Founder and CEO of full-stack AI chip company Fractile, Walter Goodwin, joins Sarah Guo to discuss the bets he's made on the future of the chip market as other major players like Broadcom, NVIDIA, and AMD try to accelerate their workloads. They discuss the difference in Fractile's newer approach on model architecture with a full-stack team in the current chip landscape and the technical bets they're making in that direction. Walter also talks about compressing the gap between the chip design cycle and its payoff period, and making a generational leap in AI inference to realize the bet in volume against the value to be captured.  Sign up for new podcasts every week.

Frederick Douglass is remembered as one of the most powerful orators in American history, a leading voice for abolition, and an extraordinary champion of equal rights. He was also one of the 19th century's most important thinkers about freedom of speech. For Douglass, free speech was not simply a constitutional protection against government censorship. It was a fundamental human right, an indispensable weapon in the struggle against slavery, and an essential condition of equal citizenship and self-government. In this episode, scholar Jacob Mchangama examines Douglass's remarkably expansive understanding of free speech, drawing on a new research project that examines hundreds of his speeches, writings, and letters. Julie Silverbrook, chief content and learning officer at the National Constitution Center, moderates.    Resources  The Future of Free Speech, Jacob Mchangama  Frederick Douglass Free Speech Corpus, Jacob Mchangama  “Free Speech in a Changing World,” We the People (July 30, 2026)  Jacob Mchangama, Free Speech: A History From Socrates to Social Media (2022)   Jacob Mchangama and Jeff Kosseff, The Future of Free Speech: Reversing the Global Decline of Democracy's Most Essential Freedom (2026)  Freedom of Religion, Speech, Press, Assembly, and Petition, National Constitution Center  First Amendment: Speech and Press Clauses, National Constitution Center    Stay Connected and Learn More  Stay connected with We the People—follow, rate, and review the show wherever you listen.  Questions or comments?

Artificial intelligence can write poetry, generate images, diagnose patterns in enormous datasets, and carry on a remarkably human-sounding conversation. But what is actually happening inside the machine? In the second episode of our series on AI & human flourishing, we trace the history of artificial intelligence from Alan Turing and early rule-based computers through machine learning, Deep Blue, AlphaZero, and the arrival of ChatGPT and other large language models with technology and computer science experts to help us understand what changed along the way. Then we look under the hood of a large language model. What are tokens, vectors, and transformers? How can a machine trained to predict the next word produce such astonishing results? Ultimately posing the question of whether understanding the machinery changes the way we think about what AI is—and what it isn't. Theme song and credits music by Breakmaster Cylinder.

What does it actually look like when a collegiate athlete decides to take women's health into her own hands, and bring her whole team along with her? Kate Putman is a senior at NC State University running cross country and track for one of the most decorated programs in the country under Coach Laurie Henes. She's also a biological sciences student, a Lane 9 inaugural athlete ambassador, a steeplechase All-American, a summer research intern with REDs researcher Katie Ransberger in Munich, and — perhaps most importantly — pet-parent of Kaz, a mostly rottweiler who has attended team photo shoots and maybe even improved her race times. She's here to talk about all of it. Heather and Kate cover the journey from excruciating period pain freshman year to fueling adequately to the support around her, what she learned watching low energy availability research happen in real time in Germany, and how a culture shift around fueling on her team has looked less like a lecture and more like popsicles on a long run trail. Chapters [00:05:00] Interning with REDs researcher Katie Ransberger in Munich — and what she brought back to NC State [00:12:00] The fueling adjustment no one talks about: going from farm-fresh food to a college dining hall [00:15:00] How her strength coach helped her reframe what a strong body looks like [00:20:00] Joining the Lane 9 Ambassador Program — and why she wanted to be educated first [00:28:00] What it means to actually fuel for endurance: carbs, timing, and breaking down the fear [00:29:00] How fueling culture shifted on the NC State team — snacks, gels on long runs, and popsicle trail angels [00:34:00] Period pain, birth control, and finding a doctor who actually explained things [00:42:00] Why she adopted Kaz two years ago — and why she'd do it again in a heartbeat Resources mentioned: Katie Ransberger — REDs and low energy availability researcher currently based in Munich; mentioned in connection with ongoing research in female athletes Skratch Labs Carb Mix — Kate's go-to post-run fueling Find Lane 9 clinicians, coaches, and dietitians at lane9project.org/directory Are you an athlete?

