Ajit Agarkar's selection committee has made one thing clear. Reputation alone won't guarantee a place. From backing Shreyas Iyer as captain to looking beyond established stars in certain formats, the focus remains firmly on performance, potential and long-term planning. A closer look at the selection philosophy shaping India's next...

VIDEO | Former Australia World Cup-winning captain and Punjab Kings head coach Ricky Ponting, if he sees PBKS captain Shreyas Iyer, is in the reckoning for the Indian T20 team as a serious contender to become India's next T20 captain and potentially replace Suryakumar Yadav in the future. "I think there are several contenders, but he's (Shreyas Iyer) one of the main contenders as far as I’m concerned. I think we saw at the start of the tournament just how good a T20 player he is and where he’s at, both on and off the field right now." "I think he’s a much more mature player than he’s probably ever been in his whole career. I think he’s completely on top of his game now. He’s probably a good example of what I was talking about earlier; it’s really hard to maintain a high level of consistency through 14 games of cricket. There are going to be times when you have your ups and downs as an individual and as a team." "I’m pretty sure he’ll bounce back in this last game that we’ve got. If he stands up and makes a big score, then we’re a good chance of winning the game." "I’ve been pretty vocal over the last couple of years that whenever India selects a team, and Surya’s not in it, I’m always very surprised. On the back of this IPL, I’m sure he’s one name the selectors will talk about, not just to get back into the side, but also with the captaincy next to his name." "The thing about Indian cricket is that you don’t just walk back into teams. You’ve got to put a lot of runs on the board and do it in a certain way. His season so far has been very impressive, and his captaincy has been excellent. I just think he’s in that little sweet spot in his life and career where, if captaincy came his way, then I think he’d make the most of it.” (Full video available on PTI Videos -

Today I sit down with two of my best friends, Moses Kagan and Rhett Bennett to reflect on how ReSeed has evolved since their first appearance (ep. 278) on the show three years ago. ReSeed is on a mission to back the next generation of elite real estate operators. We unpacked what has actually happened since launch, how their original vision has held up in practice, and what they have learned by deploying real capital across multiple markets and operators. We also dug into how they think about underwriting, operator selection, asset management intensity, and navigating a shifting multifamily landscape. It was a candid look at what it really takes to build a disciplined, long term real estate platform in today’s market. We discuss: • How ReSeed’s original thesis has played out after deploying over $100M across multiple operators • What they look for in emerging operators and how the cohort selection process has evolved • Why discipline and patience mattered during a slow deal environment and when opportunities finally opened up • How they approach underwriting, leverage, and long-duration capital in different markets • The realities of asset management, property management, and execution risk at smaller deal sizes This episode is for investors, operators, and anyone interested in building durable real estate businesses with long term alignment and disciplined capital deployment 4:01 - ReSeed's journey and evolution 17:14 - Profile and selection of operators 25:10 - Partnership and capital structure 37:39 - Due diligence and deal approval process 40:51 - Cohort integration and support 42:55 - Real estate market overview 43:22 - Market opportunities and challenges 50:41 - Market fatigue and seller dynamics 51:20 - Operational challenges and opportunities 1:01:50 - Property management and asset management 1:11:36 - Construction management and budgeting 1:15:06 - Capital allocation 1:23:34 - Closing remarks

We’re used to wars that get turned into movies. Maybe this war will get turned into a series. So there’s a first season with 'Rising Lion,' a second season, 'Roaring Lion,' a third season, 'Screaming Lion,' and a fourth—oh, you know what, are you setting us up for a cycle every eight or nine months? No, I think this was a very, very significant round, but it isn’t measured in terms of zero or one; rather, it’s measured on a much, much more complex axis. There was a significant reduction in nuclear capabilities. There was an even more significant reduction in ballistic capabilities, and there was a fatal blow to the regime’s overall ability to survive. Because now that they have rials, they have to decide where to invest them, and the dilemma is far from simple. Even before a new ballistic missile or a brand-new navy, they have to decide whether to invest it in the population that remains there. Look, in my view, as early as the second week—when it became clear that hopes the regime would fall during the war were probably premature or exaggerated—the preferred end scenario for Israelis and Americans was this: hit them as hard as possible, wage a war of attrition, and then finish it off while the American military is still in the area. The Iranian people understand what’s happening and, uh, are ready to do this thing. I have to say one thing: we Israelis have benefited from the war regarding the Iranian issue, but we should take a good look at what’s happening in the United States. Because in my opinion, that’s the—how shall we call it—long term, and there’s a problem there. There is a problem for two reasons: first, because the United States has not achieved, at least not yet, what it wanted to achieve; and second, because as long as it does not achieve it, the finger of blame will be pointed at the State of Israel. Therefore, we should invest a great deal of effort in the United States, in shaping public opinion there, and in particular, Republican public opinion.

