In an interview with Andrew Ross Sorkin at the New York Times DealBook Summit in New York City on Wednesday, Call Her Daddy host Alex Cooper confirmed that Donald Trump's campaign reached out to her team about appearing on her chart-topping podcast. The 30-year-old discussed her decision to have Vice President Kamala Harris come on her show despite trying to "stay away from politics." She also commented on Call Her Daddy being compared to The Joe Rogan Experience , hosted by Joe Rogan, who brought Donald Trump on as a guest in October ahead of the 2024 election. Presidential campaigns entering the podcasting space goes to show how influential the format can be among young people, who have become disillusioned by traditional media outlets. Call Her Daddy fans question if Alex Cooper will have Donald or Ivanka Trump on podcast Alex Cooper says her Kamala Harris Call Her Daddy episode is 'totally worth' the backlash After much speculation, it has been confirmed that Trump's people reached out to Call Her Daddy about appearing on the show, which is the most listened-to podcast among women. When Sorkin asked about how she was able to get a presidential nominee to agree to be on her show, Alex revealed: "Both sides reached out." Apparently, her team "had a Zoom call with Trump's team," but she "wasn't on it." While the podcast host tends to keep politics out of her show, she saw having the Vice President on as an opportunity to have "a larger conversation" about reproductive rights, a topic she and her listeners feel very strongly about. She said: "It's about women's right to their body. Why not have someone on [Call Her Daddy] who could have a big effect on the country? So I did it. And it was fun." She continued: "Joe Rogan has a conversation, he knows his audience. I know my audience," addressing the fact that Trump was a guest on The Joe Rogan Experience around the same time she hosted the VP. The popular podcaster admitted that she sometimes feels competitive with Rogan, who bested her for the number one spot as the most listened-to podcast, according to this year's Spotify Wrapped. The two are constantly compared, as they are seen as being on opposite sides of the gender spectrum, which extends to their guests. She said: "I don't think of Joe when I'm having my coffee every morning, But I'm aware of the comparison in the media... I have a lot of respect for what he's doing."

The Ranks of Billionaires Is Booming.Tech Stocks Get a Lot of the Credit.ANDERSON TOWNSHIP, Ohio (AP) — Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow's home was broken into during Monday Night Football in the latest home invasion of a pro athlete in the U.S., authorities said Tuesday. No one was injured in the break-in, but the home was ransacked, according to a report provided by the Hamilton County Sheriff's Office. Deputies weren't immediately able to determine what items were stolen. A person who is employed by Burrow arrived at the Anderson Township home Monday night to find a shattered bedroom window and the home in disarray. The person called their mother, and then 911 was contacted, according to the report. Deputies reached out to neighbors in an attempt to piece together surveillance footage. “Our investigators are exploring every avenue,” public information officer Kyla Woods said. The homes of Chiefs stars Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce were broken into in October. In the NBA , Milwaukee Bucks forward Bobby Portis had his home broken into Nov. 2 and Minnesota Timberwolves guard Mike Conley Jr.'s home was burglarized on Sept. 15 while he was at a Minnesota Vikings game. Portis had offered a $40,000 reward for information. Both the NFL and NBA issued security alerts to players after those break-ins, urging them to take additional precautions to secure their homes. In league memos previously obtained by The Associated Press, the NFL said homes of professional athletes across multiple sports have become “increasingly targeted for burglaries by organized and skilled groups.” And the NBA revealed that the FBI has connected some burglaries to “transnational South American Theft Groups” that are “reportedly well-organized, sophisticated rings that incorporate advanced techniques and technologies, including pre-surveillance, drones, and signal jamming devices.” Some of the burglary groups have conducted extensive surveillance on targets, including attempted home deliveries and posing as grounds maintenance or joggers in the neighborhood, according to officials.

More details are awaited. pic.twitter.com/aYydNCXYHM AAP has responded strongly to the attack claiming that the attacker is associated with the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). AAP also made a reference of the growing law and order decline in the Union Territory and threw light on the Delhi Police inability to curb it. It should be noted that being a Union Territory, the Delhi Police is governed by the Union Home Ministry and not the Delhi government. Delhi Chief Minister Atishi Marlena took to X stating that BJP was ‘nervous’ for the upcoming Delhi Assembly election in 2025. “Today in broad daylight, a BJP worker attacked Kejriwal-ji. The BJP is feeling very nervous about losing the Delhi elections for the third time. Delhi people will take revenge for such cheap acts. Last time they got eight seats, this time Delhi people will give zero seats to BJP,” her X post read. आज दिन दहाड़े भाजपा के कार्यकर्ता ने @ArvindKejriwal जी पर हमला किया। दिल्ली का चुनाव तीसरी बार हारने की बौखलाहट भाजपा में दिख रही है। भाजपा वालों: दिल्ली के लोग ऐसी घटिया हरकतों का बदला लेंगे। पिछली बार 8 सीटें आयीं थी, इस बार दिल्ली वाले भाजपा को ज़ीरो सीट देंगे pic.twitter.com/LgJGN1aQ0T Delhi minister Saurabh Bharadwaj alleged the attacker wanted to set Kejriwal afire after throwing spirit on him.

