Rick Rule explains the type of ignored junior mining stock he is currently buying. Rule says recent exploration spending is yielding spectacular drill results, but the market is not fully pricing discoveries yet, creating opportunity for savvy buyers like himself; he prefers open-market buying over private placements due to weak warrant terms. Rick discusses navigating junior mining during geopolitical “black swan” volatility, emphasizing a watchlist of target companies and prices and a current bias to accumulate on expected summer weakness as juniors have been hit harder than majors. He discusses assessing CEOs' capital-raising and marketing strategies, contrasts specialist mining brokers with New York generalists, and explains focusing on the price–value gap rather than pre-market signals. Rule strongly favors at-the-market (ATM) financings for big board-listed miners, explains his PDAC “floor intel” around the G Mining/G2 Goldfields transaction, and comments on the Aurion/Agnico deal. Rick discusses trucking ore to existing mills in the Abitibi, why he generally avoids niche metals, and outlines how AI can help analyze large datasets without replacing experienced questioning. 00:00 Intro 00:41 Black Swan Buying Plan 02:22 Rotating Back to Juniors 04:47 Financing Market Reality 06:29 CEO Marketing Strategy 09:13 New York Brokers Explained 10:44 Price Versus Value Mindset 12:19 ATMs and Capital Raising 15:54 PDAC Deal Signals 19:11 G Mining and G2 Thesis 20:30 Abitibi Trucking Model 25:14 Exploration Strategy Shifts 27:42 Avoiding Niche Metals 30:20 Value Added Investor Role 32:00 Helium Speculation Story 35:08 Mexico and Carlos Slim 36:54 AI in Mining and Oil 40:49 Rule Conference Preview Rule Symposium July 6-10 in Boca Rotan, FL: https://cvent.me/XOqdLa?via=mse If you would like Rick to review your mining stock portfolio reach out to him at: https://ruleinvestmentmedia.com/ Rule Investment Media YT channel: https://www.youtube.com/@RuleInvestmentMedia Sign up for our free newsletter and receive interview transcripts, stock profiles and investment ideas: http://eepurl.com/cHxJ39 Mining Stock Education (MSE) offers informational content based on available data but it does not constitute investment, tax, or legal advice.

Independent ATM Deployers are a critical part of the ATM ecosystem. These front-line businesses provide access to cash in areas deemed too risky by financial institutions. The market for IADs has changed significantly in recent years, both in negative and positive ways, such as declining cash usage, rising AI tools and advanced ATM features.In today's episode of the Bank Customer Experience podcast, Bradley Cooper, podcast host and editor of ATM Marketplace, spoke with Todd McEwan, president of New England ATM, an ATM service provider based in the New England states, about what the past and present landscape is like for IADs.One fact he pointed to was that the market for IADs has changed significantly. He said in 2008 it was very common not to see ATMs in convenience stores, but now the market has matured and one can find ATMs in gas stations and convenience stores around the U.S.Over time, the valuable locations have changed as well. Hotels and hospitality were highly sought after in the early 2000s, as customers would often withdraw cash to tip taxis, but with the onset of Uber and other ridesharing apps, this has cut into the market. McEwan said the current most valuable locations for IADs are "vice" locations such as cannabis dispensaries, liquor stores and other shops of that nature.Of course, by installing in locations like these, IADs also have to think carefully about security. He pointed out that on average, his business loses "$7,000 to $10,000" annually due to theft, and he has to consider that a "business expense." In some locations, he doesn't stock the ATMs with a lot of cash due to the risk of theft. For loss prevention, he said it's important to bolt the ATM to the floor and keep it away from easy access such as doors and windows.McEwan discussed a number of other topics of importance to IADs including:How is cash usage trend impacting the business?What's good tactics for dealing with banking relationships?How feasible is it to provide more advanced features for an ATM as an IAD?Listen to the discussion in its entirety above.

