Simon and Dan take a break from the usual AI doom talk to focus on the other side of the trade: industries AI is unlikely to disrupt—and may actually strengthen. They discuss why parts of the “real economy” (natural resources, waste collection, skilled trades, and critical infrastructure work) have durable moats tied to physical assets, regulation, and human accountability. In Stocks on Our Radar, Dan revisits Shopify after a sharp drawdown and explains why AI could be a tailwind through payments and backend infrastructure, even if storefront tools get commoditized. Simon breaks down why he started a position in WSP Global, pointing to its backlog, acquisition strategy, and long runway from grid buildouts and electrification tied to AI-driven energy demand.

Send a textFor 25 years, Phil Vassar has written and performed songs that defined an era of country music. But behind the hits like Just Another Day in Paradise, Carlene, and The Sound of a Million Dreams is a story of rejection, resilience, health scares, and hard-earned perspective.This week on Here's What We Know, Phil reflects on the roadblocks that nearly stopped him, the heart attack that changed his outlook, and why he believes songwriters are more like therapists than hitmakers. From owning his own bar in Nashville to outlasting the gatekeepers who said piano players would never work in country music, Phil opens up about what it really takes to build a lasting career.This is a conversation about instinct, grit, healing, and the power of a song to carry you through the hardest seasons of life.In This Episode:Writing Songs Is Therapy“They Said Piano Players Don't Work in Nashville”Building a Following Before a Record DealThe Hits They HatedKnowing When You've Got SomethingSurviving a Heart Attack and StrokeJust Another Day in ParadiseThe Story Behind CarleneThe Sound of a Million DreamsBands, Egos, and Going SoloToby Keith, Vince Gill, and Songwriting BrotherhoodSlowing Down After 25 YearsEnding with Piano ManThis episode is sponsored by:Sterling Oak Cabinetry (Be sure to tell them Gary sent you!)Bio:Phil Vassar is a chart-topping country artist and acclaimed Nashville songwriter whose piano-driven sound helped redefine modern country music. Raised in a home filled with Motown, gospel, bluegrass, and classic rock, Vassar developed an eclectic musical foundation that blends heartfelt storytelling with unforgettable hooks. Influenced by artists like Billy Joel and Elton John, he found his true voice behind the piano, crafting songs that resonate across generations.Over a 25-year career, Vassar has earned two ASCAP Songwriter of the Year awards, ACM's Top New Male Vocalist honors, and scored 10 No. 1 hits including “Just Another Day in Paradise,” “Carlene,” and “Six-Pack Summer.” As a songwriter, he's penned major hits for Tim McGraw, Alan Jackson, Jo Dee Messina, and others, cementing his reputation as one of Nashville's most versatile hitmakers.Now celebrating the 25th anniversary of his breakout success, Vassar continues to tour nationally, blending his classic hits with fresh interpretations and new music. After surviving a life-altering heart attack in 2023, he brings renewed gratitude and perspective to both his life and career.

Send a textHigh Valley has been around …a lot longer than you think! The family band started long before their first album in 2010. We chatted with Brad Rempel about the early days of High Valley, as in when he was just four years old, and where the band is today. High Valley has become a household name across Canadian country music families. From hits like “Grew Up On That”, “Make You Mine”, and “She's With Me”, the band has collected accolades over the years spanning across not just Canada, but the United States as well. They've been nominated for ACM, CMT and JUNO Awards and have earned multiple CCMA Awards. Brad recently scored his first US number one as a songwriter on Josh Ross' “Single Again”. We chatted about this, along with his balance with being a football dad and artist, and the compromise he made very early in his career to be a parent first.The band hits the road for all of March across Canada on the Paradise & Hurricanes tour.- We're so excited to welcome you back for Season 5 of On The Porch with Front Porch Music.

