There's a serious high-stakes policy fight at the heart of this.The Democrats didn't pick a fight over authoritarianism or tariffs or masked immigration agents in the streets. They picked one over health care. And the issue here is very real. Huge health insurance subsidies passed under President Joe Biden are set to expire at the end of this year, threatening to make health care premiums skyrocket and kick millions off their insurance.Neera Tanden was one of the architects of the Affordable Care Act and has worked in Democratic policymaking for decades. She is the president of the Center for American Progress and was a director of Biden's Domestic Policy Council. I asked her on the show to lay out the policy stakes of the shutdown and what a deal might look like.Mentioned:KFF Health Tracking PollThe Time Tax by Annie LowreyOne Big Beautiful Bill ActBook Recommendations:Why Nations Fail by Daron Acemoglu and James A.

“My job is to make [event planners] look like a rock star when I get off stage…I stand beside them so I can also have them hear the lovely things people are saying in line when people want to hug you and take their photo with you. And so what they need to see is [that I] was a good investment.”In this episode, Grant Baldwin connects with Neen James for an honest, energetic conversation on what it truly means to make an impact as a public speaker. Neen's journey shines a spotlight on the power of intentional focus, where knowing exactly who you serve, and why, can transform not only your business but your ability to connect from the stage.As Neen shares, growing your speaking business is less about flashy tactics and more about consistent, meaningful action. She and Grant unravel the myth that you need a massive following or viral content to succeed. Instead, it's about doubling down on the basics: nurturing authentic relationships within your network, following up with event planners, and always delivering value tailored to your audience's needs.The episode also digs into the art of strategic outreach. It's not ideal to sit back and hope your inbox fills up. Take ownership of your calendar by making outreach a daily habit, revisiting those half-finished conversations, and gently reminding people how you can help. Overall, landing more speaking gigs comes down to intentional action, relationship-building, and refusing to overcomplicate the process. You'll learn:How to stand out in a crowded fieldTurning clients and audiences into advocatesImportance of preparation before stepping on stageThe BDA Framework: Before, During, AfterDiscovering and leveraging your intellectual propertyBuilding early relationships with event staffCustomizing content for specific audiencesAcknowledging and celebrating the audience's cultureOutsourcing non-core tasks to increase focusAnd much, much more!“Every speaker needs to think about how they can be exceptional?

In today's episode, we're going to pull back that curtain on podcasting best practices. And some of these conventions are grounded in logic and proven results, and others might just be myths that we're just blindly following. I explain why I think these are legit, and explain why some of these are not accurate. As always your audience may be different than mine, but based on 20 years in podcasting, these are the just some of the best practices I teach at the School of Podcasting.Why is Recording a Test Episode before launch a Podcast Best Practice?Authors have rough draftsAthletes have pre-seasonActors have dress rehearsalWhen you publish the first thing you record, you are essentially publishing a "rough draft." Anytime you do something for the first time, it's not as good as the second.Why is Defining a Clear Topic or Niche a Podcast Best Practice?It makes it easy to create content. If I'm making dinner for a bunch of vegans, I know what I can make and what I couldn't.This makes it easier to market. Now instead of marketing to Vegans, Carnivore, or those who are Glucose Intolerant, etc.You can also lump this in with the advice of "Know your audience."What appears is a downside may be an upside: a smaller but more loyal audience.Why Is Getting to the Topic ASAP a Podcast Best Practice?Do you have a ton of free time?Look at Netflix, when an episode is over it give you an option to skip the credits and go to the next episode. When you go to the next episode, it prompts you to skip the intro. This leads me to believe it is best to get to the content asap.Why is Knowing Why Your Are Podcasting a Podcast Best Practice?When a podcaster doesn't get the result they had hoped to receive, they quit (often before their 10th episode).If you were hired by a company to earn more money, and then they paid you the same (or less) would you stay?Why is Engaging with Audience and Creating a Community a Podcast Best Practice?The previous best practice was "Get to know your audience." This is how you get to know them.This can be on social, email, anyway you can interact with your audience you should do it.Why is Prioritizing Sound Quality a Podcast Best Practice?You want it to be EASY to consume your content. You don't want the audience to strain to consume your content. Reverb or "room noise" can become a serious issue when the listener is in a car with the noise of the tires on the road. Think of it this way, smear vaseline on your glasses and try to watch something. You can do it, but it takes extra effort. We need it to be EASYEven in videos, the key ingredient is not lighting but audio. If I can see you but can't hear you what's the point.You don't need to spend thousands of dollars on equipment. You can get started with a Samson Q2U microphone. If you want to do video, you can get a pair of Rode Wireless Micro microphones and use your phone as a camera.Why is Knowing What You're Going to Say Before Your Press Record a Best Practice?I always say, less planning equals more editing. This can lead to it taking longer to produce an episodeWhile you want it to feel conversational like a phone call with your best friend, it is a performance for a global audience.Without focus, you again tend to ramble, repeat...

