“I’m NOT Betting Deshaun Watson” — Jo Madden’s Browns-Jets Best Bet
Jo Madden is drawing a line in the sand: she isn't putting her money on Deshaun Watson. In this Madden On The Line short, Jo Madden, Vice President of Sports Gaming Media at CrossCheck Media Inc., breaks down Cleveland Browns vs. New York Jets and explains why she's staying away from Cleveland despite the Browns getting only 2.5 points. Jo's message is unmistakable: she doesn't trust Watson enough to bet the Browns. So where does she see value? Her favorite player-prop angle is Garrett Wilson anytime touchdown at +140. With the Jets at home and their defense playing well, Jo believes Wilson has a legitimate opportunity to find the end zone even in a game carrying one of the week's lowest totals. She's more cautious about laying Jets -2.5, however, and sees another potential angle in the under 39.5—or waiting for an opportunity to attack the total live. Browns or Jets? Jo has made her choice. But her favorite bet might not be the spread at all. 🔗 Website: https://biztalktodaytv.com 📧 Contact on Email: [email protected] 📢 Disclaimer: The views and opinions expressed on this program are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the official policy or position of CrossCheck Media Inc., Biz Talk Today TV (BTT), or their affiliated entities and distribution partners.

Jaguars -7.5 Over the Eagles?! Jo Madden’s Bet on Jalen Hurts
Jacksonville favored by 7.5 points over Philadelphia? Jo Madden never expected to see this line. In this Madden On The Line short, Jo Madden, Vice President of Sports Gaming Media at CrossCheck Media Inc., breaks down the surprising Eagles-Jaguars London matchup and explains why Philadelphia's injuries, late travel and early-season struggles have dramatically changed the betting market. Jacksonville has been the more reliable team against the spread, while Philadelphia enters London with major questions surrounding its roster. But Jo isn't automatically laying more than a touchdown with the Jaguars. Instead, she's targeting Jalen Hurts under 6.5 rushing attempts. Hurts remains dangerous whenever he takes off, but Jo points to the reduced number of designed runs and explains why she's targeting his attempts rather than rushing yards. And if Philadelphia gets healthier before kickoff? Jo says Eagles +7.5 could become very interesting—if bettors can still get the number. Jaguars -7.5 against the Eagles sounds crazy. But is the market actually telling us something? 📺 Biz Talk Today TV 🎙️ Host: Jo Madden Vice President of Sports Gaming Media, CrossCheck Media Inc.

Cowboys -8.5? Jo Madden Says DON’T Bet It—Here’s What She Likes Instead
The Cowboys are favored by 8.5 points against Tampa Bay—but Jo Madden wants nothing to do with that spread. In this Madden On The Line short, Jo Madden, Vice President of Sports Gaming Media at CrossCheck Media Inc., breaks down Buccaneers vs. Cowboys on Thursday Night Football and explains why she believes there are much better ways to attack the matchup. Instead of laying the points with Dallas, Jo targets the player-prop market. She likes Daniels over 46.5 rushing yards, believes Bucky Irving can clear 68.5 rushing and receiving yards, and sees opportunities on the Cowboys side with Dak Prescott over 263.5 passing yards and 2.5 passing touchdowns. And what about CeeDee Lamb? Jo warns that sportsbooks have already inflated some of his numbers after his huge performance—but she still sees an opportunity for a 30+ yard reception against Tampa Bay's defense. Jo also explains why she likes Tampa Bay's first-half team total over 9.5 and why waiting to live-bet Dallas could produce a much better number than simply laying 8.5 before kickoff. Dallas may win big. But that doesn't mean Cowboys -8.5 is the bet. 🔗 Website: https://biztalktodaytv.com 📧 Contact on Email: [email protected] 📢 Disclaimer: The views and opinions expressed on this program are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the official policy or position of CrossCheck Media Inc., Biz Talk Today TV (BTT), or their affiliated entities and distribution partners.

NFL Week 5 Betting: The Lines Are WRONG | Jo Madden’s Best Bets & Upset Picks
NFL Week 5 is loaded with dangerous favorites, market overreactions and underdogs Jo Madden believes are being seriously underestimated. On this episode of Madden On The Line, Jo Madden, Vice President of Sports Gaming Media at CrossCheck Media Inc., breaks down the NFL Week 5 betting board—looking for where the sportsbooks may have gone too far, which lines have already lost their value, and where bettors can still find an edge. It starts with Buccaneers-Cowboys on Thursday Night Football, where Dallas enters as a heavy favorite. Jo doesn't want to lay 8.5 points with the Cowboys and instead attacks the matchup through player props, including Dak Prescott, CeeDee Lamb, Bucky Irving and Tampa Bay's rushing game. Then comes one of the strangest numbers of the week: Jacksonville laying more than a touchdown against Philadelphia in London. Jo explains why injuries, travel and Philadelphia's early-season struggles have dramatically changed the market—and reveals the Jalen Hurts prop she likes instead of blindly betting the spread. But the biggest opportunities may be hiding with the underdogs. Jo calls the Las Vegas Raiders +3.5 against New England her favorite road dog of the week, arguing that the market may be overreacting to the Patriots' victory over Buffalo. She's even willing to sprinkle the Raiders moneyline. And then comes an even bigger upset call: Jo believes the undefeated Minnesota Vikings could suffer their first loss in New Orleans. She's backing the Saints and also breaks down touchdown opportunities involving Chris Olave, Alvin Kamara and Justin Jefferson. From Bears-Packers at Lambeau to Bengals-Dolphins, Browns-Jets, Texans-Titans and more, Jo goes game by game looking for the numbers worth betting—and, just as importantly, the traps worth avoiding. Forget the records. Forget the reputations. Week 5 is about finding where the betting market got the number wrong. 🔗 Website: https://biztalktodaytv.com 📧 Contact on Email: [email protected] 📢 Disclaimer: The views and opinions expressed on this program are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the official policy or position of CrossCheck Media Inc., Biz Talk Today TV (BTT), or their affiliated entities and distribution partners.

Is the AI Bubble About to Burst? Keith Schneider Unveils His New Market Warning Indicator
Is Wall Street sitting on an AI-fueled market bubble—or can the rally keep running? On this episode of Keith’s Corner, host Todd M. Schoenberger, CEO of CrossCheck Media Inc., welcomes back Keith Schneider, CEO and Co-Founder of MarketGauge.com, for a deep dive into the risks building beneath the market as investors head into the fourth quarter. Schneider unveils a new proprietary “bubble indicator” designed to help distinguish between a market that merely looks expensive and one where conditions may be moving closer to a genuine breaking point. He stresses an important distinction: markets can remain in bubble territory for extended periods, making timing and risk management critical. The conversation turns to the enormous investment and debt financing behind America's AI infrastructure buildout. Schneider argues that debt alone doesn't tell the whole story—the critical question is whether that spending ultimately produces enough earnings and productivity to justify and service it. He identifies weakening forward expectations from leading technology companies as one potential catalyst investors should watch. There are already cracks beneath the headline indexes. Schneider points out that while the S&P 500 and Nasdaq remain market leaders, participation underneath them is weak, saying only about 30% of S&P 500 stocks were above their 50-day moving average at the time of the discussion. If leadership in technology and the Nasdaq begins to fail as well, he says that could become an important warning signal. Also on the radar: the 10-year Treasury near 5%, rapidly rising interest rates, housing pressures and whether AI itself could ultimately generate the productivity gains needed to justify today's enormous investment. Schneider also identifies biotechnology as an area potentially benefiting from the AI revolution, particularly as AI and semiconductor advances accelerate drug discovery, research and analysis. Is this another 1999—or can AI productivity keep the bull market alive? Keith Schneider breaks down the signals that could answer that question. 🔗 Website: https://biztalktodaytv.com 📧 Contact on Email: [email protected] 📢 Disclaimer: The views and opinions expressed on this program are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the official policy or position of CrossCheck Media Inc., Biz Talk Today TV (BTT), or their affiliated entities and distribution partners.

Wall Street Warning: Is a 20% Market Correction Coming? | Mish Schneider
Is Wall Street sitting on the edge of a major correction—or is this another opportunity for investors willing to stay patient? On this episode of Financial Compass, market strategist Mish Schneider, Founder of Money On, joins host Todd M. Schoenberger, CEO of CrossCheck Media Inc., for a wide-ranging look at a market sending increasingly conflicting signals. Oil is surging as supply concerns move to the forefront. Treasury yields remain elevated. Small caps, retail, regional banks and transportation stocks are showing weakness even as the S&P 500 and technology leaders have recently challenged record territory. Mish says the divergence has created a critical moment for investors—and explains why a potential “island top” has her watching closely for the possibility of a much larger market correction. But Mish isn't abandoning the market. She reveals where she is finding opportunities, including natural gas and Kinder Morgan, and explains why she believes natural gas may have established a bottom near $3 with the potential to move toward $4–$5. She also discusses Amazon, Unity, Stratasys, robotics, AI infrastructure and other stocks on her radar. Mish also breaks down her approach to Amazon, including the technical levels she's watching and why she sees approximately $273–$275 as a reasonable upside target if the setup holds. And perhaps the most important lesson isn't a stock pick at all. In a difficult market, Mish argues that investors need to become stock selectors rather than simply buying everything tied to AI. Her advice: be patient, control position sizes and don't turn a winning trade into a losing one. The conversation closes with Bitcoin, where Mish remains constructive on the longer-term picture and discusses buying dips while carefully managing risk. Is Wall Street preparing for its next leg higher—or are the warning signs finally becoming too big to ignore? Watch Financial Compass for Mish Schneider's complete market outlook and the trades she's watching now. 🔗 Website: https://biztalktodaytv.com 📧 Contact on Email: [email protected] 📢 Disclaimer: The views and opinions expressed on this program are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the official policy or position of CrossCheck Media Inc., Biz Talk Today TV (BTT), or their affiliated entities and distribution partners.