Bouwen, bouwen, bouwen - bij Heijmans kunnen ze er wat van. Het bouwbedrijf verrast met een marge waar de meeste sectorgenoten alleen maar van kunnen dromen: 9,1 procent. Een prestatie - zeker als je bedenkt dat Heijmans minder woningen verkocht. Het aandeel kreeg er tot zo'n 15 procent bij. Hoe flikken ze dat? En kunnen ze de groei vasthouden? Dat gaan we voor je uitzoeken. Hoor je ook over een uitzonderlijke move van Alphabet. Het moederbedrijf van Google komt met een obligatie voor mensen met een wel heel lange levensverwachting: obligaties met een lengte van 100 jaar. Tuurlijk, die kun je gewoon verhandelen. Maar je moet wel heel ver in de toekomst kunnen kijken om daar nu op in te durven zetten. Want in 2126, ís Google er dan nog? En waarom hebben ze eigenlijk geld nodig, als ze meer dan honderd miljard op hun eigen rekening hebben staan? Alphabet brengt 'beleggen voor de lange termijn' in ieder geval naar een geheel nieuw niveau. Verder bespreken we nog: De niet al te teleurstellende cijfers van CM.com Beterschap bij Ubisoft, het gamebedrijf dat niet lang geleden nog 40% onderuit heeft overtrof de verwachtingen PostNL, dat een onderzoek van de ACM aan de broek krijgt vanwege de samenvoeging met Sandd En Anthropic, dat OpenAI wil aftroeven met een beursgang Te gast: Han Dieperink van Auréus. Over de makers: Jelle Maasbach is presentator van BNR Beurs en freelance financieel journalist. Zijn favoriete aandeel om over te praten is Disney, maar daar lijkt hij de enige in te zijn. Sinds de eerste uitzending van BNR Beurs is 'ie er bij. Maxim van Mil is presentator van BNR Beurs en journalist bij BNR, waar hij zich focust op de financiële markten en ontwikkelingen in de tech-wereld.

Jorik Simonides is presentator van BNR Beurs, economieredacteur en verslaggever bij BNR. Hij wordt er vooral blij van als het een keer níet over AI gaat.

De Autoriteit Consument en Markt (ACM) censureert Amerikaanse techreuzen volgens de Justitiecommissie van het Huis van Afgevaardigden van de Verenigde Staten. In een onderzoek van de commissie, die vooral uit rebuplikeinse afgevaardigden bestaat, staat onder andere dat de Europese Digital Services Act (DSA) in feite censuur is. Niels Kooloos vertelt erover in deze Tech Update. Volgens de Justitiecommissie is de ACM slechts een voorbeeld van een Europees overheidsorgaan dat Amerikaanse techreuzen in de weg zit. Ook Nederlandse non-profits zoals Bits of Freedom en Justice for Prosperity worden genoemd. Beide organisaties noemen het rapport van de Justitiecommissie een 'bewuste aanval op onze democratische rechtsstaat'. Het rapport is niet de eerste keer dat de Verenigde Staten zich tegen Europese techwetgeving verzetten. Begin dit jaar werd vijf Europeanen de toegang tot de VS ontzegd, omdat ze betrokken waren of zijn bij onderoeken naar techreuzen.