Audiences love it too, it builds trust. Enjoying your content becomes a part of their weekly rituals and you become an integral part of their life. Be authentic. People are naturally wired to turn away from those they don´t think are honest. Employ “real world” marketing methods, they are effective and, often, easy. Louie shares several during this episode. On social media, post in a way that gives the algorithms what they want. Invite guests with strong followings, and make it easy for them to share your show and collaborate. When you do this well, their audience becomes your audience too.  Create content with really high, rich keywords e.g. famous names or trends. You can piggyback off of them, feed the algorithms and get more of an audience. BEST MOMENTS “You might feel like you don't want to scream and shout about this thing that you've made, but ultimately you´ve got to bite the bullet and put yourself out there. ” “Think about who you're trying to get in touch with. Think about what platforms they might exist on.” “Make sure that you equip your guests with all the links, all the clips, all the things that they need in order to share your show.” "Even if they don't subscribe right away, they'll constantly have a stream of you, and eventually they might subscribe, or they'll just keep watching.

What happens when the worst thing you've ever done becomes the foundation for your life's work?Episode SummaryMy guest on this episode is Tom Hardin, otherwise known as Tipper X.  He's been on the show before, but this time we're tackling a different angle.If you don't already know his story, Tom was a rising star in the hedge fund world in his twenties when he became involved in insider trading. Caught by the FBI, he made the decision to cooperate — ultimately becoming one of the most prolific informants in the largest investigation of its kind in U.S. history. His work with the FBI helped secure dozens of convictions, and while his own case remained under seal for years, he eventually chose to speak publicly about what happened — not to excuse it, but to help others understand how good people can make bad decisions.If you haven't heard Tom's first appearance on the show, where he tells that extraordinary story in full, I highly recommend listening to it here before diving into this episode.Because this time, we're not talking about what he did back then; we're talking about what he's done since. Tom has built a powerful second act, using his experience to educate organisations about ethics, decision-making and behavioural risk. He's now delivered over 600 talks, and what fascinates me is how he's turned that into something both impactful and sustainable.His forthcoming book Wired on Wall Street is due out next year, and he'll be back on the show to talk about that. But for now, I wanted to explore what it means to build a career from a cautionary tale. In this conversation, we explore:How Tom built a speaking business around his past without glamourising itThe frameworks he's developed to help companies recognise ethical pressure pointsHow he navigates scepticism, manages reputation, and avoids turning his story into a performanceThe impact he hopes to have, and how he measures itThis is a conversation about vulnerability, professionalism, and doing good with what you've learned the hard way. Whether you're in compliance, leadership, education, or just curious about how we turn failure into purpose, this one's for you.Guest ProfileTom is a former hedge fund analyst turned FBI informant, now a globally recognised speaker and ethics educator. Known as Tipper X, Tom shares his story to help others understand the behavioural drivers of misconduct and the power of accountability. AI Generated Timestamped Summary00:00 – IntroductionChristian shares the origin of this episode, his relationship with Tom, and the context behind the conversation.06:30 – The label “Tipper X” and living with itTom reflects on how it feels to be known by his code name and why he uses it professionally.09:00 – What it's like to talk about the worst thing you've done, repeatedlyThe emotional and psychological toll of speaking publicly about past wrongdoing.13:00 – Keeping it fresh: updating the story and the messageHow Tom avoids becoming performative and ensures audiences always get something valuable.16:40 – Why it's not entertainmentTom draws the line between education and storytelling-as-performance, and how he avoids glamorising his past.20:50 – The business model behind Tipper XThe practicalities of how Tom has built and sustained a speaking career rooted in his past.26:30 – Frameworks and tools Tom uses in his talksHe discusses behavioural insights and models he shares with audiences to make the message stick.31:00 – The “AI homework” storyA compelling example Tom uses to explain rationalisation and ethical grey areas.36:00 – Over 630 talks: managing the workload and the missionHow Tom tracks his talks and why he keeps going despite the repetition.39:10 – Audience reactions and confessionsWhat people tell Tom after his talks — and what that reveals about corporate culture.42:30 – “Why should we pay someone who committed a crime?”Christian and Tom unpack this ethical tension and why context, intent and delivery matter.48:00 – Building trust with clients and collaboratorsThe importance of transparency, humility and boundaries in how Tom presents himself.53:20 – What success really looks likeTom reflects on purpose, legacy and the long-term impact he hopes to have.57:00 – Looking ahead: the forthcoming book and continuing the conversation.