AI could lead to an extinction event, but don't worry, the stock market will be hitting all-time highs on the way there! We're entering a new phase of the artificial intelligence race where now CEOs from OpenAI and Anthropic are practically begging for industry-wide regulation. This all seems too… convenient. What's really behind this new AI regulation push, and how close are we to a society-shaking event? Dave is back to give his full take on the AI race. A lot has happened recently—warnings of dangers to humanity, rogue agents setting up untraceable communications, and AI CEOs conveniently wanting to join forces. First, we'll touch on the Hugging Face incident that triggered an unprompted cyberattack that human oversight was kept out of; then the economic risks to all Americans (what happens if this AI bubble bursts); and finally why these CEOs are suddenly pushing regulation so hard. Let's get into the financials, though: these companies are losing billions of dollars every year and have extremely optimistic projections to hit. The question is, what happens if they're off the mark? Past bubbles resulted in an almost 80% stock market crash…but this time, the AI industry is even bigger. In This Episode We Cover Why top AI companies suddenly want the government to “regulate” the industry The chances of an extinction event now that AI agents can go rogue without our knowledge The risks to real estate, the stock market, and many Americans' retirement accounts The trillion-dollar bubble that is looking a lot like the dot-com and railroad bubbles of decades past Why citizens from other countries are so much more optimistic about AI than Americans And So Much More!

If you have ever gone looking for how to plan your finances for the year and given up somewhere around February, it probably was not a failure of effort. Traditional budgeting keeps you looking backward, sorting through what already happened and accounting for where things went wrong. After an hour of that, who has the energy to think about the next few months?Chapter 13 is what becomes possible once the system is running. It works because you already budget by paycheck, so the year is built out of units you can actually see. Planning ahead is what protects the progress you have already made, because the most common way momentum disappears is an unexpected expense going on a credit card or coming out of savings. Plan for 75% of what is going to happen and the other 25% gets a lot easier to handle.The planning ritual in this chapter is Past, Present and Future. Past is a two-minute glance at whether the last pay period went the way you planned. Present is what you need for the current one. Future is where the real work happens and where most of your time goes. You look at your calendar, you scan your SpendFuture categories, and then you go after the ones that never make it onto a list: the deck that needs staining this summer, the mattress you keep saying you will replace. The things that turn up at 2 a.m., never at a convenient time.Noah and Chantelle came to Kelsa after years of what they described as doing everything right but never getting anywhere. They would pay extra on the credit card one month, feel proud, then watch a forgotten annual bill wipe it out the next. Once they started planning three months ahead, they could see their daughter's dance recital fees, their car registration and a family trip all in the same quarter, already funded. Then they took a family vacation without putting a single dollar on a credit card. She cried in the airport.What you will walk away with is a rhythm for making decisions while things are calm, so the version of you who has to handle it later doesn't have to scramble.Resources mentioned:See the illustration from this chapter.The Year-at-a-Glance Planner comes with this chapter. Pull it up when it's time to plan and let it jog your memory instead of trying to hold the whole year in your head.Subscribe so you don't miss next Thursday.

Silicon Bites Ep409 | 2026-10-01 | Trump wants compliant allies – supine, dependent, insecure – and possibly divided. Now his animosities and resentments, intrigues and plotting may finally be tearing NATO apart. In this episode: the Pentagon's club of the obedient: why Eldridge Colby's formation of a NATO inner circle heralds the death of the alliance by other means, and why Europe must refuse to play this self-destructive game.