Sports Teams Are Worth Billions—So Why Are Fans Paying More? | Damon Amendolara
Sports franchises are worth billions. Media-rights deals continue to soar. Private equity is pouring into professional sports. New stadiums are getting more expensive. So why does being a fan keep costing more? On this episode of Franchise Value, host Shana Orczyk Sissel, CEO and Founder of Banríon Capital Management and author of the soon-to-be-released Tough Minded, sits down with veteran sports broadcaster Damon Amendolara (D.A.), host on NFL Radio on SiriusXM, for a wide-ranging conversation about the extraordinary economics reshaping professional and college sports. The discussion begins in Buffalo, where D.A. gives his firsthand assessment of the new Highmark Stadium and tackles one of the most controversial questions in sports business: Should taxpayers be helping billionaires build stadiums? Despite his opposition to public stadium financing in principle, D.A. explains why he believes keeping the Bills in Western New York fundamentally changes the equation for Buffalo. From there, the conversation gets much bigger. Shana and D.A. examine skyrocketing franchise valuations, the growing influence of private equity, PSLs and rising ticket prices, the explosion in sports media-rights deals and the increasingly fragmented collection of streaming subscriptions fans need just to watch their teams. And then comes an even bigger question: Can the sports media boom continue if the next generation stops watching entire games? D.A. explores whether Gen Z's preference for clips, social media and shorter-form content could eventually challenge the enormous television and streaming deals helping drive franchise valuations higher. The conversation also turns to college sports, NIL, the transfer portal and whether attempts to impose new rules can repair a system D.A. describes as being in an “incredibly broken space.” From billion-dollar franchises and private equity to streaming, stadiums and the future of fandom, this episode asks a simple question at the center of the modern sports economy: Sports has never been worth more—but who ultimately pays for all that value?

Stop Predicting the Market: Keith Schneider Reveals Where the Momentum Is Now
Wall Street is being pulled in nearly every direction. Geopolitical uncertainty, volatile oil prices, an approaching election, AI speculation and rapidly changing economic signals are making traditional market forecasts increasingly difficult. So what should investors do? On this episode of Keith’s Corner, Keith Schneider, CEO and Co-Founder of MarketGauge, joins host Todd M. Schoenberger, CEO of CrossCheck Media Inc., with a simple message: stop trying to predict what should happen and pay attention to what the market is actually doing. Keith explains why MarketGauge's investment philosophy emphasizes momentum, concentration and disciplined risk management. Its models have recently focused on semiconductors, technology and biotech, areas where Keith says momentum continues to persist. But there is a major question hanging over Wall Street: Is the AI boom only beginning—or are investors watching a bubble form? Keith doesn't pretend to know the answer. Instead, he explains why price action, data and risk management matter more than predictions. His rule for traders is particularly important in this environment: if you're going to put on a trade, know where you're wrong. The conversation also turns to oil, where Keith describes the prevailing trend as bullish and one of the market's more powerful trends, while discussing how geopolitical developments could rapidly change that picture. Todd and Keith then go inside the MarketGauge investment approach, discussing the ability of its models to move entirely to cash when trend indicators turn negative, its S&P and Nasdaq-100 models, portfolio rebalancing, and why Keith favors the Sortino ratio as a measure of risk versus reward. They also explain the differences between MarketGauge.com, MarketGauge Pro and MarketGauge Asset Management, including institutional research, signal licensing and portfolio management. Keith reveals that MarketGauge works with both U.S. and international clients and says a large RIA recently requested a five-year agreement for its services. In a market where almost anything can happen, Keith Schneider argues that the edge isn't predicting the future—it's knowing how to react when the market tells you the forecast has changed. 🔗 Website: https://biztalktodaytv.com 📧 Contact on Email: [email protected] 📢 Disclaimer: The views and opinions expressed on this program are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the official policy or position of CrossCheck Media Inc., Biz Talk Today TV (BTT), or their affiliated entities and distribution partners.

Maryland’s Economy, Immigration & Congress: Berney Flowers Makes His Case for District 3
With Election Day approaching, Republican congressional nominee Berney Flowers returns to Campaign Trail: The Road to Congress for a wide-ranging conversation about the issues he is putting at the center of his campaign for Maryland’s 3rd Congressional District. Maryland election records show Flowers won the Republican primary with 48.92% of the vote and will face Democratic incumbent Sarah Elfreth in November. Host Todd M. Schoenberger begins with Maryland’s economy and the debate over job creation under Gov. Wes Moore. Flowers questions whether the jobs being created provide wages capable of supporting Maryland families and discusses how economic conditions are affecting voters. The latest available state data estimate that Maryland added 20,100 jobs during the first eight months of 2026, while the unemployment rate stood at 4.1% in August. The episode itself includes a sharper debate over Moore’s job-creation claims and revisions to employment data. The conversation then turns to immigration and national security, with Flowers explaining his support for legal immigration alongside stronger vetting and enforcement. Drawing on his national-security background, he discusses how he views the connection between border and immigration policy and protecting the country. Flowers also lays out his position on members of Congress trading stocks, arguing that lawmakers should not be able to profit from information or policy decisions unavailable to ordinary investors. One clarification is important: during the interview, Elfreth is described as voting against the Stop Insider Trading Act. The House Clerk's July 22 roll call instead records Elfreth voting “yea” on the Democratic motion to recommit H.R. 7008, while Republicans voted against that procedural motion; the transcript's characterization therefore should not be presented as an established voting fact without additional context about the underlying legislation and procedural votes. Finally, Flowers discusses his campaign's final stretch and his effort to meet District 3 voters face-to-face as the November election approaches.

The Economy Is Slowing—But AI Is Booming: What Wall Street Does Next
The jobs report came in surprisingly soft. Bond yields moved lower. Stocks responded positively. But underneath the market rally, is the American economy beginning to split into two very different worlds? On this episode of Wayve Wire, host Todd M. Schoenberger, CEO of CrossCheck Media Inc., sits down with Joe Besecker, CEO of Wayve Capital, and Rhys Williams, CIO of Wayve Capital, for a wide-ranging discussion about the jobs market, interest rates, artificial intelligence and where investors should be looking next. Besecker argues that the weak employment report could take pressure off the Federal Reserve while warning that AI is changing what Americans once considered secure white-collar jobs. Williams goes further, arguing that outside the extraordinary data-center capital-spending boom, significant portions of the economy could slow as high borrowing costs work their way through housing, commercial real estate and credit markets. Wayve Wire - October 2nd Episod… But there's an important disagreement. Besecker isn't convinced the broader economy is deteriorating. He points to well-paying skilled-trade jobs connected to the infrastructure boom and continued demand for workers in areas such as healthcare. Williams counters that those gains may not be large enough to offset pressure on other workers and argues America needs to reconsider which occupations will become the upper-middle-class jobs of the future. And Williams remains notably confident about AI infrastructure. He says newly opened data-center capacity is being absorbed rapidly and argues that demand for older generations of Nvidia chips challenges the idea that today's hardware immediately becomes obsolete when newer chips arrive. The conversation then moves across Wall Street: oil and geopolitical risk, gold versus crypto, commercial-real-estate refinancing, banks, travel and leisure, life sciences, AI infrastructure—and whether beaten-down consumer brands such as Nike can ever regain their former dominance. If AI continues booming while the rest of the economy loses momentum, investors may be confronting something much bigger than another sector rotation: Are we entering an economy increasingly divided between businesses connected to AI—and everybody else? 🔗 Website: https://biztalktodaytv.com 📧 Contact on Email: [email protected] 📢 Disclaimer: The views and opinions expressed on this program are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the official policy or position of CrossCheck Media Inc., Biz Talk Today TV (BTT), or their affiliated entities and distribution partners.

AI Is Killing the Org Chart: Luke Girgis on Why Companies Won’t Need as Many Workers
What happens when a company can grow revenue without growing payroll? On this episode of The Money Path, host Todd M. Schoenberger, CEO of CrossCheck Media Inc., sits down with former CEO and bestselling author Luke Girgis, author of Death to the Org Chart, for a provocative conversation about artificial intelligence, corporate productivity and what could happen to jobs as companies learn to accomplish more with dramatically smaller teams. Girgis argues that the old relationship between growth and hiring is already breaking down. He says executives once viewed adding employees as evidence of success. Today, he increasingly views a rapidly expanding org chart with “extreme suspicion.” Drawing on his experience running businesses, Girgis says many companies aren't truly scaling when they add employees alongside revenue—they are simply “buying revenue with labor.” And he has a striking real-world example. Girgis describes an operation he led as interim CEO that went from 30 employees and a $400,000 annual loss to three employees, break-even and moving toward profitability. He says the business simultaneously improved customer service, product quality, delivery times, conversion rates and email engagement. But the implications for workers could be enormous. Girgis says the hardest part may be entry-level employment. As AI automates more routine execution work, he says he increasingly wants experienced people capable of making decisions rather than employees performing lower-level busywork. His advice to young people is provocative: build something. Learn to make decisions, develop judgment and acquire what he calls “taste.” That leads directly to the argument behind Death to the Org Chart. Girgis believes companies should stop organizing themselves around positions that need to be filled and instead map the workflows that need to be completed, using people, AI agents and technology around those workflows. He predicts that within a decade, the traditional org chart could look like an “ancient artifact of dying businesses.” And the remaining human talent could become extraordinarily valuable. Girgis argues that as execution becomes cheaper, employees with exceptional judgment and taste could command substantially greater compensation because AI allows a small number of talented people to produce the output once requiring much larger teams. Yet Girgis ends with a surprising prediction: AI may initially cause companies to contract, but highly productive businesses could eventually start hiring again—this time without the organizational waste. If AI can turn a 30-person operation into a three-person operation, what happens next to corporate America—and which workers become more valuable than ever? 🔗 Website: https://biztalktodaytv.com 📧 Contact on Email: [email protected] 📢 Disclaimer: The views and opinions expressed on this program are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the official policy or position of CrossCheck Media Inc., Biz Talk Today TV (BTT), or their affiliated entities and distribution partners.

