Podcasts about Av

In this episode of the FreightWaves Morning Minute, we discuss how the 2026 AV bill a game changer for heavy trucking aims to replace a patchwork of state regulations with a unified federal framework for autonomous vehicles. The legislation would allow driverless, cab-less trucks to move from testing tracks to interstate commerce, marking a major shift for the industry. The new year has started on a rough note, as Layoffs, bankruptcies batter U.S. logistics and manufacturing at start of 2026 with over 2,200 workers losing their jobs in just the first few weeks. Rising operating costs and shrinking demand have forced widespread restructuring and Chapter 11 filings across the supply chain sector. Finally, we look at why Prolonged post office closures focus of House bill, forcing the USPS to create a transparent database for service suspensions. Tune in for these stories and a look at today's lineup on FreightWaves TV, including new episodes of WHAT THE TRUCK?!? and Running on Ice.

Brian Nowak: Welcome to Thoughts on the Market. I'm Brian Nowak, Morgan Stanley's Head of U.S. Internet Research. Andrew Percoco: And I'm Andrew Percoco, Head of North America Autos and Shared Mobility Research. Brian Nowak: Today we're going to talk about why we think 2026 could be a game changer and a point of inflection for autonomous vehicles and autonomous driving. It's Thursday, January 8th at 10am in New York. So, Andrew, let's get started. Have you ridden an autonomous car before? Andrew Percoco: Yeah, absolutely. Took a few in L.A., took one in San Francisco not too long ago. Pretty seamless and interesting experience to say the least. Brian Nowak: Any accidents or awkward left turns? Or did you feel pretty comfortable the whole time? Andrew Percoco: No, I felt pretty comfortable the whole time. No edge cases, no issues. So, all five star reviews for me. Brian Nowak: Andrew, we think your answer is going to be a lot more common as we go throughout 2026. As autonomous availability scales throughout more and more cities. Things are changing quickly. And we kind of look at our model on a city-by-city basis. We think that overall availability for autonomous driving in the U.S. is going to go from about 15 percent of the urban population at the end of 2025 to over 30 percent of the urban population by year end 2026. Andrew Percoco: Yeah, totally agree. Brian, I'm just curious. Like maybe layout for us, you know, what you're expecting for 2026 in more detail in terms of city rollouts, players involved and what we should be watching for throughout the next, you know, nine to 12 months. Brian Nowak: We have multiple new cities across the United States where we expect Waymo, Tesla, Zoox, and others to expand their fleet, expand autonomous driving availability, and ultimately make the product a lot more available and commonplace for people. There are also new potential edge cases that we think we're going to see. We're going to have our first snow cities with Waymo expected to launch in Washington, D.C.; potentially in Colorado, potentially in Michigan. So, we could have proof of concept that autonomous driving can also work in snow throughout [20]26 and into 2027 as well. So, in all, we think as we sit here at the start of [20]26, one year from now, there's going to be a lot more people who are going to say: I'm using an autonomous car to drive me around in my everyday practice. Andrew Percoco: Yeah, that makes a lot of sense. And I guess, what do you think the drivers are to get us there, right? There's also some concerns about safety, adoption, you know, cost structure. What are the main drivers that really make this growth algorithm work and really scales the robotaxi business for some of the key players? Brian Nowak: Part of it is regulatory. You know, we are still in a situation where we are dealing with state-by-state regulatory approvals needed for these autonomous vehicles and autonomous fleets to be built. We'll see if that changes, but for now, it's state by state regulation. After that, it comes down to technology, and each of the platforms needs to prove that their autonomous offerings are significantly safer than human driving. That is also linked to regulatory approval. And so, when we think about fleets becoming safer, proving that they can drive people more miles without having an accident than even a human can – we think about the autonomous players then scaling up their fleets. To make the cars and fleets available to more people. That is sort of the flywheel that we think is going to play out throughout 2026. The other part that we're very focused on across all the players from Waymo to Tesla to Zoox and others is the cost of the cars. And there is a big difference between the cost of a Waymo per mile versus the cost of a Tesla per mile. And we think one of the tension points, Andrew, that you can, you can talk about a little bit here, is the difference in the safety data and what we see on Tesla as of now versus Waymo – versus the cost advantage that Tesla has. So, talk about the cost advantage that Tesla has through all this as of right now. Andrew Percoco: Yeah, definitely. So, you know, as you mentioned, Tesla today has a very clear cost advantage over many of the robotaxi peers that they're competing with. A lot of that's driven by their vertical integration, and their sensor suite, right? So, their vehicle, the cost of their vehicle is – call it $35,000. You've got the camera only sensor approach. So, you don't have lidar, expensive lidar, and radar in the vehicle. And that's just really driven a meaningful cost improvement and cost advantage. On our