Lt. Gen. (retired) Ben Hodges is the former Commanding General of United States Army Europe, a post he held from 2014 to 2017 during the initial Russian invasion of Ukraine and NATO's subsequent reinforcement of its eastern flank. A 1980 West Point graduate and infantry officer, he commanded at company, battalion and brigade level, including the 1st Brigade Combat Team of the 101st Airborne Division during Operation Iraqi Freedom. He later served as Commander of NATO Allied Land Command in İzmir.Since retirement, Hodges has become a prominent analyst of European security, NATO logistics, Russia and Ukraine. He serves as a NATO Senior Mentor for Logistics, is associated with GLOBSEC's Future of Security and Defence Council, previously held CEPA's Pershing Chair in Strategic Studies, and co-authored Future War and the Defence of Europe. ----------LINKS:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ben_Hodgeshttps://x.com/general_ben?lang=enhttps://www.globsec.org/who-we-are/our-people/lieutenant-general-retired-ben-hodgeshttps://www.rusi.org/people/hodges-0https://www.thecipherbrief.com/experts/ben-hodges----------SUPPORT THE CHANNEL:https://www.buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtainhttps://www.patreon.com/siliconcurtainhttps://www.gofundme.com/f/scaling-up-campaign-to-fight-authoritarian-disinformation----------DESCRIPTION:Ben Hodges on Western Will, Russia's Escalation, and a Path to Ukrainian VictoryJonathan interviews retired Lt. Gen. Ben Hodges about what they describe as a “sub-admission” war in which the West fails to openly acknowledge Russia is at war with it, undermining political will, policy coherence, and a defined end state. They discuss Russia's rising risk-taking, including the Leipzig airport explosives drone incident and an underwhelming German response, arguing Moscow fills the space created by Western inaction and is rarely made to pay meaningful, unanticipated costs (including over frozen Russian assets). Hodges criticizes U.S. leadership under President Trump and urges Europe to “defeat Russia first” by enabling Ukraine to expel Russian forces, which would also signal resolve to China and isolate Iran. They contrast Ukraine's infrastructure-strike exhaustion strategy with Russia's strategy of erasure, warn about an accelerating drone arms race, and note civilians' constrained options under intensified strikes. Hodges argues strategic bombing is not decisive, highlights Ukraine's growing capacity to damage Russia's oil and gas revenue and to conduct integrated combined-arms operations, and closes by stressing war as a test of will.----------EPISODES:00:00 War Is a Test of Will01:08 Naming the Conflict03:10 Russia Fills the Space05:19 Seizing the Initiative07:21 Why the West Hasn't Mobilized09:26 Leadership and Defeat Russia First12:24 Theories of Victory16:17 Europe's Crocodile Strategy19:32 Drone Arms Race Reality21:35 Life Under Airstrikes25:19 Why Strategic Bombing Won't Win27:36 Combined Arms Hope29:34 Final Warning on Will30:25 Support the Channel----------TRUSTED CHARITIES ON THE GROUND:Car4Ukrainehttps://car4ukraine.com/en-US/campaignsDzyga's Pawhttps://dzygaspaw.com/projectsSuperhumans - Hospital for war traumashttps://superhumans.com/en/UNBROKEN - Treatment.

Fresh off a trip from Jerusalem to Rome, Lance Wallnau stood near the spot where Nero made a public spectacle of Christians and blamed them for burning the city. The persecuted "cult" Rome tried to wipe out ended up outlasting the empire, and a church now stands over the place where Peter was buried. With America's political divide deepening and the midterms around the corner, Lance explains why the ruins of Rome give Christians a perspective they need right now. Nothing can stop the Kingdom, and this episode shows you why. ----------------------------------- Level 10 Liquid