Stop Predicting the Market: Keith Schneider Reveals Where the Momentum Is Now
Wall Street is being pulled in nearly every direction. Geopolitical uncertainty, volatile oil prices, an approaching election, AI speculation and rapidly changing economic signals are making traditional market forecasts increasingly difficult. So what should investors do? On this episode of Keith’s Corner, Keith Schneider, CEO and Co-Founder of MarketGauge, joins host Todd M. Schoenberger, CEO of CrossCheck Media Inc., with a simple message: stop trying to predict what should happen and pay attention to what the market is actually doing. Keith explains why MarketGauge's investment philosophy emphasizes momentum, concentration and disciplined risk management. Its models have recently focused on semiconductors, technology and biotech, areas where Keith says momentum continues to persist. But there is a major question hanging over Wall Street: Is the AI boom only beginning—or are investors watching a bubble form? Keith doesn't pretend to know the answer. Instead, he explains why price action, data and risk management matter more than predictions. His rule for traders is particularly important in this environment: if you're going to put on a trade, know where you're wrong. The conversation also turns to oil, where Keith describes the prevailing trend as bullish and one of the market's more powerful trends, while discussing how geopolitical developments could rapidly change that picture. Todd and Keith then go inside the MarketGauge investment approach, discussing the ability of its models to move entirely to cash when trend indicators turn negative, its S&P and Nasdaq-100 models, portfolio rebalancing, and why Keith favors the Sortino ratio as a measure of risk versus reward. They also explain the differences between MarketGauge.com, MarketGauge Pro and MarketGauge Asset Management, including institutional research, signal licensing and portfolio management. Keith reveals that MarketGauge works with both U.S. and international clients and says a large RIA recently requested a five-year agreement for its services. In a market where almost anything can happen, Keith Schneider argues that the edge isn't predicting the future—it's knowing how to react when the market tells you the forecast has changed. 🔗 Website: https://biztalktodaytv.com 📧 Contact on Email: [email protected] 📢 Disclaimer: The views and opinions expressed on this program are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the official policy or position of CrossCheck Media Inc., Biz Talk Today TV (BTT), or their affiliated entities and distribution partners.

Something Always Breaks: 5% Yields, AI Billions & Wall Street’s Next Big Risk | Wayve Wire
Wall Street may be climbing, but underneath the rally, interest rates, AI spending, consumer stress and enormous capital expenditures are creating one of the most unusual investment environments in years. On this episode of Wayve Wire, host Todd M. Schoenberger is joined by Wayve Capital CEO Joe Besecker and CIO Rhys Williams for a wide-ranging discussion about where the economy and financial markets could go next. Besecker zeroes in on one of his biggest concerns: the rapid rise in Treasury yields. He argues that history shows sharp moves in the 10-year yield have often preceded periods of financial stress, from previous market disruptions to the 2023 regional-bank turmoil. His concern isn't necessarily that another crisis is inevitable—but that higher rates are increasing pressure throughout the financial system. For households and small businesses, the consequences are already much more tangible. Besecker points to housing, construction and borrowing costs as areas feeling the pressure, while noting that massive AI infrastructure projects may be far less sensitive to incremental changes in interest rates. Williams sees an American economy increasingly divided between those benefiting from asset appreciation and those struggling with higher everyday costs. He argues that the upper portion of consumers remains in relatively strong shape, while the bottom half faces much greater pressure. More importantly, Williams believes the current expansion is unusual because it is increasingly capital-spending driven rather than consumer driven. Then comes the biggest Wall Street question: Can the AI investment boom survive higher rates? Williams argues that AI infrastructure spending can continue because the economics are ultimately about the returns companies can generate from scarce computing capacity. He points to strong demand even for older generations of Nvidia chips as evidence of a compute-constrained environment and says companies are likely to keep “feeding the beast” as long as those economics persist. The conversation also examines the U.S.-China relationship, critical minerals and America's dependence on global supply chains. Besecker argues that the United States needs a better balance between global sourcing and domestic production, while Williams notes that developing new domestic mineral capacity can take years—meaning the relationship with China remains economically important in the meantime. Are 5% yields the market's next breaking point—or can the AI capital-spending boom overpower the pressure coming from higher rates? Besecker and Williams break down the risks, opportunities and signals investors should be watching now. 🔗 Website: https://biztalktodaytv.com 📧 Contact on Email: [email protected] 📢 Disclaimer: The views and opinions expressed on this program are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the official policy or position of CrossCheck Media Inc., Biz Talk Today TV (BTT), or their affiliated entities and distribution partners.

Lions-Panthers: Jo Madden Says Skip the Spread—Bet Detroit’s Offense Instead
The Detroit Lions are laying 3.5 points at Carolina, but Jo Madden isn't interested in forcing a bet on the spread. Her attention is on Detroit's offense—and the prop market surrounding Jahmyr Gibbs. In this Madden On The Line short, Jo Madden, Vice President of Sports Gaming Media at CrossCheck Media Inc., explains why she prefers the Lions team total over rather than relying on Carolina to help push the full-game total over 50.5. Then comes the bigger question: Has the market already priced the value out of Jahmyr Gibbs? Jo likes his rushing-and-receiving potential, but with his combined yardage prop already at 135.5 and his anytime-touchdown price heavily juiced, bettors may be paying a premium for Detroit's explosive playmaker. Jo also breaks down Jared Goff, Amon-Ra St. Brown, Sam LaPorta, Bryce Young and Detroit's pass rush—including why pressure from Aidan Hutchinson could create an intriguing rushing opportunity for Young. The lesson: You don't have to bet the spread just because Detroit is the better team. Sometimes the better wager is hiding somewhere else on the board. Betting lines can change.

Why Is 0-3 Houston Favored? Jo Madden Breaks Down the Cowboys-Texans Trap Line
Houston is 0-3. Dallas is 1-2. Yet the Texans are favored by three points. That’s exactly the kind of NFL betting line that gets Jo Madden’s attention. In this Madden On The Line short, Jo Madden, Vice President of Sports Gaming Media at CrossCheck Media Inc., examines why sportsbooks are comfortable making winless Houston the favorite—and why bettors should look beyond the records before automatically taking Dallas. Houston has recovered from an 0-3 start before, but Jo cautions that history isn’t a handicap. The bigger questions are happening right now: Will Nico Collins be available? Can Houston’s defense pressure Dak Prescott behind a Dallas offensive line that has protected him well? And can the Texans score enough to keep pace if the Cowboys start putting points on the board? For Jo, this isn't a game to rush into. The line is telling bettors something—and the Nico Collins situation could determine whether Houston -3 makes sense. Betting lines and player availability can change.

The Bears Looked Great on TV—Jo Madden Says Don’t Pay the Tax | Madden On The Line
The Chicago Bears just dominated on national television—and Jo Madden says that may be exactly why bettors should be careful. After Chicago's convincing Monday night performance, the Bears are laying 3.5 points at home against the Jets. But on Madden On The Line, Jo Madden, Vice President of Sports Gaming Media at CrossCheck Media Inc., explains one of her favorite NFL betting concepts: the “national TV game tax.” When millions of bettors watch a team look dominant in prime time, that performance can influence how the public approaches the next game. Jo isn't interested in laying more than a field goal with Chicago while questions remain at quarterback. If forced to choose a side at the numbers discussed during the show, Jo would rather take the Jets +3.5. But her preferred play is elsewhere: Under 42.5, with Jo expecting a defensive battle. The lesson: Don't automatically bet what you just watched. Bet the number in front of you. Betting lines can change.

Patriots +6.5? Jo Madden Says Don’t Fall for the Bills Trap | Madden On The Line
The Buffalo Bills look like the obvious side against the New England Patriots—and that's exactly what has Jo Madden looking the other way. Buffalo enters the AFC East rivalry as a 6.5-point favorite, while New England is coming off an ugly 35-6 loss. On paper, laying the points with Buffalo may seem easy. But on this Madden On The Line short, Jo Madden, Vice President of Sports Gaming Media at CrossCheck Media Inc., explains why she's willing to make the uncomfortable bet and take New England +6.5. As Jo puts it: “It feels ugly. It feels gross. It feels wrong.” But divisional rivalries can be difficult to price, and she doesn't believe Buffalo covering is nearly as automatic as it looks. Jo also breaks down another way to approach the matchup. If you're bullish on Buffalo, she says the Bills team total over 28.5 may be more attractive than laying the spread. Sometimes the bet that feels the worst is the number worth examining the closest. Betting lines can change.