math about a 40 percent cost advantage relative to Waymo today. Now going forward, you know, as you mentioned, I think the key hurdle here or bottleneck, that Tesla still needs to prove is their safety. And can they reach the same safety standards as a human driver? And, you know, the improvement that you've seen from Waymo. You know, to put some numbers around this. Based on publicly available data in Austin, Tesla's getting in a crash, you know, every about, call it every 50,000 miles; Waymo is closer to every 400,000 miles per crash. So today, Waymo is the leader on safety.I think the one important caveat that I want to mention here is that's on a relatively small number of miles driven for Tesla. They've only driven about 250,000 miles in Austin, whereas Waymo's driven close to, I think, a hundred million miles cumulatively. So, when you look back, I think this is going to be the kind of key catalyst and key data point for investors to watch is – how that data improves over the course of 2026. If you track Waymo – Waymo's data improved substantially as their miles driven improved, and as they launched into new cities.We'd expect Tesla to follow a similar trend. But that's going to be a huge catalyst in validating this camera only approach. If that happens, Tesla's not limited in scale, they're not limited in manufacturing capacity. You can meaningfully see them expand… Or you can see them expand quite quickly once they prove out that safety requirement. Brian Nowak: I think it's a great point because, you know, one of the other big debates that we are all going to have to monitor in the AV space throughout 2026 is: How quickly does Tesla completely pull the safety drivers, and how quickly do they scale up production of the vehicles? Because one of the bank shots around autonomous driving is actually the rideshare industry. You know, we have partnerships; some partnerships between Waymo and Uber and Waymo and Lyft. But Tesla is not partnering with anyone. And so, I think the extent to which we see a faster than expected ramp up in deployment from Tesla can have a lot of impact. Not only on autonomous adoption, competition with Waymo, but also the rideshare industry.So how do you think about the puts and takes on Tesla and sort of removing the drivers and scaling up the fleet this year? What should we be watching? Andrew Percoco: Yeah, so they've already made some strides there in Austin. They've pulled the safety monitor. They haven't opened that up to the public yet without the safety monitor. They're still testing, presumably in that geography. They need to be extremely careful in terms of, you know, the regulatory compliance and making sure they're doing this in a safe way. Ultimately that's what matters most to them. We do expect them to roll it out to the public without the safety monitor in 2026. Whether or not, that's the first quarter or the third quarter – is a little bit tougher to predict. But I think it's reasonable to assume whatever the timeline is, they're going to make sure it's the safest way possible to ensure that there's, you know, no unintended consequences as it relates to regulation, et cetera. I think one, also; one important data point or interesting data point here. You know, we model, I think, a 100 percent CAGR in miles driven, autonomous miles driven through 2032. You can talk a little bit about, you know, what the implications for rideshare, but I think important. It's important to contextualize that would still only represent less than 1 percent of total U.S. miles driven in the U.S. So substantial growth over the next, call it six or seven years. But still a massive TAM to be tapped into beyond 2032. And I think the key there is – what's the cost reduction roadmap look like? And can we get robotaxis to a point where they are cheaper than personal car ownership? And could robotaxis at some point disrupt the car ownership process? Brian Nowak: Yeah. And the other more important point around rideshare will be how much do these autonomous offerings expand the addressable market for rideshare and prove to be incremental? As opposed to being cannibalistic on existing ride share rides. Because you're right that, you know, even our out year autonomous projections still have it less than 1 percent of the total trips. But the question is how much does that add to ride share? Because in some scenarios, those autonomous trips could end up being 20 to 30 percent of the rideshare industry. This matters for Uber and Lyft because while they are partnering Waymo and other autonomous players across a handful of markets, they're not partnered in all the markets. And in some markets, Waymo is going alone. Tesla is going at it alone. And so when we look at our model and we say as of 2024, Uber and Lyft make up 100 percent of the ride share industry based on the current partnerships, which includes Waymo and Tesla and all; and Zoox and all the players, we think that Uber and Lyft will only make up 30 percent of the autonomous driving market. And so it's really important for the rideshare industry that when, number one, we see AV's being incremental to the TAM; and two, that Uber and Lyft are able to continue to add more partnerships over time to drive more of that overall long-term AV opportunity and participate in all this rideshare industry over the next five years. Andrew Percoco: I think it's really clear that the future of autonomous vehicles is here and we've reached an inflection point; and there's a lot of interesting catalysts and data points for us and for investors to watch for throughout 2026.So Brian, thanks again for taking the time to talk.

