#141Josh sits down with Maddy Shannon, Head of Product Strategy at SpotOn, who has spent her career making independent restaurants more profitable. From a start at Bain, to the business team at The Alinea Group under Nick Kokonas, to the finances at SingleThread Farms in Healdsburg, to a Stanford MBA and now leading SpotOn's reporting, Profit AI, and analytics teams, Maddy sits at the rare intersection of hospitality and product. The conversation keeps circling one idea: great hospitality and great product design solve the same problem. Both anticipate what someone needs before they ask, and both disappear when they work. She calls it the invisibility problem, and it reframes everything from how a point of sale should feel to why diners undervalue what a restaurant gives them.The two dig into what a restaurant meal is really worth, and why pricing a plate off the cost of the prawns misses the wine glass that gets refilled and the person clearing your crumbs. Maddy floats David Nayfeld's idea of billing a meal the way a plumber does, materials, labor, total, so guests see what they are paying for. From there it turns to leadership, where she sets Nick Kokonas's clarity of vision against Kyle Connaughton's prove me right approach at SingleThread, and Josh on unlearning twenty years of knowing every station when he moved into tech. On AI, they land on the line that anchors the back half: data is plentiful, attention is scarce. Both agree the real unlock is not another dashboard but software that tells an operator what to do, the way a doctor diagnoses rather than asking where it hurts. It closes on mastery, the donabe rice pot Maddy treasures, and the tension that restaurant economics rarely leave a chef room to master one thing. Her parting advice: next time you sit down to eat, take a beat, look around, and do not look at the prices so closely.Links and resources

Holden Novak (Nathan Owens) might be offered a job by Cane, adding to the growing bond between him and Lily.  The Young and the Restless spoilers show that Dr. Laurence Markham (Jere Burns) might turn against Patty Williams (Andrea Evans) in favor of Diane Jenkins (Susan Walters), who is wrongfully accused of attacking Jack. Kyle Abbott's (Michael Mealor) intervention might play a significant role in this unfolding drama. Y&R spoilers reveal that Ashley Abbott (Eileen Davidson) returns this week and confronts Victor about Jack's brutal attack by Patty. This confrontation might reveal the truth to Nikki and could potentially disrupt her reunion with Victor. More spoilers for The Young and the Restless confirm that Michael Baldwin might work to prevent Christine Williams (Lauralee Bell) from filing attempted murder charges. He represents Diane in the alleged stabbing of Jack, a situation that will require careful consideration from Christine.  Lastly, spoilers for Y&R show that Nikki might insist on returning to the Genoa City Athletic Club (GCAC), despite Victor's surprise decision regarding her medical care.

Send us Fan Mail◆ Clean-up calls set to change how banks manage senior debt ◆ The Bank of England's SSA bond booster ◆ What is behind booming corporate bond issuance in sterlingA lot of expensive bank bonds, issued when rates and inflation were high and spreads wide, have call dates coming up, meaning issuers will be keen to replace them with cheaper debt at current market prices. To do so, they may completely change how they deal with investors when they do buy-backs. Many of these bonds contain what is known as a clean-up call, which allows the issuer to redeem the rest of the bonds at par once it has competed a tender offer for them, but usually only if it has managed to buy back more than a threshold amount. This puts investors into a dilemma because the price they will be offered in the tender will most likely be better than where they can sell the bonds in the secondary market and what they will get if their bonds are taken back in the clean-up call. It's a technique more commonly used in US markets, and for sub-benchmark sized or subordinated European bank bonds. But now the stakes are being raised as the market contemplates its use in replacing expensive, benchmark-sized senior bonds from issuers that rely on wholesale bond funding. We explore what is at stake for issuers and investors alike.Meanwhile, the Bank of England has started to accept a wider range of public sector bonds as collateral. This will boost the bank treasury bid for sterling SSA bonds. We discuss which new issuers it might attract to the market.Finally, corporate sterling bond issuance has been on a tear this year. We look at who has been issuing, who hasn't, and what the pipeline looks like for the rest of the year.Now read on: Senior bond buy-backs herald new era for European FIG marketSterling SSA issuers rush the queue as BoE repo change beckons new namesIG corporate bond market eyes rebound in sterling issuance