Cardinals Went From Underdog to Favorite—Jo Madden Says Don’t Chase the Line
The Arizona Cardinals went from underdog to favorite against the New York Giants—and Jo Madden says that completely changes the bet. In this Madden On The Line short, Jo Madden, Vice President of Sports Gaming Media at CrossCheck Media Inc., breaks down why Arizona moving to a 2.5-point favorite after scoring 30 points against San Francisco doesn't mean bettors should jump aboard. Her rule: “Don't fall in love with a team after the number disappears.” Anyone who grabbed Arizona plus the points earlier captured valuable closing-line value (CLV). But laying -2.5 now is an entirely different proposition, and Jo says she's passing at that price rather than chasing the market. If you still like Arizona, Jo identifies another strategy: wait for a live-betting opportunity. If the Giants score first and the market moves, there could be a more attractive entry point on the Cardinals. She also identifies rushing and receiving props for the running backs as markets worth watching. Same team. Different number. Completely different bet. Betting lines can change.

Colts-Commanders Line Flips in London: Jo Madden Says the Hook Matters | Madden On The Line
The betting market has made a major move on Colts-Commanders in London. Washington opened as the favorite. Now Indianapolis is laying 3.5 points—meaning the line crossed zero and, more importantly, moved through the key number of three. On this Madden On The Line short, Jo Madden, Vice President of Sports Gaming Media at CrossCheck Media Inc., explains why that movement matters and why bettors shouldn't blindly rely on familiar theories such as “London games always go under” or “always take the underdog overseas.” Instead, Jo focuses on the numbers. At Washington +3.5, she sees the extra half-point—the “hook”—as meaningful. If the line falls back to +3, she says she wouldn't touch it. She also examines alternative markets, including the first-half under and team totals, rather than forcing a bet on the full-game spread. The records may say Colts 1-2 and Commanders 1-2, but the betting line is telling a much more interesting story. Betting lines can change.

NFL Week 4: The Betting Lines Vegas Wants You to Chase | Madden On The Line
Three weeks of NFL football have given bettors just enough information to think they know which teams are good, which teams are finished and which favorites they can trust. Jo Madden says that's exactly where the danger begins. On this episode of Madden On The Line, Jo Madden, Vice President of Sports Gaming Media at CrossCheck Media Inc., breaks down the NFL Week 4 board and explains why this week is becoming a battle between desperation and inflated betting lines. Five teams enter the week undefeated while five others are staring at 0-3 records—and history makes the stakes particularly severe for the winless clubs. Jo points out that only seven teams have reached the playoffs after starting 0-3, while only one has recovered from 0-4 to make the postseason. Jo starts with Steelers-Browns, where injuries along Cleveland's offensive line have her looking toward Pittsburgh and the possibility of T.J. Watt creating serious problems for the Browns' offense. She also examines Aaron Rodgers and several alternative markets rather than simply playing the game total. Then there's one of the strangest moves on the Week 4 board: Colts-Commanders in London. Washington opened as the favorite before the market flipped dramatically and Indianapolis moved through the key number of three. Jo explains why that movement matters—and why blindly following supposed trends about international games can be a mistake. The episode also tackles Patriots-Bills, Jets-Bears, Cowboys-Texans, Packers-Buccaneers, Jaguars-Bengals, Rams-Eagles, Titans-Ravens, Dolphins-Vikings and Chiefs-Raiders, with Jo continually returning to one principle: don't confuse picking the better football team with finding the better bet. That becomes particularly important when the public starts chasing what it just watched. After Chicago's nationally televised win, for example, Jo warns about what she calls the “national televised TV game tax”—when bettors rush to back the team that impressed them most recently and potentially pay an inflated price. And when double-digit favorites such as Baltimore and Minnesota appear on the board, Jo looks beyond the spread toward first-half lines, team totals, props and potential live-betting opportunities instead. Which NFL Week 4 lines are worth betting—and which ones should you simply walk away from?

Before You Make a Big Charitable Donation, Watch This
Donating a car, boat, valuable artwork or appreciated stock to charity can sound straightforward. The tax consequences may be anything but. On this episode of The Money Path, host Todd M. Schoenberger, CEO of CrossCheck Media Inc., sits down with Colleen Spain, Counsel at Farrell Fritz P.C., to explain what donors—and charities—should understand before transferring a high-value non-cash asset. Spain explains why the IRS has increased scrutiny of non-cash charitable contributions, when an appraisal becomes important, what documentation donors need, and why what a charity ultimately does with an asset can dramatically affect the donor's deduction. One of the episode's biggest surprises involves vehicles. Spain explains that when a charity quickly sells a donated vehicle, the donor's deduction can generally be limited by the sale proceeds. But when the organization makes qualifying use of the vehicle in furtherance of its charitable mission, different valuation rules can apply. The conversation also turns to appreciated securities. Spain discusses why donating stock directly can be attractive to both sides: the donor may avoid realizing the capital gain while the charitable organization can convert the securities to cash. With year-end planning approaching, Spain's message is simple: plan early, work with trusted advisers and document everything. If the IRS eventually questions the valuation, the appraisal and supporting records can become critical. When does generosity become a tax headache? And how can donors structure high-value gifts correctly before it's too late?

AI Is Killing the Org Chart: Luke Girgis on Why Companies Won’t Need as Many Workers | The Money Path
What happens when a company can grow revenue without growing payroll? On this episode of The Money Path, host Todd M. Schoenberger, CEO of CrossCheck Media Inc., sits down with former CEO and bestselling author Luke Girgis, author of Death to the Org Chart, for a provocative conversation about artificial intelligence, corporate productivity and what could happen to jobs as companies learn to accomplish more with dramatically smaller teams. Girgis argues that the old relationship between growth and hiring is already breaking down. He says executives once viewed adding employees as evidence of success. Today, he increasingly views a rapidly expanding org chart with “extreme suspicion.” Drawing on his experience running businesses, Girgis says many companies aren't truly scaling when they add employees alongside revenue—they are simply “buying revenue with labor.” And he has a striking real-world example. Girgis describes an operation he led as interim CEO that went from 30 employees and a $400,000 annual loss to three employees, break-even and moving toward profitability. He says the business simultaneously improved customer service, product quality, delivery times, conversion rates and email engagement. But the implications for workers could be enormous. Girgis says the hardest part may be entry-level employment. As AI automates more routine execution work, he says he increasingly wants experienced people capable of making decisions rather than employees performing lower-level busywork. His advice to young people is provocative: build something. Learn to make decisions, develop judgment and acquire what he calls “taste.” That leads directly to the argument behind Death to the Org Chart. Girgis believes companies should stop organizing themselves around positions that need to be filled and instead map the workflows that need to be completed, using people, AI agents and technology around those workflows. He predicts that within a decade, the traditional org chart could look like an “ancient artifact of dying businesses.” And the remaining human talent could become extraordinarily valuable. Girgis argues that as execution becomes cheaper, employees with exceptional judgment and taste could command substantially greater compensation because AI allows a small number of talented people to produce the output once requiring much larger teams. Yet Girgis ends with a surprising prediction: AI may initially cause companies to contract, but highly productive businesses could eventually start hiring again—this time without the organizational waste. If AI can turn a 30-person operation into a three-person operation, what happens next to corporate America—and which workers become more valuable than ever? 🔗 Website: https://biztalktodaytv.com 📧 Contact on Email: [email protected] 📢 Disclaimer: The views and opinions expressed on this program are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the official policy or position of CrossCheck Media Inc., Biz Talk Today TV (BTT), or their affiliated entities and distribution partners.

The Economy Is Slowing—But AI Is Booming: What Wall Street Does Next
The jobs report came in surprisingly soft. Bond yields moved lower. Stocks responded positively. But underneath the market rally, is the American economy beginning to split into two very different worlds? On this episode of Wayve Wire, host Todd M. Schoenberger, CEO of CrossCheck Media Inc., sits down with Joe Besecker, CEO of Wayve Capital, and Rhys Williams, CIO of Wayve Capital, for a wide-ranging discussion about the jobs market, interest rates, artificial intelligence and where investors should be looking next. Besecker argues that the weak employment report could take pressure off the Federal Reserve while warning that AI is changing what Americans once considered secure white-collar jobs. Williams goes further, arguing that outside the extraordinary data-center capital-spending boom, significant portions of the economy could slow as high borrowing costs work their way through housing, commercial real estate and credit markets. Wayve Wire - October 2nd Episod… But there's an important disagreement. Besecker isn't convinced the broader economy is deteriorating. He points to well-paying skilled-trade jobs connected to the infrastructure boom and continued demand for workers in areas such as healthcare. Williams counters that those gains may not be large enough to offset pressure on other workers and argues America needs to reconsider which occupations will become the upper-middle-class jobs of the future. And Williams remains notably confident about AI infrastructure. He says newly opened data-center capacity is being absorbed rapidly and argues that demand for older generations of Nvidia chips challenges the idea that today's hardware immediately becomes obsolete when newer chips arrive. The conversation then moves across Wall Street: oil and geopolitical risk, gold versus crypto, commercial-real-estate refinancing, banks, travel and leisure, life sciences, AI infrastructure—and whether beaten-down consumer brands such as Nike can ever regain their former dominance. If AI continues booming while the rest of the economy loses momentum, investors may be confronting something much bigger than another sector rotation: Are we entering an economy increasingly divided between businesses connected to AI—and everybody else? 🔗 Website: https://biztalktodaytv.com 📧 Contact on Email: [email protected] 📢 Disclaimer: The views and opinions expressed on this program are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the official policy or position of CrossCheck Media Inc., Biz Talk Today TV (BTT), or their affiliated entities and distribution partners.

