On this episode of The Outdoor Adventure Lifestyle Podcast, host Rick Saez sits down with Tyler Pierce—a lifelong outdoorsman, mountaineer, and bowhunter whose love for adventure began early among the Colorado Rockies. From summiting his first 14er at age twelve and surviving eight knee surgeries to building his own supplement brand, Panglossian, Tyler shares how the outdoors shaped his resilience, his gratitude, and his drive to keep getting after it. Show Notes What Happened Back when I was 16, I applied for this obscure leadership scholarship—$5K to go live in the backcountry for two months with a bunch of strangers and a couple maps. No phone. No GPS. No “check engine” light for your soul. After 58 days navigating the Rockies, came the solo. Three days. No guides. No group. Just a tarp, a sleeping bag, and a goal: find my way 18 miles across unknown terrain using only coordinates and instinct. I had no idea what I was doing—but I also had no way out. There were no excuses. No parents. No bail-out plan. Just me, some snow-packed passes, and the quiet echo of, “figure it out.” That trip gave me something I couldn't have gotten anywhere else. Gratitude. Grit. And the unshakeable belief that I could handle hard things—even if my boots were frozen solid. Principle We don't grow when things are comfortable. We grow when the path is unclear, the gear is minimal, and the only option is to keep going anyway. The world tells us we need the perfect setup, the best equipment, or the ideal timing. But the truth is—those who succeed in the wild (and in business, and in life) are the ones who move forward even when none of those boxes are checked. Transition Too many folks wait. Wait for more money. More time. The right gear. The perfect plan. But what if the reason you feel stuck isn't a lack of resources—it's the belief that you need them in the first place? That belief is what holds most adventurers, creatives, and would-be founders back. That's Why… That's why this week's episode of the Outdoor Adventure Lifestyle Podcast with Tyler Pierce isn't just a story—it's a callout. A challenge. A reminder that the wild doesn't reward perfection. It rewards persistence. Tyler went from food stamps to founder, from Columbine survivor to elite bowhunter, from frozen boots to building arrows from animals he harvested himself. And through it all? He never waited to feel “ready.” He just kept moving. Call to Action If you've been waiting for the “right time” to chase the thing calling your name—stop. Waiting only gets you older and more frustrated. Listen to this episode and remember what it means to move with purpose, even when the path is hard.

A quick Target trip later we were mostly ready to take on the event at 6,000 feet.  It was a fun  event fueled by great music and it was also for a great cause with it supporting the American Lung Association in Colorado!

What if your "little side-hustle" became the next big brand everyone’s talking about? That’s exactly what happened to Alyce Tran, the ex-lawyer who turned a $5K side project into The Daily Edited, built stores in New York and Singapore. Then, because one cult brand wasn’t enough, she launched In The Roundhouse, the tableware label making dinner look like a fashion moment. In this ep Victoria finds out exactly how Alyce went from corporate girlie with a creative itch to a serial founder of cult-status brands. You'll here the actual money story of how she bootstrapped both brands without investors, made big collab moves on a budget, and learned that million-dollar months don’t magically cure the “not enough” feeling.

In this solo episode, I'm breaking down one of the most important concepts on the path to financial freedom, the difference between saving and investing, and why you need both. I share how growing up with a single mom and grandmother who were natural savers taught me early lessons about money, and how those habits helped me buy my first condo at 22. But I also talk about how saving alone wasn't enough, I needed to learn how to make my money work for me through investing. I walk you through what saving and investing really mean, how they serve different purposes, and how using both intentionally can help you build stability now and freedom later. In This Episode, I Share: How saving creates safety and peace of mind, while investing builds long-term wealth and freedom. Why inflation quietly eats away at your savings if you're not investing. My simple rule of thumb, build your emergency fund, pay off debt, invest consistently, and keep saving for short-term goals. The real difference in growth; how $10K can become about $10.5K in savings but over $46K when invested long term.

In this episode of the Braun Performance & Rehab Podcast, Dan is joined by Madison "Maddy" Foster to discuss her journey as a student studying forensic sciences, as an athlete in cross country and track and field, and beyond. Madison “Maddy” Foster is a senior cross country and track and field athlete at Bowling Green State University, where she's competed on the roster for two Mid-American Conference (MAC) Championships. A Michigan native and former Michigan State University runner, Maddy's journey reflects both speed and self-discovery.

