To the surprise of everyone despite Prey doing well critically and among audiences, we have two new installments of the Predator franchise in 2025. The first hit Hulu earlier this year. Under the help of Prey's Dan Trachtenberg, he chose to tell the next chapter as "chapters" in animation. In addition, it's an anthology that actually reconnects together all the stories both new and old. How do we feel about this radical new direction and what is our excitement about Predator: Badlands? Tune in next week to hear our thoughts, rankings on the series and our first retro of 2026! Disclaimer: We did review Prey upon it's release in 2022. It was part of our AVP retro that led into it as a new release. To listen to those reviews, please visit our archives!
In this episode, Lisa and Rick discuss:How a student's choice of future intended major impacts their college admissions chancesThe role of holistic review in determining “Fit To Major” (FTM)The challenges students face when trying to change majors after admissionWhy flexibility is essential in the college application processKey Takeaways: Colleges often evaluate whether a student's academic choices and extracurricular activities align with their intended major, so applying without evidence of interest in that field can weaken an application, even at schools that do not directly admit by major.Some universities, particularly for highly competitive majors like computer science and business, have strict policies that prevent or limit students from switching into these programs after enrollment, making initial major selection a critical decision.Admissions officers look for patterns of demonstrated interest in their major, expecting engineering applicants to take advanced math and science courses or business applicants to show entrepreneurial involvement, which helps determine if a student is truly prepared for their chosen major.Students who remain open to alternative entry pathways—such as summer admissions, starting at a different campus, or transferring later—increase their chances of reaching their academic and career goals, even if they don't initially get into their first-choice program. “The more kids can put themselves in a position where they have choices and options, the better off they're going to be.” – Rick ClarkAbout Rick Clark: Rick Clark is Georgia Tech's inaugural Executive Director for Strategic Student Access, leading efforts to expand enrollment, access, and affordability. Previously, he spent 15 years as AVP and Executive Director of Undergraduate Admission, strengthening Tech's brand, academic profile, and enrollment. He serves on national councils, including NACAC's Committee on Leadership in College Admission, and speaks at U.S. embassies on higher education.

In this episode, Claire Souch is joined by Tom Philp, CEO of Maximum Information; James Lay, AVP of Product Management at Verisk; and Stephen Martin, Head of Catastrophe Modelling at Westfield Specialty, for a timely discussion on the future of catastrophe model evaluation, and why it's no longer enough to simply trust what's in the black box. As new specialist model vendors emerge and market expectations evolve, the panel unpacks a growing demand for transparency, interoperability and smarter ways to adopt models that fit real-world portfolios. At the heart of the conversation is a shared belief: the industry doesn't just need more models, it needs better ways to evaluate and use them. In this conversation, they explore: Why traditional model validation no longer meets the needs of modern risk teams The shift from 'black box' outputs to meaningful model evaluation that supports business decisions How tools from Maximum Information and Verisk's Model Exchange reduce the burden on small or lean teams The role of Oasis as a framework for opening up access across multiple model vendors Why standardisation and open data formats are essential for meaningful interoperability The growing role of niche vendors in reshaping perceptions of model transparency How automation is changing the regulatory and investor reporting game Why this is more than a tech upgrade—it's a cultural reset in catastrophe modelling Sign up to the InsTech newsletter for a fresh view on the world every Wednesday morning.

Learn why cash flow calculation requires K-1 forms and discover relationship-building opportunities hidden within the annual review process.WHAT YOU WILL LEARN IN THIS EPISODE:✅ How to handle uncooperative borrowers during the annual review season, including escalation strategies like formal demand letters and default rate implementation when borrower financial statements aren't provided.✅ Why K-1 forms are essential for accurate cash flow calculation and how they reveal distributions and contributions that standard tax returns cannot show, making them critical for proper credit analysis.✅ How to update your commercial lending compliance policies to focus resources on high-risk loans rather than reviewing every small business loan in your portfolio, improving efficiency while maintaining regulatory standards.✅ How annual reviews create sales opportunities to identify needs like lines of credit or refinancing options while monitoring portfolio health and strengthening business services relationships.Subscribe to Credit Union Conversations for the latest credit union trends and insights on loan volume and business lending!

In contrast, smaller loans, such as vehicle financing, require minimal oversight for efficient portfolio management.RESOURCES MENTIONED: Mark Ritter - WebsiteMark Ritter - LinkedInMBFS WebsiteSEO...