Cannabis Goes Corporate: The $100 Billion Market Wall Street Can’t Ignore | The Money Path
Cannabis is moving deeper into the mainstream American economy—but Wall Street may still misunderstand how this industry actually works. On this episode of The Money Path, host Todd M. Schoenberger sits down with Greg Chin, Partner at EisnerAmper and Lead of the firm’s Cannabis Industry Team, for a deep dive into the business, investment and transaction landscape surrounding one of America's most unusual emerging industries. Chin brings significant firsthand deal experience to the conversation, saying he has worked on more than 100 cannabis transactions. Chin estimates the broader cannabis market at roughly $100 billion and explains why investors need to look beyond the industry as a single trade. State-by-state regulation, access to capital, management quality, location, taxation and the divide between regulated and unregulated operators can produce dramatically different economics from one company to another. The conversation also explores one of the industry's biggest potential catalysts: federal cannabis reform and the tax consequences surrounding Section 280E. Chin explains why changes to federal treatment could materially alter the economics of cannabis businesses—and why uncertainty surrounding adult-use cannabis remains an important issue for operators and investors. Todd and Greg also examine M&A, public companies, dispensary economics and the next stage of industry consolidation. Chin discusses the acquisition wave that previously swept through cannabis as companies attempted to establish multistate footprints and national brands, while explaining why dealmaking continues even though activity has cooled from its earlier peak. And what actually makes a cannabis retailer successful? Chin says many are profitable and cites gross margins around 50% at the retail level, while emphasizing capitalization, management, location and product quality. He also identifies gummies and beverages as fast-growing categories alongside traditional flower and pre-roll products. If cannabis continues its transition from a fragmented, heavily regulated market into a mainstream American consumer industry, where could the biggest opportunities emerge—and what separates the potential winners from everyone else? 🔗 Website: https://biztalktodaytv.com 📧 Contact on Email: [email protected] 📲 Download the Biz Talk Today TV app on Apple & Android devices. 📢 Disclaimer: The views and opinions expressed on this program are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the official policy or position of CrossCheck Media Inc., Biz Talk Today TV (BTT), or their affiliated entities and distribution partners.

Maryland’s Economy, Immigration & Congress: Berney Flowers Makes His Case for District 3 | Campaign Trail
With Election Day approaching, Republican congressional nominee Berney Flowers returns to Campaign Trail: The Road to Congress for a wide-ranging conversation about the issues he is putting at the center of his campaign for Maryland’s 3rd Congressional District. Maryland election records show Flowers won the Republican primary with 48.92% of the vote and will face Democratic incumbent Sarah Elfreth in November. Host Todd M. Schoenberger begins with Maryland’s economy and the debate over job creation under Gov. Wes Moore. Flowers questions whether the jobs being created provide wages capable of supporting Maryland families and discusses how economic conditions are affecting voters. The latest available state data estimate that Maryland added 20,100 jobs during the first eight months of 2026, while the unemployment rate stood at 4.1% in August. The episode itself includes a sharper debate over Moore’s job-creation claims and revisions to employment data. The conversation then turns to immigration and national security, with Flowers explaining his support for legal immigration alongside stronger vetting and enforcement. Drawing on his national-security background, he discusses how he views the connection between border and immigration policy and protecting the country. Flowers also lays out his position on members of Congress trading stocks, arguing that lawmakers should not be able to profit from information or policy decisions unavailable to ordinary investors. One clarification is important: during the interview, Elfreth is described as voting against the Stop Insider Trading Act. The House Clerk's July 22 roll call instead records Elfreth voting “yea” on the Democratic motion to recommit H.R. 7008, while Republicans voted against that procedural motion; the transcript's characterization therefore should not be presented as an established voting fact without additional context about the underlying legislation and procedural votes. Finally, Flowers discusses his campaign's final stretch and his effort to meet District 3 voters face-to-face as the November election approaches.

NFL Week 4: The Betting Lines Vegas Wants You to Chase | Madden On The Line
Three weeks of NFL football have given bettors just enough information to think they know which teams are good, which teams are finished and which favorites they can trust. Jo Madden says that's exactly where the danger begins. On this episode of Madden On The Line, Jo Madden, Vice President of Sports Gaming Media at CrossCheck Media Inc., breaks down the NFL Week 4 board and explains why this week is becoming a battle between desperation and inflated betting lines.

5% Yields, $100 Oil & Peak Earnings? Victoria Fernandez on What Wall Street Is Missing | The Money Path
Treasury yields are above 5%. Oil is back around $100. The Federal Reserve is talking tough. And Wall Street is beginning to ask whether extraordinary earnings growth can continue. But is the market becoming too pessimistic? On this episode of The Money Path, host Todd M. Schoenberger, CEO of CrossCheck Media Inc., welcomes back Victoria Fernandez, Chief Market Strategist at Crossmark Global Investments in Houston, for a wide-ranging conversation about the signals investors should be watching now. Victoria begins with the labor market, arguing that the latest JOLTS data still point to a relatively stable environment: job openings declined, but layoffs and quits haven't deteriorated materially. The bigger question may be what happens next as companies confront rising input costs and potentially tighter profit margins. Victoria says margins will be particularly important during the coming earnings season, especially if companies eventually respond to pressure by reducing headcount. Then comes the Fed. With markets pricing additional rate increases, Victoria questions whether investors have gone too far. She sees the possibility of another hike but argues that the market's expectation for four hikes may be excessive, suggesting two or three could ultimately prove closer to the mark. And when it comes to the 10-year Treasury above 5%, Victoria sees opportunity. Crossmark has been buying bonds for some clients, taking profits from equity-market winners and locking in attractive fixed-income yields for longer-term investors. Todd and Victoria also tackle $100 oil, the pressure higher energy costs could eventually put on consumers and corporate margins, and why persistent energy inflation could make the Fed's job considerably more difficult. Victoria's distinction is critical: temporary oil spikes may be manageable, but oil remaining above $100 for an extended period could begin to bite. But perhaps the biggest question is earnings. Victoria notes that recent quarterly earnings growth has exceeded 20% and says expectations are around 28% for the third quarter. The risk is what happens if earnings, margins and economic growth are approaching peak levels. If investors expect 25%–28% earnings growth and receive something below 20%, she believes the market could respond negatively. The conversation also turns to AI spending and the enormous amount of debt being issued by technology companies. Victoria isn't sounding the alarm yet: she says technology credit spreads have actually tightened in some cases and credit markets aren't currently signaling a crisis. But she makes an important point—credit is often where investors first see evidence that the Fed has gone too far. And her closing message may be the most important: investors focused on 5% Treasury yields and additional Fed hikes could be overlooking a resilient consumer, relatively benign credit conditions, a stable labor market, increased business applications and potentially improving productivity. Is Wall Street correctly pricing the risks—or getting ahead of itself again? 🔗 Website: https://biztalktodaytv.com 📧 Contact on Email: [email protected] 📢 Disclaimer: The views and opinions expressed on this program are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the official policy or position of CrossCheck Media Inc., Biz Talk Today TV (BTT), or their affiliated entities and distribution partners.

Mish Schneider: Cash Is King as 5% Yields Flash a Warning for Wall Street | Financial Compass
Is Wall Street entering the most dangerous stretch of the year—or setting up for a major fourth-quarter rebound? On this episode of Financial Compass, Mish Schneider, Founder of the Economic Modern Family, joins host Todd M. Schoenberger, CEO of CrossCheck Media Inc., to break down a market confronting rising Treasury yields, weakness in junk bonds, pressure on the consumer and growing uncertainty heading into October. Mish explains why the deterioration in high-yield bonds has caught her attention, what the 50-day moving average is telling her, and why investors shouldn't underestimate the message coming from retail, transportation and regional banks. She also explains why earning more than 5% in cash changes the risk/reward calculation for traders. The conversation also turns to gold, silver, oil, sugar and inflation, whether bonds could finally be approaching a turning point, and why Mish believes the market's reaction to the upcoming jobs report may matter more than the headline number itself. Plus, Mish shares a major update on the Economic Modern Family and its evolution into a broader financial and trading literacy project. Are investors about to get the October rally they're hoping for—or are the bond market's warning signs pointing to something much bigger?

Wall Street Is Taking Over Sports: Private Equity, $3 Billion Teams & the New Sports Trade | Franchise Value
Wall Street isn't just investing in sports anymore. It's beginning to reshape how sports are owned, financed—and even traded. On this episode of Franchise Value, Shana Orczyk Sissel, CEO and Founder of Banríon Capital Management and author of Tough Minded, joins co-host Todd M. Schoenberger, CEO of CrossCheck Media Inc., to follow the money behind one of the biggest transformations taking place across the sports business. The conversation begins with the Protect College Sports Act, which passed the Senate 77–22 and now moves to the House. Senate Commerce Committee Sissel argues the implications extend well beyond NIL. She focuses on pooled media rights and a structure she believes could make college-sports media economics increasingly accessible to institutional and private capital. Franchise Value - September 30t… Then the conversation moves to private equity and professional sports. Sissel examines reports of MLB's increased private-equity ownership limits, the structure and competing valuation estimates surrounding the Yankees-Apollo transaction, and what greater access to private capital could mean for owners during future labor negotiations. In the episode, she argues that additional liquidity could materially change the financial dynamics between owners and players during a potential lockout. Franchise Value - September 30t… And then there's the New York Islanders. Sissel explores why a minority investment can imply a roughly $3 billion valuation—and why investors aren't simply buying exposure to wins and losses, but potentially to the broader economics surrounding franchises, venues, media rights and scarcity. Franchise Value - September 30t… But perhaps the most fascinating development is happening in the financial markets themselves. CME's new FutureSports Performance Index futures now allow market participants to gain exposure to the performance of all 32 NHL teams through regulated futures contracts. CME Group Sissel digs into the structure and raises concerns about how proposed ETF products tied to sports-performance futures could work for retail investors—including contract resets, fees, offseason exposure and the absence of traditional long-term compounding. Franchise Value - September 30t… From college football to the Yankees to the Islanders to your brokerage account, sports and Wall Street are colliding like never before. The question is no longer simply: What is your favorite team worth? It's becoming: Who owns the economics—and can you trade them? 🔗 Website: https://biztalktodaytv.com 📧 Contact on Email: [email protected] 📢 Disclaimer: The views and opinions expressed on this program are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the official policy or position of CrossCheck Media Inc., Biz Talk Today TV (BTT), or their affiliated entities and distribution partners.