But beyond the times and titles lies a deeper story, one of overcoming mental health struggles, injury setbacks, and performance plateaus that tested her identity and resilience as a Division I athlete.Today, Maddy shares an honest look at the reality of collegiate running, balancing ambition with wellbeing, and the lessons learned from chasing both personal growth and podium finishes.

Send us a textWhat happens when a violinist with zero athletic experience decides to see if she can run a single mile? For Ashley Raines, it sparked a transformation that defied all expectations—including her own.Ashley joins us to share her captivating journey from complete non-athlete to endurance sports competitor. Just a few years ago, she was the person who joked, "If you see me running, someone's chasing me." Today, she's completed multiple marathons across the country, tackled half and full Ironman competitions, and even finished ultraruns—all starting in her late thirties.Her story isn't just inspiring; it's packed with hard-earned wisdom. Ashley candidly shares her early swimming struggles (she couldn't make it across a 25-yard pool without gasping for air), her first triathlon experience (swimming from safety kayak to safety kayak while volunteers cheered her on), and the brutal 97-degree Ironman where she made the cutoff by just 56 seconds.We dive deep into the lessons she's learned along the way: the importance of proper nutrition and hydration (after severe dehydration nearly ended races), how strength training helped her shave 40 minutes off her marathon time in a single year, and why the limiting phrase "I could never" needs to be banished from our vocabulary.As co-host of the Everyday Ironman podcast, Ashley brings a refreshing perspective on endurance sports for regular people balancing training with careers and family responsibilities. Her message resonates whether you're contemplating your first 5K or your fiftieth marathon: we often place arbitrary limits on our capabilities that deserve to be questioned and tested.Ready to challenge what you think is possible? Listen now, and perhaps you'll find yourself asking the same question that changed everything for Ashley: "I wonder if I could?"Listen to Ashley's podcast here:https://open.spotify.com/episode/2SIXh4SuCUGmzPjVrE6DCD?si=CnjrPHGfTMWAgjolgJAZ0w Hydrapatch.com code OTNH10 You can reach out to us at:https://coffeycrewcoaching.comemail: Carla@coffeycrewcoaching.com FB @ Over the Next Hill Fitness GroupIG @coffeycrewcoaching.comand Buy Me a Coffeehttps://www.buymeacoffee.com/Carlauhttps://hydra-patch.com/discount/OTNH20 https://hydra-patch.com/discount/OTNHBOGO?redirect=%2Fproducts%2Fhydrapatch%C2%AEhttps://rnwy.life code: OTNH15https://jambar.com code: CARLA20

Praveen Ghanta, founder of Fraction and former CEO of HiddenLevers, shares how he turned his experience scaling a bootstrapped SaaS company into a fast-growing fractional talent marketplace. After HiddenLevers reached $8M in ARR and sold for over $100M, he realized that senior fractional engineers were the secret to delivering efficiently without expensive full-time hires. Fraction now serves over 100 SaaS clients with a vetted pool of 500 senior U.S.-based engineers and CTOs. Typical engagements run 10–30 hours a week, helping founders tackle scaling challenges in vertical SaaS, AI engineering, DevOps, and legacy system conversions. The company has reached $10M ARR in just three years while keeping half its own team fractional. Praveen explains how clients use Fraction to save costs, speed development, and even prepare for M&A due diligence with fractional CTOs. He also highlights how AI has boosted senior developer productivity by 4x, why U.S.-only context matters, and how fractional-to-full-time hiring often becomes a win-win path. This interview is perfect for SaaS founders at $1M–10M ARR, hitting scaling issues, vertical SaaS leaders needing senior engineers without VC funding, and founders considering AI-powered product features and engineering talent. Key Takeaways Fractional Individual Contributors: Not just execs—senior engineers deliver hands-on code, marketing, and DevOps part-time. AI Productivity Boost: Senior developers using AI tools are delivering 2–4x more than peers without them. Cost Advantage: Starting at $5K/month, founders access senior dev talent without $200K+ full-time salaries. Best ICP Fit: Vertical SaaS companies at $1–10M ARR facing scaling issues or legacy migrations. Developer Productivity: Fraction leveraged its experience with over 100 clients to build DevHawk.ai, a tool that manages fractional talent and delivers results even more efficiently. This Interview Is Perfect For SaaS founders stuck at scaling challenges without a budget for big teams Bootstrappers and practical founders looking for senior engineering firepower Founders facing legacy code, scaling issues, or AI feature rollouts Non-technical founders struggling to manage offshore or junior dev teams Quote from Praveen Ghanta, founder of Fraction “There are a lot of very experienced engineers who get into a senior developer role, but if they're not going to become the manager of the team, there's not a really good and obvious career path for them. “They start to get bored because they know their job inside and out and it's relatively easy for them to keep delivering.  “So working on a startup on the side is actually a way for both for them to sort of enrich their career and see new things and have that creative satisfaction, but at the same time, not take the risk. There are plenty of folks that want to be full-time at the startup, but there's risk in being at a startup.”  Links Praveen Ghanta on LinkedIn Fraction on LinkedIn Fraction website (fraction.work) DevHawk website Podcast Sponsor – Fraction This podcast is sponsored by Fraction.

