We're bringing back the episode where we dig into decades-old crop-content studies to quantify exactly how much of a turkey's diet is acorns, and what the trends in declining oak forests mean for the future of wild turkeys.   Resources: Alexander et al.

Throughout Scripture we bump into God-plans that cause us to stop and think, ‘We wouldn't do it like that.' But each time this happens, we're prompted to recall God saying through Isaiah, that He knows better than we do and that we should expect this pattern to continue (otherwise stated, He's God and we are not). We've been surprised as we looked at the choosing of disciples, at Jesus' death and resurrection, and then at the empowerment of the twelve for the critical work of Church startup; all curious, foreign-to-us types of decisions. This series of Divine ‘unexpecteds' rolls on as we keep reading in Acts.

In April 2026, Dr. Bryan Paul, Curricular Fellow for ACTA's College Debates and Discourse Alliance, joined Aimee Guidera, former Secretary of Education for the Commonwealth of Virginia, to organize and lead a student-driven civil debate at Harvard University. Sponsored by Harvard's Institute of Politics, where Secretary Guidera served as a Spring 2026 Resident Fellow, this Braver College Debate centered on a timely and critical question: "Has the United States lived up to its promises in the Declaration of Independence?" This episode captures Dr. Paul's conversation with Secretary Guidera immediately following the debate.

Concejales de San Carlos lograron que el Tribunal Electoral Regional (TER) de Ñuble acogiera la acción de inhabilidad presentada contra el exalcalde Williams Gastón Suazo Soto, quien no podrá ejercer cargos ni empleos públicos durante los próximos cinco años.La sentencia, dictada este 17 de julio en Chillán, resuelve dos requerimientos acumulados. El primero fue presentado en mayo de 2025 por los concejales César Ortiz Gallegos, Rubén Ortiz Cerda y Jorge Rodríguez Lagos, junto al actual alcalde Rubén Méndez Venegas. El segundo, en junio de ese mismo año, por los concejales Daniel Pizarro Uribe y Roberto Caro Yáñez.El Tribunal, integrado por Paula Morales Rojas y Eduardo Peñafiel Peña, tuvo por acreditados varios cargos en contra del exjefe comunal. Entre ellos, la entrega de un Acta de Traspaso de Gestión incompleta al término de su mandato, sin la firma del Secretario Municipal ni del Director de Control Interno, quienes advirtieron formalmente la falta de antecedentes exigidos por ley.También se acreditó que Suazo Soto no llamó a concurso público para nombrar al Jefe del Departamento de Salud Municipal, manteniendo a un funcionario como suplente por más de tres años, y que incumplió su deber de supervigilancia en la compra de una máquina bacheadora, adquisición cuestionada por un informe de Contraloría Regional de Ñuble que constató pago por equipamiento no conforme a las especificaciones técnicas y participación indebida de la empresa adjudicataria en la elaboración de las bases de licitación. El fallo agrega un cuarto cargo relacionado con contrataciones directas reiteradas, sin licitación pública, en arriendos de inmuebles municipales por montos superiores a 200 UTM.Para el Tribunal, cada una de estas irregularidades, y con mayor razón en su conjunto, configura notable abandono de deberes e infracciones graves a la probidad administrativa. Por economía procesal, los jueces no se pronunciaron sobre el resto de los cargos incluidos en los requerimientos.La sentencia aún no está firme. El propio fallo establece que la inhabilitación de cinco años regirá recién desde que quede firme y ejecutoriada, momento en el que además se comunicará a la Contraloría General de la República. Suazo Soto tiene la posibilidad de recurrir en contra de esta resolución, por lo que la sanción podría modificarse o confirmarse en una etapa posterior.La sentencia no condena en costas al exalcalde, por estimar que existió motivo plausible para litigar.

This week, I had the pleasure of speaking with my new colleague, Richard J. Fehir, Ph.D., Senior Chemist/Regulatory Scientist, at B&C and its consulting affiliate, The Acta Group (Acta®), to discuss his career at the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and how he is now deploying his considerable scientific chops at B&C and Acta. Rick is a bit unusual, as he has worked for both EPA's Office of Pollution Prevention and Toxics (OPPT) and Office of Pesticide Programs (OPP), which is a very opportune combination for our clients!