Epsiode 338Byron Tarry, NEXXTNEXXT eXplore ISE '26Joe Way kicks off the pre-ISE preview series (and debuts a new AI-made bumper) with Byron Tarry, Chief Transformation Officer of NEXXT, the industry initiative focused on AI-era transformation in pro-AV. Together they unpack why AI isn't “a tool” so much as a toolbox and why the real opportunity isn't slapping “AI” on products, but transforming how we run organizations, measure outcomes, and evolve the AV industry from “hanging stuff on walls” to delivering accountable, data-driven collaborative experiences.They also preview NEXXT eXplore ISE '26, a free, two-day leadership + innovation + hands-on program happening Sunday–Monday, February 1-2, 2026, before the ISE show floor opens, built to serve everyone from executives to frontline technicians.Why “NEXXT” exists:AI went from abstract to tangible (hello, ChatGPT), but many people felt overwhelmed by the “you should be doing something” pressure.The AV industry lacked a trusted, industry-native voice to help people translate AI hype into real strategy and action.Byron's core belief: AV is the collaboration industry, so we should be leading the AI collaboration moment, not waiting on others.Where AI fits in AV (beyond buzzwords):Byron challenges “AI = product feature” thinking. Cameras tracking aren't new; stickers don't equal strategy.The bigger play is business model transformation, especially around:Analytics (measuring outcomes, not just uptime)Automation (workflow redesign, not just faster ticket queues)Agents (proactive digital collaborators inside meetings and learning spaces)Culture, leadership, and the “reinvested hour”:If AI saves two hours, don't just fill it with more work—reinvest time into experimentation to build an innovation culture.This isn't just for executives—Byron emphasizes that technicians and digital natives can lead in this moment, too.Featured Event: NEXXY eXplore ISE '26 (For Free!):Registration & schedule: https://ise.nexxtnow.comCost: $0 (free to attend)Format: Three blocks across Sunday–Monday, designed for different personas (exec → practitioner → builder)Sunday (Feb 1): Leadership & CultureExecutive-focused session on leading through rapid change, empowering teams, and breaking legacy norms.Featured speaker: Richard Mulholland (irreverent, disruptive, “inside outsider” perspective—rock roadie turned events leader, now AI consultancy)Additional leadership challenge content including competitive intelligence and new entrants reshaping the space.Ends with informal networking + a reception (“a libation or two” for creativity).Monday (Feb 2) Morning: Innovation MethodologyInnovation isn't magic, it's a method.Tools and frameworks for building experimentation inside organizations that still need “five nines” reliability.Includes case studies, including a higher ed story featuring audio capture feeding AI to reshape pedagogy (University of the Arts London).Monday (Feb 2) Afternoon: Hands-On Sprint / Hack SessionSmall groups tackle lightweight problems and build:Some may prototype appsOthers may create business cases or productized servicesFocus is on learning through the messy middle—sharing failures as much as wins.Group share-outs + possible fun judging/prizes.Pro Tip: You don't have to attend every block:Come for the session(s) that match your role and schedule.Byron's challenge to leaders: bring a “buddy” and invest in a frontline teammate attending the Monday sessions to help drive culture back home.Connect with Byron Tarry and NEXXT:NEXXT: https://www.nexxtnow.comNEXXT Community: https://connect.nexxtnow.comeXplore ISE '26 registration/schedule: https://ise.nexxtnow.comEmail: byronterry@nexxtnow.comLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/byron-tarry-global/Podcast: The Nexxt QuestionAlso at ISE: Visit HETMA Booth 2W400 Also at EdTech Congress: Visit HETMA Booth T204Quotes to Remember:“AI isn't the answer—it's not even a tool.