What does greatness look like? Is it talent, time, or something deeper? In this episode, I sit down with endurance legend and master coach Lisa Smith-Batchen to explore what greatness really means - and how it evolves as we do. With over four decades of coaching and ultra-running behind her, Lisa shares a wisdom-packed perspective on pushing limits, aging with intention, and chasing big dreams, no matter where you're starting. Lisa is the first American to win the grueling Marathon des Sables and the first woman to have completed the Badwater Quad - covering 584 miles across Death Valley! She's run across multiple states for charity, completed a 50-mile ultra in every state, and raised over $1 million for orphanages and clean water projects. But what's just as remarkable is how grounded, present, and purpose-driven she remains through it all. We dig into the transformative power of endurance sports—not just physically, but mentally and spiritually. Lisa opens up about what keeps her coming back to extreme challenges, the emotional shifts that come with aging as an athlete, and how learning to put yourself first might just be the most radical move of all. Whether you're training for your first 5K or simply trying to show up fully in life, this one's for you.

Send us a textSometimes seeing a close relative struggle through chronic conditions can spur someone to take action to help themselves and then others. I often find these stories to be inspiring.  Like the story we had of 250-pound middle schooler Nathan Maze in episode 277, who saw his dad battle obesity and decided not to follow the same path. He dropped the weight, got jacked in the gym, and then as a 15-year-old ran and completed the American Heroes Run marathon. In this episode, I have an uplifting chat with Jonathan Boulware, who lost his mother to obesity-related health issues which propelled his journey to lose weight himself and then help others achieve the same results. Wanting to head off the yo-yoing that many others have undergone in battling their weight, Jonathan studied how to make lifestyle changes by becoming a certified lifestyle coach, personal trainer, and nutrition coach. Following his own success, Jonathan has created many incredible tools to help others, including his 432 Playbook and his book Take Control of Your Body Before It Takes Control of You that demonstrate how to personalize your own lifestyle change plan. It's the same concept David had when he said that once he learned to first change himself, he could then help others change, and it opened the door for him to write his third book, Eat Sh*t and Die, Radical Rehab for Food Junkies and Sugar Addicts, which also gives a blueprint for changing your eating habits. In this fun and entertaining chat, Jonathan gives a lot of very practical insights into how to lose weight and keep it off. He is also putting into action how his own transformation has changed his life by competing soon in the Cal Tri LA Duathlon, which consists of a 5K run, 23-mile bike, and then a 10K run all strung together.Jonathan BoulwareYouCanBeatObesity.comLinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/jonathan-boulwareBill Stahlsilly_billy@msn.comFacebook Bill Stahl and American Heroes Run for race photosInstagram and Threads @stahlor and @we_are_superman_podcastYouTube We Are Superman PodcastSubscribe to the We Are Superman Newsletter!https://mailchi.mp/dab62cfc01f8/newsletter-signupSubscribe to our Substack for my archive of articles of coaching tips developed from my more than three decades of experience, wild and funny stories from my long coaching career, the wit and wisdom of David, and highlights of some of the best WASP episodes from the past that I feel are worthwhile giving another listen.Search either We Are Superman Podcast or @billstahl8