De helft van het bestaansrecht van de organisatie ligt niet bij de organisatie en haar operatie, maar bij de markt. En wel in het bijzonder de ontwikkelingen in de markt en hoe de organisatie zich daartoe verhoudt. Want niet alle markten zijn hetzelfde, en elke markt bepaalt het succes dat je als organisatie kunt behalen met je acties. Zo werken we in Nederland al een paar decennia richting marktwerking – als middel om de concurrentie te verhogen en daarmee de prijzen te verlagen en de kwaliteit verder te boosten. Het effect is echter – zo constateert de ACM – dat er minder concurrentie komt en de prijzen juist omhoog gaan. Karin en Marischka bespreken verschillende facetten van ontwikkelingen die markten beïnvloeden en de mogelijkheden die je hebt om als organisatie je strategische keuzes te maken.
Waarom krijgt je buurman gratis glasvezel en moet jij 400 euro betalen? En waarom wil KPN nóg een netwerk aanleggen waar er al eentje ligt? Albert Vergeer van Delta Fiber legt de complete glasvezelwedstrijd bloot. Als COO van Delta Fiber zit Albert midden in wat hij “het landjepik” noemt: de strijd om de laatste onverglaasde gebieden in Nederland. In dit gesprek ontleedt hij de bizarre economie achter glasvezeluitrol. Waarom overbouwen kapitaalvernietiging is, maar partijen het tóch doen. Hoe vraagbundeling werkte tot concurrenten briefjes in de bus gingen stoppen. En ja, ook dat virale filmpje van de opdringerige deurverkoper komt voorbij – inclusief wat Delta daaraan veranderd heeft. Randal en Jurian duiken met Albert in de rekensommen die bepalen of jouw straat glasvezel krijgt, de Mexicaanse standoffs tussen providers en gemeentes, en waarom Ziggo binnenkort op Delta’s netwerk gaat leveren. Over Albert Vergeer Albert Vergeer is Chief Operations Officer bij Delta Fiber, de op-een-na-grootste glasvezeleigenaar van Nederland met 1,7 miljoen aansluitingen. Daarvoor was hij Director Internet, Telefonie & TV bij KPN en had hij tijdelijk de CCO-rol voor KPN Mobiel. Hij zit sinds 2017 bij Delta.

De Autoriteit Consument & Markt (ACM) bracht het nieuwe jaarlijkse rapport Staat van de Markt uit. Daarin uit de ACM haar zorgen over de afname van de concurrentie in Nederland in het afgelopen decennium. Volgens macro-econoom Edin Mujagić hangt dat samen met andere fenomenen waar we in Nederland mee kampen, namelijk hoge inflatie en lage arbeidsproductiviteit: ‘Ik maak me hier zorgen over.’ See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Throwback Episode (Originally aired: 10/6/2025) This week, Bunnie sits down with viral country artist Gavin Adcock, who opens up about his wild ride from a cattle farm in Georgia to the national stage. Gavin gets real about his rough-and-tumble upbringing, his parents' chaotic relationship, and the lessons he learned from his dad. He shares how a college suspension over a music post accidentally launched his career—and the early grind that followed, from $300 bar gigs to $500 shows.Nothing's off-limits as Gavin addresses the controversies that came with fame, including his public feud with Zach Bryan and his arrest for reckless driving. He talks about signing with Warner Nashville while keeping full creative control, his excitement for playing Stagecoach, and the importance of staying true to his fans.Gavin also reflects on persistence, passion, and performing for crowds as small as 50 people—all while chasing the dream of headlining stadiums. With an ACM nomination under his belt and new music on the way, he's focused on evolution, authenticity, and connection over clout.Tune in to hear Gavin's story of grit, growth, and good ol' Georgia heart—and find his music everywhere from Spotify to Apple Music to YouTube.Gavin Adcock: WebsiteWatch Full Episodes & More: YouTubeSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Ruimtegebrek op het stroomnet dreigt de woningbouw volledig stil te leggen dit jaar. Gemeenten, provincies en projectontwikkelaars vrezen dat er door nieuwe ACM-regels straks geen ruimte meer is om woningen aan te sluiten. Nu houden netbeheerders nog automatisch ruimte vrij voor nieuwe woonwijken. Energieredacteur Eva Rooijers vertelt waarom dat gaat veranderen. Lees: Grote vrees stilvallen woningbouw door nieuwe stroomnet-regels Diverse ongereguleerde miljardenbeurzen veroveren de Nederlandse cryptomarkt met extreem riskante beleggingen. Daarmee zoeken ze vol de confrontatie met de AFM. De toezichthouder waarschuwde in september voor de illegale cryptobeurs Mexc, maar lijkt nog weinig indruk te maken. Onze crypoteredacteur Pim Brasser vertelt over de risico’s. Lees: Illegale cryptobeurzen hengelen naar Nederlandse belegger ondanks waarschuwing AFM De ceo van Heineken blijft meestal heel lang.