Bob just returned from Italy with a story that should make every customer service leader pay attention.At train stations in Venice and Florence, there were no employees to help. Just kiosks. If you wanted a ticket, you figured it out yourself. If you had a question, there was nobody to ask. It wasn't a glimpse of the future. It was the present.That experience led us into a bigger discussion about AI, automation, and what customer service becomes when human interaction disappears.We unpacked a recent Anthropic report showing that customer service roles have some of the highest exposure to AI-driven task automation. But exposure to tasks is not the same as elimination of jobs.The deeper question is this:Is customer service simply a collection of transactions, or is it fundamentally about relationships?We discussed real-world results from an enterprise deployment of agentic AI where:Escalation rates were 4x higher when customers interacted with AI versus humans.Customers were significantly more likely to demand supervisors from bots.Contact volume increased by 50% in less than six months.Companies discovered that delivering bad news remains far more effective when done by a human.History suggests that new channels rarely reduce demand. Email didn't reduce contacts. ATMs didn't eliminate bank tellers. They changed the nature of the work.AI may do the same.At the same time, organizations are racing toward automation while learning that token costs, increased interactions, and customer behavior may complicate the promised economics.The technology is arriving at bullet-train speed.The question is no longer whether AI is coming.The question is:Who are you in an AI-first world?Will your company become a vending machine that happens to sell products?Or will you intentionally preserve the human elements that create trust, loyalty, and relationships?Because customer relationship management was never supposed to become customer technology management.Topics discussed:Anthropic's AI exposure findingsWhy task automation doesn't automatically eliminate jobsThe difference between transactional and relational serviceReal-world lessons from agentic AI deploymentsRising escalation rates with AI interactionsThe hidden cost of token consumptionWhy customers treat bots differently than humansThe future role of human agentsHow leaders should rethink customer service strategy in an AI-first era

Bitcoin Depot went from a $600m, publicly-traded business to bankrupt in a matter of months, but the story around the company and other crypto ATM providers has been brewing for years. We happen to have just the guy on staff to break it all down.In this episode of Cloud 9fin, head of bankruptcy Cat Corey talks with senior LevFin reporter Dan Mika about his previous reporting on the crypto ATM industry's history of targeting neighborhoods of color, and how it has become a favorite tool for organized scam groups to separate victims from their cash. The two also talk about what value is left for creditors in a business model where — in the eyes of lawmakers — the societal harm is too great to ignore.Have any questions?

In this episode of the Crazy Wisdom Podcast, host Stewart Alsop sits down with software engineer and entrepreneur Arowolo Muritadhor for a wide-ranging conversation that moves from agriculture and manufacturing in Nigeria to the evolving role of crypto in the country's economy. They touch on how hyperinflation, particularly the naira's dramatic drop in 2023, pushed Nigerians toward stablecoins as a practical savings tool, and how informal kiosk networks have stepped in where traditional banking infrastructure falls short. The conversation also covers the tension between government regulation and the permissionless nature of blockchain technology, comparisons between the decline of the Roman Empire and current shifts in US economic dominance, the role of mobile payments in Africa, language learning, and whether AI agents have any real utility in crypto infrastructure yet. You can connect with Arowolo on LinkedIn and X at @armolas_06.Timestamps00:00 - Host welcomes Arowolo Muritadhor, introducing topics of software engineering and animal food production in Nigeria.05:00 - Discussion shifts to manufacturing, components assembly, and China's dominance in low-cost production globally.10:00 - Conversation explores crypto adoption in Nigeria as a network state phenomenon, separating informed users from mainstream population.15:00 - Mobile payments and kiosk ATM replacements emerge as critical financial infrastructure bridging unbanked Nigerians.20:00 - Roman Empire parallels drawn to modern crypto taxation, government control, and inevitable death-and-taxes reality.25:00 - Bitcoin and Ethereum permissionless nature debated against government wallet-level censorship vulnerabilities.30:00 - AI agents examined as crypto infrastructure tools, revealing mostly trading bots rather than foundational builders.35:00 - Nigeria's 2023 naira collapse compared to Argentina's hyperinflation, driving citizens toward stablecoin dollar savings.40:00 - US Treasury history unpacked through FDR gold confiscation and Nixon ending convertibility, paralleling empire decline.45:00 - Crypto reframed as anti-bank rather than purely anti-government, enabling freedom through immutable accountability.50:00 - Transparent blockchain ledgers discussed as potential government accountability tools across democracy, republic, and oligarchy structures.Key Insights1. Nigeria has a significant divide between its northern and southern regions in terms of economic activity. The north, centered around Abuja, is more agricultural with substantial cattle production, while Lagos in the south functions as a dense urban and commercial hub. This geographic and economic split shapes how different financial tools and technologies are adopted across the country.2. China's dominance in low-cost manufacturing has made it nearly impossible for countries like Nigeria, the United States, or Argentina to compete on price alone. The more realistic path for developing economies is to import components and focus on local assembly and creativity, which is where meaningful economic participation becomes possible.3. Crypto adoption in Nigeria accelerated dramatically around 2023 when the naira experienced a sharp devaluation against the US dollar. Before that point, saving in dollars was difficult for many Nigerians, especially those without formal bank accounts, making stablecoins like USDT an attractive and practical alternative for preserving wealth.4. Informal kiosk operators in Nigeria have organically become a substitute for ATMs, giving communities access to basic financial services where traditional banking infrastructure does not reach. This grassroots financial layer is now a key entry point for integrating crypto and stablecoin payments into everyday commerce.5. Governments are increasingly trying to regulate crypto at the wallet and centralized exchange level, using tax compliance as a primary mechanism. While Bitcoin and Ethereum remain largely permissionless, the practical chokepoints for most users remain centralized platforms where identity and transactions can be monitored.6. The historical parallel between the fall of the Roman Empire and current shifts in US economic and geopolitical power offers a useful frame for understanding why crypto matters. Just as Rome debased its currency and struggled to sustain imperial costs, the US faces mounting debt and a financialized economy that may accelerate dollar instability and push more people toward alternative stores of value.7. One genuinely constructive use case for blockchain beyond speculation is immutable accountability, particularly for public institutions and prediction markets. A transparent ledger that governments or officials voluntarily adopt could create verifiable records of decisions and promises, reducing corruption and increasing trust in ways that traditional governance structures have struggled to achieve.

