Welcome to Impact Quantum, the podcast for the quantum curious—where caffeine, ambition, and a hint of quantum entanglement power every conversation. In this globe-trotting episode, hosts Bailey, Candace Gillhoolley, and Frank La Vigne dissect the state of quantum initiatives across 30 countries, exploring how nations from Canada to Israel are racing ahead with billion-dollar investments, strategic alliances, and sometimes even crystal chandeliers behind industry leaders. You'll get a behind-the-scenes look at the making of their comprehensive global quantum report, complete with a Quantum Readiness Index that ranks countries not by style, but by their funding, startups, and readiness for a quantum future.The hosts also dig deep into a challenge facing the entire industry: a workforce conundrum where too few brains—or perhaps too many of the wrong kind—risk slowing quantum progress. They share how their innovative process, nicknamed "Vibe coding," helped synthesize this worldwide chaos into a stunning map and report, all while keeping things refreshingly accessible and a bit irreverent.So grab your favorite beverage—whether it's hot, cold, or superfluid—and get ready for a journey that's equal parts educational and entertaining. Whether you're a physicist, marketer, or just quantum curious, this episode will leave your mind stimulated and maybe a bit entangled.Time Stamps00:00 Impact Quantum: Global Quantum Insights05:25 Global Event Analysis08:59 Global Quantum Activity Map10:05 North America's Readiness Index Overview16:05 Global Brainpower Race Concerns19:16 Tech System Setup Challenges22:20 AI's Academic Shift to Industry23:37 Interdisciplinary Skills in Vibe Coding26:55 Global Quantum Computing Landscape32:38 Impact Quantum: Exploring the Frontier

This segment argues that European leaders are trying to drag the United States into a conflict with Russia for their own benefit, and that a proposed security guarantee is a dangerous trap. The host claims that a potential peace deal is being sabotaged by NATO attacks on Russia, which are designed to provoke a response and escalate the war. The conversation then shifts to a new European Union law, the "European Media Freedom Act," which the host alleges turns the EU into a "police state" that spies on and arrests journalists for "politically incorrect" speech. The host questions why American lives should be sacrificed for countries that he believes are increasingly resembling the authoritarian regimes of the past.

What does it mean to advocate for taxpayer rights in an increasingly polarized political landscape? Can alliances between the left and right yield real reform in tax policy?In this episode of Associations Thrive, host Joanna Pineda interviews Pete Sepp, President of the National Taxpayers Union (NTU). Pete discusses:How NTU, founded in 1969, is a nonpartisan organization focused on simpler, fairer, lower taxes, less wasteful spending, and taxpayer rights.NTU's mission to fill gaps in the tax policy advocacy space, working on issues that other organizations ignore or overlook.Why NTU identified IRS reform as a key issue — and how they view it as a human rights concern, not just a policy issue.How NTU built a diverse coalition — including organizations like the ACLU and La Raza — to push for taxpayer rights reforms.NTU's creation of the Taxpayer Defense Center to pursue public interest litigation in precedent-setting tax cases.How the NTU Foundation's “Tax Basics” provides factual, accessible answers to common taxpayer questions.The internal practices that earned NTU a spot on Washingtonian's “Best Places to Work” list, including entrepreneurship and low internal politics.Pete's philosophy that association CEOs must focus on the “Four M's” — Money, Money, Money, and Money — to lead effectively.His success in working across ideological lines by reading opposing viewpoints, reaching out, and finding common ground.References:NTU WebsiteWhich States are Best for Remote Workers? 2025 Remote Obligations and Mobility (ROAM) Index - Foundation - National Taxpayers Unionhttps://www.ntu.org/foundation/project/taxpayer-defense-centerInside the One Big Beautiful Bill Act: Major Tax Provisions and Their Impact - Foundation - National Taxpayers Unionhttps://www.ntu.org/foundation/detail/ntuf-launches-cross-ideological-coalition-to-advise-on-irs-80-billion-budget-boost18 Great Places to Work in the DC Area