Business meetings have become one of the great productivity sinkholes of modern organisations. Mention the word "meeting" and people's eyes often roll because they expect too many attendees, too much waffle and too little value. Not all meetings are the same. Some are simple information-sharing sessions that could have been an email, a short video or an audio message. Others are strategic, high-stakes discussions that shape the company's future for the next decade. The problem is that many organisations treat all meetings as if they deserve the same one-hour block, the same crowd and the same vague agenda. That is ridiculous, expensive and fixable. Why are so many business meetings ineffective? Business meetings are ineffective because companies often fail to match the meeting format to the actual purpose.A simple update does not need the same time, people or structure as a major strategic decision. In Japan, the US, Europe and Asia-Pacific, meetings often become default behaviour rather than deliberate business tools. Parkinson's Law tells us that work expands to fill the time available, and the same disease infects meetings. Give people one hour and the discussion mysteriously grows to one hour. Leaders need to ask whether the meeting exists to inform, decide, solve, align or create. If the purpose is unclear, the meeting becomes a hotchpotch and everyone pays the price. Do now: Before scheduling, ask: "Is this really a meeting, or could it be an email, video or audio update?" How should leaders clarify the purpose of a meeting? Leaders should define the meeting purpose before inviting anyone, booking a room or setting a time. Without a clear purpose, the agenda becomes a dumping ground for unrelated topics. A good meeting has a primary job. It might be to share information, make a decision, solve a client issue, review performance, manage risk or align a project team. In Japanese companies, where broad attendance can feel polite or politically safe, the purpose becomes even more important. If the meeting is only informational, send a written update. If a decision is needed, invite only the people who can contribute to that decision. Do now: Write the meeting purpose in one sentence and rank agenda items by priority before sending the invitation. Who really needs to attend a business meeting? Only people who are genuinely required for the purpose of the meeting should attend. Everyone else can receive the minutes, a summary or the action list. Japan often loves to invite everyone, but every extra person adds cost. A ten-person meeting lasting one hour consumes ten working hours before any follow-up work even begins. In global companies using Outlook, Google Calendar, Teams or Zoom, it is far too easy to add names casually. That creates calendar congestion and hidden waste. Smaller meetings are usually sharper, faster and more accountable. Do now: Separate required decision-makers and contributors from people who only need to be informed afterward. How long should a business meeting be? Business meetings should be as short as the purpose allows, not automatically one hour. Many meetings can be cut to 40 minutes, 25 minutes or replaced entirely. The one-hour default is a dangerous habit. Shaving 20 minutes off multiple daily meetings creates enormous time savings across a department, branch or region. Standing meetings can also shorten discussion because physical discomfort discourages rambling. In startups, speed may be normal. In large Japanese corporations and multinationals, the bigger opportunity is disciplined meeting design: fewer attendees, tighter timing and stronger facilitation. Do now: Default to shorter meetings. Try 40 minutes instead of one hour and protect the recovered time. What should meeting organisers prepare before the meeting? Meeting organisers should prepare the agenda, room, technology, materials and likely objections before people arrive. A meeting starts failing before it begins if the basics are not ready. Send the agenda early so participants can think before entering the room. Reserve the space, confirm the room layout, test screens, microphones, online links and any hybrid meeting technology. In large companies, meeting rooms are often scarce, so finishing slightly early is both professional and gracious. Anticipate questions and resistance as if preparing for a presentation. Do not wait for the Q&A to discover the obvious objections. Do now: Arrive early, check the setup and demolish predictable resistance with evidence before it derails the meeting. How should leaders run meetings during the session? Leaders should start and end on time, control participation, enforce respectful rules and capture decisions clearly.Meeting discipline is not harsh; it protects everyone's time. Do not wait for habitual latecomers strolling in with coffee. Start on time. Nominate someone to take minutes before the meeting begins, because nobody wants to volunteer once the room fills. Encourage quieter people to speak so the same three confident voices do not dominate. Set rules: no interruptions, disagree agreeably and summarise decisions before moving to the next item. Otherwise meetings become gladiatorial spectacles for ambitious show-offs. Do now: State the rules at the start, draw out silent contributors and record who agreed to do what by when. Final Summary Meetings will happen anyway, so leaders must decide whether they will remain a ridiculous waste of time or become engines for organisational growth. Better meetings begin before the meeting: clarify the purpose, invite the right people, shorten the time, send the agenda, prepare the room and anticipate resistance. During the meeting, start on time, manage participation, take minutes and assign clear accountability. After the meeting, distribute the minutes quickly, track deadlines and evaluate whether the meeting was worth the time. Do this consistently and become known as the Master of Meetings, not the villain of everyone's calendar.

