The Inside Economics team turned lugubrious in this week's episode. Given this week's data dump showing that inflation is uncomfortably high and accelerating, and the job market and broader economy are struggling, it's hard not to be. They also consider what it all means for the Fed, which is in an increasingly difficult position, and prospects that the economy will fall off the narrow tight rope it is on, into recession. Guest: Dante DeAntonio, Senior Director of Economic Research, Moody's AnalyticsHosts: Mark Zandi – Chief Economist, Moody's Analytics, Cris deRitis – Deputy Chief Economist, Moody's Analytics, and Marisa DiNatale – Senior Director - Head of Global Forecasting, Moody's AnalyticsFollow Mark Zandi on 'X' and BlueSky @MarkZandi, Cris deRitis on LinkedIn, and Marisa DiNatale on LinkedInQuestions or Comments, please email us at helpeconomy@moodys.com.

He is also the Chief Risk Officer for the Federal Retirement Thrift Investment Board (FRTIB). [4:15] Tom Brandt is here to discuss ERM and how it has been a guiding light throughout his risk career, which includes several years at the IRS. He recently participated in the RIMS ERM Q&A Series, and we're going to extend the dialogue beyond those digital pages, so let's get to it. [4:35] Interview! Tom Brandt, welcome to RIMScast! [4:42] At long last, Tom Brandt is here on RIMScast! Tom is one of the members of the Strategic and Enterprise Risk Management Council and one of the recipients of the 2024 ERM Award of Distinction. There's so much to discuss when it comes to ERM! Tom loves ERM. [5:18] Tom was also a 2021 ERM Award of Distinction recipient for his work at the IRS, where he worked for about 27 years, for the last eight of which, he was their Chief Risk Officer. There, he got into the whole ERM space. [5:38] Then, in late 2021, an opportunity opened at the Federal Retirement Thrift Investment Board (FRTIB), and Tom took on the role of Chief Risk Officer. He enjoys the opportunity to work in a small organization with a different focus. [5:55] The FRTIB is sort of the 401(k) for federal employees and uniformed services. They have a singular mission around that plan. [6:13] Tom was brought into the FRTIB to integrate strategy and ERM. He stresses the importance of linking risk and strategy. When Tom started, the offices of Enterprise Planning and Enterprise Risk had just been brought together. [6:51] They were looking for the first Director of Planning and Risk/CRO. Tom applied and was selected for the role. Even though it's a small agency of 250, those functions had been siloed. [7:07] Tom's first area of focus was getting the staff to know each other and learn more about what each process entailed, and then working with the team to look at how to bring these processes together. [7:23] Tom says, when we're identifying risks and needing to mitigate risks, the next question is, where do we get the resources? When the process is not integrated into your planning and budgeting process, that becomes very challenging. [7:36] As we go through our annual planning process, we work with our business offices, and if they're risk owners, we talk about what risks they are managing or mitigating, and if there are related initiatives or resources needed. [7:51] That information gets captured in the annual plan and becomes an input to the budget process. We're not only raising the risks and talking about them, but also identifying initiatives and getting funding, support, and resources to manage and mitigate those risks. [8:16] Tom's risk group has seven or eight people. They also do internal controls, policies, and procedures. They are the agency's anti-fraud group. They do brand monitoring and run the third-party risk monitoring program. They do work beyond the enterprise risk component. [8:51] The FRTIB moved from a high-level to a medium-level cyber risk posture, which improved Federal Information Security Modernization Act (FISMA) scores. FISMA is an annual cybersecurity audit of federal organizations. [9:27] Years ago, the FRTIB was scoring in the 1s and 2s on most domains in this audit, out of a possible score of 5. That coincided with cybersecurity being one of the FRTIB's high risks. They needed to put in place better governance and protections. [9:53] Because cybersecurity had been one of the FRTIB's high risks, they require any of their enterprise risks that are medium high or higher to have a risk treatment plan. They work with their CISO and the cyber team to develop risk treatment plans each year. [10:08] The risk treatment plans identify resource needs and specific areas of focus. They use the FISMA domains, questions, and assessment criteria to keep in mind where they need to shore things up. [10:20] Justin clarifies that FISMA, the Federal Information Security Modernization Act, is a U.S. Federal law that requires federal agencies to develop a document and implement information security programs to protect government information. [10:36] Tom remarks that as a result of great work done by the CISO and the cyber team, the FRTIB scored a 5 in each domain on their 2024 FISMA audit. That moved the cybersecurity risk score down. It's still at a medium level because the threat landscape continues to evolve. [10:56] Threat actors are always out there, trying to stay one step ahead of you, so you have to stay on your game to get ahead of them. [11:15] The cyber threat is so significant that collectively, we all need to be working as hard as we can to maintain our defenses. Tom says the CISO community is working together to integrate the latest technology and developments and understand where the threat is. [11:49] The CISO community is staying on top of what's happening in the AI space to be able to share good practices across agencies and ensure that our posture government-wide is as strong as possible in detecting and preventing the cyber threat. [12:06] One of the strategic goals for FRTIB is the managed services model. Tom speaks about assessing and monitoring third-party and vendor risks in a way that's scalable and sustainable. [12:18] When Tom moved into his position, in December 2021, the agency was about six months away from implementing that managed services model for their record-keeping service. Record keeping is a huge part of the FRTIB's work. They have almost 7.5 million participants. [12:36] Managing participant transactions and keeping their information is a core responsibility for the agency. They were moving to a managed service model. [12:48] When you shift to that type of model, you don't give up accountability and responsibility for the program. You work with a provider. The Agency needed to look at what its mechanism for oversight was, to manage and understand third-party risk. [13:06] The Agency had some capabilities in place for vendor monitoring and supply chain risk management. Tom's area of focus was to build up the third-party risk management program. [13:18] Tom did a maturity assessment to compare what they were doing to good practices and look for opportunities to enhance their capabilities. He brought in some services from external providers to help with access to data about the performance of third-party services. [13:42] Quarterly, Tom reports to the FRTIB board on their top vendors, their overall operations, whether there are any risks he has concerns about, and if so, what is being done to address those risks. That has helped to put in place a strong third-party risk management program. [14:03] When Tom joined the FRTIB, his predecessor had already built a strong, mature ERM program. There was a repeatable process in place with a risk register and a risk profile. [14:22] The opportunity was in integrating risk with planning and looking at how to enhance the program and bring it to the next level of maturity and build out that third-party risk management monitoring capability.  [14:42] RIMS Events!

