In this episode of The Learning & Development Podcast, David is joined by Erica Farmer to discuss her new book ‘AI for People Professionals: Understand How to Use Artificial Intelligence in Your HR Role.' Erica shares the experiences that convinced her the book was needed now and the patterns she noticed in how HR professionals perceive and use AI. They explore what it means for HR to "get out of living in Hard Mode," before diving into the AI dividend and what it could offer L&D and the wider workforce. Erica unpacks the practicalities of prompting, makes the case for sustainable AI adoption, and discusses the role of HR and L&D in driving AI adoption and advocacy. She also addresses concerns around AI-supported wellbeing, sets out L&D's role as a curator of skills, and explores the opportunity in AI-augmented coaching. Erica also touches on the impact of AI on talent management and paints a picture of how agentic AI is shifting people development from generative to autonomous, closing with her vision for learning-led HR. Take your L&D to the next level Take advantage of thousands of hours of analysis. Hundreds of conversations with industry innovators and 25+ years of hands-on global L&D leadership. It's all distilled into one framework to help you level up L&D. Access the L&D Maturity Model here - https://360learning.com/maturity-model KEY TAKEAWAYS L&D has a huge opportunity to become the stakeholder's best friend by using AI to solve real operational problems, shifting to architecting skills, intelligence, and quality solutions. AI is an opportunity to stop “living in hard mode” by automating low‑value work and doubling down on high‑value human skills and relationships. AI should be treated as a thinking partner and coaching ally that democratizes access to support, not a replacement for human coaches, facilitators, or therapists. BEST MOMENTS “AI can be an Iron Man suit that can help you to achieve an enormous amount more than before. But if you're going to stay in your lane … then AI is your meteor. .” “Using AI as a thinking partner will help you challenge yourself and develop and start to think in a way that traditionally you might not of and therefore come up with more innovative ideas.” “If you're somebody who will say naturally, I'm not techy, then become techy.” Erica Farmer Bio Erica Farmer has over 25 years of learning and development and apprenticeships experience with some of the UK's best known brands such as LV=, British Gas, Specsavers and Virgin. Her area of specialism is AI and future skills. Erica speaks about this in her TEDx talk, 'Reforming Education through the Digital First Mindset', and in her courses as a LinkedIn Learning Instructor. Erica is passionate about driving human collaborations with tech. Examples are the 'AI for the Average Joe' podcast show, making the complex, simple, alongside her innovative keynotes and workshops focusing on AI for everyone, AI in leadership and practical uses AI in wellbeing.

Two-thirds of HR professionals say AI is their top development priority. But only a third of organisations offer any AI training – and fewer than one in five think their leaders are equipped to lead in an AI-enabled environment. So where is the gap, and whose job is it to close it? Erica Farmer is co-founder of Quantum Rise Talent Group, host of the AI for the Average Joe podcast and author of AI for People Professionals (Kogan Page, 2026). In this conversation she argues that organisations are rolling out AI the way they rolled out every HR system before it, treating people as tech users rather than as people. She also has a challenge for L&D, which she thinks is waiting for HR to tell it what to do. Along the way: writing a book with AI during a backlash against AI, why the tools push you to work their way, the CIPD skills gap, AI literacy and prompting, and what a self-driving Mustang says about human over-confidence. Also: Are HR and L&D in the same place on AI? Double down on what you're great at Co-writing with AI, and the neurodivergent workflow Slop and the AI backlash The CIPD gap: individual capability or organisational readiness? Leaders as practitioner, communicator and strategist Stress, burnout and AI 'golden time' Why prompting still matters LINKS AND RESOURCES Erica Farmer on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ericafarmer/ [verify handle] AI for People Professionals (Kogan Page): https://www.koganpage.com/hr-learning-development/ai-for-people-professionals-9781398625990 EricaFarmer.AI (speaking): https://ericafarmer.ai/ L&D Global Sentiment Survey 2026 (Donald H Taylor): https://donaldhtaylor.co.uk/research_base/global-sentiment-survey-2026/ CIPD, AI in the workplace: https://www.cipd.org/en/topics/artificial-intelligence-workplace/ Erica's Training Journal piece on writing the book: https://www.trainingjournal.com/2025/content-type/features/my-book-ai-for-people-professionals-was-a-human-first-experiment/ CONNECT WITH LEARNING HACK LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/johnhelmer YouTube: www.youtube.com/@JohnHelmerConsulting X: @johnhelmer Threads: @jphelmer Bluesky: @johnhelmer.bsky.social Website: learninghackpodcast.com

Comedian Joe DeRosa joins Vinnie and the guys for Episode 26, and the group digs into Joe's early days of hip hop — including who his "cheat code" was, the one that got him hooked on the culture in the first place. From there the conversation moves into Joe's early comedy days, the influences that shaped him, and how he found his own voice on stage. As always it wanders well beyond that too, hitting career stories, some unexpectedly honest reflection, and a run through the Five Spot questions to close it out.Of course, Joe joins right in on the typical banter with no topic being too ridiculous.Check out Joe's new special, Never Promised You a Rose Garden, on Netflix.