In this episode of Stop Sabotaging Your Success, Cindy Esliger dives into an uncomfortable workplace reality: some people genuinely want to see us succeed, while others see us as a convenient stepping stone for their own advancement. She explains how many of us, especially women in male-dominated environments, are conditioned to be helpful and accommodating without questioning whether those relationships are reciprocal. Cindy discusses how misplaced loyalty, people-pleasing, and a lack of discernment lead us to invest valuable time and energy in relationships that drain our resources while advancing someone else's agenda. Cindy examines four limiting beliefs that keep us trapped in unhealthy workplace dynamics: 1. We should help everyone who asks because it's the right thing to do. 2. If we're too cautious about who we trust, we'll seem paranoid or difficult. 3. We need to prove our worth by being selfless and accommodating. 4. Everyone is watching and judging us, so we can't afford to be selective. She also shares six warning signs that someone may see us as a pawn rather than a valued colleague, including one-sided reciprocity, private support without public backing, credit and recognition issues, emotional manipulation, energy draining interactions, and gaslighting disguised as support. To help us build healthier professional relationships, Cindy outlines five overlooked insights. She encourages perspective taking, understanding the difference between commitment and compliance, paying attention to specific recognition, remembering that most people are focused on themselves, and recognizing that people get more of what they tolerate. She then details six practical strategies that help us focus on what we can control: 1. Develop a boundary script arsenal, 2. Address issues early, 3. Shift our self-talk, 4. Anticipate the testing of our boundaries, 5. Move beyond our fear of judgment, and 6. Follow through. Cindy challenges us to conduct an energy audit of our workplace relationships and invest intentionally in people who genuinely support our growth and long-term success.

Do you need to be encouraged? Do you find yourself on social media or watching the news and easily becoming discouraged? Take heart, our God has provided a way of encouragement, and He is our ultimate source of love for one another. What does Jesus expect from His bride, the Church? Jesus has left His Spirit to move and act for God's glory. The Spirit is utilizing His people to accomplish the task of discipleship, encouragement and loving one another. Sharing the truth of the Gospel and making Christ known by making disciples is our primary mission here at HBC. But how is this accomplished? What does it look like to walk in a manner worthy of the gospel of Christ? We only need to look to Christ Himself for the answers. Jesus left His Holy Spirit to not only be in our presence, but to actually abide in our soul. The Spirit of God through His Word will encourage us this coming Sunday as we look at Philippians 2:1-11. Jesus is our ultimate source of joy, hope and love. What does it really mean, to "be humble of mind, regarding one another as more important than yourselves"? (Phil 2:3b). Anticipate this coming Sunday, when you come into the building, to take part in and observe the hands and feet of Jesus working through His church the Bride of Christ. How are your hands and feet moving in the direction of love towards one another? The song by Sovereign Grace, "Jesus Thank You," has a lyric that states: "Once your enemy, now seated at your table, Jesus, thank you." No greater love has ever been demonstrated than Jesus' death on the cross at Calvary for you and for me. One day we will gather around the banquet table of our King. Are you not encouraged by that future hope? H

On Aon — Episode 116 Title: Navigating Cyber Risk, Regulation and the Reality of Fines In this Risk Capital Insight episode of the On Aon podcast, Pablo Constenla, head of coverage and claims for cyber and financial lines in EMEA for Aon, is joined by Charlie Weston-Simons, partner at A&O Shearman, to examine how leaders can stay ahead as cyber risk, regulation and financial exposure converge. As artificial intelligence accelerates the scale and sophistication of attacks and regulators expand enforcement, the discussion focuses on what it takes to translate uncertainty into action — from quantifying cyber-related fines to understanding where insurance comes into play. Drawing on Aon's Cyber Fines Report and frontline experience across incidents and investigations, the episode highlights how organizations can align legal, risk and insurance strategies to make more confident decisions and strengthen resilience at pace. Key Takeaways: AI is reshaping threat dynamics, requiring leaders to move beyond awareness and invest in quantification, scenario planning and faster response to stay ahead of evolving risks. Anticipate regulatory impact and act before enforcement does. Globally regulators are increasing scrutiny and doubling down on fines and potential leadership accountability, elevating the need for cross-border risk strategies. Cyber insurance plays an important role but is only one part of a broader resilience strategy, as organizations must prioritize preparation, response and a strong cyber risk culture to navigate increasingly complex exposures. Experts in this episode:  Pablo Constenla, Head of Coverage and Claims for Cyber and Financial Lines, EMEA, Aon Charlie Weston-Simons, Partner, A&O Shearman Key Resources: The Insurability of Cyber Fines Key Moments: (01:40) How AI is reshaping cyber risk, from enhanced social engineering to the emergence of automated attacks and new vulnerabilities (05:30) The growing complexity of regulation, including NIS2 implementation challenges and inconsistencies across jurisdictions (12:10) Why cyber incidents are now viewed as existential crises and how organizations should rethink incident response and resilience Soundbites: Pablo Constenla: “And the real challenge isn't just managing cyber risk, it's connecting the dots across legal, risk and insurance when a collective action is faced.” Charlie Weston-Simons: “I think from a legal and insurance perspective, the key issue becomes how do you manage a risk that is evolving faster than regulation and controls can adapt.”