[16:37] Shortly after Tom won the 2021 ERM Award of Distinction, along with Melissa Reynard, for his work with the IRS, he left to go to the FRTIB. Tom talks about the switch. [16:57] Tom had a great career with the IRS. He had a range of different roles and responsibilities. For his last eight years with the IRS, he was the CRO. [17:23] Tom was ready to make a change. He learned about the opportunity at FRTIB to help them bring risk and strategy programs into one department. He was happy to be selected and see the value of having risk and strategy come together. [18:12] Tom was the second CRO at the IRS. In 2013, the IRS had a crisis, so they brought in a CRO from the GAO for about a year. Tom had been doing risk work in one of the business units of the IRS. He was chosen for the CRO position in 2014. [18:50] The IRS crisis in 2013 related to concerns about how the agency had been handling applications for tax-exempt status. It led to Congressional hearings and IRS leadership changes. [19:04] Before going to the FRTIB, Tom was contacted by a recruiter. Someone in the risk community knew of the position and suggested Tom for it. He's thankful he was contacted because it has turned out to be an excellent opportunity. [19:35] Through RIMS, Tom connects with public and private sector colleagues. He sees a lot of similarities. The public sector has been practicing ERM for just under a decade. [20:16] The most essential ingredient in ERM is leadership support. Tom has support at FRTIB from leadership and the Board. Without leadership support, ERM is a compliance exercise. If ERM is truly leveraged, it can add a lot of value. [20.42] Tom thinks we're seeing too many instances where organizations have not had robust risk programs and have had risk events that could have been prevented or had the impact lessened, had they had a risk program.  [21:02] Tom thinks the challenge in the public sector is that there isn't much room for government error. Anything that doesn't go according to plan tends to get attention. [21:22] That oversight creates an environment that tends to be more risk-averse. That's not the way we want to run our risk program, because we want to take advantage of the opportunity that risk prevents, but it's a factor of the environment we operate in. [21:44] Part of what led to the establishment of the IRS ERM program was the 2013 crisis and an after-event assessment of what went wrong. Bad news didn't make it to the top quickly enough. Information that leadership should have been made aware of didn't get there in time. [22:05] As a result, issues and problems were allowed to fester and go out of control. In the IRS, people took a lot of pride in fixing and solving their problems. Sometimes you don't have a lot of time to fix an issue before it goes sideways. [22:41] A real benefit from sharing information is that often you can find other parts of the organization that can help because they've experienced a similar type of issue. They might have additional resources. Ignoring or hiding the problem doesn't make it go away. [23:01] The key value of ERM is creating a culture where people are willing to speak up, information gets escalated quickly, and you're able to bring the right people and resources together to work collectively to manage and mitigate those risks. [23:15] At FRTIB, Tom focuses on creating an environment where people feel comfortable speaking about risk, where it's part of the regular way they operate. [23:32] Since starting in risk many years ago and working with his teams, Tom's approach has been doing risk with offices and not doing risk to offices. He wanted to meet them where they were, understand where they needed help, and nudge them, rather than drag them, along. [24:00] Tom says take time to understand the organization, the unique needs of each office, and work with them to help manage and mitigate a risk, versus trying to force something on them. [24:18] A Quick Plug! If you tuned in to the recent episode featuring James Lam, you will know he is hosting a new six-module workshop for us, the “RIMS-CRO Certificate in Advanced Enterprise Risk Management”.