GDP Script/ Top Stories for October 2nd Publish Date: October 2nd PRE-ROLL: From the BG AD Group Studio Welcome to the Gwinnett Daily Post Podcast. Today is Thursday, October 2nd and Happy birthday to Sting I’m Peyton Spurlock and here are your top stories presented by KIA Mall of Georgia. Piedmont Eastside hosting second annual Rock the Ribbon event Spooky Spirits 5K set for Oct. 18 in Suwanee Comedian Bert Kreischer coming to Gwinnett's Gas South Arena Plus, Leah McGrath from Ingles Markets on cereals All of this and more is coming up on the Gwinnett Daily Post podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen daily and subscribe! Break 1: Ingles Markets 7 STORY 1: Piedmont Eastside hosting second annual Rock the Ribbon event For the second year, Piedmont Eastside Medical Center is inviting the community to “Rock the Ribbon,” a special event focused on breast cancer awareness. Set for Oct. 23, from 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m., the event will take place in the Breast and Diagnostic Center lobby (Medical Plaza 1, 1700 Tree Lane, Suite 100, Snellville). It’s all part of Breast Cancer Awareness Month. The lineup includes breast cancer survivor and advocate Silvia Garcia as the keynote speaker, along with diagnostic radiologist Dr. M. Aho sharing insights on early detection. Snellville Mayor Barbara Bender will kick things off, and at 12:45, Garcia will lead a caregiver support workshop in Suite 230. STORY 2: Spooky Spirits 5K set for Oct. 18 in Suwanee Dust off your sneakers, grab your costume, and maybe—just maybe—prepare for a cocktail or two, because the Spooky Spirits 5K is haunting Suwanee’s Town Center Park on Oct. 18. This isn’t your average 5K. Think costumes, cocktails, and a whole lot of fun, brought to you by the folks behind the Beer Chaser 5K and sponsored by Southeast Cold. Whether you’re chasing a PR or just strolling with your cocktail-loving crew, this event’s got something for everyone. Here’s the twist: runners can choose to stop at five Spirit Stations along the scenic Suwanee Creek Greenway for 3-ounce cocktail samples—or power through nonstop. Either way, there’s a full cocktail waiting at the finish line (for the 21+ crowd, of course). Costumes? Absolutely. Prizes for Best Female, Male, and Group Costumes will keep the Halloween vibes alive. Plus, every runner gets a long-sleeve T-shirt, medal, and souvenir glass—because bragging rights are a must.

Before you know it, you’re knee-deep in wrapping paper and wondering how your credit card bill got so high. Americans, on average, drop $1,200 on holiday gifts each year, according to the National Retail Federation. But Georgia Gwinnett College business professor Dr. Cathy McCrary says a little planning now can save you a lot of stress—and money—later. Her advice? Start simple: Make a list of who you’re buying for. Jot down gift ideas and ballpark prices. Set a savings goal and stick to it. McCrary also suggests breaking your savings into manageable chunks—like setting aside a bit from each paycheck—and even opening a separate account to keep things organized. STORY 5: Tourism sets new record in Georgia Georgia was buzzing last year—tourists, business travelers, you name it. A record 174.2 million visitors poured into the state in 2024, spending a jaw-dropping $45.2 billion. That’s 4% more than the year before, according to Gov. Brian Kemp. Kemp, speaking at a tourism conference in Savannah, credited Georgia’s charm: its mountains, beaches, and everything in between. Business travel was booming too, with 17 million domestic visitors dropping $4.6 billion on conventions and meetings. Tourism, the state’s second-largest economic driver, even saved households $1,285 in taxes, thanks to $5.1 billion in government revenue. We’ll be right back.

“We're not concerned at all” about the government shutdown, Ed Siddell says. “Short term, there's going to be a little bit of pain, but long term it will benefit the economy.” He discusses how the Fed's reliance on BLS data may “put everything on hold” for rate cuts. He is bullish on gold and thinks it can hit as high as $5K next year. His stock picks right now include API Group (APG), Lowe's (LOW) and the SPDR Gold Shares ETF (GLD).======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – / schwabnetwork Follow us on Facebook – / schwabnetwork Follow us on LinkedIn - / schwab-network About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about

Every runner thinks they understand tempo runs, but 90% are doing them completely wrong and sabotaging their race goals.Everyone talks about tempo runs, but no one can agree on what they actually are. This episode ends the confusion for good by breaking down the real-world definition and purpose of this crucial workout. You'll learn exactly how to find your personal tempo pace, why it's the secret weapon for marathon success, and how to program it into your training without hitting a wall. Finally understand how to train smarter, recover better, and build the durable speed that leads to a massive new personal best.Key TakeawaysTempo runs teach your body to hold a strong, steady pace for a long time. They are especially important for marathon training because you can't practice running the full race distance.These runs feel great but are secretly draining your energy stores more than faster workouts. You need extra recovery days afterward to avoid burning out.You don't need a lab test to find your tempo pace.