Kejriwal and the security personnel accompanying him were later seen wiping their faces. “A man threw spirit on him (Kejriwal). We could smell it. And there was an attempt to burn him (Kejriwal) alive. “The man was carrying spirit in one hand and a matchbox in the other hand. He threw spirit that fell on Kejriwal and me... but he could not start the fire. Our alert volunteers and the public caught him,” Bharadwaj claimed in a press conference.
Billionaires have seen their combined wealth shoot up 121 percent over the past decade to $14 trillion, Swiss bank UBS said Thursday, with tech billionaires' coffers filling the fastest. Switzerland's biggest bank, which is among the world's largest wealth managers, said the number of dollar billionaires increased from 1,757 to 2,682 over the past 10 years, peaking in 2021 with 2,686. The 10th edition of UBS's annual Billionaire Ambitions report, which tracks the wealth of the world's richest people, found that billionaires have comfortably outperformed global equity markets over the past decade. The report documents "the growth and investment of great wealth, as well as how it's being preserved for future generations and used to have a positive effect on society", said Benjamin Cavalli, head of strategic clients at UBS global wealth management. Between 2015 and 2024, total billionaire wealth increased by 121 percent from $6.3 trillion to $14.0 trillion -- while the MSCI AC World Index of global equities rose 73 percent. The wealth of tech billionaires increased the fastest, followed by that of industrialists. Worldwide, tech billionaires' wealth tripled from $788.9 billion in 2015 to $2.4 trillion in 2024. "In earlier years, the new billionaires commercialised e-commerce, social media and digital payments; more recently they engineered the generative AI boom, while also developing cyber-security, fintech, 3D printing and robotics," UBS said. The report found that since 2020, the global growth trend had slowed due to declines among China's billionaires. From 2015 to 2020, billionaire wealth grew globally at an annual rate of 10 percent, but growth has plunged to one percent since 2020. Chinese billionaire wealth more than doubled from 2015 to 2020, rising from $887.3 billion to $2.1 trillion, but has since fallen back to $1.8 trillion. However, North American billionaire wealth has risen 58.5 percent to $6.1 trillion since 2020, "led by industrials and tech billionaires". Meanwhile billionaires are relocating more frequently, with 176 having moved country since 2020, with Switzerland, the United Arab Emirates, Singapore and the United States being popular destinations. More from this section In 2024, some 268 people became billionaires for the first time, with 60 percent of them entrepreneurs. "The year's new billionaires were mainly self-made," said UBS. The report said US billionaires accrued the greatest gains in 2024, reinforcing the country's place as the world's main centre for billionaire entrepreneurs. Their wealth rose 27.6 percent to $5.8 trillion, or more than 40 percent of billionaire wealth worldwide. Billionaires' wealth from mainland China and Hong Kong fell 16.8 percent to $1.8 trillion, with the number of billionaires dropping from 588 to 501. Indian billionaires' wealth increased 42.1 percent to $905.6 billion, while their number grew from 153 to 185. Western Europe’s total billionaire wealth rose 16.0 percent to $2.7 trillion -- partly due to a 24 percent increase in Swiss billionaires. UAE billionaires' aggregate wealth rose 39.5 percent to $138.7 billion. UBS said billionaires faced an "uncertain world" over the next 10 years, due to high geopolitical tensions, trade barriers and governments with mounting spending requirements. Billionaires will therefore need to rely on their previous distinctive traits: "smart risk-taking, business focus and determination". "Risk-taking billionaires are likely to be at the forefront of creating two technology-related industries of the future already taking shape: generative AI and renewables/electrification," UBS predicted. And more flexible wealth planning will be needed as billionaire families move country and spread around the world. The heirs and philanthropic causes of baby boom billionaires are set to inherit an estimated $6.3 trillion over the next 15 years, UBS said. rjm/gv
Six-time Super Bowl champion Bill Belichick interviewed for the head-coaching job at North Carolina, Inside Carolina and the Raleigh News & Observer reported Thursday. According to the News & Observer, Belichick "blew them away in the interview," yet he is not likely to move forward because he is pushing 73 years old and has no experience in the college game. After he and the New England Patriots agreed to part ways following a 24-year stint, Belichick interviewed for the head job with the Atlanta Falcons, who instead hired Raheem Morris. The North Carolina interview is the first known instance of Belichick showing interest in a college position. Belichick is expected to draw interest for NFL openings in the upcoming hiring cycle. The Tar Heels retained an outside advisory firm to identify coaching candidates to replace Mack Brown, whom they fired at the end of the regular season. North Carolina went 6-6, including 3-5 in the Atlantic Coast Conference. "We've had a tremendous response of people across the country, of agents calling us, coaches, people calling on behalf of other people that are in the industry," North Carolina athletic director Bubba Cunningham said in an in-house interview the school posted online earlier this week. "We are very optimistic of where we are, the interest in our program is just extraordinary, and we'll get a great coach to lead us. Who can lead us in the next three, five, 10 years? We need somebody that can come in and take us from good to great." --Field Level Media