“That's sort of how we, like, when we started the agency, then we started with just the two of us, and my role alongside Jared was everything. We did everything. And then as we expanded and grew, like, we realized, actually, like, not only my partner at the agency, but I am the chief listening officer. It starts with listening, and everything flows from there. And I think that one thing that makes our agency unique is I've worked with every other agency, like when we worked as creators, and we were getting hired. So you see the uniqueness of, and I'll actually even say too, like, the power of listening, and I think that's something that, again, going back to what I say is, I can say that, like, Jodi, I see you, or I can say, Jodi, like, I see you. And there is a massive difference. And when we can take our brands, our business, or the people that we work with and say, like, I really see you, then we start creating content, including brand music.” – Matt BorckThis episode's guest is a partner, Chief Listening Officer, and co-founder of The One Group Agency. Driven by a deep curiosity about human behavior, he believes that companies must put their audiences first, speaking with them rather than shouting at them. Using empathy and deep listening to find the human truths buried beneath standard data, he helps organizations transition marketing teams from basic internal request departments into true strategic business partners.His name is Matt Borck, and if you're tired of chasing empty metrics and want to build genuine, profitable relationships, Matt's perspective shows that it all starts with listening.And if you like what you hear and you want to support this podcast, there are a bunch of ways to do that at audiobrandingpodcast.com, including subscribing to the YouTube channel, the newsletter, writing a review, or buying me a coffee. Because this takes a lot of coffee. Thanks so much.(00:00) – The Importance of ListeningOur conversation starts with Matt's earliest memories of music, and how much the power of sound influenced him as a child. “As a kid,” he recalls, “I always felt music that's just… even now, even as I say it, like, I get shivers. I. When I would hear something, I felt it, and I felt what my nervous system was doing.” He shares more about his journey from music to marketing, and how his role as the One Group Agency's chief listening officer evolved. “Great listeners don't say they're great listeners,” he adds. “Usually people tell you you're a great listener. But one of the things it taught me so much about is how to truly be present, how to make [and] save space, how to truly listen.”(13:18) – From Music to MarketingOur conversation turns to Matt's approach to harnessing the emotional power of sound in branding to build a sense of trust with listeners. “That's where I would get to know as best as I can and choose something that also doesn't feel out of place with the content that we've created,” he explains, “but it makes you feel something. If I can instantly put you at ease, I believe that you'll be prepared for the rest of what we've got.” We discuss his work on a new study that focuses on music, community, and culture, and how he reaches beyond his own perspective to connect with his audience. “If I'm sent something to review from the agency,” he explains, “and, all of a sudden, I review it, and it doesn't do anything for me, that's actually a good thing… It takes me a little bit more to get into because it's not my natural style, but if I want to honor the target audience, I've got to get over myself.”(26:22) – AI and the Future of VoiceAs the first half of our discussion wraps up, Matt talks about his two daughters and the role of music in their lives, and he illustrates a point about AI's uncanny perfection with a story about U2's concerts after they went big. “They were trying to figure out a way to get that [early] connection back,” he says. “And so they staged things like little screw-ups in their set or like an amp breaking, where they had to replace an amp. But what it did was it made them human again.” We talk about AI's role in sound and audio branding, and the subtle imperfections that help set human performances apart. “We can train [AI] to do things like that,” he explains, “but it's not the same, where, even the breath that you took, like, there are different breathing patterns that we all do as human beings.”Episode SummaryMatt discusses how deep listening shapes marketing strategies.Matt explains his transition from musician to marketing expert.Discussion on the impact of AI in voiceover and sound branding.Tune in for next week's episode as we continue discussing AI's role in sonic branding, Matt's latest musical and marketing projects, and his approach to building an authentic brand strategy.Connect with the Audio Branding Podcast:Book your project with Voice Overs and Vocals by visiting https://voiceoversandvocals.comConnect with me on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/jodikrangle/Watch the Audio Branding Podcast on YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/c/JodiKrangleVOConnect with me on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/jodikrangle/Leave the Audio Branding Podcast a review at https://lovethepodcast.com/audiobranding (Thank you!)Share your passion effectively with these Tips for Sounding Your Best as a Podcast Guest!https://voiceoversandvocals.com/tips-for-sounding-your-best-as-a-podcast-guest/Get my Top Five Tips for Implementing an Intentional Audio Strategyhttps://voiceoversandvocals.com/audio-branding-strategy/Editing/Production by Humberto Franco - https://humbertofranco.com/This podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: OP3 - https://op3.dev/privacy