Be sure to listen closely for the tips that he offers about what makes a strong nomination! [25:10] The link to the nomination form is in this episode's show notes. Good luck! [25:13] Let's Return to the Conclusion of My Interview with Tom Brandt! [25:18] Before becoming the CRO at the IRS, Tom was the Director of Planning and Research for the Large Business and International Division with responsibility for case selection, determining risk on corporate and international tax returns, and which ones should be selected for audit. [25:52] This was a compliance risk experience. That provided the stepping stone to take on a more strategic, operational view of risk within the division. When the broader CRO opportunity became available at the IRS, he was considered and ultimately selected for that position. [26:14] Tom's view of risk has evolved. Within a business unit, he focused on the day-to-day operational and compliance risk. He didn't take a view of the whole organization or what choices he made for his unit ight create risk for another part of the organization. [26:51] It's a real value for ERM to have a portfolio view of the most critical risks across the organization, and understanding how actions to address risks in one area could create or exacerbate a risk somewhere else. [27:08] Tom tells of reputational risk. Sometimes decisions don't factor in how they will be perceived. Tom helped people at the IRS understand reputational risk and the stakeholders they may need to engage to help them understand why particular decisions are made. [28:22] Tom shares advice for nominating an ERM Program for the ERM Award of Distinction. What are the results? What are the outcomes that the program accomplished that you can talk about? How did ERM help the organization? What value did it bring? [29:07] Take an example of something you can share, and explain how ERM was able to surface the risk and bring the right people together to help with that risk and help the organization. [29:24] It's critical to have letters of recommendation. At the IRS, Tom had two Deputy Commissioners write letters about what they saw as the value that ERM brought to the agency. [29:42] At FRTIB, Tom had letters from the Executive Director and a member of its Board, who had served for over a decade and had historical knowledge of how ERM had helped the Agency. [30:04] Tom notes that the process of going through the application is a great learning opportunity to reflect on accomplishments as well as areas of remaining opportunity. [30:17] If you are fortunate enough to be selected to receive recognition, it's a great way to recognize the team. Tom used the Awards to recognize his teams at the IRS and at FRTIB, who are the ones who make all of this possible. The recognition turns out to be great kudos for them. [30:41] You can learn more about Tom's achievements through the links on this episode's show notes, which feature his recent ERM Q&A from 2025. I've also included one with his former coworker from the IRS, Melissa Reynard, from 2022. [30:58] This should give you a great sense of not just the great work that Tom has done but also, what it takes to have your nomination seen and heard and get the recognition that you deserve. [31:13] Tom, it's been great getting to know you these past few years, and I look forward to seeing you in Seattle. Thank you for joining us here on RIMScast!