Epic Games, de ontwikkelaar van Fortnite, moet alsnog een boete van de Autoriteit Consument en Markt (ACM) betalen. Dat heeft de rechtbank in Rotterdam woensdag bepaald. Niels Kooloos vertelt erover in deze Tech Update. De boete aan Epic Games bedraagt ruim 1 miljoen euro. Volgens de ACM heeft Epic Games de veelal minderjarige spelers van Fortnite gemanipuleerd om digitale aankopen te doen. In de Item Shop van het spel, waar spelers cosmetische items voor hun personage kunnen kopen met echt geld, stonden bijvoorbeeld aflopende timers die niet klopten. Ook creëerde Epic Games bewust schaarste door de Item Shop iedere 24 uur te verversen. Daarbij was het niet duidelijk welke items er zouden verdwijnen, al dan niet definitief. De ACM noemde dat soort tactieken in 2024 al 'oneerlijke handelspraktijken' en legde daarom een boete aan Epic Games op met de eis dat de Item Shop veranderd zou worden. Daar is Epic Games destijds tegen in beroep gegaan, hoewel het bedrijf wel de Item Shop heeft aangepast.

ohn McEuen is a Grammy-winning multi-instrumentalist, producer, author, and a founding member of the legendary Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, a group that helped bridge bluegrass, folk, and country-rock for mainstream audiences starting in the 1960s. Over a career spanning more than six decades, he has performed thousands of shows, contributed to dozens of albums, and become one of the most influential acoustic musicians in American roots music. His work on banjo, guitar, mandolin, and fiddle has shaped how generations hear traditional music reimagined for modern ears.In 1971, McEuen was the driving force behind the landmark triple album “Will the Circle Be Unbroken,” which brought the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band together with icons like Earl Scruggs, Doc Watson, Mother Maybelle Carter, Roy Acuff, and others for historic cross-generational sessions in Nashville. That project has been recognized as one of the most important country and bluegrass albums ever recorded, helping introduce younger audiences to the classic repertoire and artists who defined American roots music. The album's legacy later inspired his detailed book on the making of those sessions, further cementing his role as both participant and historian of that moment.Beyond the Dirt Band, John has built a rich solo career with multiple albums that showcase his “String Wizard” reputation, blending instrumental firepower with storytelling and cinematic arrangements. His discography includes acclaimed projects like “Made in Brooklyn,” which earned major Americana honors, as well as collaborations with artists ranging from Steve Martin to John Carter Cash and Martha Redbone. As a producer, he also earned a Grammy for Steve Martin's “The Crow,” highlighting his skill on both sides of the glass.McEuen is also an author and storyteller, with his memoir “The Life I've Picked” tracing his journey from Southern California kid to hall-of-fame banjo player working with legends like Linda Ronstadt, Willie Nelson, Johnny Cash, the Allman Brothers, and Bob Dylan. His more recent book and projects around “Will the Circle Be Unbroken” revisit those sessions with photos, stories, and reflections that bring fans right into the circle of players. Onstage and on the page, he brings the same mix of humor, detail, and lived history that makes him such a compelling guest for any music podcast.John's contributions have been recognized with inductions into the American Banjo Museum Hall of Fame and the Traditional Country Music Hall of Honor, along with multiple Grammy, CMA, and ACM honors across his career. He continues to tour, record, and create new projects, bringing stories and songs from more than fifty years on the road to audiences around the world.