Guest: Kevin RothWe all love to think that the outcome of a game comes down to talent, strategy, and maybe a little luck. But there's another player on the field that nobody can control: the weather. Wind can turn a routine fly ball into an adventure, heat and humidity can test athletes and fans, and a thunderstorm can send an entire stadium scrambling for cover. So how much can weather actually influence the game—and what should fans know before they head to the stadium? Today, we're talking to Kevin Roth, a sports meteorologist who lives right at the intersection of weather and sports. We'll talk about forecasting for different sports, how weather affects performance and strategy, and how fans can be better prepared for whatever Mother Nature throws their way.Chapters00:00 Introduction to Kevin Roth and sports meteorology01:57 How Kevin Rxoth became a weather geek and his background03:49 The intersection of weather and sports forecasting07:52 Data analysis in sports weather forecasting12:04 Challenges of using weather data for player-specific insights12:39 Break 112:40 Impact of stadium microclimates and venue design19:48 Weather's influence on game strategy and player performance23:57 Weather considerations in sports betting and fantasy sports24:40 Break 224:41 Adapting forecasts for severe weather and safety concerns32:02 Career advice for aspiring sports meteorologists35:46 Future of weather forecasting in sports and technology advancementsSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

What if the people telling you AI is going to end the world are the same people selling you the AI that could end the world - and they are doing both at the same time? Erica has been lying awake reading the headlines, thinking about her eight-year-old sleeping down the hall. And today she is naming names, bringing receipts, and taking explicit positions on the AI fear machine, what happens when women are not in the rooms where this technology gets built, and exactly what she thinks we owe the next generation right now.ABOUT THIS EPISODEThis is the spiciest solo episode Erica has ever recorded, and she knew it when she sat down at her kitchen counter to make it. She covers the extinction statement signed by the CEOs of OpenAI, Google DeepMind, and Anthropic - and the fact that they went back to the office and raced each other to build faster. She covers the $140 million super PAC with AI industry money pouring into midterms. She covers NVIDIA, China, and the contradiction at the center of the 'we can't let China win' argument. She covers the Grok image scandal - 4.4 million generated images in nine days, 41% sexualized images of women - and what it tells us about who is not in the product meetings. And she covers the stat that stops her cold: women are 57% of the workers in jobs most likely to be disrupted by AI, and 13% of the C-suite leaders at AI companies. Then she gives you three moves to make this week.INSIDE THE EPISODEShould I Actually Be Concerned About AI? Erica holds both: the AI nerd who sees what this technology can do, and the mom who wants to throw every device in the lake. She sorts the real risks from the manufactured ones and calls out the people making money off of our fear.Who Benefits When We're Scared? When the CEOs selling the product tell you it could end the world, ask one question: who benefits? Fear makes you feel small and leaves it to the tech geniuses. Fear makes them look like the only ones smart enough to save us from the very thing they are selling. That is a damn good business model.The $140 Million Super PAC. Leading the Future has reportedly raised $140 million for the midterms. Its mission: electing people who want AI rules light and one national standard that overrides tougher state laws. Donors include Andreessen Horowitz and the president of OpenAI. The industry warns about extinction. The industry's money builds a nine-figure war chest to keep the rules light.NVIDIA, China, and the Contradiction. For years the rallying cry was that we cannot let China win the AI race - so we have to move fast and keep the rules light. Then the administration said NVIDIA could sell its most powerful chips to Chinese companies, including ByteDance and Tencent, as long as the US gets a 25% cut. The first shipments landed in China this summer.Grok and What Happens When Women Aren't in the Room. xAI rolled out an image editing feature and people immediately used it to digitally undress women and girls from photos found online. In nine days: 4.4 million images generated, 41% sexualized images of women. Any woman in that product meeting could have told them that was coming. Any mom could have told them that.57% Disrupted, 13% in the Room. Women are 57% of the workers in jobs most likely to be disrupted by generative AI. Women hold 13% of C-suite AI roles at AI companies. At the rate we are going, it will take 90 years to reach equal representation in leadership. A girl born today may never see that in her lifetime.Three Moves You Can Make This Week. Start using AI and let people see you use it. Parent it loudly - have the talk with your kids, use it together, tell them what happened with Grok. Follow the money and use your voice - midterms are coming, AI money is pouring into races, opensecrets.org makes it easy. If there is no woman on your company's AI council, get yourself into that room.