Over the past three years, L'Oréal Group has been quietly assembling the perfect team, ingredient, product and marketing rollout for its next big skin-care category: longevity.  Helmed by veteran L'Oréal Group executive Vania Lacascade, a doctor of pharmacy and MBA who has spent more than 15 years with the conglomerate, the first longevity skin-care range dropped on May 1 under the Lancôme brand.  Lacascade has worked across brands for L'Oréal Group and served as the chief innovation officer from 2023 to 2025. where she readied the conglomerate for its pivot into longevity. In 2025, she became the global brand president of Lancôme, overseeing the launch.  “One of the most significant projects I had to lead was this ambitious roadmap around longevity for beauty, and now, as the president of Lancôme, I have the opportunity to bring this roadmap to life,” Lacascade told Glossy. “With this launch, [called] Absolue MD, it's really this bridge between laboratory science and women's daily lives.”  The term longevity has become mainstream since the Covid-19 pandemic, as the wellness industry has exploded in popularity. Longevity is defined as living a longer, healthier life. In the health and wellness fields, it's often measured by a mix of lifespan, or how long one lives, and healthspan, or the quality of that life. How the term applies to beauty is still being decided.  “If we manage to live longer, the first priority is to live better, and what was interesting to me is, ‘How do you translate this shift when it comes to skin? When it comes to beauty?'” she said.  Lacascade told Glossy that she sees anti-aging and longevity products as complementary. For example, anti-aging is corrective: “Correcting the loss of collagen, correcting wrinkles, so those types of skin care are here to treat the symptoms and address very, very specifically different kinds of signs of aging,” she said. Meanwhile, longevity is “treating the root cause of aging,” she said.  To power the company's vision, L'Oréal's venture capital fund, BOLD, acquired a minority stake in Swiss biotech company Timeline in 2024. It then leveraged the company's Mitopure ingredient, which works through cellular repair, to power L'Oréal's first longevity skin-care launch, called Lancôme's Absolue MD. The new line dropped with three moisturizers made for different ages. The Anticipate cream is for those under 35 years old, while Intercept is made for those ages 35-55, and Reset was designed for who are 55-plus. Each is $155. In today's episode of the Glossy Beauty Podcast, Lacascade walks host Lexy Lebsack through her vision for L'Oréal Group's continued expansion into longevity, the Lancôme launch that kicked it off, and how the team is leveraging celebrity ambassadors like Demi Moore and Zoe Saldaña to spread the word. 

Sunt alegerile anticipate o soluție reală pentru deblocarea scenei politice sau doar o iluzie care complică și mai mult lucrurile? În acest episod din Baricade, Cătălin Striblea și Radu Naum intră în directă contradicție pe un subiect fierbinte care ne privește pe toți. Într-o scenă politică tot mai fragmentată, cu o sumedenie de partide și „partidulețe" care blochează activitatea Parlamentului, opiniile sunt complet împărțite. Este dizolvarea actualului context politic singura cale de a curăța peisajul de soluții „miraculoase" și populiste? Sau este doar o pierdere de timp și resurse care nu va schimba cu nimic datele problemei? Urmărește o discuție intensă, presărată cu replici tăioase și argumente solide din ambele tabere.