This week we're talking all about the Predator matters. From comics to films and the lore that its steeped in - yes, even AVP - we dig into why this film that began with Jean-Claude Van Damme in a read monster suit jumping over logs became one of the cornerstones of action and science fiction in the 1980s, 90s, and today. Adrian leads us through the history of the franchise, its technical effects wonders, and more. This is a rerelease of a May 2020 episode with an introduction from Jason to celebrate the release of Predator: Badlands.
Pharmacy and Therapeutics (P&T) committees historically operated at the individual hospital level but have evolved into enterprise-wide governance programs due to health system expansion, unprecedented clinical and financial complexity of care, and the emergence of high impact and novel therapeutics. To address this, the Vizient Center for Pharmacy Practice Excellence convened an expert panel that concluded health system enterprise P&T committees are uniquely positioned to balance clinical value with financial stewardship and minimize practice variation. They issued best practice considerations representing a dynamic framework designed to evolve alongside emerging therapies, evolving technologies, and the ongoing transformation of health systems. Joining us today are two members of the expert panel. We have Connor Hanrahan, AVP, enterprise pharmacy services, medication outcomes and stewardship with Intermountain Health and Prabashni Reddy, who at the time of the panel was the executive director of medication use and policy at Mass General Brigham.

What if a single test score isn't telling you what matters most about your readers? We sit down with Dr. Kristen Braatz, AVP of Curriculum and Instruction at Curriculum Associates, to unpack how educators can capture a fuller, more actionable picture of literacy growth.Kristen traces the realities behind stagnant literacy scores and the rising demands of reading in a digital world. We dig into why high-quality curriculum must go beyond comprehension checks to challenge students to analyze, argue, and create. You'll hear how meaningful tasks, like structured discussions, frequent writing, and opportunities to teach ideas back, make thinking visible and reveal true progress. Along with that, we dive into the power of aligning assessment with instruction -- teachers gain time, students get targeted support, and literacy growth shows up both on the page and in real-life tasks.If you're ready to move beyond data for data's sake and toward evidence that drives meaningful reading and writing, this conversation will give you clear steps to start now.

Disciplined, purpose-driven innovation, anchored in governance, data, and the human experience, beats shiny-object hype.In this mega-episode, Lisa Fry, Chief Strategy & Innovation Officer at SCP Health, discusses “purposeful innovation” that reduces clinician burden and elevates patient experience: ED-volume prediction to align coverage, early pilots of ambient scribing, and patient-preferred models like hospital-at-home. She explains the guardrails, an enterprise architecture review board, commitments to core platforms, and stage-gated pilots with predefined success metrics, to avoid the “tyranny of the urgent” and scale only what works. Nancye Feistritzer, DNP, RN—VP, Center for Care Delivery & Innovation at Emory Healthcare, talks about how bold initiatives, including the Apple hospital work and implementing Epic on Apple devices, succeed only when they explicitly align with an organization's strategy, mission, and values. Nick Yaitsky, Board Member for TAG Digital Health, urges outcome-first AI roadmaps: accept that healthcare data is imperfect, mitigate bias by fine-tuning models to local populations and even individual patients, and build trust in the same way we came to trust GPS, through consistent, measurable results and governance. Olga Ryzhikova, Founding Partner at Kepler Team, tackles adoption by starting integration where clinicians work (SMART on FHIR/SSO), designing modern user experiences, and favoring ambient, low-click workflows so tools remain in use. Ron Strachan, Global Healthcare CIO Advisor, addresses rural access, noting that resilient, low-bandwidth virtual care and platform economies can “meet patients where they are.” His own brain-tumor journey underscores how imaging precision and reliable infrastructure can change outcomes. Finally, Wes Whitaker, AVP of Growth Strategy & Data Analytics, shows population health at scale: unifying EHR, eligibility, claims, and ADT into a modern cloud/Databricks stack, then applying predictive models to anticipate ER visits, target outreach, drive attribution, and prove ROI, while tightening security with role-based access. Together, their message is clear: govern hard, integrate early, pilot fast, measure relentlessly, and scale empathetically.

Andrew Casazza, AVP of Cyber Security Operations at Ochsner Health, explores how healthcare organizations navigate FDA-approved medical devices running on legacy operating systems, implement AI-powered security tools while maintaining HIPAA compliance, and respond to threats that now move from initial compromise to malicious action in seconds rather than hours. Andrew gives Jack his insights on building effective security programs in heavily regulated industries, emphasizing the importance of visibility, automation with guardrails, and keeping humans in the loop for critical decisions while leveraging AI to handle the speed and scale of modern threats. Topics discussed: Unique security challenges in healthcare environments where medical devices run on legacy operating systems that cannot be easily updated. Strategies for monitoring and securing systems that cannot have traditional security agents installed due to FDA regulations and medical certification requirements. Leveraging AI and automation in security operations while navigating HIPAA regulations and protecting patient data from external training models. Implementing human-in-the-loop approaches where AI performs initial analysis and triage while escalating critical decisions to human analysts. Understanding the privacy and compliance implications of AI tools that may use customer data for model training and improvement. The dramatic reduction in threat-actor dwell time from hours or days to minutes or seconds. Building effective SOAR automation playbooks to handle repetitive cases and reduce noise while focusing attention on bigger threats. Establishing appropriate guardrails for AI-powered security tools to prevent unintended consequences while enabling automated response capabilities. The importance of being curious and maintaining broad knowledge across multiple domains to become more effective. Listen to more episodes: Apple Spotify YouTube Website