AI Startup or Just a PowerPoint? What Venture Capitalists Actually Look For
What separates the next great AI company from another impressive-looking pitch deck? Zenetta Burger, Partner and Head of U.S. Investments at Giant Ventures, joins Todd M. Schoenberger, CEO of CrossCheck Media Inc., on The Money Path and reveals what she looks for when an AI founder walks through the door. For Burger, it starts with something much bigger than today's technology trends. Giant Ventures is thinking 10, 20 and even 100 years into the future—and looking for founders with bold ideas capable of defining what comes next. She explains why market size, technical expertise, founder-market fit and a genuine competitive edge matter—and why sometimes the most compelling entrepreneur is the outsider who sees an industry completely differently. And then comes the bigger idea: How should investors think about a post-AGI world? This clip offers a rare look inside the venture-capital decision-making process—and what separates an ambitious AI pitch from a company investors may actually want to fund. 🔗 Website: https://biztalktodaytv.com 📧 Contact on Email: [email protected] 📢 Disclaimer: The views and opinions expressed on this program are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the official policy or position of CrossCheck Media Inc., Biz Talk Today TV (BTT), or their affiliated entities and distribution partners.

From the Pentagon to Congress: Berney Flowers on Security, the Border & Maryland’s District 3
From the Pentagon and national-security world to the campaign trail in Maryland, Berney Flowers says his experience inside government is a major reason he decided to run for Congress. On this episode of Campaign Trail: The Road to Congress, host Todd M. Schoenberger, CEO of CrossCheck Media Inc., sits down with Berney Flowers, the Republican nominee for Maryland's 3rd Congressional District. Maryland's official primary results show Flowers won a four-candidate Republican contest with 48.92% of the vote, and he now faces Democratic nominee Sarah Elfreth in the general election. The conversation begins with Flowers' background. Schoenberger discusses Flowers' experience at the Pentagon, his work involving Cyber Command and NORAD, and asks why someone with that résumé would leave the sidelines and enter congressional politics. Flowers says his experiences inside government gave him a different perspective on the country's direction and motivated his decision to run. The discussion then turns to immigration and border security. Flowers describes concerns about the vetting of people admitted to the United States and argues for stronger background checks while distinguishing illegal entry from immigration through legal channels. Those are Flowers' stated positions in the interview, not independently established findings by the program. Flowers also discusses his approach to campaigning in Maryland, telling Todd that he is "not your daddy's Republican" and describing his appearance at WCBM's Freedom Fest. Later, he talks about meeting voters at the Anne Arundel County Fair and explains how his experience in immigration, cybersecurity and military affairs has led to appearances as a television commentator. It's a wide-ranging conversation about national security, immigration, Maryland politics and the experiences Flowers says he would bring to Congress as voters prepare to choose their next representative from Maryland's 3rd District. 🔗 Website: https://biztalktodaytv.com 📧 Contact on Email: [email protected] 📢 Disclaimer: The views and opinions expressed on this program are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the official policy or position of CrossCheck Media Inc., Biz Talk Today TV (BTT), or their affiliated entities and distribution partners.

5% Yields, $100 Oil & Peak Earnings? Victoria Fernandez on What Wall Street Is Missing | The Money Path
Treasury yields are above 5%. Oil is back around $100. The Federal Reserve is talking tough. And Wall Street is beginning to ask whether extraordinary earnings growth can continue. But is the market becoming too pessimistic? On this episode of The Money Path, host Todd M. Schoenberger, CEO of CrossCheck Media Inc., welcomes back Victoria Fernandez, Chief Market Strategist at Crossmark Global Investments in Houston, for a wide-ranging conversation about the signals investors should be watching now. The Money Path featuring Victor… Victoria begins with the labor market, arguing that the latest JOLTS data still point to a relatively stable environment: job openings declined, but layoffs and quits haven't deteriorated materially. The bigger question may be what happens next as companies confront rising input costs and potentially tighter profit margins. Victoria says margins will be particularly important during the coming earnings season, especially if companies eventually respond to pressure by reducing headcount. The Money Path featuring Victor… Then comes the Fed. With markets pricing additional rate increases, Victoria questions whether investors have gone too far. She sees the possibility of another hike but argues that the market's expectation for four hikes may be excessive, suggesting two or three could ultimately prove closer to the mark. The Money Path featuring Victor… And when it comes to the 10-year Treasury above 5%, Victoria sees opportunity. Crossmark has been buying bonds for some clients, taking profits from equity-market winners and locking in attractive fixed-income yields for longer-term investors. The Money Path featuring Victor… Todd and Victoria also tackle $100 oil, the pressure higher energy costs could eventually put on consumers and corporate margins, and why persistent energy inflation could make the Fed's job considerably more difficult. Victoria's distinction is critical: temporary oil spikes may be manageable, but oil remaining above $100 for an extended period could begin to bite. The Money Path featuring Victor… But perhaps the biggest question is earnings. Victoria notes that recent quarterly earnings growth has exceeded 20% and says expectations are around 28% for the third quarter. The risk is what happens if earnings, margins and economic growth are approaching peak levels. If investors expect 25%–28% earnings growth and receive something below 20%, she believes the market could respond negatively. The Money Path featuring Victor… The conversation also turns to AI spending and the enormous amount of debt being issued by technology companies. Victoria isn't sounding the alarm yet: she says technology credit spreads have actually tightened in some cases and credit markets aren't currently signaling a crisis. But she makes an important point—credit is often where investors first see evidence that the Fed has gone too far. The Money Path featuring Victor… And her closing message may be the most important: investors focused on 5% Treasury yields and additional Fed hikes could be overlooking a resilient consumer, relatively benign credit conditions, a stable labor market, increased business applications and potentially improving productivity. The Money Path featuring Victor… Is Wall Street correctly pricing the risks—or getting ahead of itself again? 🔗 Website: https://biztalktodaytv.com 📧 Contact on Email: [email protected] 📢 Disclaimer: The views and opinions expressed on this program are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the official policy or position of CrossCheck Media Inc., Biz Talk Today TV (BTT), or their affiliated entities and distribution partners.

NFL Week 3 Chaos: Who’s Real, Who’s in Trouble & Don’t Chase Week 4 Lines | Madden On The Line
NFL Week 3 delivered chaos—and now comes the dangerous part for bettors: overreacting to what they just watched. On this episode of Madden On The Line, Jo Madden, Vice President of Sports Gaming Media at CrossCheck Media Inc., breaks down a wild NFL weekend featuring close finishes, surprising undefeated teams, struggling contenders and betting markets already adjusting for Week 4. Five teams entered Monday undefeated while five others sat at 0-3. Buffalo somehow survived five turnovers to beat the Chargers. The Raiders improved to a surprising 3-0. Houston, Miami, Tennessee, Tampa Bay and Los Angeles entered serious early-season territory at 0-3. And Jacksonville delivered one of the weekend's biggest statements with a 35-6 demolition of New England. MOTL SEPT 28th MOTL SEPT 28th MOTL SEPT 28th But Jo's biggest lesson is about price. Jacksonville may be one of her biggest Week 3 stock-ups, but after everyone watched the Jaguars win by 29 points, she isn't interested in blindly betting them the following week. With an early Jacksonville line of +1.5 at Cincinnati, Jo warns that the matchup could become a public trap. MOTL SEPT 28th She also examines Denver's dramatic win over the Rams, Detroit's explosive offense, Green Bay's alarming start, New England's problems and an AFC North where Pittsburgh, Baltimore, Cleveland and Cincinnati all sit at 2-1. MOTL SEPT 28th MOTL SEPT 28th Then it's time for Monday Night Football, with Philadelphia visiting Chicago. With Caleb Williams out and veteran Case Keenum expected to start, Jo explains why knowing about an injury isn't enough—the betting market knows it, too. MOTL SEPT 28th What did Week 3 actually teach us—and what is the betting market already charging you for?

Is the AI Bubble About to Burst? Keith Schneider Unveils His New Market Warning Indicator
Is Wall Street sitting on an AI-fueled market bubble—or can the rally keep running? On this episode of Keith’s Corner, host Todd M. Schoenberger, CEO of CrossCheck Media Inc., welcomes back Keith Schneider, CEO and Co-Founder of MarketGauge.com, for a deep dive into the risks building beneath the market as investors head into the fourth quarter. Schneider unveils a new proprietary “bubble indicator” designed to help distinguish between a market that merely looks expensive and one where conditions may be moving closer to a genuine breaking point. He stresses an important distinction: markets can remain in bubble territory for extended periods, making timing and risk management critical. The conversation turns to the enormous investment and debt financing behind America's AI infrastructure buildout. Schneider argues that debt alone doesn't tell the whole story—the critical question is whether that spending ultimately produces enough earnings and productivity to justify and service it. He identifies weakening forward expectations from leading technology companies as one potential catalyst investors should watch. There are already cracks beneath the headline indexes. Schneider points out that while the S&P 500 and Nasdaq remain market leaders, participation underneath them is weak, saying only about 30% of S&P 500 stocks were above their 50-day moving average at the time of the discussion. If leadership in technology and the Nasdaq begins to fail as well, he says that could become an important warning signal. Also on the radar: the 10-year Treasury near 5%, rapidly rising interest rates, housing pressures and whether AI itself could ultimately generate the productivity gains needed to justify today's enormous investment. Schneider also identifies biotechnology as an area potentially benefiting from the AI revolution, particularly as AI and semiconductor advances accelerate drug discovery, research and analysis. Is this another 1999—or can AI productivity keep the bull market alive? Keith Schneider breaks down the signals that could answer that question. 🔗 Website: https://biztalktodaytv.com 📧 Contact on Email: [email protected] 📢 Disclaimer: The views and opinions expressed on this program are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the official policy or position of CrossCheck Media Inc., Biz Talk Today TV (BTT), or their affiliated entities and distribution partners.