No Average Joe | Joseph | Pastor Bob Marvel by Cornwall Church
A HILARIOUS VINCE VAUGHN & BEN STILLER COMEDY! With reports that Dodgeball 2 is officially in development and fans revisiting one of the most quotable comedies of the 2000s, Jackie Bonsignore & Aaron Alexander react to DodgeBall: A True Underdog Story (2004) — the cult comedy classic that turned a ridiculous schoolyard game into an epic sports movie. From the legendary "Dodge, Duck, Dip, Dive and Dodge" training montage and Patches O'Houlihan's outrageous lessons to the Globo Gym showdown, ESPN8: The Ocho commentary, and the infamous wrench scene, this Dodgeball reaction revisits one of the funniest comedies of its generation. DodgeBall (2004) Reaction (Full Length Watch Along): / thereelrejects In this Dodgeball reaction, comedy movie reaction, and review, Jackie & Aaron experience the story of Peter LaFleur, played by Vince Vaughn (Wedding Crashers, Old School), the laid-back owner of Average Joe's Gym who must assemble a ragtag dodgeball team to save his business from foreclosure. Standing in his way is the hilariously egotistical White Goodman, played by Ben Stiller (Zoolander, Tropic Thunder), the narcissistic owner of Globo Gym whose obsession with winning drives the film's absurd rivalry. The movie also stars Christine Taylor (The Brady Bunch Movie, Zoolander) as Kate Veatch, Rip Torn (Men in Black, The Larry Sanders Show) as the legendary Patches O'Houlihan, Justin Long (Jeepers Creepers, Accepted) as Justin Redman, and Stephen Root (Office Space, Barry) as Gordon. Featuring unforgettable moments like the dodgeball training camp, the wrench test, Lance Armstrong's surprise cameo, ESPN8: The Ocho's hilarious sports coverage, the Purple Cobras showdown, and one of the most outrageous sudden-death finales in comedy history, DodgeBall remains a fan-favorite sports comedy more than two decades later. Written and directed by Rawson Marshall Thurber (We're the Millers, Red Notice), the film became a cult classic thanks to its endlessly quotable humor and memorable cast. With Dodgeball 2 reportedly in development and Vince Vaughn expected to return, Jackie & Aaron revisit the movie that taught an entire generation the five D's of dodgeball.

What does your life look like when you're truly living out your identity in Christ? Are you becoming who you were created to be—or just living in the shadows of that calling?

Discover how fully understanding and embracing that identity can set you free, allowing the people around you to feel both the weight and the blessing of who God made you to be.

Has God been working in your life longer than you realize? Have you ever looked back and seen moments that felt guided—even before you knew Christ? In this 'Average Joe' conversation, Pastor Jim Ramos sits down with high school teacher and coach, and friend, Wade Sims. Wade shares how his life seemed led from the very beginning—through opportunities, challenges, and circumstances that only made sense in hindsight. Together, Jim and Wade unpack the tension between God's sovereignty and human responsibility, exploring how God equips men, lays the groundwork for calling, and draws us forward. Many times God's call is already placed on you, and it's your responsibility to live it out with clarity and courage. You'll walk away with a better understanding of why theology matters, but it always leads back to Jesus.

In this episode of Stuff About Money They Didn't Teach You in School, Erik Garcia is joined by Miles Clark, Senior Analyst at Nasdaq Dorsey Wright, to explore a simple but important question: what's better—time in the market or timing the market? The conversation opens with a long-term look at how markets have behaved over multi-decade periods and what that data can teach investors when they're deciding what to do with new money, especially when markets are sitting at or near all-time highs. From there, Erik and Miles walk through three common investor approaches: investing a lump sum right away, waiting for a pullback, or easing in over time. They discuss which experiences tend to lead to better long-term outcomes and why those results often surprise people. The conversation also touches on momentum, relative strength, and market breadth, including what it means when market leadership becomes narrow and valuations stretch. The episode wraps up with Miles' thoughts on what matters most heading into 2026, what investors tend to worry about too much, and what deserves more attention moving forward. If you found this episode helpful, follow the show and share it with someone who's still waiting for the “right” time to invest. Episode Highlights: Miles discusses a study showing "Average Joe," who invests $500 monthly regardless of market conditions, outperforms market timers by about $1 million. (07:25) Miles breaks down market breadth through a football analogy: it tells investors whether the market is on offense or defense. (13:20) Miles mentions that in core-dominated markets, the real risk isn't beating the benchmark but simply keeping up with it. (18:55) Miles discusses how Dorsey Wright applies relative strength to identify which assets to hold, focusing on sustained trends rather than short-term news. (22:45) Miles explains how momentum investing rotated out of tech in 2022 into energy and utilities, then back into tech for 2023-2024. (29:30) Erik emphasizes that risk capacity matters more than risk tolerance, which is often driven by emotions about current market conditions. (36:25) Key Quotes: "We don't necessarily have to focus on protecting against the entire market washout.