Malcolm and Mike review recent news, including a breakdown of approximately 1,850 industry layoffs across several states, notable drug and weapon seizures involving semi-trucks on I-69 in Michigan and I-40 in Arkansas, and upcoming events like the Future of Freight Festival in Chattanooga. Then they're joined by Matthew Muester, Chief Economist at Breakthrough, He talks about the volatile diesel market heading into Q4. He breaks down how geopolitical conflicts, crude oil prices (~$90/barrel), and skyrocketing refining margins ($108/barrel crack spread) have pushed total diesel costs to around $200 per barrel. He also shares insights on Canadian crude imports, the long-term outlook for the Keystone XL project, and expectations for diesel pricing into 2027. Finally they have Jefferson Barr, Chief Marketing Officer at Netstock, who discusses insights from Netstock's latest supply chain report. He explains how small-to-midsize businesses (SMBs) are navigating a complex landscape of simultaneous disruptions—such as shifting lead times, freight costs, and raw material access—and emphasizes how leveraging data analytics helps "star" performers outperform "stragglers" in inventory management. ⁠Watch on YouTube⁠ ⁠Visit our sponsor - KOONER FLEET MANAGEMENT SOLUTIONS⁠ ⁠Subscribe to the WTT newsletter⁠ ⁠Apple Podcasts⁠ ⁠Spotify⁠ ⁠More FreightWaves Podcasts⁠ #WHATTHETRUCK #FreightNews #supplychain Learn more about your ad choices.

Rhonda Kich has spent 20 years in the rooms where deals get done, and she's met heroes who weren't who they claimed to be. Stephen Scoggins and Rhonda talk about finding mentors you can actually trust in a world full of performers. Rhonda is a dealmaker, strategic advisor, host of the Unfiltered podcast, and president of Mentor Box 2.0. She has helped founders, fund managers, athletes, and entertainers get funded, get visible, and get into the right rooms. Now she's rebuilding Mentor Box as a trust platform where every mentor is vetted, peer reviewed, and expected to own their failures. In this episode, you'll hear: Why meeting your heroes can leave you feeling "a little violated," and what to do when a room isn't aligned "Every referral is a loan on your reputation": spotting takers vs. heart-centered people Why posing in front of a rented jet or sports car makes you an imposter Stephen's story of having everything on paper and feeling completely empty How Mentor Box 2.0 vets mentors, and why having no failures disqualifies you The one question that makes Rhonda end a conversation immediately How to build an advisory board before you can afford a team Lion or Lamb: which one cost Rhonda more? It's the Lion and Lamb methodology in action: the boldness to walk away from the wrong rooms, and the humility to ask for help.