Join Justin Bassi, Executive Director of the Australian Strategic Policy Institute and former National Security Advisor to Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull, and Hoover Senior Fellow H.R. McMaster, as they discuss threats to international security, Australia's role in the Indo-Pacific, and opportunities for Canberra and Washington to work together to promote peace and prosperity. Viewing China's military and technological rise as Australia's top security threat, Bassi discusses the ambitions of the Chinese Communist Party leaders and how Australia and its allies can compete more effectively to counter CCP aggression and prevent a war with China. The US and Australia sharing a deep history since World War I, Bassi reflects on how more recent internal debates are playing out within Australia regarding Trump administration policies, how we can promote a positive agenda to advance our mutual interests, and his views on the future of AUKUS – the alliance between Australia, the US and the UK to strengthen defense and promote a free and open Indo-Pacific.

In this episode, we dive into the latest from The Real Housewives of Orange County and Miami, starting with OC, where the group's attempt to freeze out Katie falls flat—and we unpack why their argument doesn't hold up. We also discuss Shannon Beador's reaction and what it reveals about the group dynamic. Then it's off to Miami, where tensions are high and the cold shoulder seems to be making the rounds again—this time aimed at Guerdy. Is the group reaching, or is there more beneath the surface? Plus, we talk about how Stephanie's surprisingly deep Housewives knowledge is showing up, despite being the new kid on the block. Sponsors: NAD+ Effecty.com with code ALLABOUTTRH at checkout.

Eric and Eliot welcome Rebecca Friedman Lissner and Mira Rapp-Hooper to Shield of the Republic to discuss their recent article in the July/August issue of Foreign Affairs, "Absent at the Creation?: American Strategy and the Delusion of a Post-Trump Restoration." They discuss the speed with which Trump has imposed policy changes, the likelihood that old international order will be irreparably broken by the end of this term, the limits of American resilience, and the emergence of a multipolar world order. They also discuss challenges to American pre-eminence of emerging technologies and "compounding geopolitical risks" that Trump's cuts to research, assault on universities, and limits on tech transfer to China will do to U.S. innovation and international competitiveness. Note: After this episode was recorded the Trump administration announced approval of AI semiconductor chip sales to China.

When you're outgunned, under-resourced, and facing giants, success takes more than speed. It takes teamwork, message discipline, and relentless coordination.That's how the Rebel Alliance defeats the Galactic Empire, and it's how great B2B marketing teams win in the real world. In this episode, we unpack marketing lessons from the Star Wars saga with special guest Eric Herzog, CMO at Infinidat.Together, we explore what B2B marketers can learn from thinking like a startup, aligning cross-functional teams, and building content strategies that deliver across every touchpoint.About our guest, Eric HerzogEric Herzog is the Chief Marketing Officer at Infinidat. Prior to joining Infinidat, Herzog was CMO and VP of Global Storage Channels at IBM Storage Solutions. His executive leadership experience also includes: CMO and Senior VP of Alliances for all-flash storage provider Violin Memory, and Senior Vice President of Product Management and Product Marketing for EMC's Enterprise & Mid-range Systems Division.What B2B Companies Can Learn From Star Wars:Business is a team sport. Great marketing doesn't happen in silos. Whether you're a startup or a global enterprise, success depends on alignment across every function. Eric says, “In marketing, having all kinds of people running around with different functions is wrong. They all need to work together in what I call a completely vertically integrated marketing.” Your message, your content, your sales strategy. it all has to move as one.Message discipline wins hearts and minds. When you can't outspend the competition, out-message them. A clear, consistent story can be your greatest weapon. “You need to win the hearts of the minds of your customers, and your prospects, and your channel, and your sales team,” Eric says. If your message isn't aligned, neither is your market.Think like a startup (no matter your size). Speed, focus, and adaptability aren't just startup traits; they're must-haves for any marketing team. Eric explains, “ The most successful big companies in overall functions, as well as in their marketing function, try to act like a startup.” Whether you're leading a lean team or navigating a Fortune 500 org, it's that startup mindset that helps you outmaneuver slower, more bureaucratic competitors.Quote“Business is a team sport, and a subteam of marketing as part of the business is a team sport too. If you don't work as a team, the empire will crush you. You need to be like the Rebel Alliance and all work together.”Time Stamps[0:55] Meet Eric Herzog, CMO at Infinidat[01:08] Why Star Wars?[01:54] Role of CMO at Infinidat[03:03] Origins of Star Wars[08:52] B2B Marketing Takeaways from Star Wars[30:04] Infinidat's Content Strategy[33:39] Final Thoughts and TakeawaysLinksConnect with Eric on LinkedInLearn more about InfinidatAbout Remarkable!Remarkable! is created by the team at Caspian Studios, the premier B2B Podcast-as-a-Service company.