ACTA's Nick Down interviews Michigan State University (MSU) Board of Trustees member Mike Balow. The aftermath of an emergency meeting to revise MSU's trustee code of ethics has embroiled the Board in controversy. The revised ethics code includes a "loyalty pledge" that limits trustee speech, with threats to sanction and publicly censure any trustee who refuse to sign. Trustee Balow and one colleague refused to sign the loyalty pledge. Since then, the dissenting trustees have faced intense public pressure, including doxxing and social media threats. Trustee Balow tells his side of the story of what really happened at the emergency meeting, and why he categorically opposes the new mandate.  Note: Since this recording, MSU president Kevin Guskiewicz has reversed his decision to depart MSU and will remain on as the university's president.

Por estos tiempos se cumplen los 250 años de la "Declaración de Independencia de los Estados Unidos", firmada el 4 de julio de 1776 en Filadelfia. Y para poder entender el contenido de esta celebración en este capítulo viajamos al siglo XVIII —un siglo de revoluciones entrelazadas, de ideas ilustradas que cruzaron a ambos lados del Atlántico y de Trece Colonias que apostaron a pensarse como una sola nación— para entender cómo varios procesos de reflexión y representación política terminaron por dar origen a uno de los textos fundacionales de la democracia moderna y el Estado de derecho. También analizamos los legados y las contrariedades presentes en el Acta de Independencia de las Trece Colonias. Notas del episodio El siglo XVIII como proceso global: Un recorrido por el siglo de las revoluciones científicas, política e industrial— y por el mundo Atlántico que conectó ideas, imprentas y plazas de mercado de un extremo a otro del océano. Los cimientos filosóficos: De la revolución científica a la Ilustración: cómo Locke, Rousseau y Montesquieu trasladaron la idea de leyes naturales al terreno político y sentaron las bases del contrato social y la separación de poderes. Montesquieu y la separación de poderes: Una mirada a la vida y la obra de Charles-Louis de Secondat, barón de Montesquieu, y a la teoría que dividió el poder en ejecutivo, legislativo y judicial. De la protesta a la ruptura: El Stamp Act, el boicot al té, el Boston Tea Party y las Actas Intolerables: la crisis fiscal entre Gran Bretaña y las Trece Colonias que transformó el reclamo político en confrontación abierta. «Sentido Común» de Thomas Paine: El panfleto que Thomas Paine publicó en enero de 1776 y que, con un lenguaje sencillo y directo, convenció a buena parte de la opinión pública colonial de que la ruptura con la Corona británica era inevitable. El texto de la Declaración de Independencia: La versión en español del documento firmado el 4 de julio de 1776, redactado principalmente por Thomas Jefferson y editado por Benjamin Franklin y John Adams.

This week, I had the pleasure of speaking with Dr. Richard E. Engler, Director of Chemistry for B&C and The Acta Group (Acta®), our consulting affiliate, and Ryan N. Schmit, Of Counsel with B&C and Senior Regulatory Consultant with Acta, about the ever-tricky topic of confidential business information (CBI) -- what is it, how to protect it, and steps to take to avoid losing it. As listeners may know, the protection afforded certain information claimed CBI begins to sunset today, June 22, 2026, because of changes to the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) signed into law ten years ago today with enactment of the Frank R. Lautenberg Chemical Safety for the 21st Century Act. Certain claims need to be substantiated to continue being shielded from public disclosure. Our discussion today focuses on this change in the law, how the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has operationalized the substantiation process, and what TSCA stakeholders need to know to preserve their CBI claims if they wish to extend protection for another ten years.

ACTA's chief of staff and SVP, Armand Alacbay, interviews Max Schanzenbach, the Seigle Family Professor of Law at Northwestern University School of Law. Professor Schanzenbach's work focuses on the intersection between economy and law, and he recently coauthored multiple papers on university divestment policies. In this conversation, he explains the crucial nuances that most discussions about universities divesting from Israel fail to consider. 