In this episode of the Merchant Sales Podcast, James sits down with Lane Gordon, CEO of 733Park, to discuss how AI is reshaping software, payments, and business valuations. From merchant portfolios and SaaS models to vertical software strategies and acquisition trends, Lane shares what buyers are looking for today—and what business owners should be thinking about if they hope to build long-term value. The conversation explores the future of AI-powered software, why payments revenue remains so attractive to investors, how verticalization creates defensible businesses, and what separates companies that command premium valuations from those that struggle to find buyers. Plus, Patti Murphy's Today in Payments segment covers interchange legislation, crypto ATMs, international remittance taxes, emerging payment preferences, and other trends shaping the industry.

Send us Fan MailFive minutes. That's the whole problem and the whole plan. When a wildfire jumps a ridge, a storm knocks out power, or civil unrest makes your area unsafe, you don't get an hour to pack. You get a short window and whatever you grab is what you live with for the next stretch of chaos. I walk through a quick but realistic evacuation drill and share the seven items I would take if I had to bug out immediately. We start with the basics that make an evacuation actually possible: a bug out bag staged near the door and a get home bag already in the vehicle. From there we get into priorities that people argue about but rarely plan clearly for, including firearms and loaded magazines for security, and the car keys that turn a good plan into real mobility. Then we hit what might be the most overlooked piece of emergency preparedness: a waterproof thumb drive loaded with critical documents like IDs, wills, medical directives, insurance info, and even family photos to help with identification and reunification if your group gets separated. I also explain my thinking on password protection and why convenience can matter in a true medical emergency. Finally, we cover practical “systems are down” items: cash in small bills when ATMs and card readers fail, silver rounds as an optional barter tool, a quick grab gallon of water as a buffer, and medication so you're not hunting through a cabinet while pharmacies are closed or overwhelmed. I also talk about how your bug out checklist should change if you live in an apartment, a high-rise, or a dense city without a vehicle. If you want a clear, actionable bug out plan you can execute under stress, this one's for you.

What if you could earn $1,500 a month in side income with just an hour of work a week — and do it with a business that practically runs itself? That's exactly what Will Butterton has built with five ATMs through his company, Viking Vendors LLC. Will is a full-time engineer, a dad of three, and a multi-side-hustler who got into ATMs when his wife was pregnant and he started looking for something low-risk. He started the business with a childhood friend, each putting in some cash to buy their first two machines. The pitch was simple: worst case, they couldn't find locations and sold the machines to someone else. Tune in to Episode 741 of the Side Hustle Show to learn: what it actually takes to set up an ATM business from scratch, including the step most people don't expect to be the hardest how to find and pitch locations — even when most good spots already have a machine what the numbers look like across different types of spots, and what a single great location can do for your income Full Show Notes: $1500/mo With His ATM Side Hustle New to the Show?