Chargers +7 at Buffalo? Jo Madden’s Ugly NFL Week 3 Bet | Madden On The Line
The Los Angeles Chargers are 0-2, their offense has struggled, and now they head into Buffalo for one of the toughest spots on their schedule. So why is Jo Madden looking at the Chargers +7? In this Madden On The Line clip, Madden—Vice President of Sports Gaming Media at CrossCheck Media Inc.—breaks down an against-the-spread trend involving 0-2 teams entering Week 3, and explains why an ugly bet can sometimes be exactly where the value is hiding. Jo examines the problems surrounding the Chargers offense, including Justin Herbert, Mike McDaniel’s system, the offensive line and the passing game, before revealing how she’s approaching the matchup with Buffalo. Her angle doesn’t stop with Los Angeles. Jo sees a scenario where Chargers +7 and Buffalo’s team total over 29.5 could both cash, while also targeting Josh Allen over 1.5 passing touchdowns and examining his rushing upside. The Chargers may be difficult to trust—but that doesn’t necessarily mean they’re impossible to bet. 🔗 Website: https://biztalktodaytv.com 📧 Contact on Email: [email protected] 📢 Disclaimer: The views and opinions expressed on this program are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the official policy or position of CrossCheck Media Inc., Biz Talk Today TV (BTT), or their affiliated entities and distribution partners.

Jaguars -3: Jo Madden Says BET the Bounce-Back vs. Patriots
Nobody wants to bet Jacksonville after last week—and Jo Madden says that’s exactly what makes this spot interesting. In this clip from Madden On The Line, Jo Madden, Vice President of Sports Gaming Media at CrossCheck Media Inc., breaks down New England at Jacksonville with the Jaguars sitting around a 3-point favorite. After Jacksonville's disappointing performance against Denver, Jo warns bettors against one of the biggest psychological traps in sports betting: letting last week's result dictate this week's handicap. Her approach is clear: Jacksonville -3. Jo expects a strong bounce-back performance from the Jaguars and believes they can put significant pressure on New England. She's also pairing that view with a player prop, targeting Parker Washington Over 61.5 receiving yards and even pointing to his potential to find the end zone. Her reasoning comes down to Jacksonville's passing attack, Trevor Lawrence's ability to push the football downfield, and her concerns about the Patriots secondary. The bigger lesson? The best bet doesn't always have to feel comfortable. 🔗 Website: https://biztalktodaytv.com 📧 Contact on Email: [email protected] 📢 Disclaimer: The views and opinions expressed on this program are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the official policy or position of CrossCheck Media Inc., Biz Talk Today TV (BTT), or their affiliated entities and distribution partners.

Giants’ QB Injury Changed Everything—Jo Madden Says DON’T Chase the Under
New quarterback. New number. New handicap. In this short clip from Madden On The Line, host Jo Madden, Vice President of Sports Gaming Media at CrossCheck Media Inc., explains why the quarterback change for the New York Giants completely resets her approach to their Week 3 matchup against the Tennessee Titans. With Jackson Dart out for the season according to the information discussed in the episode and Jameis Winston taking over the starting role, Jo says bettors should forget their original assumptions about the matchup. The market has already reacted dramatically, with the total dropping into the high 30s. Jo's lean is toward Under 39.5, but there's a problem: the best value may already be gone. Rather than chasing a total after such a significant move, Jo says she's staying away from both the Under and Over. She also isn't rushing to bet the side, given Tennessee's offensive struggles and the uncertainty surrounding what the Giants offense will look like with a different quarterback. Instead, she's turning to the player-prop market. Jo highlights Cam Scataboo's rushing yards, expecting the Giants to lean heavily on their running game and put Winston in a position to hand the football off against Tennessee. The broader betting lesson is one Jo continues to emphasize throughout Week 3: When the information changes, the handicap changes. Don't chase yesterday's number. 🔗 Website: https://biztalktodaytv.com 📧 Contact on Email: [email protected] 📢 Disclaimer: The views and opinions expressed on this program are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the official policy or position of CrossCheck Media Inc., Biz Talk Today TV (BTT), or their affiliated entities and distribution partners.

AI’s Next Gold Rush: The Technologies That Could Reshape Everything | The Money Path
The biggest opportunities in artificial intelligence may no longer be confined to software. On this episode of The Money Path, host Todd M. Schoenberger sits down with Zenetta Burger, Partner and Head of U.S. Investments at Giant Ventures, for a wide-ranging look at where venture capital is finding the next generation of AI opportunities. Burger says Giant Ventures believes the industry has barely “scratched the surface” of what AI can make possible—from new materials and energy technologies to drug discovery and agriculture. But what separates a transformative startup from another AI pitch deck? Burger explains that Giant looks for big, bold ideas, highly technical founders and entrepreneurs with what she calls an “irrationally ambitious” drive to build something capable of defining the future. The firm is willing to invest extremely early—even when an entrepreneur has little more than an idea—and can evaluate those investments over a 10-year horizon. The conversation then moves into one of the AI boom’s biggest physical constraints: energy. Burger calls the race to bring power online the “eye of Sauron” of Giant’s efforts, arguing that the demand for AI compute could fundamentally reshape energy systems. She discusses the importance of speed to power, nuclear technology, small modular reactors, battery storage and the technologies racing to supply data centers with dependable energy. And then there are the chips. Burger reveals that Giant recently invested in a chip company whose technology she says is 37 times more energy efficient at the low end than other chips on the market. She also highlights Cusp AI and the potential for artificial intelligence to discover entirely new materials that could transform manufacturing and sustainability. Healthcare could be another enormous frontier. Burger discusses AI-assisted drug development, personalized oncology and technology that can analyze medical records and insurance denials to help patients fight for continued access to medications. The conversation also tackles China and critical minerals, supply-chain risk, AI regulation, competition between startups and technology giants, and the tension between moving fast and developing AI responsibly. Burger argues that the U.S. needs more critical-mineral capacity while emphasizing that Giant looks for businesses capable of succeeding regardless of political developments. And perhaps the biggest surprise comes from agriculture: Burger describes a portfolio company using AI-powered robots and lasers to distinguish weeds from crops, reducing dependence on herbicides while potentially improving crop yields. The message from Giant Ventures: AI may be entering a much bigger phase—one where intelligence moves beyond the screen and begins reshaping the physical economy. 🔗 Website: https://biztalktodaytv.com 📧 Contact on Email: [email protected] 📢 Disclaimer: The views and opinions expressed on this program are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the official policy or position of CrossCheck Media Inc., Biz Talk Today TV (BTT), or their affiliated entities and distribution partners.

That Hook Matters! Jo Madden Says DON’T Bet Browns +2.5 | NFL Week 3
One half-point can completely change a bet. In this short clip from Madden On The Line, host Jo Madden, Vice President of Sports Gaming Media at CrossCheck Media Inc., breaks down the Carolina Panthers vs. Cleveland Browns matchup and explains why getting the right number matters. Jo liked Cleveland +3, but that number has disappeared with Carolina sitting around a 2.5-point favorite. If you grabbed the Browns at +3, Jo says you've secured valuable closing line value if the market closes at Carolina −2.5. But should bettors who missed +3 simply take Cleveland +2.5? Jo says no. Her reasoning comes down to one of football betting's most important key numbers: 3. With Cleveland +3, a Carolina victory by a field goal results in a push. At +2.5, that same outcome becomes a losing ticket. Jo still sees reasons to like Cleveland at home, particularly if the Browns defense can contain Bryce Young and the Panthers offense. But she refuses to sacrifice the number simply because she liked the original bet. The lesson: Don't chase yesterday's line. If the number disappears, sometimes the best bet is to wait. 🔗 Website: https://biztalktodaytv.com 📧 Contact on Email: [email protected] 📢 Disclaimer: The views and opinions expressed on this program are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the official policy or position of CrossCheck Media Inc., Biz Talk Today TV (BTT), or their affiliated entities and distribution partners.

Chiefs −10.5? Jo Madden Says WAIT—She Wants Miami +11 | NFL Week 3
Everybody wants the Kansas City Chiefs. Jo Madden is looking the other way. In this short clip from Madden On The Line, host Jo Madden, Vice President of Sports Gaming Media at CrossCheck Media Inc., breaks down the Week 3 matchup between the Kansas City Chiefs and Miami Dolphins—and explains why she has no interest in laying double digits with Kansas City on the road. After Miami was blown out by San Francisco and Kansas City escaped Indianapolis with an overtime victory, Jo says the setup is almost perfect for public money to continue pouring into the Chiefs. Her strategy? Wait. With the spread sitting at Kansas City −10.5, Jo wants the number to keep climbing before taking Miami plus the points. If the Dolphins reach +11 or +11.5, she becomes even more interested—saying she could potentially increase her position at +11.5. Jo also points to Miami's home-field conditions, hot and humid weather, Kansas City's travel and the Chiefs coming off an overtime game as factors behind her thinking. Her message for bettors is simple: Don't chase the team everybody wants. Wait for the number you want. 🔗 Website: https://biztalktodaytv.com 📧 Contact on Email: [email protected] 📢 Disclaimer: The views and opinions expressed on this program are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the official policy or position of CrossCheck Media Inc., Biz Talk Today TV (BTT), or their affiliated entities and distribution partners.