For the first time in more than half a century, NASA is preparing to send humans around the Moon, laying the foundation for a sustained lunar presence and the eventual journey to Mars.Just months after the successful completion of Artemis II, Sharon Cobb, Associate Program Manager for NASA's Space Launch System, returns to The TechEd Podcast with a behind-the-scenes look at the engineering, manufacturing, testing, data and emotions that went into the successful Artemis II mission.Sharon shares firsthand stories, like facing a critical hydrogen leak discovered during testing, how NASA solved the problem without rolling the rocket back from the launch pad, and why the mission ultimately achieved an astonishing 99.94% orbital insertion accuracy. She also explains how breakthroughs in additive manufacturing, digital modeling, and systems engineering are transforming the way rockets are designed, built, and tested.Looking ahead, Sharon outlines NASA's vision for NASA's Moon Base the infrastructure needed for a sustained human presence on the lunar surface, and the technologies that will make future missions to Mars possible. Along the way, she offers her perspective on the "Artemis Generation," why systems thinking matters more than ever, and how students can prepare today for careers that may not even exist yet.In this episode, you'll hear:3 skills students need if they want to work at NASAHow 3,800 suppliers across all 50 states help power ArtemisWhy NASA can now simulate missions that once required live testingThe manufacturing breakthrough changing how rocket engines are builtWhat it'll take to achievema sustained presence on the moon (and eventually Mars)3 Big Takeaways from this Episode:1. Artemis II was the product of thousands of engineering decisions made between launches.Between Artemis I and Artemis II, NASA teams stacked and integrated the vehicle, completed multiple rounds of testing, investigated and resolved a hydrogen leak discovered during a wet dress rehearsal, and modified hardware to improve performance. The mission ultimately achieved 99.94% orbital insertion accuracy, validating years of analysis, simulation, testing, and problem-solving across the program.2. NASA's success depends on a nationwide manufacturing ecosystem. The Artemis program relies on 3,800 suppliers across all 50 states to provide the components, materials, and systems required to build and launch its missions. Sharon emphasized that behind every launch are manufacturers, technicians, welders, quality professionals, and skilled tradespeople whose work must meet exceptionally demanding standards because many of these components have only one opportunity to perform.3. The Artemis Generation will build Moon Base and carry humanity farther into deep space. As NASA shifts its focus toward Moon Base, future missions will require the engineers, technicians, program managers, systems thinkers, and manufacturing professionals capable of building lunar infrastructure and eventually enabling missions to Mars. Sharon highlighted multiple pathways into those careers, including internships, two-year technical degrees, certifications, apprenticeships, and traditional engineering programs, emphasizing that there is no single route into a place like NASA.Resources in this Episode:Catch up on the story by starting with episode 1 with Sharon Cobb: From the Moon to Mars: NASA's Artemis Program and the Future of Space ExplorationArtemis ProgramSpace Launch System (SLS)Get access to NASA Career & Internship resources and more on the show notes page: https://techedpodcast.com/cobb2/We want to hear from you!

Have we underestimated what senior living communities have to give the world around them? In this episode of The Future of Community, I sit down with Rob Liebreich, President and CEO of Goodwin Living, to talk about purpose, brain health, loneliness, and the power of being needed. Rob shares the personal story behind StrongerMemory, why cognitive confidence can affect whether someone stays connected to the people around them, and what Goodwin Living is learning by bringing generations together. We also talk about agency, pairing young interns with older adult mentors, and looking beyond the walls of senior living. Because these communities hold so much more than care, they hold experience, wisdom, relationships, and people who still have something to give. And all of it is connected to social health, how we stay connected, find purpose, and know that we matter to others. The Future of Community is presented in partnership with Rendever, whose work is focused on building connection and strengthening social health as we age.

With Russell Warfield.  The election of Zack Polanski to the leadership of the Green Party of England and Wales in 2025 caused a political earthquake. Polanski's first year of leadership transcended the wildest expectations of his supporters: quadrupling the party membership, doubling its polling, winning its first ever parliamentary by-election to return a fifth MP, and delivering the Greens' strongest ever set of local election results.  In the context of one of the most right-wing Labour governments of all time there were acres of political space to its left to occupy. But what are the threats and opportunities now that Keir Starmer has given way to Andy Burnham? Joining us on the show to make sense of this turbulent political moment is Russell Warfield, author of The Green Socialist: Zack Polanski and the Battle for Britain's Future. Russell puts the Green party's recent successes into context and considers its prospects for the future. We talk about the unlikely similarities between Zack Polanski and Nigel Farage, why electoral reform is more urgently needed than ever, and consider the possibility of a Polanski victory in October's Holborn and St Pancras by-election.

Over the last few years, state leaders have put a renewed emphasis on the importance of trade skills -- of making sure our young people are getting opportunities to learn in ways besides traditional higher education. It comes at a good time as nearly 1/4 of current tradespeople are expected to retire soon. In this segment, we want to talk about a report that just came out on the State of America's Skilled Trades Workforce. Maria Flynn, President and CEO of Jobs for the Future, joins Inside Sources to explain the need for more tradespeople.