Missouri Attorney General Catherine Hanaway calls crypto currency ATMs “getaway cars for fraud.” She discusses how her office is cracking down on the scams, and how to identify the red flags — plus talks about ongoing lawsuits over redistricting.

In this episode of Fraudology, host Karisse Hendrick welcomes back Marc Evans, a veteran Las Vegas detective and the founder of Fraud Hero. Marc provides an on-the-ground debrief of the rapidly shifting fraud landscape, sharing front-line insights into how criminal organizations are pivoting their tactics as traditional cash-out methods vanish.The conversation explores the dramatic downfall of major crypto ATM networks, highlighted by the recent bankruptcy of Bitcoin Depot, the country's largest operator. Marc details how local regulations and strict transaction caps have inadvertently decimated the crypto ATM business model , proving just how much of their revenue was quietly subsidized by elder abuse and organized crime. We look at what happens when 9,000 machines go offline overnight and how scammers are reacting to losing one of their favorite liquidation tools.We also explore the "hot topics" dominating the fraud landscape today:The AI Social Engineering Force Multiplier: How threat actors are combining generative AI with classic psychological manipulation to automate hyper-realistic phishing, clone voices, and scale scams to unprecedented levels.The Cognitive Bias of Automation: Why our increasing reliance on LLMs to summarize emails and messages is actively dulling human critical thinking, causing professionals and consumers alike to miss glaring red flags.The "Scam Formula" Framework: A breakdown of the universal four-part mechanics—the Hook, the Story, the Urgency, and the Payment —and how the simple mantra of "Pause, Think, Verify" can disrupt a fraudster's spell.Additionally, Marc dives into the terrifying rise of digital extortion targeting a new demographic: teenagers under 17. We break down the latest FBI IC3 data showing how AI-driven sextortion schemes are uniquely impacting youth across the country , highlighting why fraud education must urgently expand beyond senior citizens to protect the next generation.

In this episode of This Week in AML, John and Elliot cover a wide range of financial crime and compliance developments from around the globe. John opens by honoring the Foley Foundation's annual Freedom Awards dinner, recognizing the organization's vital work advocating for American hostages and journalist safety. The conversation then turns to Canada, with updates on a newly introduced bill to establish a Financial Crime Agency, a proposed ban on crypto ATMs, and recent FinTrac monetary penalties across the real estate, banking, and precious metals sectors. Internationally, they cover the FCA's preparations for the UK's new crypto asset regime taking full effect in 2027, Denmark's FSA referral of Nordea Bank to police over customer due diligence failures, and Europol's launch of a new EU anti-scam intelligence sharing platform. Back in the U.S., John highlights new research from the Anti-Corruption Data Collective on suspicious win rates in prediction market defense and military sectors, the retirement and recognition of Guy Fico, the passing of RICO statute architect Bob Blakey, and the Manhattan DA's return of over 650 antiquities to India. The episode closes with updates on the DOJ's decision to drop its investigation into Fed Chairman Jerome Powell, concerns over judicial nominees, and a preview of the AML Partnership Forum's upcoming May 28th webinar on financial access challenges domestically and globally.

In this special edition of Cybersecurity Today, David Shipley speaks with scam-fighting expert Erin West about the global fraud crisis, the rise of AI-powered scams, and why traditional law enforcement may be falling behind. Cybersecurity Today would like to thank Material Security for supporting this podcast.  Material security provides faster, more complete detection and response for email, identity, and data threats inside Google Workspace and Microsoft 365.  Contact them at  material[dot]security  From David's discussion with Erin West: The numbers are staggering. The FBI's Internet Crime Complaint Center reported more than $21 billion in cybercrime losses, but experts say actual losses could be dramatically higher because most victims never report fraud. Other key points of their discussion: Why pig butchering scams continue to grow globally How criminal operations are moving from Cambodia to Myanmar, Laos, Sri Lanka and beyond Why AI is making scam operations faster, cheaper and harder to detect The controversy around Meta and scam advertising revenue Why crypto ATMs remain a major fraud tool How cloned celebrity voices are being used in romance and impersonation scams Why banks, law enforcement, governments and tech platforms must act together How Operation Shamrock is trying to fight back through public education This is not just a story about money. It's about organized crime, industrial-scale fraud, and ordinary people being manipulated through trust, loneliness, and increasingly sophisticated technology, featuring scam-fighting prosecutor and Operation Shamrock founder Erin West. #Cybersecurity #Scams #Meta #OnlineFraud #AI #Cybercrime #PigButchering #CryptoScams #FacebookScams #CybersecurityToday