Epstein's storm intensifies around his administration. Russia was uninterested in Trump's weapons for Ukraine and tariff threats.

Years ago, I was introduced to a former Marine and FBI counterintelligence officer whose job was to recruit spies to help protect our country. His secret weapon? Empathy. Finding out what is important to someone so that they can then build trust and find shared goals.Robin Dreek joins us again today to talk about his latest book, Unbreakable Alliances: A Spy Recruiter's Authoritative Guide to Cultivating Powerful and Lasting Connections. He shares the four keys to communication and the difference between inspiration, influence, and manipulation. He shares the behaviors of trust required to inspire people to feel safe. We talk about how to engage empathy to inspire people to open up, share their context, and forge those unbreakable alliances. Finally, Robin shares a great definition of active curiosity and what it can do for both your relationships and success.

For all its promise of disruption, Donald Trump's first term as president transformed American foreign policy less than most critics feared and some supporters hoped. Alliances held up, the rules-based order largely endured, and American global leadership appeared resilient. When Joe Biden was elected president in 2020, he could proclaim “America is back” and proceed with a foreign policy that was in many ways quite traditional. But Trump's second term has been different. In just a few months, he has broken with decades of precedent on everything from trade to alliances. And as Rebecca Lissner and Mira Rapp-Hooper argue in a new Foreign Affairs essay, this time there will be no going back. Trump's presidency will fundamentally change American leadership and global order. As senior officials on Biden's National Security Council, Lissner and Rapp-Hooper helped chart the way forward after Trump's first term. They argue that the task now is to understand and, in a few regards, learn from the consequences of Trump's disruption. Contending with the world after Trump will be a tall order. But they also see it as an opportunity: a clean slate on which to write the future of American foreign policy.

In this sprawling live dig, Ghost uncovers the web of pipelines, intelligence alliances, and hidden players shaping the next phase of global power struggles. He starts by tracing the strategic triangle of Moscow, Tehran, and Beijing, explaining how Central Asia's flat plains and the Trans-Caspian Pipeline became the new battleground for influence. Pivoting to Azerbaijan, Ghost details how Israeli drones and jets allegedly used Azerbaijani territory to attack Iran during the recent conflict, accusations that Baku denies while maintaining tight military cooperation with Tel Aviv. He explores how the BTC pipeline fuels Israel's energy needs and how Azerbaijan's strategic location links the Ukraine war with the Middle East escalation. The episode also dives into Armenia's crackdown on Russian-backed billionaires and Orthodox clerics, suggesting echoes of the old Armenian genocide playbook. Ghost rounds out the show exposing the tangled ties between former Ukrainian officials, Gazprom intermediaries, and the US diplomatic corps dating back to the collapse of the Soviet Union. It's a complex, eye-opening look at how pipeline politics, covert alliances, and energy corridors are merging into a single geopolitical theater.

Aujourd'hui, Antoine Diers, Joëlle Dago-Serry et Jérôme Marty débattent de l'actualité autour d'Alain Marschall et Olivier Truchot.

Tara exposes the bizarre evolution of American political and cultural allegiances, starting with the cover-up of the Islamic terrorist attack at Orlando's Pulse nightclub and ending with transgender activists marching alongside pro-Hamas supporters. She unpacks the disturbing irony of LGBTQ flags flying next to Iranian and Palestinian symbols—ideologies that would persecute them in their home countries. Meanwhile, she connects the dots between China's covert operations, Iran's nuclear ambitions, and the Biden administration's dangerous compromises. With the Middle East on the edge, Israel dismantling Iran's military leadership, and Trump distancing himself, Tara warns that America's real enemies aren't being fought—they're being protected.