Mapping the Landscape of Technical Standards: A Nationwide Review of Medical Schools Interviewees: Carol Haywood, PhD, OTR/L — Assistant Professor, Medical Social Sciences, Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine Chris Moreland, MD, MPH — Professor of Internal Medicine; Division Chief for Hospital Medicine; Interim Associate Chair for Faculty Affairs and Development, Dell Medical School (Comments made in ASL and voiced through interpreters) Interviewer: Lisa Meeks, PhD, MA — Guest Editor, Academic Medicine Supplement on Disability Inclusion in Undergraduate Medical Education Description: In this episode of Stories Behind the Science, we sit down with Dr. Carol Haywood and Dr. Chris Moreland to explore a deceptively powerful document: the medical school technical standards. These quietly influential statements—often tucked deep in an admissions webpage—shape who feels welcome to apply, who gains access, and how institutions imagine the future of their profession. Haywood and Moreland, co-authors of a national analysis featured in the Academic Medicine supplement on Disability Inclusion in Undergraduate Medical Education, unpack what happens when ambiguous language, outdated assumptions, and vague expectations collide with real people making real decisions about their careers. Together, they dig into the nuances of functional vs. organic standards, the importance of clarity for applicants who lack insider knowledge, and the ripple effects of inequitable policies across a learner's entire training experience. What emerges is both sobering and hopeful: a field undergoing change, a growing recognition that words matter, and a roadmap for institutions ready to bring their values into alignment with their practices. The discussion reviews: How technical standards became a gatekeeper—and why revising a single sentence can shift an entire culture. Why students with disabilities read these documents differently—and why that matters for equity. How ambiguity in admissions can deter talented future physicians long before they step foot in a classroom. What schools can do now to create standards that prioritize competence, flexibility, and inclusion. Dr. Haywood brings a researcher's lens and an occupational therapist's creativity to the conversation, illuminating how functional expectations—not assumptions about bodies—should guide medical training. Dr. Moreland shares deeply personal reflections on navigating technical standards as a deaf physician, offering rare insight into how these documents land on applicants with lived experience. This episode invites the audience to imagine a medical education landscape where technical standards do what they should do—define competence, set expectations, and open doors—rather than unintentionally closing them. Bios: Carol Haywood, PhD, OTR/L, is Assistant Professor of Medical Social Sciences in the Determinants of Health Division and core faculty in the Center for Health Services and Outcomes Research at Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine in Chicago, IL. Building from her work as an occupational therapist in acute rehabilitation, she completed a PhD in occupational science at the University of Southern California and a postdoctoral fellowship in health services and outcomes research at Northwestern University. Using qualitative, mixed methods, and community-engaged research approaches, she studies disability in a variety of contexts, as well as health care access, coordination, and quality. She is driven by a vision of health care that facilitates equity for people with disabilities. Chris Moreland, MD MPH, is a professor of medicine, interim associate department chair for faculty affairs, and division chief for hospital medicine at Dell Medical School at UT Austin. He practices clinically as a hospitalist. As a career-long clinician educator, his teaching has been recognized regionally and nationally.

Most think that algorithms are the modern root cause of innovations. But says not only are organizations today powered by data, they innovate through data. With several other colleagues, Marta is bringing data studies back to the forefront of information systems research. She produces workshops, a forthcoming book, and an online bibliography with seminal readings. We talk to Marta about the relationship between data and meaning, representation versus innovation, and whether we all soon live in a hyperreality created through synthetic data that lost all connection to the real-world.

Interviewees: Matthew Sullivan, PhD, Assistant Director of Disability Resources, Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis Suchita “Suchi” Rastogi, PhD. MPH Candidate, University of Illinois Chicago; CEO, Disability in Medicine Mutual Mentorship Program Interviewer: Lisa Meeks, PhD, MA, Guest Editor, Academic Medicine Supplement on Disability Inclusion in Undergraduate Medical Education Description: In this episode of Stories Behind the Science, Dr. Lisa Meeks talks with Matt Sullivan (Washington University School of Medicine) and Suchita “Suchi” Rastogi (UIC; DM3P) about their paper, “Standardized Language for Clinical Accommodations in U.S. Undergraduate Medical Training: Results From a National Modified Delphi Consensus Study,”part of the Academic Medicine supplement on Disability Inclusion in UME. Their conversation explores how a grassroots idea—born from students' lived experiences and practitioners' urgent need for clarity—grew into the first national, evidence-based language guide for clinical accommodations. Together, they unpack how a modified Delphi process brought students, Disability Resource Professionals, and leaders together to build consensus around the precise language that transforms intention into implementation. The trio discuss how language and word choices can make the difference between support and confusion, and how transparent, shared language strengthens trust and access for all. Dr. Meeks, Sullivan, and Rastogi also reflect on the collaborative model that made this project possible—one that centers disabled voices, encourages vulnerability in leadership, and demonstrates how clarity in communication is the foundation of equity. Listeners will come away with practical takeaways for institutions and leaders: audit your accommodation templates, build structured partnerships between DRPs and Student Affairs, and engage students as co-creators in designing accessible clinical environments.