Studies came out recently about what demographic Stephen Colbert's audience is. It's a ton of Democrats. Not only did Stephen Colbert's show get studied, but other Late-Night Shows did also, and they all have a key secret sauce to them. Hulk Hogan put in long hours doing a video documentary about him, right before his death. Mark Takes Your Calls! Mark Interviews Columnist Liz Peek. The Democrats think they have something to embarrass President Trump which is the Epstein Files. The Dems had access to the Epstein Files under Biden and didn't do anything about it. Jerome Powell should be cutting rates right now. If he doesn't cut rates this week, the fed could lose a lot of money and also it could be the last straw for Powell.

Data and Analytics were the topic of discussion on Episode 163 of the Check Your Six podcast. Army veteran Jake Dyal with Certus Core based in Tampa, dialed in to talk about what it is that they do and how they are handling the challenges in collecting and analyzing data for clients, especially in the military and national security arena. Jake's time in the Army provided him with the education and experience that led him to pursuing his career in the private sector in collecting and analyzing data for a myriad of sources and then providing mission specific content to their clients. We talked about the changing face of war, new and emerging technologies including the use of AI, how growing and adding investors can sometimes change the perspective of a business when investors are involved. We talked about the challenges they have in this industry with hiring and the expectation of the new hires coming in and Certus Core's expectations of those new staff members. Edge computing, sensor data and the tools that are involved which continue to develop and expand at an ever increasing rate, data in defense and the potential challenges that involve ethical collection and use of that date were just a couple of other things we discusses on the episode. You can find out more about what they do at their website, https://www.certuscore.com/Email us at tim@grpstudios.com

 Phillipa Games, has spent more than 25 years swimming in the deep end of digital strategy and analytics. With experience across nearly 500 clients and websites that have brought in hundreds of millions of dollars, Phillipa has seen it all from the good, to the bad, and the wildly overlooked. In this conversation, we peeled back the curtain on website analytics, not the overwhelming, chart-filled dashboard version, but the real, human-centered data that tells the story of what your customers are doing (and not doing) on your site. If you  who would rather schedule a root canal than log into Google Analytics, this episode is your guide to looking at just the data that matters and learning to use it to make smarter decisions.   Key Discussion Points: Why most business owners avoid their analytics dashboards (and why that's a mistake) What to track first — hint: it's not bounce rate The real value in knowing if anyone actually sees your call-to-action Why long, scrolling pages might be quietly killing your conversions How your internal site search can reveal new service and product opportunities Actionable Takeaways: Start with your business goals, not your metrics. Analytics are only helpful if you know what you're trying to achieve. Define what success looks like before diving into data. Every page needs a call to action. Don't leave visitors guessing. Tell them what the next step is — and test different formats and placements to see what works. Don't bury your offer Long pages may look modern, but if your CTA is stuck at the bottom, many visitors will never see it. Move it up the page, and repeat it on the bottom.  Use internal search as market research. The words people type into your site's search box can reveal what they expect you to offer — and what you might consider offering next. Watch where they drop off. If your audience isn't finishing your videos or podcast episodes, take a hard look at how you open. You may be losing them in the first 15 seconds. 

Special guest Steve Daniel joins to discuss quarterbacking in the CFL, how touchdowns off turnovers and kick returns impact the game, why lead fewer lead change equate to fewer games decided in the last three minutes, the depth of analysis now found in CFL Statistics, and how statistical presentations and understandings have evolved over the last 20 years.  (CFL on CBC theme music used with express written permission, podcast recorded July 24, 2025).