[3:06] I've linked in this episode's show notes to a wonderful obituary from Podnews®, about his career, starting with his time in the Navy up to launching his own podcast, and writing Podcasting: The Do It Yourself Guide, from Wiley Publishing in 2005.

Jim Swanke, welcome to RIMScast! [5:38] When Jim was in high school, he competed in forensics, in extemporaneous speaking. He did very well. He did well at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, and it got put in the newspaper. WLDY, in Ladysmith, Wisconsin, saw it in the newspaper and contacted him. [6:03] They were looking for a radio jock to “spin vinyls,” do some DJing, and read sports and news. That job helped Jim get into the University of Wisconsin-Madison. [6:21] Jim studied actuarial science and risk management. He went into the Bachelor's program, the MBA program, and the graduate program in risk management, insurance, and corporate finance. [6:40] Jim was hired by the Wyatt Company and did lots of feasibility studies. After 42 years at Willis Towers Watson, he retired. Now he teaches at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. [6:57] Broadcasting set Jim on his path. He says that everything about what we do in the captive and risk management area is about communication. If you're not communicating, listening, helping out, and building stuff, you're not going to be a success. [7:28] When Jim was a DJ at WLDY, they played different kinds of music. On Sundays, he played polka music. On Saturdays, it was country western, and Monday through Friday, it was rock music. Rock music is what he enjoys. At the top of every hour, he did the news and weather. [8:13] Justin recalls his own career. He was just waiting for podcasting to be invented, then he was able to make it all work out. [8:31] Jim worked with captives at Willis Towers Watson. He is quoted in a new LineSlip paper, “The Future of Captive Insurance: Governance, Technology, and Performance Optimization.” Justin saw his name there and thought it would be good to have him on RIMScast. [8:53] Jim described captives as a lifeline during extreme market conditions, comparing today's hard market to the turbulence of the 1980s. Jim tells what makes captives effective under hard conditions. Captives allow organizations to control their own destiny. [9:20] When you're in a hard market, having a captive allows you to take premiums that you normally pay to a commercial insurance carrier and put them into your captive insurance company. A captive is a subsidiary of the captive owner. [9:41] Most of the Fortune 500 companies in the United States have a captive. It allows them to arbitrage whatever's going on in the insurance marketplace. When we're having a difficult market, they put more of their premiums into the captive and rely on the captive more. [9:58] When the market softens, carriers may provide insurance at premiums that are lower than the expected losses. Organizations will buy commercial insurance all the time when the premiums are less than their projected losses. [10:14] Depending on where it is in the market, a captive has a role in an organization's risk management program. [10:27] Jim says a lot of organizations have looked to captives since 2020. We were in the midst of the pandemic, with all kinds of economic hardship. The insurance industry was in despair, as well. A lot of insurance companies cut back on the limits they were willing to offer. [10:49] Insurance companies put additional exclusions onto their insurance, so organizations had to rely on their own sophisticated ways of financing their losses. If they hadn't set up a captive, they set up a captive. If they had a captive in the past, they re-engineered it to do more. [11:15] They also used their captives to access the reinsurance marketplace. Reinsurance is insurance for insurance companies. A captive can be used as a platform to access reinsurers. [11:37] Even in difficult markets, having reinsurers involved created more competition, provided more limits, and there was more flexibility in the coverage terms. [11:48] That was when the pandemic was going on, which triggered the hardening of the market and the lack of availability of insurance. Organizations with captives relied on them and did more. Organizations without captives had captive feasibility studies done and formed captives. [12:09] Jim says the CEO of a captive should be a senior person who will monitor what's going on, fairly senior in the organization. It's not a full-time position. It takes three or four hours a month, plus board meetings. [12:46] A captive is required to have a captive manager, who is an accountant. They keep the books and interface for the captive with the regulator. The President or CEO of the captive relies on the captive manager to do a lot of the daily work. [13:09] Jim says you need a senior person involved so people take the captive seriously. The senior person is going to be the driver in reducing the severity of loss through loss prevention and loss reduction. Having a senior person is so important to the success of the captive. [13:40] There are lots of considerations when you're looking to make changes to your captive. Changes could include adding emerging types of risks, like cyber risk. If you're a hospital, a lot of medical malpractice captives have been hugely successful and have grown surplus. [14:08] Healthcare institutions are passing on some of their capitated risk exposures into their captives because they've done quite well with their medical malpractice. These risks are not correlated with each other, so there is a diversification benefit. [14:22] As you look to make these changes, you need to look at increasing risk assumptions, different attachment points on reinsurance, and changing your investment policy. You have lots of levers, and if you make changes, you need to analyze what the impact will be on your captive. [14:52] Jim talks about leaning into technology. Before 9/11, we didn't have the sophisticated software we've created in the last few years. [15:06] To look at covering all the possibilities and changing your captives, from adding new coverages to reinsurance reattachment points, was a monumental amount of actuarial work to figure out how to optimize your captive. [15:19] Recently developed software looks at all the possibilities in terms of changing your captive to optimize what you're doing. 20 years ago, Jim would spend months doing the actuarial work, working with an investment bank and charging them heavy fees. [15:39] Now, with new software, what took Jim months and months to do can be done in a matter of two to three days. The productivity today, in terms of optimizing your captive, is far greater than it was 20 years ago, because of the software that has been developed. [15:55] Jim likes that the software looks at all the risks and how these risks interact with one another. Looking at risks in a captive holistically is very important because many of these risks are hardly correlated with one another. [16:15] Looking at risks holistically, you can figure out the diversification benefit of having all of these risks within your captive, which has a major impact on the amount of economic capital that your captive will need to maintain. This software has been a game-changer. [16:34] RIMS Events! On October 1st through the 3rd, the RIMS Western Regional Conference will be held in North San Jose at the Santa Clara Marriott.