Slechte adem is niet alleen een klinisch probleem, het is vooral ook een sociaal en soms zelfs psychologisch probleem. We zijn allemaal wel eens onzeker over hoe we uit onze mond ruiken. Maar hoe maak je dit bespreekbaar, wanneer is het een echt probleem en, misschien nog wel het belangrijkste onderdeel van dit gesprek, wat kun je eraan doen? In podcast #12 stonden we al eens stil bij dit onderwerp. In deze aflevering gaan we meer in op de behandeling en de rol die mondspoelmiddelen hierin kunnen spelen. Adjunct-hoofdredacteur Maurits de Kuijper gaat hierover in gesprek met promovenda Maud Joosstens en dr. Eveline van der Sluijs, beiden verbonden aan het ACTA.

ACTA's Academic Affairs Fellow Veronica Bryant is joined by Dr. Mark T. Mitchell, Dean of Academic Affairs at Patrick Henry College as well as the author of numerous books on political theory.

Aidala, Senior Government Affairs Consultant at B&C and Vice President, Policy and Government Affairs, at Acta, to discuss the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) significant role in combating pathogens like those spreading the highly virulent Ebola virus and Hantavirus. Both Dana and Jim have extensive expertise in how EPA deploys its authority under the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA) to protect the public's health from these and other deadly pathogens. We discuss how EPA reviews, approves, and regulates products to combat these pathogens, how EPA has modernized its process to meet the demands of the moment, and why the public health products EPA regulates under FIFRA are more essential now than ever.

For decades, one of the biggest challenges of sending humans to Mars hasn't just been getting there, it's getting back. Under current mission plans, astronauts could spend nearly three years completing a round trip to the Red Planet. The journey to Mars alone typically takes seven to ten months, and crews then have to wait for Earth and Mars to align again before returning home. But now, an accidental discovery published in the journal Acta astronautica and inspired by asteroid trajectories suggests that future Mars missions might one day take less than a year-round trip. The idea came from a scientist who was studying near-Earth asteroids - specifically how scientists estimate their trajectories when first discovered. One asteroid caught his attention: 2001 CA21. Early calculations suggested the asteroid followed an unusual orbital path that crossed both Earth's and Mars' orbital regions. Later observations refined the asteroid's true trajectory, and the original estimates were essentially discarded. But the scientist noticed something fascinating hidden inside those early calculations. The geometry of the asteroid's path hinted at an ultra-fast route between Earth and Mars. Mars is much farther from the sun than Earth, and the planets are constantly moving around the sun at different speeds. To save fuel, spacecraft usually travel along carefully timed transfer orbits that take advantage of planetary alignment. These efficient routes are slower but practical. The problem is timing. Earth and Mars only line up properly for these fuel-efficient missions roughly every 26 months. Missing the return window means astronauts could be stranded waiting for another alignment. Using the new asteroid-inspired geometry, the researchers calculated that an extremely fast route to Mars could theoretically take as little as 34 days. The spacecraft would need to travel at around 32.5 kilometres per second which is far beyond the capabilities of current rockets. Also, arriving at Mars would be even more challenging. The spacecraft would hit the Martian system traveling so fast that current landing technologies couldn't safely slow it down. So while the 34-day mission is mathematically possible, it remains impractical with today's technology. Rather than focusing on the impossible extreme case, the researchers explored whether similar geometric paths could work during future Mars alignments using technology that may exist in the near future. And one opportunity stood out: the 2031 Mars opposition. According to the calculations, astronauts could potentially complete a round trip to Mars in about 153 days (roughly five months), or a lower-energy version lasting around 226 days (about 7.5 months) That's still dramatically shorter than the multi-year missions currently envisioned. The proposed mission profile would involve: A 33-day trip to Mars About one month on the Martian surface A 90-day return journey to Earth NASA's NASA probe New Horizons became the fastest spacecraft ever launched from Earth when it left for Pluto at around 16.26 kilometres per second. Future rockets like SpaceX Starship or Blue Origin New Glenn may eventually push those limits even further. One of the most fascinating parts of this story is that the discovery wasn't the result of a grand Mars mission plan. It came from a scientist noticing something unusual in old asteroid calculations that everyone else had moved past. Breakthroughs don't always emerge from people searching directly for answers.