A Vision Beyond the Turntables When Ben Savory, owner of Summit Events, last joined Janet Michael on The Valley Today in March 2024, he had just been named Entrepreneur of the Year by the Top of Virginia Regional Chamber. Fast forward to 2026, and Ben's journey is a testament to what happens when ambition meets community spirit. In their latest conversation, Janet and Ben explore how Summit Events has evolved from a one-man DJ operation into a multifaceted event powerhouse, all while keeping people and purpose at the heart of its mission. Building a Team, Building a Legacy Ben reflects on the early days, when winning an award felt like a pinnacle. However, he quickly realized it was just the beginning. Rather than resting on his laurels, Ben set out to grow Summit Events into something bigger. He shares how the company has expanded to include four full-time and two part-time staff, plus a network of contractors and live musicians. This growth, he explains, has allowed him to balance professional ambitions with family life, and to create a workplace where collaboration and fun go hand in hand. More Than Just Music Transitioning from DJ gigs to full-scale event production, Summit Events now offers a wide array of services. Ben details how the company provides everything from sound support for intimate gatherings to full AV setups for conferences, as well as photo booths, lighting, and even live musicians. He emphasizes that Summit's approach is about elevating every event—no matter the size—by tailoring experiences to each client's vision. The company's "no surprises" philosophy ensures that every detail is planned, leaving nothing to chance on a client's big day. Community at the Core What truly sets Summit Events apart is its commitment to community. Ben describes how the company donates significant services to nonprofits and local organizations, supporting events like the NAACP's Juneteenth celebration and United Way's Day of Caring. This spirit of giving back, he says, is woven into the fabric of Summit's business model. The team's willingness to help—whether or not they're the ones hired—has built lasting relationships and a reputation for reliability. Expanding Horizons Looking ahead, Ben reveals exciting plans for Summit Events. The company is opening a new office in Leesburg and expanding its reach to Charlottesville, Virginia Beach, and beyond. Additionally, Ben is launching the Summit Collective, a curated network of unique event experiences—from fire dancers to live watercolor artists—designed to connect clients with extraordinary talent across the region. A Celebration of Growth As the conversation wraps up, Janet and Ben reflect on the importance of teamwork, adaptability, and staying true to one's values. Ben's story is a powerful reminder that success is not just about business growth, but about making a positive impact on people and communities. With Summit Events, every celebration becomes an opportunity to bring people together, create memories, and give back.

Welcome to the start of a new year. When the Jewish people celebrate the Passover they say, "Next year in Jerusalem". May this year see the Messiah's second coming. The Old Testament is approximately twice the length of the New Testament; and, for that reason two portions of Scripture are taken from it daily. The plan we follow with the Bible readings comments is designed to complete the reading of the Old Testament once, and the New Testament twice, in the course of 12 months. We begin at the beginning, which is the meaning of "Genesis". It is not a scientific account of our origins - though it is 100% scientifically accurate as it is an infallible and inspired record from our Omnipotent Creator. At times some people are confused as to whether the Genesis account is literal - i.e. real - or a parable.Unquestionably the answer is it is both. Although it is not written to be a scientific textbook; it is 100% accurate scientifically and describes events that did happen. It tells us why we are here; and that God put us on earth for a purpose - "to fill the earth with His glory" (Numbers 14verses21; cp Genesis 1verses26). Genesis 1 describes 6 days of evening/morning duration. The Hebrew day begins at sundown and ends 24 hours later. Days 1-3 show a pattern - light; water; life - a pattern repeated in days 4-6. Chapter 2 tells us that God rested from His creative work on day 7 - the Sabbath. And in the Hebrew text for days 1-6 this pattern is followed - "there was a day, one ... two...right through to six". Genesis 1verses26 tells us that the Almighty's purpose was to fill the earth with people in whom the divine likeness - or character - would be seen cp also Psalm 8verses1-9. The Sabbath is the first day to have a name, which is emblematic of the Sabbath rest of the kingdom age (Hebrews 4verses8-11). Chapter 2 focuses more on the formation of Eve from Adam's side as the first marriage, which typifies Christ and his bride (the ecclesia - Ephesians 5verses22-33). Additional useful information is that the word translated as "creature" AV is consistently the Hebrew word 'nephesh' elsewhere translated throughout the Old Testament as "soul". Once the divine spirit in the form of breath is found within any creature it becomes nephesh chaim, or breath of life, which the LORD Good breathed into Adam in chapter 2verses7. Adam was a whole being and although like his animal counterparts of the dust he was brought to life directly by the Almighty breathing the spirit - or life-giving breath into him. This indicates the LORD God's intention to have a close relationship with His human creatures.