This episode is a behind-the-scenes look at OptConnect, a cellular IoT company helping businesses connect devices to the internet without making connectivity complicated. Justin Nichols explains how OptConnect supports everything from irrigation controllers to ATMs, kiosks, vending machines, wastewater treatment, solar inverters, EV chargers, security trailers, access controls, and other commercial/industrial IoT applications. For the landscape and irrigation industry, the biggest takeaway is that irrigation controllers do not need much data to be valuable. Most controllers may use only 50–100 MB per month, and often less, but the value of that connection is significant: remote access, monitoring, fewer truck rolls, better uptime, and more reliable service. Justin also explains why choosing the right cellular technology matters. Faster is not always better. For low-data irrigation applications, Cat M1 can often be a better fit because it has stronger building penetration than higher-speed cellular options. A few key themes from the conversation: OptConnect is not just selling hardware; they are simplifying connectivity. Irrigation is one piece of a much larger IoT world. The same connectivity principles used in ATMs, solar, EV charging, security, and industrial monitoring also apply to landscape irrigation. Antenna selection and placement are often overlooked but can be the weak link in the system. Multi-carrier and eSIM technology can make deployments easier because the contractor or end user does not need to manually choose the best carrier. The goal is fewer truck rolls, better uptime, and a more professional connected experience. OptConnect's experience across other industries gives the irrigation market access to technology that has already been proven at scale.

2026-05-05 | UPDATES #194 | Moscow goes dark, Putin begs for calm and for ‘permission' to run his tin pot victory day parade. Zelenskyy dictates the terms, in one of the greatest political inflections of history. Ukraine now calls the shots about what happens and does not happen in the swamp empire. Putin does not control, the agenda in Moscow, and Red Square, Ukraine does. Putin's panic hits maximum velocity four days before the May 9 parade, as he seeks to trade Ukrainian prisoners for a promise of clear skies to act the cosplay dictator one last time on Red Square. The streets of Moscow on the morning of 5 May 2026. A cashier at a corner café tries to charge a customer through a contactless card terminal. The terminal beeps and refuses. The customer stares at it. The cashier shrugs. The taxi app on the customer's phone shows a grey screen and a spinning circle that will not finish. The Yandex maps will not load. The messenger notifications make their familiar sound — but when the customer taps to read, the messages will not open. A landline phone in the back of the café rings. Pagers, last seen in 1999, are reportedly being procured by some Moscow firms. AFP reporters in Moscow this morning watched as multiple shops were unable to process card payments at all. ATMs are intermittent. The Russian capital — the political and financial heart of the largest country on earth — has been thrown back into a mid-1990s pre-digital state on the orders of its own government. Mobile phone subscribers are being warned that their devices will turn into useless bricks both before and during the Victory Day parade period. ----------SUPPORT THE CHANNEL:https://www.buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtainhttps://www.patreon.com/siliconcurtainhttps://www.gofundme.com/f/scaling-up-campaign-to-fight-authoritarian-disinformation----------ACTIVE CAMPAIGN:We are raising funds for 5 of 15 Vampire DronesSilicon Curtain for Kupiansk Vampires.

Here's why the “AI will cause mass unemployment” narrative is probably wrong. Every major wave of technology has triggered the same fear, and every time it's played out differently. AI doesn't just replace jobs, it shifts them. It removes repetitive work, increases productivity, and creates entirely new roles that didn't exist before. In this video I walk through real historical data from radiology, agriculture, spreadsheets, and ATMs to show how job displacement actually works, why demand often increases, and how AI acts as a multiplier rather than a replacement.