Bildung oder Blendwerk? Florian Felix Weyh deckt auf, warum Latein mehr ist als tote Sprache – und wie "Faktum" und "Fakt" eine Debatte entfachen.

ACTA's Veronica Bryant welcomes David Rohrbacher, Provost and Vice President of Academic Affairs and Professor of Classics at the New College of Florida. NCF made headlines after they skyrocketed from an "F" grade to a "B+" rating in ACTA's What Will They Learn? Project (WWTL), becoming this year's "most improved school." WWTL assigns letter grades based on the rigor of the core curriculum at over 1,100 American colleges and universities. This improvement was thanks to a total overhaul of their general education program in 2024. Professor Rohrbacher discusses how that change came about and the innovative academic reforms that engage NCF students in substantive, serious coursework.

The Focolare Word of Life Podcast"I Had Nothing to Give, So I Gave It to God"In this month's Word of Life Experiences, Karen, Deacon Erik, and Joyce reflect on Matthew 17:7 — “Get up and do not be afraid.” Karen shares how turning thirty brought unexpected fears about her future and vocation. Through a conversation with her father and a renewed trust in God, she learned to let go of expectations and walk forward with confidence, trusting that God was guiding her path. Deacon Erik recounts the anxiety he felt during his pastoral training in a hospital setting. In a moment of fear and uncertainty, he entrusted everything to God and discovered that simply being present with others can become a powerful encounter of love. Joyce reflects on how community helped transform fear and frustration in a difficult relationship at work. Through patience, dialogue, and the support of others, she discovered how choosing love can bring healing and deeper understanding.This episode was made possible thanks to the generous support of the ACTA

ACTA's Academic Affairs Fellow Veronica Bryant is joined by Dr. Marie Kawthar Daouda, stipendiary lecturer in French at the University of Oxford's Oriel College. Dr. Daouda teaches both literature and language, and her research focuses on the reception of antiquity in modern times and artistic representations of good and evil in periods of political and religious crisis. She is the author of Not Your Victim: How Our Obsession with Race Entraps and Divides Us. In their wide-ranging conversation, Drs. Bryant and Daouda discuss the role of language in shaping national, cultural, and individual identity.

This week, I was pleased to welcome back to the studio Jim Aidala, Senior Government Affairs Consultant at B&C and its consulting affiliate, The Acta Group (Acta®) and Claire Hansen, an Associate with B&C and Regulatory Analyst with Acta, to discuss the ever-changing influence of foreign policy on the chemical industry. As we all know, there is a lot going on in the world and much of it may seem somewhat tangential to the chemical industry. On closer inspection, Claire and Jim's January 27, 2026, blog notes otherwise, and lays out the reasons why international events, trade-related matters, and multilateral institutions have a significant impact on domestic chemical regulation. During our podcast we discuss why chemical companies are paying close attention to foreign policy, trade policy, and related international issues, the pending Supreme Court case on the President's authority to impose tariffs, the unpredictability of the financial markets, and a wide range of other topics which I think you will find interesting.

Las asociaciones de víctimas de la dana se muestran prudentes ante la posibilidad que el expresident valenciano, Carlos Mazón, de poder ser juzgado por su gestión de los hechos. La presidenta de la Asociación Víctimas Mortales de la Dana 29-O, Rosa Álvarez, explica que la noticia "ha sido inesperada" pero sí que prefieren que en este caso el Tribunal Superior de Justicia se quedase solo la causa sobre Mazón, por ser aforado, y no la causa completa. Sobre está condición de aforda, Álvarez lamenta que el PP no le obligue a renunciar al acta: "Son contudentes con otros casos como la presunta agresión sexual cometida por el DAO y aquí, que está todo tan claro, que a esperar". Las víctimas también han podido hablar ante Les Corts, un hecho que ha defendido Álvarez como una victoria de las asociaciones: "no es una invitación, las dos asociaciones mayoritarias doblegamos la voluntad de PP y Vox". Lamenta también que haya asociaciones 'fake' que esten expandiendo bulos sobre la dana o agitadores que solo buscan "notoriedad" y "desprestigiar".Escuchar audio