[18:08] In the spirit of it being September 30th, which is International Podcast Day, let's return to our interview with Jim Swanke! [18:22] Jim is the Director of the Risk Management and Insurance MBA at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. The curriculum includes technology, AI, and automation. In his classes, Jim is using the new software he discussed earlier. [18:46] Jim taught a class the day before on the principles of risk management. He talked about how risks are interrelated with each other and how you need to analyze them holistically, figuring out how they are correlated, not in siloes. [19:13] The holistic view will give you the best answer in terms of the economic capital that will be required to put into your captive. If you're analyzing risks silo by silo for each risk, that will lead you to having more economic capital in your captive than you need. [19:35] Jim has learned, in 42 years of consulting, that the CFOs in these organizations don't want to trap cash in their captives. Teaching this software to this new generation of students, they will be able to step into the roles of captive managers that the industry will need. [20:07] We're at the tip of the iceberg with AI. We're still learning in Academia what the power of AI is going to be. Jim foresees AI being very important in handling claims and in underwriting. [20:30] AI will allow commercial insurance companies to have a better way of doing their pricing and making decisions on whether or not risks should be accepted. It will also be beneficial to captives. [20:43] Jim thinks AI will advance the technology far ahead. We're just beginning to touch on some of the advantages within the insurance industry and within captives. [21:05] Jim started teaching in 2011. When University of Wisconsin-Madison Professor Dan Anderson retired, Jim was chosen to teach a class on sustainability that was started by Professor Anderson. He has taught it since 2011. [21:41] At the time, some students did not think anything was going on with climate change. A couple of students stood up in class and said all of this was just made up. It was a fantasy. [22:03] Today, when Jim goes into class, students are there a half-hour early and stay late. They are very connected and working together to figure out how to reduce CO2 emissions to slow down the heating of the planet and the extreme weather events that are coming more often. [22:24] The class has evolved over the years, and the students are more engaged than they ever have been. [22:33] The students from the University of Wisconsin-Madison were the winners of the Spencer-RIMS Risk Management Challenge at RISKWORLD 2025 in Chicago. Jim knows all of those students and had a couple of them in his class yesterday. [23:04] The students won with the Huntington, West Virginia case study, a six-month project. Huntington is on the Ohio River, and with extreme weather events, flooding has become a big issue in that community. They competed with students around the world to solve the issue. [23:49] Each school's team came up with things that could be done and conducted an analysis on what they thought was the best way of handling it. The University of Wisconsin-Madison's team focused on resiliency with levees and dikes to hold back the flooding. [24:27] The four Wisconsin students presented their paper and won, out of 61 schools competing. The University of Wisconsin-Madison received $10K. The second-place university, DePaul, received $7.5K, and the third-place school, IIRM Hyderabad (past year winner), got $5K. [25:04] The University of Wisconsin-Madison team entered two other contests last year and won them both. The CICA Captive competition involved case studies around Kaneka captives. It required an essay and a PowerPoint deck. [25:52] The MBA students entered the A.M. Best competition for insurance solutions to a global issue. The students used a combination of parametric and indemnity triggers to provide insurance to the disadvantaged in the Caribbean and Latin America. [26:23] If there was hurricane damage, it would trigger a parametric to allow an amount of money to be paid immediately to these disadvantaged families. Then there would be the indemnity insurance that would look at the actual losses and true them up to the loss amount. [26:49] It involved the combination of parametrics and conventional indemnity insurance, which was noteworthy and probably pushed the team over the top. [27:11] The professor who was the advisor in the Spencer Challenge is Carl Barlett. Carl is an attorney by training, and he has the energy to work with bachelor's students. He's graduated hundreds of people out of his program over the last four or five years. [27:59] The University has Career Fairs where 60 or 70 companies will come to meet with students. That's a credit to Carl. Not a lot of companies will come to a university to meet with students. Because of the program he put together, lots of organizations want to hire students. [28:21] The University of Wisconsin-Madison business school is typically ranked number 1. [28:31] A Final Break! The Spencer Educational Foundation's goal to help build a talent pipeline of risk management and insurance professionals is achieved, in part, by its collaboration with risk management and insurance educators across the U.S. and Canada. [28:50] Since 1999, Spencer has awarded over $2.9 million to create more than 570 Risk Management Internships. The Internship Grants application process is now open through October 15th, 2025. [29:06] To be eligible, risk managers must be based in the U.S., Canada, or Bermuda. A link to the Internship Grants page is in this episode's show notes. You can always visit SpencerEd.org, as well. [29:19] Let's Get Back to Our Interview with Jim Swanke of the University of