Send us Fan MailThe moment the power drops, your “money” can turn into a useless piece of plastic. Card readers fail. ATMs go dark. Mobile payments time out. And suddenly the most modern wallet on earth can't buy a case of water. After celebrating a huge milestone for the Common Sense Practical Prepper Podcast, we get brutally practical about a prep that isn't sexy but wins in the real world: keeping cash on hand.We walk through why cash is king in a grid-down scenario, whether you carry US dollars, euros, pounds, yen, or any other currency. I explain why small bills matter more than big ones, how the change problem can stop a purchase cold, and why “I'll just hit the ATM” is a plan that collapses fast during a natural disaster, major power outage, or cyber attack. We also talk about real-life constraints: prepping within your means, building a stash slowly, and not putting yourself in the poorhouse to feel prepared.From storage and OPSEC to smart redundancy, we cover where cash belongs (a small fireproof safe with critical documents) and why you should keep smaller amounts in your vehicle, bug out bag, and get home bag. I also share a quick update on a new fictional survival series I'm writing, The Lone Man on the Ridge, for listeners who like preparedness with a story edge.If this helped you think through your emergency cash plan, subscribe, share the episode, and leave a review so more people can find the show.https://augasonfarms.com?sca_ref=9315862.VpHzogdDNuAugason FarmsSupport the podcast.

Sometimes going on a trip is better than no trip at all and our three nights in Kyoto proved it. We fit in so much, I have zero regrets, and I'm sharing everything: what we did, what I'd do differently, and why you don't have to do it perfectly to have an incredible time. In This Episode You'll Learn ✔ How we got from Tokyo to Kyoto on the bullet train using the Smart Ex app and what we learned about IC cards (Suica vs. ICOCA) for the whole family ✔ Why we stayed at the Hyatt Place Kyoto and how we booked it using free night certificates and points ✔ Our honest review of Nishiki Market what to eat, how much time to give yourself, and how it's cash only ✔ What the Samurai Ninja Museum experience was actually like (hint: throwing stars and blowing darts are involved) ✔ The Sakura Light Festival at Nijo Castle, a cherry blossom illumination event I stumbled upon that ended up being magical ✔ Why I switched our Day 2 plans and prioritized Fushimi Inari first, and why I'd do it again ✔ The VoiceMap app walking tour that made Fushimi Inari one of the coolest experiences of the whole trip ✔ The "secret" bamboo grove at Fushimi Inari, what I know, what I couldn't find, and what I'd do differently ✔ Our full Nara day: feeding the deer (it's a little chaotic, here's what to know), seeing the Great Buddha, and why both my kids said Nara was their favorite ✔ Ramen Row at Kyoto Station how to find it, why it's worth it, and what we ordered ✔ The kimono fitting and tea ceremony at Camellia Flower Tea House in the Gion district why I'd book it earlier next time and what I wish I'd known ✔ Why I didn't book dinner reservations that last evening and why that was the right call ✔ Seven-Eleven Japan breakfast the smoothie machines, egg salad sandwiches, and the whipped cream fruit sandwich my daughter was obsessed with ✔ How to think about early mornings vs. real rest when you're traveling with kids This Episode Is Especially Helpful If...

In a time when personal safety is increasingly top of mind, author and former CIA officer and security expert Tim Beard launches LOOK TWICE, a groundbreaking new series of three books designed to give readers the practical tools and mindset to stay alert, aware and protected in their everyday lives. Volume I, (January 27, 2026; Stillwater River Publications), lays the foundation with Tim's signature “Look Twice Mindset” — a simple yet powerful approach to recognizing risks before they become threats. In Tim's timely new books, he introduces the essential security concepts that anchor the entire series. With clear, relatable guidance, he shows readers how to stay Safe at Home and at Work, from identifying vulnerabilities to mastering basic precautions that greatly reduce risk. The book also offers step-by-step advice for navigating ordinary outings — what Tim calls Out in Town — including running errands, using ATMs and moving through public spaces confidently and safely. Recognizing that transportation plays a major role in many safety incidents, Tim devotes a full section to Transportation Awareness. Readers will learn how to stay secure while driving, riding subways, managing encounters with road rage, and more. Each chapter blends real-world insight with actionable strategies, empowering readers to make safer decisions in every environment. “Safety isn't about fear — it's about preparation,” says Tim. “My goal with the LOOK TWICE series is to help people build everyday habits that increase awareness, protect their families and give them peace of mind.”  