Higher Ed AV PodcastEpisode 337The Long-Awaited Special Guest EpisodeIn this special episode of the Higher Ed AV Podcast, Joe welcomes a long-awaited guest, his wife, Amy, for a candid, hilarious conversation that pulls back the curtain on their life behind the scenes. Together, they reflect on the sacrifices, support, and real-world tradeoffs that shaped Joe's career journey, balancing ambition, family, and the grind of leadership. The episode closes on a powerful note as Amy shares a message about grace and contentment, reminding listeners they don't have to build their lives alone.The conversation opens with pure “Way household” energy, Joe and Amy playfully spar over his signature intro, the pressure of being on video, and what it's like stepping into a space where thousands of listeners feel familiar, even if Amy would rather stay behind the scenes. Joe admits he rarely scripts episodes, but tries this time… only to watch it immediately go off the rails in the best way. It's light, authentic, and sets the tone for an episode that feels more like a front-porch conversation than a formal interview.From there, they move into the real stuff: their blended family, the behind-the-curtain reality of Joe's career trajectory, and the seasons where Amy carried extra weight at home while Joe pursued degrees and chased the next calling. Amy speaks candidly about what that looked like day-to-day with kids, schedules, dinner, the emotional load while Joe acknowledges the cost and names something many leaders forget. Career growth is rarely an individual accomplishment… it's often built on unseen support, shared sacrifice, and a partner willing to hold the rope while you climb.They also take a fun detour through “conference life” as Amy describes being dropped into the pro AV world with trips to Barcelona and Bangkok, rooftop bars, industry personalities, and the moments that made her realize this community is both nerdy and genuinely relational. But her sharpest insight comes as an outsider looking in… Titles don't impress her, character does. That perspective becomes a mirror for Joe's imposter syndrome and constant drive for “more,” and it lands as a timely lesson for leaders: not everyone is chasing the same ladder, and success isn't always promotion, it's alignment with what matters most.By the end, this episode stops being “Joe finally got Amy on the mic” and becomes an enduring a reminder that the best leadership is anchored before it's amplified. The laughs are real, but so is the message… Ambition without connection will always feel hollow, and achievement without gratitude will never feel like enough. Whether you're building a career, a team, or a legacy, the takeaway is simple, don't do it alone. Let faith, community, and the people who truly know you keep you grounded, so the life you're building is one you can actually live.Connect with Joe Way:Web: https://www.josiahway.comLinkedIn: https://linkedin.com/in/josiahwayX (Formerly Twitter): https://www.x.com/josiahwayInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/josiahway

Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radios app. När det talades om forskning i radion de första åren var det i regel forskarna själva som föreläste. Senare hördes de intervjuade – men av mycket hovsamma reportrar som knappast var inställda på att ifrågasätta.Först fram på 60-talet börjar vi känna igen ett journalistiskt arbetssätt i förhållande till forskarna.Vi hör flera historiska exempel med röster som Gösta Knutsson, Bengt Feldreich och Bert Bolin.

Tu and Lei close out 2025 with a sweeping, on-the-ground review of the most consequential year yet for China's EV, AV, and mobility ecosystem — and why its ripple effects are now impossible for the rest of the world to ignore.  From CES to Shanghai, Munich, and New York, the hosts reflect on firsthand experiences that defined the year: China's EV export surge, the maturation of robotaxis, the cooling of the domestic price war, and the emergence of clear winners — and vulnerabilities — among Chinese and global automakers.They break down why BYD became a true global volume force, how XPeng, Geely, and Zeekr gained momentum, why NIO's long game is finally paying off, and what the rise of autonomous mobility outside China (Waymo, Baidu, WeRide, Pony.ai) means heading into 2026.The episode also revisits major inflection points: • Chinese EV exports flooding Europe, Latin America, Russia, and the UK • The beginning of an exported price war • Robotaxis moving from pilots to real commercial expansion • Why average vehicle prices topping $50,000 in the U.S. is unsustainable • How geopolitics, tariffs, and supply chains reshaped strategy • Why 2026 could be the year autonomy truly breaks throughCandid, data-driven, and reflective — this episode connects the dots on how 2025 reshaped the global auto industry and sets the stage for what comes next.⸻