Wisconsin-Madison! [29:46] Jim tells his students that we don't know today what the emerging risks are going to be. What we need to do is design our risk management program and keep our eyes and ears open to what is going to happen next. [30:04] Jim cites The Black Swan, by Nassim Nicholas Taleb. It gets into what we need to do as people of risk management and societies to try to identify the emerging risks that will impact us going forward. [30:21] In risk management, we look at the past to try to project what's going to happen in the future. We were caught by the pandemic. Very little business interruption insurance was offered. If we had been forward-thinking, we would have thought about coverages for the emerging risks. [31:19] An emerging risk after 9/11 was that insurance companies put exclusions on their insurance policies, excluding terrorism. The Federal Government passed the Terrorism Risk Insurance Act (TRIA) and offered it as a backstop to insurance companies. [31:55] Anybody with a captive could access that reinsurance through the U.S. Treasury, using their captive insurance company. [32:23] Jim sees more employee benefits going into captives. The advantages you have in the P&C area are also in place for employee benefits. Organizations with large workers' compensation self-insurance programs are putting excess workers' compensation into captives. [32:57] Jim says you need to be nimble and on your toes. Emerging risks are going to come out over the next 10 to 15 or 20 years. Keep your eyes and ears open so when they emerge, you can deal with them to reduce the frequency and severity of loss and see how to finance them. [33:19] Jim highly recommends reading The Black Swan. It's a good way to begin to think about how you should think about emerging risks. [33:42] Jim says school is going really well. One thing he noticed this year is the diverse nature of his students. There are more disciplines within the risk management area that people are interested in. [33:56] In class recently, Jim had a group that was in the investment banking area, a group that was in HR, and a couple of students from China. There was a broad diversity in the class. [34:16] It enriches the conversation to have people coming from different places with different backgrounds and different educational experiences. It shows the power of having diversity in the classroom. It's exciting. [34:32] The class will write papers on Enterprise Risk Management and talk about captives, and more. They'll compete in the CICA Captive Competition again, to maintain their number one rating there! They're off to a great start! It's nice to see students so highly energized! [34:53] Jim says the future is bright with the students graduating from the Wisconsin School of Business at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. [35:22] Justin and others have liked Jim's broadcasting voice. Jim thanks Justin for commenting on it. [35:55] Jim's time as a DJ was 50 years ago. He recalls two or three instances of hot mikes, when some of the FCC's seven deadly words may have been spoken. He says nobody wants that, but it was a real learning experience. [36:29] Jim recalls when the studio tower was hit by lightning. Jim was alone in the radio station when it happened. Lightning bolts were flying around the building after the tower got hit. The station went off the air, and Jim had to figure out a way to put it back on the air. [36:58] Jim highly recommends to young people, if you get an opportunity to get involved with radio or TV, give it a shot, because it's a lot of fun! Justin ties it to podcasting and video blogging. [37:42] Jim likes all the music of 1976 and didn't have a favorite album. He likes Deep Purple and Bob Seger. He says there's no better songwriter than Bob Seger. There was a diversity of good music going out at that time. It was a wonderful time to be working in a radio station. [38:47] Justin is a father of two young people under 12 who like to listen to classic rock. “Dancing in the Moonlight,” by King Harvest, is a greatest hit in the family. They love Van Morrison. [39:56] On the subject of podcasting, Jim thinks there is an opportunity to develop content that helps the everyday American with their personal insurances, like homeowners, auto, health, life, and how they buy their insurances. [40:45] In class recently, the MBA students, the brightest and best, designing plans for New York investment banks and worldwide financial institutions, told Jim that they had questions about what to buy in auto policies and homeowners policies. [41:07] Jim states that an insurance podcast for the everyday American is something the industry needs to be doing. Justin suggests that members of the global RIMScast audience could pick up the baton and get to work! [41:27] Maybe it becomes part of the coursework for a class like Jim's. It could be part of a challenge, like the Spencer-RIMS Risk Management Challenge. [41:48] Jim says being able to talk about this with graduate students gives them some familiarity with what risk is, in terms of the instability of results. They can relate to it because they need to buy an auto policy or a homeowners policy. [42:03] While these coverages don't match up perfectly with what's going on in the commercial insurance marketplace, learning about them gives students a sense of what insurance is about, what risk management is about, and how to reduce the frequency and severity of losses. [42:22] Jim, it has been such a pleasure to speak with you and to pick your brain on risk management education, broadcasting, and music! Thank you so much for joining us here on RIMScast! [42:33] Good luck to you and your students at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, as you look to the 2026 competitions. I can only imagine they're going to do great things!