Brian Eno's music opens up worlds I love to step into during trying times. And this conversation with Eno did the same thing.Eno is a trailblazing musician and producer who's worked on seminal records by U2, David Bowie, the Talking Heads and Coldplay, among others. But Eno isn't just a great collaborator with other artists; he's also a great collaborator with machines. He's been experimenting with music technology for decades. Long before we started worrying about ChatGPT replacing human creativity, Eno was tinkering with generative systems to pioneer ambient music – a genre that has deeply influenced how we listen to music today. Eno's use (and playful misuse) of technology has expanded the possibilities of what music and sound can be.Many of you emailed in asking for a break from the news.

The more relaxed you are, the better your time, tone and feel will be. Let's not forget that we're hitting wood, bronze, and mylar with sometimes a huge amount of velocity, so this conceptual/physical approach will also have a massive effect on stamina as well as shortening muscle recovery periods when performing live or in the studio.

This episode is sponsored by Lockton, click here to learn more Watch the Full Video on YouTube - click hereWhy do so many companies spend millions shaping their external image while missing the most important audience: their own people? That's the question Jan Griffiths brings to Tina Kozak, CEO of Franco, in this episode of the Automotive Leaders Podcast. Together, they explain why internal communication is often overlooked, and what leaders can do to fix it.Tina talks about her “head and heart” style of leadership, which balances business strategy with empathy and emotional intelligence. She shares how mentors and coaches shaped that approach and how it helped her lead Franco through a recent acquisition. While the finance team handled the numbers, she put her energy into people, making sure employees and clients felt supported through the change.In legacy industries like automotive, employees are still too often seen as replaceable. Tina challenges that thinking, arguing that leaders earn loyalty when they consistently support their people, not just when business is booming.Technology and AI are also discussed. Tina shares examples of how Franco uses tools like generative AI to make communication easier and more accessible for employees. Jan connects it to her passion for internal podcasts, especially when paired with AI translation, to give shop-floor workers a direct line to leadership in their own language. Both agree that leaders often underestimate how much their words and actions ripple through employees' lives, far beyond the workplace.Jan admits she used to see communications as nothing more than “corporate messaging.” She even remembers being afraid to post on LinkedIn without approval; a fear that silenced genuine voices and wasted a chance to connect.Tina builds on this, explaining how employees can be a company's greatest ambassadors if supported with the right tools and freedom. Authentic advocacy, she says, is far more powerful than polished ads.Tina closes with practical advice: start with empathy. Instead of only pushing out the messages leadership wants to deliver, consider what employees want and need to know. Ask questions, listen carefully, and act on the patterns you hear. That, she argues, is how internal communication shifts from a one-way broadcast to a true partnership.Themes discussed in this episode:The “head and heart” leadership style that balances strategy with empathy and emotional intelligenceLessons from mentors and coaches that shaped Tina Kozak's leadership approach in the automotive industryHow focusing on people, not just numbers, made Franco's acquisition successfulWhy legacy industries like automotive struggle with internal communication and employee connectionHow consistent communication builds trust, loyalty, and long-term employee engagementThe role of technology and AI in simplifying and improving employee communicationThe missed opportunity when leaders dismiss communications as “corporate messaging”How employee advocacy strengthens culture and why authentic voices beat polished campaignsFeatured guest: Tina KozakWhat she does: As CEO and majority shareholder of Detroit-based Franco, Tina Kozak leads one of the region's top integrated communications agencies. She combines strategic insight with a human-centric approach she calls “Head and Heart” leadership, guiding