Greg Warner In this episode of the Nonprofit Leadership Podcast, Dr. Rob Harter sits down with Greg Warner, founder of MarketSmart, to explore how nonprofit leaders can use fundraising data more effectively. Greg shares the story behind the Fundraising Report Card, a free tool designed to help organizations better understand donor retention, lapsed donors, giving trends, and overall fundraising performance. The conversation also dives into the future of fundraising, including how AI can create efficiencies, improve donor engagement, and free up development teams to focus more on meaningful relationships. Greg offers a powerful reminder that donors should never be treated like ATMs, but rather as people looking for purpose, trust, and connection through their giving. Key Topics Include: What the Fundraising Report Card is and how it helps nonprofits assess donor trends, retention, and lapsed giving Why lifetime donor value is one of the most important metrics nonprofit leaders should understand Common data challenges organizations face, including poor data hygiene and activity-based measurement How AI can improve fundraising efficiency by handling repetitive tasks and supporting donor cultivation Why donor relationships should be approached relationally rather than transactionally How empathy for the donor experience can lead to more transformational gifts What nonprofit leaders should prepare for as fundraising continues to evolve in the years ahead Mentioned in This Episode: Greg Warner on LinkedIn MarketSmart: iMarketSmart.com Fundraising Report Card: FundraisingReportCard.com This Episode is Sponsored By: DonorBox Links to Resources: Interested in Leadership and Life Coaching?

Clark County has hundreds of ATMs that exchange cash for cryptocurrency (or "crypto kiosks") and scammers are swindling Nevadans out of millions with these machines.

Sonja Cho Swanson sits down with Nevada Current editor April Corbin Girnus and our brand new host at City Cast Las Vegas, Jesse Merrick, to discuss. Plus, the team looks at why the deep red community around Ash Meadows in Nye County is fighting development and seeking a national conservation area designation, and why the Animal Foundation just flew 30 rescue pets out to Utah.

Discover the humour, honesty, and real-life tech struggles of blind life in this engaging episode of Double Tap, where Steven Scott and Shaun Preece share stories about Facebook accessibility bugs, retro Braille tech, and the emotional realities of vision loss. In this episode, Steven and Shaun kick off with light-hearted banter about “phoning in” Fridays before diving into some breaking accessibility news: Facebook's missing back button for VoiceOver users has been fixed—but now a brand new scrolling bug has come in its place. They discuss the quirks of social media updates, the joys and frustrations of adaptive tech, and the nostalgia of old devices like Perkins Braillers, PacMates, and embossers. The conversation takes a thoughtful turn into personal reflections on vision loss, independence, and the emotional dynamics of relationships when both partners are blind. Listener emails add humour and warmth, from stories about screen readers mispronouncing shop names to the empowerment of using talking ATMs for the first time. The episode blends humour, practical advice, and heartfelt moments that resonate with the blind and visually impaired community. Like what you hear?

2026-04-07 | UPDATES #166 | Russia goes offline, and Muscovites are not ‘loving it.' Cheburnet arrives, and Russians discover consequences. On Friday morning, April 3rd, at around ten o'clock Moscow time, Russia stopped working. The money stopped dispensing and flowing. Sberbank — Russia's largest lender — went down. Then VTB. Then T-Bank. Then Alfa-Bank. Then Gazprombank. Then the Central Bank's own Faster Payments System, the interbank rail that processes QR code transfers and phone-number payments. All of it, simultaneously, across Moscow, St Petersburg, Samara, Novosibirsk, the Sverdlovsk region, Chelyabinsk.Card terminals in shops threw errors. ATMs refused to dispense cash. Mobile banking apps wouldn't open. In the Moscow metro, turnstiles stopped accepting bank cards — staff had to wave passengers through for free just to stop crowds forming. Petrol stations demanded cash. A regional zoo in Belgorod put up a sign asking visitors to pay in physical roubles. Traffic jams stretched for kilometres on toll roads because the payment gates wouldn't read cards. Sberbank alone logged more than four thousand complaints in a single hour. This is the sound of a country sliding towards a digital cage. The Kremlin is the one building it, and Russians are only just waking up to the realisation they have no rights, and soon will have no privileges. ----------SUPPORT THE CHANNEL:https://www.buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtainhttps://www.patreon.com/siliconcurtainhttps://www.gofundme.com/f/scaling-up-campaign-to-fight-authoritarian-disinformation----------A REQUEST FOR HELP!I'm heading back to Kyiv next month, to film, do research and conduct interviews.