What Do Fake Meat and a 'No-Fart' Cow Vaccine Have in Common? Bill Gates. It's no longer a conspiracy theory; it's a business plan. A pattern has emerged, clear and undeniable, traced through the financial investments of one of the world's most influential figures. For those who wish to opt-out of a technologically-driven, nature-phobic future, understanding this portfolio is the first step. A deep dive reveals a concerted strategy targeting the very fundamentals of natural life. The common thread? The replacement of the authentic with the synthetic, the natural with the lab-made. Here is a brief summary of key investments to be aware of: - The Fake Food Consortium: Companies like Beyond Meat and Impossible Foods lead the charge with lab-grown meat alternatives, while Eat Just pushes counterfeit eggs. Their long-term health ramifications remain a giant, uncontrolled experiment on the public. - The Coated Conspiracy: Apeel presents a seemingly innocuous produce coating. However, this wax-like layer, designed not to wash off, raises serious questions about the ingestion of its proprietary chemical cocktail over a lifetime. - The Synthetic Pantry: Through Savor, the goal is to create fake butter in a lab, further divorcing our diet from traditional, farm-sourced ingredients. - The War on Livestock: Arcea Bio is pioneering a "climate" vaccine aimed at stopping cows from flatulating. It's a direct intervention in natural animal biology under the guise of planetary salvation. - The Broader Agenda: This pattern extends beyond the plate, connecting to geoengineering projects aimed at "blocking the sun." The underlying philosophy appears to be a fundamental aversion to nature itself. The message to innovators is clear: if you want to attract funding, your pitch deck should champion "lab-made" solutions, even those with devastating long-term consequences. The evidence is on the balance sheets. It's not just about avoiding certain products; it's about recognizing a vision for the future that is fundamentally at odds with human and planetary well-being.

Linked below is the original article[1] from Politico. We'll see what the actual National Defense Strategy 2025 PDF says, but the article is consistent with remarks Hegseth[2] has made about China's military, particularly its hypersonics. Here's the piece. Pentagon plan prioritizes homeland over China threat This marks a major departure from the first Trump administration, which emphasized deterring Beijing. Pentagon officials are proposing the department prioritize protecting the homeland and Western Hemisphere, a striking reversal from the military’s yearslong mandate to focus on the threat from China. A draft of the newest National Defense Strategy, which landed on Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth’s desk last week, places domestic and regional missions above countering adversaries such as Beijing and Moscow, according to three people briefed on early versions of the report. The move would mark a major shift from recent Democrat and Republican administrations, including President Donald Trump’s first term in office, when he referred to Beijing as America’s greatest rival. And it would likely inflame China hawks in both parties who view the country’s leadership as a danger to U.S. security. “This is going to be a major shift for the U.S. and its allies on multiple continents,” said one of the people briefed on the draft document. “The old, trusted U.S. promises are being questioned.” The report usually comes out at the start of each administration, and Hegseth could still make changes to the plan. But in many ways, the shift is already occurring. The Pentagon has activated thousands of National Guard troops to support law enforcement in Los Angeles and Washington, and dispatched multiple warships and F-35 fighter planes to the Caribbean to interdict the flow of drugs to the U.S. A U.S. military strike this week allegedly killed 11 suspected members of the Venezuelan Tren de Aragua gang in international waters, a major step in using the military to kill noncombatants. The Pentagon also has established a militarized zone across the southern border with Mexico that allows troops to detain civilians, a job normally reserved for law enforcement. The new strategy would largely overturn the focus of the first Trump administration’s 2018 National Defense Strategy, which placed deterring China at the forefront of the Pentagon’s efforts....