Who Cognixion is- A California-based startup focused on non-invasive BCIs (EEG-based), avoiding surgical implants.- Its mission is to enable communication for people with ALS, paralysis, and other conditions that limit speech.- Previously built the dedicated Axon-R headset, tested with ALS patients.2. Vision Pro Integration- Cognixion is preparing a clinical trial with ~10 participants using a Vision Pro modified with their custom EEG headband.- The system detects visual fixation and attention patterns so users can select items on-screen by focusing on them.- A neural-computing pack worn at the hip processes the brain-signal data.3. Role of AI- Cognixion uses per-user generative-AI models trained on the user's prior communication to predict words or phrases.- In Axon-R trials, participants reached near-conversational communication speeds during multi-hour weekly sessions.4. Opportunities & ChallengesAdvantages:- Non-invasive → less risk, potentially faster adoption.- Leverages a mainstream headset (Vision Pro) and its spatial-computing ecosystem.- AI support can help overcome the low signal resolution of non-invasive EEG.Challenges:- EEG remains less precise than implanted BCIs, so decoding speed and reliability must improve.- The hardware still involves extra components (headband, hip pack) and must be ergonomic and socially acceptable.- Regulatory hurdles: moving from small clinical trial to FDA-approved assistive-tech product.We'll revisit this topic in an upcoming Vision ProFiles episode with more expert insights and discussion.Remember to follow the live stream at YouTube.com/@VisionProfiles on Monday nights at 9 PM EST, or catch the recording later on YouTube, or subscribe to the audio version on your favorite podcast platform.Email: ThePodTalkNetwork@gmail.comWebsite: ThePodTalk.NetYouTube: YouTube.com/@VisionProFiles
Many healthcare organizations know they need an outpatient CDI program, but are tripped up by the most fundamental question: What is the expected return on investment after a considerable upfront investment of time, human capital, training, and technology? Discover the tangible impact of outpatient CDI on revenue, risk capture, provider alignment, and compliance in this special session of Off the Record. Jason Jobes, Senior Vice President, Solutions, Norwood, and Carol Ann Hudson, AVP of Quality and Clinical Operations and Population Health for Lifepoint Health first presented this popular session at the ACDIS 2026 national conference and later for a select virtual audience, and I'm pleased to bring it to my listeners. You'll walk away with a big picture understanding of OP CDI and concrete, operational strategies for transforming your program. If you haven't started yet, consider this your blueprint. Note that “ROI” doesn't only equate to revenue. Return on investment can also come in the form of denials resistant documentation, coding compliance, and improved patient care and value based care alignment through a greater emphasis on patient scheduling. All of which Lifepoint Health experienced.

Send us a textStart with a confession: we didn't tell you to sprint toward Alien Resurrection, and after revisiting it, you'll hear exactly why. We break down the wild swings—Ripley's controversial cloning, a xenomorph queen that “evolves” into something eerily mammalian, and a human‑xeno hybrid that's equal parts tragic and nightmare fuel—then tease out the few moments where the film genuinely stuns. Think the lab escape where the xenos outthink their cage, the submerged chase that weaponizes open water, and a practical creature that feels horrifyingly real on screen.We also track the series' artificial‑person lineage from Ash to Bishop to Winona Ryder's Auton, and what shifting the ship's AI from “Mother” to “Father” hints at about the saga's recurring themes of parenthood, control, and faith. There's Firefly energy in the crew dynamics, flashes of Matrix‑style cool in the interfaces and camera moves, and… big question marks in the science that asks you to accept genetic memory on vibes alone. And that ending over Earth? We talk about its jarring tone, why earlier films counted human costs with more care, and how this entry drifts from the grounded corporate menace of Weyland‑Yutani that made Alien feel so brutally plausible.Detours, of course: Demon Slayer's packed screenings, cosplay plans, and a spirited AVP sidebar on asymmetric combat done right. If you're charting the Alien franchise, this conversation gives you a map—what to salvage, what to skip, and why Prometheus was a necessary reset. Hit play, then tell us: defend Resurrection or bury it?

The Realities of Reverification and the Future of Intelligent Automation AI is everywhere in healthcare conversations, but when it comes to reverification, the reality is more complex. Each January, practices are hit with a surge of eligibility and benefits checks, straining staff and creating bottlenecks that risk revenue and patient experience. Traditional fixes like staff augmentation and manual workflows keep the lights on, but they don't solve the underlying scalability problem. In this Office Hours, Jonathan Aguiar, Senior Solutions Engineer, and Lora Pada, AVP of Customer Success, will break down the real-world challenges of reverification, explore how staff augmentation and partial automation fill today's gaps, and discuss how intelligent automation and AI agents are being developed to change what's possible tomorrow.
