of practitioners and schools and the education system and teachers and therapists that are gonna help you.
67:23
And then the flip side is I would lean in to these other parents who have been there.
67:27
To see a mom mentor a newly diagnosed m- uh, family, it's just something that I've never seen such kindness and just generosity and a vested interest in, like, "I want to help you because I've been through this and I'm gonna share all the tips and tricks." I like to thank our, our neurodiverse employment program ...

10 MINS LATER

78:10
Silly.
4:19
So what did you learn from that type of research that could be applicable to how we think about today?
4:25
Yeah, well, we're trying to help investors think through when is the right time to buy these stocks or, you know, where is maybe the selling pressure overdone.
4:33
Uh, and so we did look historically to try to find periods where you had analogs of disruption risk in markets.
4:39
The two that we identified were newspapers in the 2000s, alongside the rise of the internet, and then tobacco in the 1990s, related to legislation more than technological disruption, but still kind of a relevant analog.
4:52
In both of those, uh, situations, we found two common threads: large price declines, in many cases, over multiple years, rather than the span of a couple of days.
5:02
Uh, but in terms of the forward path, it was really earnings that held the key.
5:06
The prices of those industries bottomed more closely to periods when earnings started to stabilize.
6:54
So when we look at the performance of these AI-centric stocks, what's driving that in the recent period?