This is the evening all local for May 15, 2026.

https://teachhoops.com/ It's the most common feedback from players who transition from high school to college, or college to the pros: "The game is just so much faster." But when we analyze the tape, the difference isn't always found in 40-yard dash times or vertical leaps. The "Speed Gap" is actually a Processing Gap. At the next level, the window of opportunity for a pass, a shot, or a defensive rotation shrinks from a second to a fraction of a second. If you haven't trained your players' Decision IQ, they will look like they're playing in slow motion, regardless of their athletic "measurables." In high school, a talented player can often "catch, hold, and survey." At the next level, that "hold" is a turnover or a blocked shot. We preach the "Zero-Second Decision"—players must know what they are going to do with the ball before it touches their hands. The "Mental Loading" Phase: While the ball is in flight, the player must scan the floor, locate the help-side defender, and identify the "Closeout Speed" of their primary defender. Rep Density: This isn't taught through lectures; it's taught through high-rep, small-sided games (2v2, 3v3) where the constraints are tight and the pressure is constant. The biggest shock for a freshman is the "Closing Speed." In high school, a "contested" shot often means a hand is in the general vicinity. In the college or pro game, a closeout is a violent, high-speed athletic event. This drastically changes the math of Effective Field Goal Percentage (eFG%): If a player's release is 0.2 seconds too slow, their eFG% doesn't just drop—it disappears because the shot never gets off. To prepare them, your drills must simulate "uncomfortable" pressure. If your players aren't failing in practice due to speed, your practice isn't fast enough. Physical speed is a talent; "Next Play" Speed is a choice. The fastest teams in the country (like those in the Jay Wright or Tony Bennett coaching trees) aren't always the most athletic; they are the most disciplined. The Transition of Vision: The moment a shot hits the rim, the brain must switch from "Scorer" to "Rebounder" or "Transition Defender." Eliminating "Hang-Time": We define "Hang-Time" as the 2–3 seconds players spend complaining to refs or hanging their heads after a mistake. At the next level, that hang-time results in a 5v4 advantage for the opponent. To build a "fast" team, you must ruthlessly eliminate emotional hang-time. Coach's Insight: "Speed isn't about running faster; it's about thinking faster. If you want to play at the next level, you have to sharpen your mind until it moves at the speed of the whistle." Think of the Trading Card Market. When a new rookie (like an Alex Sarr) hits the floor, the market moves at "Next Level" speed. A card that was worth $100 at 7:00 PM might be worth $40 by 9:00 PM if he struggles in his debut. Just like on the court, those who can't process the information and act with "Zero-Second" decisiveness are the ones who get left behind holding the bag.

Episode Overview In this episode of the Agent to CEO Podcast, John Kitchens sits down with entrepreneurs Damien and Jessica Zouaoui, founders of Oakwell Beer Spa, to unpack one of the most creative and experience-driven business models in hospitality today. What started as two corporate professionals living in New York City turned into a 14-month trip around the world searching for the perfect business idea. That journey eventually led them to a concept almost nobody in America had seen before:

David Daoud criticizes the U.S. for accepting the linkage between Iranian and Lebanese negotiations, which provides Hezbollah "breathing room" to regenerate. He anticipates Hezbollah will avoid immediate conflict to focus on long-term rearmament and social rebuilding, eventually emerging as a much stronger threat.

In this special episode of Takeaway Chinese, we're going to learn how to say "anticipate" in Chinese.