Interviewee: Erick Hung, MD, Professor of Clinical Psychiatry and Associate Dean for Students, University of California San Francisco School of Medicine Interviewer: Lisa Meeks, PhD, MA, Guest Editor, Academic Medicine Supplement on Disability Inclusion in Undergraduate Medical Education Description: In this episode of Stories Behind the Science, Dr. Lisa Meeks talks with Dr. Erick Hung (UCSF) about his paper, “Promoting Disability Inclusion Through an Expanded Conceptual Framework of the Learning Environment,” part of the Academic Medicine supplement on Disability Inclusion in UME. Their conversation explores how a single student story at UCSF sparked a full-scale rethinking of what it means to create an equitable learning environment. Dr. Hung walks us through the journey—from a campus task force to a conceptual framework that now guides systemic change nationwide. Together, they unpack the six domains of the learning environment, including a new and critical addition: the societal layer, which recognizes how broader cultural forces shape belonging, access, and success. The discussion touches on mentorship, student advocacy, technical standards reform, and what it means to move beyond compliance toward culture change. Dr. Hung also reflects on humility in leadership, the importance of systems thinking, and how conceptual frameworks become living roadmaps for equity. Listeners will come away with practical takeaways for schools and leaders—build peer networks, re-evaluate policies through an inclusion lens, and invite students into the co-creation of change.

Interviewer: Lisa Meeks, PhD, MA, Guest Editor, Academic Medicine Supplement on Disability Inclusion in UME. Description: This episode of Stories Behind the Science sits down with Bassel Shanab (Yale School of Medicine), co-first author of “The Intersection of Disability, Race, Ethnicity, and Financial Background on Food Insecurity Among Medical Students,” part of the Academic Medicine supplement on Disability Inclusion in UME. We move beyond prevalence rates to the lived realities behind them—and why hunger so often hides in plain sight in elite training environments. Bassel shares the personal experiences that shaped his questions, the multi-institutional data that sharpened the answers, and the practical moves any school can make now: screen routinely, get cost-of-living estimates right, normalize help-seeking, and invest in evidence-based campus supports. Along the way, we talk flourishing (not just “fixing”), student-led research networks, and why transparency beats stigma every time. Whether you're a dean, DRP, faculty member, or student, this conversation offers a humane roadmap from surviving to thriving.

Interviewer: Lisa Meeks, PhD, MA, Guest Editor, Academic Medicine Supplement on Disability Inclusion in UME. Description: This episode of Stories Behind the Science brings you an intimate conversation with Dr. Kirsten Brown (Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences), Dr. Dionna Bidny (University of Pittsburgh Medical Center), and Dr. Abby Konopasky (Northwell Health), co-authors of Disability in Undergraduate Medical Education in the United States: A Scoping Review, part of the Academic Medicine supplement on Disability Inclusion in Undergraduate Medical Education. Drawing from over 80 publications, their study traces how disability in medical education has too often been framed through deficit and legal models, while leaving intersectionality and the voices of disabled learners largely absent. Together, we explore why this framing matters, what the literature reveals about gaps and progress, and how a critical perspective can re-shape the field. Our guests share the personal and professional motivations behind this ambitious review, the surprises and challenges they encountered, and their hopes for how this work can serve as both roadmap and catalyst. Whether you are a researcher, faculty member, disability resource professional, or student, this episode offers insights into the state of the field and inspiration for charting new directions.