What does it take for a founder to return to what is real, aligned, and alive in him, instead of chasing the success, admiration, or approval he hopes will finally make him feel enough and at ease in his own life?Within the world of leaders and business owners, many of the men I work with have climbed what we would describe as their first mountain... They pursued external success, achieved milestones, and reached the very things our culture rewards. Yet somewhere along the way, a humbling truth emerges:The freedom, love, approval, or peace they hoped to feel never lasts. And they find themselves standing with everything they once wanted, yet feeling empty or restless inside.This is the moment they arrive at a crossroads. The old strategies no longer work, yet the clarity or direction how to climb their second mountain has not arrived. A mountain connected to their deeper nature, guided by what feels alive and aligned, offering a far more sustainable way to experience fulfillment than the achievement driven path that came before.In this conversation, Bjoern and I explore this crossroads in a grounded, practical way, the space between the life a man has built and the life he actually wants. In This Episode You Will Discover:Why external achievements cannot create the inner fulfillment so many men quietly hope forThe patterns that keep founders stuck on the first mountainThe common pitfalls men encounter when they begin searching for a deeper purposeWhat it looks like to move toward a deeper sense of purpose in a clear and embodied wayHow to make decisions guided by your inner knowing rather than by what simply makes sense from the outsideHow to follow what is true and aligned when fear or expectations ariseHow your relationship to death can clarify what genuinely matters to youHow you can live with greater intention in the choices you make each dayHow to build a life that feels meaningful, guided by your authentic expression rather than performance or provingAt its core, this episode offers a clear, grounded pathway for men who have reached or pursued success yet still feel a quiet restlessness inside. A pathway toward building a life that feels meaningful, guided by authentic expression rather than performance or proving. A form of leadership rooted in inner alignment, presence, and truth. If you are a man who is tired of working harder at the things that no longer work, who feels something deeper calling you forward, or who wants clarity on the next chapter of your life, I trust this episode will meet you where you are.—Connect with Alex Lehmann:

La revolución de 1688, más conocida como revolución gloriosa, supuso el triunfo definitivo del parlamentarismo en Inglaterra. Trajo también el fin de la casa Estuardo, aunque en este caso con algunos años de retraso. Este acontecimiento no fue algo ni repentino, ni aislado, sino la culminación de un proceso que había dado comienzo casi un siglo antes. Durante ese tiempo proliferaron las tensiones entre la Corona y el parlamento, unas tensiones que dejaron un reguero de guerras civiles y la ejecución de Carlos I en 1649. El detonante final se produjo durante el reinado de Jacobo II, que ascendió al trono en 1685. Su abierto catolicismo y su uso de la "facultad de dispensa" para ignorar al parlamento despertaron el temor a que implantase en Inglaterra una monarquía absoluta similar a la de Luis XIV en Francia. La desconfianza se transformó en crisis en 1688 por dos hechos: el juicio a siete obispos anglicanos que se opusieron al rey y, especialmente, el nacimiento de un heredero varón que sería criado como católico. Esto eliminaba la esperanza de una sucesión protestante a través de su hija María. Ante la amenaza de que se revirtiese la reforma anglicana, un grupo de parlamentarios que se dieron en llamar a sí mismos los "Siete Inmortales" invitaron a Guillermo de Orange, estatúder de los Países Bajos y esposo de María, a intervenir militarmente para proteger las libertades inglesas. Guillermo organizó una gran expedición financiada por el banquero sefardí Francisco Lopes Suasso. En noviembre de 1688 desembarcó en Torbay con más de 15.000 hombres. La resistencia de Jacobo II se vino abajo rápidamente debido a las deserciones en su ejército y su propio colapso personal. Tras arrojar el Sello Real al Támesis y huir a Francia, el Parlamento declaró el trono vacante por una abdicación tácita. En 1689 el parlamento ofreció la corona a Guillermo y María, pero con una condición sine qua non: la aceptación de la Declaración de Derechos o Bill of Rights. Este documento restringía mucho el poder real. Entre otras cosas prohibía al monarca suspender leyes y recaudar impuestos sin permiso parlamentario. Se materializó así el "contrato social" preconizado por John Locke, mediante el cual la legitimidad del soberano emana de un pacto con sus súbditos y no del derecho divino. La estabilidad del nuevo régimen se reforzó con el Acta de Establecimiento de 1701, que excluía a perpetuidad a los católicos del trono. Esto permitió que, tras la muerte sin herederos de la reina Ana en 1714, la corona pasara de los Estuardo a la Casa de Hannover en la persona de Jorge I. Aunque Jacobo II intentó recuperar el trono con apoyo francés, su derrota en la batalla del Boyne en Irlanda selló su destino. A diferencia de la Revolución Francesa, la Gloriosa fue un cambio de régimen relativamente incruento y conservador en sus formas, ya que no pretendía alumbrar un mundo nuevo, sino preservar las leyes tradicionales. Pero sus consecuencias fueron radicales. La estabilidad que otorgó a Gran Bretaña permitió su expansión imperial y la revolución industrial. El modelo de supremacía parlamentaria que quedó establecido entonces ha perdurado hasta el momento presente e influyó mucho en todas las revoluciones que vinieron después.