Joe Way returns to his “annual Christmas episode” roots with a personal reflection recorded during Christmas week. Using Isaiah 9:6 as the backbone, Joe walks through the four names—Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace—and connects them to a transformational year of health, leadership growth, humility, and a renewed focus on peace (both internal and relational). He also previews what's ahead: a special episode next week, followed by four weeks of ISE prep with guests.What You'll Hear in This EpisodeWhy Joe brought back the classic Christmas episode format: reflection, grounding, and meaning—not “Santa's bag of stuff.”The headline transformation this year: lifestyle change and losing nearly 80 pounds since ISE.A leadership reframe: moving from “my strength” to humility, team, and reliance on something bigger than yourself.The core theme: Isaiah 9:6 as a lens for personal growth and professional leadership in AV.A practical challenge for listeners: where are you seeking peace, and how are you creating it for others?Key Scripture AnchorIsaiah 9:6 (referenced throughout):“For to us a child is born… and his name shall be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.”Segment Breakdown1) Welcome + Christmas Episode ResetJoe explains this is his Christmas-week reflection tradition.He's intentionally letting the episode “come to him” rather than over-scripting it.Quick look ahead: special episode next week + four-week ISE guest series.2) A Transformational YearThe visible milestone: major weight loss since last ISE.The deeper shift: re-centering priorities, stepping back from nonstop tasks, and choosing what's sustainable.3) Wonderful CounselorJoe shares a “coming to Jesus” moment post-ISE: needing change, recognizing willpower alone wouldn't hold.The takeaway: strength isn't always self-generated; it can come from faith, community, and trusted counsel.AV tie-in: your “counselor” can include your people—team, mentors, leaders, support systems—especially in high-demand roles.4) Mighty GodA meditation on power + humility: the Creator arriving as a vulnerable infant.Leadership parallel: real strength can show up through vulnerability, not force.AV tie-in: your work serves a mission bigger than tickets and installs—education changes lives; uptime supports outcomes.5) Everlasting FatherA leadership responsibility theme: consistency, integrity, safety, and support.Joe connects this to a hard year in higher ed (budget pressure, freezes, uncertainty) and the need for a stable foundation.AV tie-in: being the leader (at any level) who creates security—resources, clarity, and space for others to succeed.6) Prince of PeaceJoe frames this as a 2026 focus: peace isn't just “less noise,” it's wholeness and restored unity.He speaks to conflict, tension, reconciliation, and becoming someone who restores rather than escalates.AV tie-in: be the calming presence in the room—compassionate leadership that helps teams move through pressure together.7) Closing Blessing + CommunityJoe wishes listeners a Merry Christmas and a meaningful season for whatever they celebrate.He reinforces the message: peace is personal, and for him it's found in Jesus.Gratitude to the audience + reminder to follow, connect, and join HETMA.Memorable Quotes / Pull-Quotes (for social or episode page)“Peace isn't the absence of noise and tension—it's the presence of wholeness.”“If the strength were based on me, it would fail.”“Our job is bigger than signal flow—what we support changes lives.”Listener TakeawaysIdentify where your “counsel” comes from when things get heavy—and stop trying to white-knuckle it alone.Lead with vulnerability: people follow humans, not flawless job titles.Build a culture of safety and consistency—your team should know you'll show up the same tomorrow.Pursue peace as restoration, not avoidance: be the person who brings unity back into the room.What's Next (Tease)Next week: a “very special” episode Joe thinks you'll enjoy.After that: four weeks of ISE prep with guests and updates on what's happening at ISE.Connect with Joe Way:Web: https://www.josiahway.comLinkedIn: https://linkedin.com/in/josiahwayX (Formerly Twitter): https://www.x.com/josiahwayInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/josiahway

This is the recording from my invited talk on philosophical resources for understanding and managing anger, which was part of my alma mater Lakeland University's Thinkhaus talk series, given up at the Mead Public Library in Sheboygan, WI. The original recording from 2017 was made by a local high school AV club, which unfortunately didn't do a great job with sound, lighting, video, or editing, so I didn't release it at the time, but I've subsequently remastered it to improve all of those. In the talk, I discuss how ideas drawn from Plato, Aristotle, and Epictetus can help us to deal productively with the anger that we inevitably encounter or experience. Specifically, from Plato we learn how to identify the sorts of conflicts that are likely to lead to anger, from Aristotle how to assess our own anger responses, and from Epictetus how to shift our feeling of anger into a different feeling by reminding ourselves of why people do things that we take as wrong or offensive.