In this episode, Marcelle and Raimi are in conversation with a very special guest, Nehiyaw (Cree) Elder Richard Jenkins. Elder Richard Jenkins chats with us about what being an elder means to him, as well as 2-spirit as a placeholder term for gender and sexual diversity, and ᐁᔨᐦᑵᐤ (eyihkwew; not man, not woman, something in between) as a conceptual way of being that can see and understand multiple perspectives. We are grateful for Richard sharing teachings with us as he touches on the Nehiyaw practice of noninterference as a core principle for how to guide and support children. The trio, as always, finish with recommendations, including; The Travelers of Casteia by Beck DeTrempe, 2 Spirits in Motion Society, and The Non-Binary Bunny by Maia Kobabe. The 2-Spirit documentary mentioned by Marcelle is “Re:Membering Stories of the 2Spirit Indigenous HIV/AIDS Movement” and can be found on the CAAN (Communities, Alliances and Networks) website.If you enjoyed this episode, please share it with family and friends!

Philippines, Cuba, Korea, Vietnam, Iraq, Iran, and on and on it goes. America hardly has found a war it didn't like since the turn of the 20th Century.

Laura Gish, VP for Prayer and Advancement at Mission Mutual, is a prayer leader and mobilizer of givers and intercessors in collective impact spaces. Laura was raised in a faith-filled home and felt an exceptional call to prayer and the Bible in her early teens. Through her father's job, Laura was deeply connected to the Bible translation space from a young age and was able to witness the evolution of the illumiNations impact alliance to what it is today. In her early career, Laura served at Seed Company where she helped to spearhead a prayer movement which saw huge breakthroughs in the field and in funding.   That experience led her to Mission Mutual which serves as a backbone for multiple impact alliances in a variety of impact spaces. She has an incredible perspective on being founded and rooted in prayer, personally and as an organization, and the necessity of collaboration in the Great Commission arena. You won't want to miss all she had to share!   Major topics include: Laura's early life, faith background, and early career The story of Seed Company's donor funded prayer program Laura's favorite outcomes from the prayer program Helping organizations develop a foundation of prayer The unique power of a collective impact alliance Key characteristics of a collective impact framework The story and vision of Mission Mutual Differences between a giving fund and an impact alliance What is a backbone service provider?

And as we pray for something, it grows our heart to want to give.” “Prayer is not just a strategy. It is the strategy.” “Prayer is the catalyst for intimacy with God.” “Look at what God can do when we put aside our individual logos and agendas, and we pursue the collective power of what partnership can be when it's united under a vision God has given His people to pursue and it's rooted in prayer.”  “Generosity begets generosity.” “When we yoke together in unity, the collective impact capacity isn't just doubled, it's exponentially expanded.” “Prayer is one of the most generous things we can offer.” “God changes our hearts when we pray.” “Be a faithful steward of the brokenness that God has planted inside of you.” LINKS FROM THE SHOW Mission Mutual  Seed Company (see our interview with CEO, Davis Powell) IllumiNations Bible Translation Alliance (see our interview with Todd Peterson or John Chesnut) Every Tribe Every Nation (ETEN) ACHIEVE (A Church in Every Village Everywhere) Close the Bible Gap The Finish Line Community Facebook Group The Finish Line Community LinkedIn Group BIBLE REFERENCES FROM THE SHOW Psalm 127:1a | The Lord Builds the House   Unless the Lord builds the house, those who build it labor in vain.   John 17:21 | Oneness in the Church   that they may all be one, just as you, Father, are in me, and I in you, that they also may be in us, so that the world may believe that you have sent me.   Isaiah 60:3 | Drawn to Your Light   And nations shall come to your light, and kings to the brightness of your rising.   Ecclesiastes 4:12b | Strength in Unity   a threefold cord is not quickly broken.   Mark 16:15 | The Great Commission And he said to them, “Go into all the world and proclaim the gospel to the whole creation.