In this episode of the Consumer Finance Monitor Podcast, host Alan Kaplinsky (founder, former chair for 25 years and now Senior Counsel) had the pleasure of speaking with Sam Levine, Commissioner of the New York City Department of Consumer and Worker Protection (DCWP), about the agency's evolving role as one of the most active local consumer protection regulators in the country. Important note: This podcast was recorded prior to DCWP's April 8, 2026 release of its proposed "click-to-cancel" rule addressing subscription practices. Alan recorded a description of the proposed rule which is at the end of the recording. We also wrote a separate blog about that significant development. A Local Regulator with National Influence From the outset, Commissioner Levine emphasized that DCWP is not simply a municipal agency focused on traditional licensing and enforcement, but rather a modern regulator tackling complex consumer protection issues that increasingly mirror those addressed at the federal level. "Local enforcement can be incredibly impactful—we're often closest to consumers and can move quickly to address emerging harms." He noted that New York City's scale and diversity make it a uniquely important testing ground for innovative consumer protection strategies. Executive Orders Driving Enforcement Priorities A key backdrop to DCWP's current activity is a pair of mayoral directives—Executive Order 9 and Executive Order 10—issued by New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani on January 5, 2026 (shortly after he took office) which we have discussed in a prior blog post. These Executive Orders signal a clear policy direction to fulfill his campaign promise to make life more affordable for everyday New Yorkers: an intensified focus on consumer protection, particularly in areas involving deceptive practices, hidden or "junk" fees, and recurring payment models. Executive Order 10, in particular, directs DCWP to prioritize enforcement against "subscription traps" and misleading recurring charge practices—laying the groundwork for the Department's subsequent proposed "click-to-cancel" rule published on April 8, 2026. Commissioner Levine made clear that these directives are not merely aspirational, but are actively shaping the agency's enforcement and rulemaking agenda: "We're aligning our work with the Mayor's directive to go after practices that frustrate consumers and undermine fair competition." Enforcement Priorities: Targeting Deceptive Practices A central theme of our discussion was DCWP's aggressive focus on deceptive and unconscionable trade practices, particularly in areas where consumers are most vulnerable. Commissioner Levine highlighted the agency's work in combatting: 1.     Hidden fees and misleading pricing practices 2.     Predatory lending and financial services abuses 3.     Worker exploitation in the gig economy 4.     Emerging digital marketplace risks "We're focused on conduct that distorts consumer choice—where people think they're getting one thing but end up locked into something very different." He underscored that transparency and fairness are guiding principles behind DCWP's enforcement agenda. Final Debt Collection Rules: A Significant Regulatory Development We also discussed DCWP's recently finalized debt collection regulations, which we have analyzed in prior blog coverage. These rules represent one of the most significant updates to New York City's debt collection framework in years. Commissioner Levine emphasized that the rules are designed to modernize existing requirements and address evolving industry practices, including the increased use of digital communications. "The goal is to ensure that debt collection practices keep pace with how consumers actually communicate today, while maintaining strong protections against harassment and abuse." Among other things, the rules clarify permissible communications, reinforce substantiation and disclosure requirements, and strengthen consumer protections in line with broader trends seen at the federal level. These rules, which go effective later this year, apply not only to third-party collectors and buyers of consumer debt, but also to creditors of consumers whenever the debtor resides or is located in New York City. Collaboration with Federal and State Regulators Drawing on his prior experience at the Federal Trade Commission as Director of the Bureau of Consumer Protection, Levine discussed the importance of coordination across jurisdictions. "There's a real opportunity for federal, state, and local regulators to work together and reinforce one another's efforts." He explained that DCWP frequently collaborates with the FTC, the New York State Attorney General's Office, and other enforcement bodies, particularly in cases involving multi-state or national conduct. At the same time, he made clear that local regulators can lead: "We don't have to wait. If we see harm affecting New Yorkers, we're going to act." Rulemaking as a Strategic Tool In addition to enforcement, Levine emphasized DCWP's increasing use of rulemaking to shape market behavior proactively. "Rules give clarity to businesses and protections to consumers—they're an important complement to case-by-case enforcement." He noted that clear rules can help level the playing field for companies that are already trying to do the right thing. Focus on Financial Services and Marketplace Innovation The conversation also explored DCWP's interest in financial services, particularly as new products and delivery models emerge. Levine pointed to risks associated with: 1.     Fintech innovations that may outpace regulatory frameworks 2.     Online platforms that obscure key terms or pricing 3.     Products that rely heavily on consumer inertia or behavioral biases "Innovation can be a good thing—but it can't come at the expense of transparency or fairness." Practical Takeaways for Industry For companies operating in or serving New York City, the message from DCWP is clear: 1.     Expect active enforcement of deceptive practices 2.     Monitor local regulatory developments, including mayoral directives and rulemaking initiatives 3.     Prioritize clear disclosures and consumer-friendly processes 4.     Anticipate continued focus on digital and subscription-based business models "Our goal is straightforward: markets should work for consumers, not against them." Looking Ahead Although our discussion did not cover it because it happened after our podcast was recorded, DCWP has since proposed a significant new rule targeting subscription practices—further underscoring the agency's commitment to addressing modern consumer risks and reflecting the policy direction set by Executive Order 10. Given Commissioner Levine's leadership and experience, including his prior role at the FTC, DCWP is likely to remain at the forefront of consumer protection innovation.