Bad Bunny is at the center of the cultural conversation once again, with a week full of viral moments, major media appearances, and a highly anticipated movie debut. The past seven days have seen Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio dominate headlines and social media for both his artistry and unpredictable off-stage moves.Early in the week, Bad Bunny made history with a back-to-back late-night talk show takeover, appearing first on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert on CBS and immediately after on NBC's Late Night with Seth Meyers. As highlighted by the Los Angeles Times, this unprecedented double booking by two competing networks was a testament to his current superstar status. His interviews covered everything from the evolution of his own Puerto Rican musical influences to his upcoming film role, but much of the buzz was generated by glimpses into his personal connection to nostalgia and culture, themes that tie directly to his recent music.The big screen is calling, as Bad Bunny will make his acting debut alongside Adam Sandler in Happy Gilmore 2, which premieres July 25 on Netflix. He's taking on the role of Sandler's caddy—a quirky, comedic pairing that online fans are already anticipating. Bad Bunny himself posted about the film on Instagram, and social media reels and Twitter/X are full of excitement for his cinematic turn. According to Latenighter.com, both he and Sandler appeared together on Seth Meyers' show to tease the film, adding another layer of anticipation for listeners.Musically, Bad Bunny is generating headlines with a new single and news of his next album. Last week, he surprised fans by dropping “Pitorro de Coco,” a holiday-inspired track named after a Puerto Rican rum, and anchored its release to the announcement of his sixth studio album, “Debí Tirar Más Fotos,” coming January 5, 2025. Outlets like NME and AOL highlight that the project is expected to be his most personal yet, contending with themes of nostalgia, heartbreak, and the fleeting nature of memory. Album promotion included a poignant video teaser with Puerto Rican filmmaker Jacobo Morales, setting a reflective tone for the upcoming release and giving fans a taste of a deeper, more vulnerable side to the artist's journey.It wouldn't be a week of Bad Bunny headlines without controversy—at a recent concert at the Coliseo de Puerto Rico, a video went viral of him adjusting a fan's neckline while performing. As reported by CiberCuba, some on social consider the gesture protective and endearing, while others called it intrusive. The moment sparked fierce debates over boundaries, stardom, and consent, as is often the case with Bad Bunny's highly interactive stage presence. The fan in question appeared grateful and unfazed, but the incident has kept social feeds ablaze with opinions, memes, and debates.Beyond music and television, Bad Bunny's “No Me Quiero Ir de Aquí” residency in San Juan is making headlines for its economic and cultural impact. According to Discover Puerto Rico and Moody's Analytics, the concert series is reversing tourism slumps, with record hotel occupancy and a 25% jump in lodging revenues this quarter. Industry experts suggest the shows and Bad Bunny's deep celebration of Puerto Rican identity are helping redefine the island as a must-visit destination, with the artist arguably doing more for tourism than any campaign or influencer.Throughout the week, images of Bad Bunny's unique wardrobe—most recently, viral pics of him in tiny shorts—have been circulating as he cements his place as both an internet heartthrob and a style icon.Thanks for tuning in to this week's round up of all things Bad Bunny. Come back next week for another episode following the latest from around the world of culture and music. This has been a Quiet Please production.

In this episode of Experiencing Data, I chat with Irina Malkova who is the VP of AI Engineering and VP of Data and Analytics for Tech and Product at Salesforce. Irina shares how her teams are reinventing internal analytics, combining classic product data work with cutting-edge AI engineering—and her recent post on LinkedIn titled “AI adoption moves at the speed of user trust,” having a strong design-centered perspective, inspires today's episode. (I even quoted her on this in a couple recent product design conference talks I gave!)  In today's drop, Irina shares how they're enabling analytical insights at Salesforce via a Slack-based AI agent, how they have changed their AI and engineering org structures (and why), the bad advice they got on organizing their data product teams, and more. This is a great episode for senior data product and AI executives managing complex orgs and technology environments who want to see how Salesforce is scaling AI for smarter, faster decisions.

This week on The Data Stack Show, John chats with Paul Blankley, Founder and CTO of Zenlytic, live from Denver! Paul and John discuss the rapid evolution of AI in business intelligence, highlighting how AI is transforming data analysis and decision-making. Paul also explores the potential of AI as an "employee" that can handle complex analytical tasks, from unstructured data processing to proactive monitoring.