This week, I had the pleasure of speaking with Dr. Richard E. Engler, Director of Chemistry for B&C and The Acta Group (Acta®), our consulting affiliate, and Ryan N. Schmit, Of Counsel with B&C and Senior Regulatory Consultant with Acta, about the recent release of the House Energy and Commerce Subcommittee on Environment's Discussion Draft of suggested amendments to the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA). The document has inspired spirited debate over the questions should TSCA be amended and if so, how? The Subcommittee also convened a hearing on January 22 seeking stakeholder comment on the Discussion Draft and other topics relating to the Frank R. Lautenberg Chemical Safety for the 21st Century Act's (Lautenberg) implementation. As listeners know, Rich Engler has long been an advocate for change in the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) interpretation of Section 5 new chemical provisions. Rich discusses the Subcommittee's attempt to fix these problems. Joining Rich is Ryan Schmit, Of Counsel and former EPA TSCA attorney who was detailed to the House of Representatives when Lautenberg was under consideration. Both guests offer unique insights into the broader topic of TSCA reform. We discuss the Discussion Draft, the wisdom of TSCA reform, stakeholder response, and what the future may hold for this important topic.

What does it really mean to be an integrated man? And why does this question matter for founders and high performing men today?In this episode, Bjoern and I explore a subject many men are quietly wrestling with, often without fully realizing it:We look at how most men received very little guidance in their transition into manhood. Very few of us had meaningful experiences that clarified what being a man means to us personally, the values we choose, the virtues we stand for, and the standards we hold ourselves to.At the same time, most men have absorbed direct and indirect messages about what is acceptable for a man to feel, show, or express.Some men grew up with overpowering masculine influences or dominant father figures and, in response, learned to reject parts of themselves. They disconnected from instinctual qualities like assertiveness, direction, boldness, and desire.Others adapted in the opposite direction. They learned early in life that vulnerability, gentleness, or softness were unsafe, so they built a persona rooted in control, performance, and emotional armoring. This left them disconnected from inner qualities like openness, receptivity, and emotional connection.And so, without a clear framework, many men default to performing masculinity rather than actually embodying what is true and real for them.In this episode, discover:Why so many men feel confused and struggle to truly know themselves as menHow the loss of guidance, ritual, and initiation has shaped modern masculinityHow fast paced cultural shifts contribute to men performing masculinity rather than embodying itThe two extremes many men fall into, the Nice Guy and the Disconnected LeaderHow these patterns affect leadership, relationships, and sense of worthWhat the path of integration actually looks like in real life, using our own personal journeys as referenceHow to reclaim the parts of yourself you abandoned rather than becoming someone elseThe importance of building strong, supportive male relationshipsThis conversation is for any man who wants to walk the path of integration, to lead with strength while keeping his heart open. It is for the man who is done performing or hiding and is ready to step into who he truly is. And for the man who senses there is a more truthful way to live and lead, one that honors his unique nature in his work, in his relationships, and in the way he moves through the world.—Connect with Alex Lehmann:

Many founders carry pressure, heaviness, and expectations that few people ever see...And even after everything they've built, many feel disconnected from themselves, unsure how to lead in ways that feel honest, aligned, and true.Today, I'm excited to introduce a project that feels deeply meaningful to me: The Founders Series, a six-part podcast series created with my close friend, Bjoern Keune.This series speaks directly to the challenges founders, business professionals, and high-performing men face today. It's designed to support a shift from high-functioning stress into embodied and integrated leadership, where clarity and centeredness are possible even under pressure.The inspiration began in August, when Bjoern and I led a workshop for founders in Berlin. It quickly became clear how naturally our approaches complemented each other.While my background is in embodied coaching, somatic work, and group facilitation, Bjoern brings over fifteen years of entrepreneurial experience, along with his work as a mentor, advisor, and investor, grounded in years of practice in Zen meditation.It became clear how naturally our approaches complemented each other...In my coaching practice, I've come to intimately understand the inner challenges high performing men face. And Bjoern understands them from the inside out, having lived through many of the same pressures.Together, we share a clear and embodied perspective on what founders actually need.What became undeniable is how many founders are still operating in the dark:They carry the intensity of leadership without knowing how to work with it or ask for support...They struggle to remain true to themselves when things get difficult...Relationships suffer, both in business and at home... And many feel disconnected from their worth, wellbeing, and deeper sense of purpose...This founder series was created to offer a new path forward.Our first conversation explores how to lead in ways that don'tcreate more pressure or disconnection, but instead bring us closer to ourselves and to each other.In this episode, you'll find out: How founders can build companies from their core, staying connected to their inner genius while serving othersHow Bjoern's company, Acta, brings these principles to life through truth, presence, and genuine service.What becomes possible when founders reconnect with their innate core, and how this reconnection changes the way they make decisions, lead, and create.The hidden pressures many founders carry, the emotional toll of leading alone, and why emotional leadership and nervous system awareness are essentialHow cultivating relationships rooted in truth, connection, and genuine care directly impacts leadershipWhat it means to create from devotion rather than stress, following inner excitement and honesty instead of external pressureFor the past two months, this has been the project Bjoern and I have been building, and I'm genuinely excited to now share it with you.If you're a man that wants to lead differently, with more clarity, integrity, and presence, this series is for you.—Connect with Alex Lehmann:

The second College Football Playoff ranking releases tonight. How dramatic will a shift in the rankings be? There is sure to be some near the bottom of the Top 10 after #8 Texas Tech's dominant win over #7 BYU, but how about the top? After #3 Texas A&M's convincing win at #22 Missouri and #2 Indiana's struggle at Penn State, will the committee jump the Aggies over the Hoosiers? Andy Staples, Ross Dellenger and Steven Godfrey discuss how they think the rankings will play out going forward. Plus, what impact could #16 Vanderbilt have on the rankings this season? What has to fall their way in order to make it into this year's CFP, and how can they make sure they can keep their coach after such success this season?Then, the guys take a look at a new tactic for the coaching carousel: Don't get involved. This is the tactic Wisconsin is taking as they announced that head coach Luke Fickell will remain at the helm next season. The immediate result was an upset of #23 Washington. The guys discuss this decision for Wisconsin and their vow to put more funds into the football program. Will this be enough to boost the future of the team and turn the program towards a winning path? What took them so long to get to this point? The guys also talk about why some schools were able to adapt quickly and other schools struggled to respond to NIL. Hint: Some were prepared, some weren't prepared and some were already well versed in the art of paying players. Later, the drama in the Big Ten continues to heat up amongst discussions about private equity. Board members of various schools are speaking out about their lack of involvement with this decision and their opposition to it being voted through. The American Council of Trustees & Alumni, ACTA, is also now involved. A vote seems to still be upcoming, with the current expectation being that only Michigan and USC's presidents are against the decision.