Scott Zelniker: The Fed Is Making a Mistake—Here’s Where He’d Put Money Next | The Money Path
Is the Federal Reserve fighting the wrong battle? On this episode of The Money Path, host Todd M. Schoenberger sits down with Scott Zelniker, Partner and Executive Managing Director–Wealth Management at Zelniker Dorfman Private Wealth, for a wide-ranging conversation about interest rates, the consumer, government debt, housing, artificial intelligence, semiconductors—and why he believes investors should become more prudent after years of powerful market gains. Zelniker challenges the conventional inflation narrative. While headline employment numbers may look strong, he says conversations with business owners and clients tell a different story: conditions are getting tighter for companies and consumers. His argument is that today's oil-driven inflation pressure is fundamentally a supply shock, meaning higher interest rates may do little to solve the underlying problem while simultaneously increasing pressure from mortgages, credit cards and other borrowing costs. The discussion then turns to America's roughly $40 trillion national debt. Zelniker argues that investors may be focusing too heavily on the headline debt number and not enough on something potentially more important: the cost of servicing it. He also explains why he believes lower short-term rates could increase demand for longer-duration Treasury securities and help create a steeper yield curve. But his most provocative investment thesis may involve technology. Zelniker says he's “not an AI guy as much as I'm a semiconductor guy.” His argument: investors have narrowed the semiconductor story too much around artificial intelligence. Whatever the next stage of the global economy becomes—AI, automobiles, defense, travel, communications or something investors haven't identified yet—semiconductor chips will remain embedded throughout it. That doesn't mean chasing everything connected to AI. Zelniker favors profitable businesses with strong balance sheets and expresses concern about companies taking on significant debt without generating profits. He also explains why his firm has allowed cash to build to roughly 10%–15% across client accounts instead of automatically reinvesting every maturity and dividend—and reveals the market signal he's watching before becoming more aggressive: the VIX. Zelniker says he wants to see genuine fear enter the market and points to a VIX above 30 as a level that gets his attention for putting capital back to work. Plus: why 7% mortgages haven't crushed housing, how low-rate mortgages have effectively trapped existing homeowners, whether America can avoid stagflation, why data centers aren't going away, and what today's complacent market could mean for investors. The big question: Is this the time to keep chasing the bull market—or build dry powder for the next real opportunity? 🔗 Website: https://biztalktodaytv.com 📧 Contact on Email: [email protected] 📲 Download the Biz Talk Today TV app on Apple & Android devices. 📢 Disclaimer: The views and opinions expressed on this program are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the official policy or position of CrossCheck Media Inc., Biz Talk Today TV (BTT), or their affiliated entities and distribution partners.

Something Always Breaks: 5% Yields, AI Billions & Wall Street’s Next Big Risk | Wayve Wire
Wall Street may be climbing, but underneath the rally, interest rates, AI spending, consumer stress and enormous capital expenditures are creating one of the most unusual investment environments in years. On this episode of Wayve Wire, host Todd M. Schoenberger is joined by Wayve Capital CEO Joe Besecker and CIO Rhys Williams for a wide-ranging discussion about where the economy and financial markets could go next. Besecker zeroes in on one of his biggest concerns: the rapid rise in Treasury yields. He argues that history shows sharp moves in the 10-year yield have often preceded periods of financial stress, from previous market disruptions to the 2023 regional-bank turmoil. His concern isn't necessarily that another crisis is inevitable—but that higher rates are increasing pressure throughout the financial system. For households and small businesses, the consequences are already much more tangible. Besecker points to housing, construction and borrowing costs as areas feeling the pressure, while noting that massive AI infrastructure projects may be far less sensitive to incremental changes in interest rates. Williams sees an American economy increasingly divided between those benefiting from asset appreciation and those struggling with higher everyday costs. He argues that the upper portion of consumers remains in relatively strong shape, while the bottom half faces much greater pressure. More importantly, Williams believes the current expansion is unusual because it is increasingly capital-spending driven rather than consumer driven. Then comes the biggest Wall Street question: Can the AI investment boom survive higher rates? Williams argues that AI infrastructure spending can continue because the economics are ultimately about the returns companies can generate from scarce computing capacity. He points to strong demand even for older generations of Nvidia chips as evidence of a compute-constrained environment and says companies are likely to keep “feeding the beast” as long as those economics persist. The conversation also examines the U.S.-China relationship, critical minerals and America's dependence on global supply chains. Besecker argues that the United States needs a better balance between global sourcing and domestic production, while Williams notes that developing new domestic mineral capacity can take years—meaning the relationship with China remains economically important in the meantime. Are 5% yields the market's next breaking point—or can the AI capital-spending boom overpower the pressure coming from higher rates? Besecker and Williams break down the risks, opportunities and signals investors should be watching now. 🔗 Website: https://biztalktodaytv.com 📧 Contact on Email: [email protected] 📢 Disclaimer: The views and opinions expressed on this program are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the official policy or position of CrossCheck Media Inc., Biz Talk Today TV (BTT), or their affiliated entities and distribution partners.

China Controls the Minerals. Can Project Vault Protect America? | Power Hour
America’s battery supply chain has become a national-security, economic and technology story—and the United States is racing to reduce vulnerabilities built up over decades. On this episode of Power Hour, host Todd M. Schoenberger, CEO of CrossCheck Media Inc., sits down with Steve Christensen, Executive Director of the Responsible Battery Coalition, for a deep dive into Project Vault, critical minerals, China and the future of America’s battery supply chain. Christensen explains how Project Vault differs from a traditional government stockpile. Manufacturers identify which critical materials they need, while the system works with participating suppliers to secure those materials and provide greater stability during potential disruptions. He also discusses the billion-dollar participation announced by Glencore and Mercuria and why he believes the initiative can help insulate U.S. manufacturers from sudden supply shocks. Power Hour featuring Steve Chri… Power Hour featuring Steve Chri… But Christensen argues that mining alone isn't enough. America also needs domestic processing and refining capacity. As he explains, raw materials extracted in the United States can still ultimately depend on China if America lacks the capability to transform those materials into usable industrial inputs. Power Hour featuring Steve Chri… The conversation also examines antimony, lithium, cobalt and graphite, the importance of battery recycling and circular supply chains, and the potential consequences for automobiles, defense, energy infrastructure and AI data centers if geopolitical tensions disrupt access to critical materials. Christensen specifically warns that greater U.S. dependence on battery-intensive data-center infrastructure could create another strategic vulnerability if key portions of the supply chain remain tied to China. Power Hour featuring Steve Chri… Power Hour featuring Steve Chri… From the battery starting your car to the backup power supporting the AI revolution, this episode explores a question increasingly important to American industry: Who controls the materials that power the modern economy? 🔗 Website: https://biztalktodaytv.com 📧 Contact on Email: [email protected] 📢 Disclaimer: The views and opinions expressed on this program are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the official policy or position of CrossCheck Media Inc., Biz Talk Today TV (BTT), or their affiliated entities and distribution partners.

NFL Week 3: Jo Madden’s Best Bets, Moving Lines & TNF Betting Strategy | Madden On The Line
NFL Week 3 is here—and Jo Madden says betting the right team isn't enough. You need the right number. On this episode of Madden On The Line, Jo Madden, Vice President of Sports Gaming Media at CrossCheck Media Inc., breaks down the Week 3 NFL betting board after a week of significant line movement. Some of the numbers Jo targeted earlier in the week have disappeared, others have improved—and several games now look completely different from when the opening lines were posted. The show starts with Thursday Night Football and Atlanta vs. Green Bay, where the Falcons moved from roughly +7 to +4.5. Jo explains why she loved Atlanta at +7, still liked +5.5, but isn't interested in blindly chasing +4.5. Instead, she lays out a potential live-betting strategy designed to get a better Falcons number if Green Bay scores first. Then it's into the player-prop market. Jo breaks down Michael Penix Jr., Bijan Robinson, Kyle Pitts, Jordan Love and Tucker Kraft, including why she sees potential opportunities through the passing game rather than relying heavily on rushing production. She also reveals how she constructs player-prop ladders without putting multiple full units at risk on the same player. From there, Jo attacks the rest of the Week 3 board. Kansas City has climbed to a double-digit road favorite against Miami, but rather than chase the Chiefs, Jo is watching for an even bigger number on the Dolphins. Jacksonville gets a potential bounce-back opportunity against New England, while Cleveland's move through the key number of three provides a perfect example of why half a point can completely change a wager. Jo also tackles the Chargers' brutal 0-2 start, whether Los Angeles can stay within the number against Buffalo, and an alternative Bills team-total angle for bettors who don't want to trust the Chargers. And with Detroit sitting below the key number of seven against the Jets, Jo explains why that may be one number bettors shouldn't wait on. The overriding lesson for Week 3 is simple: Don't bet the logo. Don't chase yesterday's number. Bet the number in front of you. With 16 NFL games available, Jo's other message may be even more important: you don't need 16 bets. Sometimes the best bet is one word—WAIT. 🔗 Website: https://biztalktodaytv.com 📧 Contact on Email: [email protected] 📲 Download the Biz Talk Today TV app on Apple & Android devices. 📢 Disclaimer: The views and opinions expressed on this program are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the official policy or position of CrossCheck Media Inc., Biz Talk Today TV (BTT), or their affiliated entities and distribution partners.