Send Kevin a Text MessageIn this episode of Don't Kill the Messenger, host Kevin Goetz explores the intersection of social media and film marketing with Troy and Mark Paul, the son and father duo behind SGG Media. Their innovative agency represents over 2,300 sports micro-influencers with a combined reach of 88 million followers, helping major studios navigate a sea change in content marketing. Once reliant on TV, radio, and outdoor advertising, studios and streamers now lean heavily into social media to connect with audiences, particularly the elusive 18-35 year old male demographic. SGG's network of passionate superfans creates authentic engagement in ways traditional advertising simply cannot.What Makes Micro-Influencers Different (03:10) Troy explains that SGG represents everyday superfans, not celebrities. These creators have built loyal, engaged communities around their passion for sports.The Origin Story: From NYU to Entrepreneurship (18:02) Troy shares how he identified an untapped opportunity during COVID-19: sports fans creating content with millions of impressions but no monetization strategy. His high school friend Joe Hayes, who had built a 150,000-follower account, became employee number one.A Father's Investment and Guidance (12:38) Mark discusses putting his money where his belief was, investing $1 million of the company's total $3 million raised capital, and how he and Troy have deferred compensation for two consecutive years to reinvest in growth.The Pizza Entrepreneur at Age 11 (25:55) Mark shares the story of Troy's first business venture: hiring runners to buy pizzas and reselling slices to lazy classmates.Authenticity Over Celebrity (36:39) Troy contrasts traditional influencer marketing with SGG's approach: their creators have smaller but deeply loyal audiences, creating authentic engagement rather than paid celebrity endorsements that feel like "cash grabs."Universal's Breakthrough Campaign (39:35) Troy details how Universal brilliantly marketed the Jordan Peele film Him by timing the trailer drop with the NFL Draft and having 400+ NFL accounts create organic debate and engagement.Amplification: A New Marketing Strategy (42:32) Troy reveals SGG's most powerful tool: having hundreds of micro-influencers repost studio content simultaneously, building the studio's own social presence while reaching targeted audiences.Troy and Mark demonstrate how understanding shifting media consumption, building authentic creator relationships, and targeting niche audiences can cut through today's marketing noise to reach a “holy grail” demographic.Host: Kevin GoetzGuests: Troy Paul, Mark PaulProducer: Kari CampanoWriters: Kevin Goetz, Darlene Hayman, and Kari CampanoAudio Engineer: Gary Forbes (DG Entertainment)For more information about Troy and Mark Paul:SGG Media: https://sggmedia.com/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/troy-paul-26a06198Instagram: For more information about Kevin Goetz:- Website: www.KevinGoetz360.com- Audienceology Book: https://www.simonandschuster.com/books/Audience-ology/Kevin-Goetz/9781982186678- How to Score in Hollywood: https://www.amazon.com/How-Score-Hollywood-Secrets-Business/dp/198218986X/- Facebook, X, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Substack: @KevinGoetz360- LinkedIn @Kevin Goetz- Screen Engine/ASI Website: www.ScreenEngineASI.com

Andrew co-founded Reason Automation after years at Amazon, working on their retail and vendor businesses. There, he learned data wasn't just a resource—it was the backbone of every decision being made. To be successful, you had to dive into the numbers yourself, without a team of analysts to rely on. That hands-on experience shaped his approach to data and inspired him to create a company that helps other businesses tap into the power of their own analytics.Highlight Bullets> Here's a glimpse of what you would learn…. Importance of data analytics in e-commerce decision-makingChallenges of data overload and how to manage it effectivelyPrioritization of tasks for entrepreneurs to drive growthUnderstanding SKU-level profitability and its impact on businessThe significance of real-time data for informed decision-makingIdentifying trends and opportunities in the marketOvercoming fear of data analysis and making timely decisionsThe role of feedback in leadership and personal growthStrategies for monitoring key metrics to enhance performanceAdapting to changing consumer behavior and market dynamicsIn this episode of the Ecomm Breakthrough Podcast, host Josh Hadley interviews Andrew Hamada, co-founder of Recent Automation.

The writer Ta-Nehisi Coates was harshly critical of my response to Charlie Kirk's assassination. In an article in Vanity Fair, he suggested I was whitewashing Kirk's legacy, comparing it to the whitewashing of the Southern cause after the Civil War.So I wanted to have Coates on the show to talk out our disagreement, as well as some deeper questions that I think exist underneath it about the work of politics.What should the left do about the fact that so many Americans share Kirk's views? What kinds of disagreements should we try to bridge? When is that work moral and necessary, and when is it a betrayal?This episode contains strong language.Mentioned:“Charlie Kirk, Redeemed: A Political Class Finds Its Lost Cause” by Ta-Nehisi CoatesBetween the World and Me by Ta-Nehisi Coates“My President Was Black” by Ta-Nehisi CoatesBook Recommendations:The Brothers by Stephen KinzerRace and Reunion by David W.