The World Athletics Championships marathon in Tokyo was always going to be a test of patience, heat management, and guts and two American women rose to the occasion.For over an hour, Susanna Sullivan was the story of the race. A sixth-grade math teacher from Virginia, she surged to the front by 5K, running alone through the streets of Tokyo with nothing but the sticky, humid air and a clock for company. By halfway, she had built a 63-second lead on the pack of global stars behind her. And when they finally came for her, Sullivan didn't panic. She held her rhythm, managed the late miles and battled all the way to the line for fourth place in 2:28:17 — just seconds away from becoming the third American woman ever to medal in a World Championship marathon.Alongside her, Jess McClain was running her own masterclass in composure. McClain tucked in behind Sullivan early, endured the surging heat, and stayed locked in when the race splintered. Running smart and steady, McClain delivered the best global performance of her career, finishing eighth in 2:29:20. In a field stacked with some of the fastest women of all-time, McClain proved she belongs.Peres Jepchirchir and Tigist Assefa settled gold and silver with a final-lap sprint inside Japan National Stadium. Uruguay's Julia Paternain stunned the world with a historic bronze. But it was Sullivan and McClain who gave Team USA its heartbeat. Two working professionals, two fearless racers.____________Host: Chris Chavez | ⁠⁠⁠@chris_j_chavez on Instagram⁠⁠Guest: Susanna Sullivan & Jess McClain | @susannasullivan4 on Instagram & @jesstonn on InstagramProduced by: Jasmine Fehr |⁠ ⁠⁠⁠@jasminefehr on Instagram⁠⁠⁠____________PRESENTED BY ASICSFor the third consecutive year, CITIUS MAG is proud to partner with ASICS for our global championship coverage.
