It's hard to argue against Mauricio Dubon as MVP of this Braves team. He does it all, does it with an affectious energy, and has been as clutch as anyone! He said Chris Sale is a Hall of Famer and Thursday night against the Dodgers was just another feather in Sale's Hall of Fame hat. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

   The four year saga to build a new stadium in KC for the Royals was a blockbuster to watch and we all thought it ended with the big Crown Center announcement earlier this year.  Boy, were we wrong.  It ended with a Royals worker being arrested at a council meeting when it broke out into a free for all.  Hilarious.    Penn State frat boys got busted running a drug ring and their leader's nickname is one for the ages.      The Minnesota award winner for "Refugee of the Year" is charged with 8 counts for fraud stealing millions from Medicaid.  Of course he did.      Nike is a failing company and has been ever since it paid millions to Collin Kaepernick for kneeling during the national anthem and holding news conferences wearing Castro tee shirts.  This is bad, but they can fix it.  Just do it.     The most counted on Chiefs O-Lineman misses practice Tuesday with, uh oh, a back injury.  Eric Bieniemy speaks about his son shooting his wife.    Sporting KC spends millions on an international player and boy do they need something good.  The Advent Health Championship golf tourney starts Thursday at Blue Hills as Tom Watson takes center stage as the tourney ambassador.  And our Final Final is sad news about a legendary rock band.

The Next Best Series Podcast is back as Amy Kim, Giovanni Lago, and Megan Lachinski join me to discuss the latest series we've been watching on television, but more importantly, for this free episode we're advocating for who we believe should win an Emmy at the 78th annual Primetime Emmy Awards (including some from the Creative Arts Emmy Awards). Final-round voting begins on August 17th and runs until August 26th, so now is the time to get loud about your favorites you want to see the Television Academy voters reward. Are we pushing for "Hacks," or "Widow's Bay," "The Pitt," or "Pluribus," or maybe something else entirely? Will it matter how well "DTF St. Louis" does if no one can see it on the main broadcast? Please tune in to find out. We'll return with a final winner predictions episode once voting closes! Until then, thank you, as always, for listening.

Camilla Dolan, General Partner at Eka Ventures, joins a conversation following Eka being named Impact Leader of the Year 2025 at the EUVC Summit & Awards Show 2026.The award recognises exceptional positive impact alongside strong financial performance, with impact intention, measurement and reporting integrated throughout the investment process.The recognition follows the close of Eka' $107 million second fund, focused on health, wellbeing and sustainability as long-term drivers of value.In the conversation, Camilla explains Eka's shared value thesis and why the firm believes impact investing can drive outlier returns while bringing more commercial capital into the market.In Fund I, she says every pound invested by Eka has been followed by roughly £10 of additional capital, much of it from commercial investors.She also explains how Eka assesses founders, looking for people who learn at an exceptional rate, show high intentionality and have evidence of outlier achievement.Camilla connects that approach to investments including Runna, which Eka backed in 2022 before its acquisition by Strava.The discussion explores what it looks like to treat impact as part of the investment discipline itself, rather than something separate from commercial performance.The EUVC Summit & Awards Show returns in 2027.

In this special episode of Biographers in Conversation for the 2026 National Biography Award, Dr Helen Ennis chats with Dr Gabriella Kelly-Davies about her choices while crafting Max Dupain: A Portrait. Here's what you'll discover in this episode: Helen Ennis received the prestigious 2026 National Biography Award for Max Dupain: A Portrait, the biography of Max Dupain, the most influential photographer of the 20th century. The award judges remarked: ‘Max Dupain: A Portrait was chosen for this year's National Biography Award as an exceptional example of the biographer's craft. Elegantly structured and written, it weaves Dupain's life and work into a complex whole.' ‘Interspersed microchapters accompanying carefully curated images illuminate not only the range and originality of his photography but also aspects of his character', the judges added. ‘As biographer, Helen Ennis is present but never obtrusive, questioning and interpreting while remaining non-judgmental.' ‘This biography of a major 20th-century Australian photographer will be read long into the 21st.'

How can you prove that something is true without revealing why it is true?  That question gave rise to zero-knowledge proofs, one of the most important breakthroughs in modern cryptography. What began as an attempt to solve a seemingly playful problem — playing poker securely over the telephone — ultimately changed how computer scientists think about proofs, privacy, and verification. In this episode of First Principles, Turing Award–winning cryptographer Shafi Goldwasser joins a16z crypto Head of Research Tim Roughgarden and Research Partner Justin Thaler to tell the origin story of zero-knowledge proofs and interactive proof systems.  Goldwasser recounts how she, Silvio Micali, and Charles Rackoff developed a new kind of proof involving interaction, randomness, and a small probability of error. Their work introduced the idea that a prover could convince a verifier that a statement is true while revealing no additional information. The conversation follows those ideas through some of theoretical computer science's deepest results, including interactive proofs, IP = PSPACE, probabilistically checkable proofs, the sum-check protocol, and SNARKs.  These concepts now power blockchain rollups, privacy-preserving applications, and systems for verifying computation without repeating all the work. They also explore why breakthrough ideas are often initially rejected, how toy problems can lead to foundational theories, why abstraction and narrative matter in scientific research, and whether AI systems should be required to prove their answers.  Highlights  0:00 — Intro  3:36 — How mental poker inspired zero-knowledge proofs: Proving that something is true without revealing the underlying information  6:30 — The simulation paradigm and the meaning of “zero knowledge”  8:33 — Why the original paper was repeatedly rejected  10:33 — How interactive proofs became more powerful than conventional proofs  13:36 — The road to modern SNARKs  19:02 — Why the sum-check protocol is so useful for verifiable computation  25:31 — Why many so-called “zk proofs” are not actually zero knowledge  34:06 — Why toy examples, playfulness, and narratives can produce deep theory  37:23 — The role of rigor and computational assumptions in cryptography  42:44 — Applying zero-knowledge proofs to law, evidence, and secret software  45:23 — Training AI systems to provide proofs alongside their answers  54:27 — Why genuinely new ideas are often difficult for experts to recognize  About First Principles  First Principles is a special limited series from a16z crypto about the scientific roots of modern computing — especially blockchains — told through rare conversations with the pioneers who helped shape the foundational ideas behind distributed systems, consensus protocols, economics, mechanism design, cryptography, zero knowledge, and more.  People often tell the story of the Bitcoin whitepaper as if it appeared out of nowhere. But the ideas behind Bitcoin — and blockchains more broadly — come from decades of computer science, economics, mathematics, and cryptography. First Principles is a guide to that lineage, as told by the people who helped build it.  Links  Shafi Goldwasser  MIT CSAIL: http://people.csail.mit.edu/shafi/  Simons Institute: https://simons.berkeley.edu/people/shafi-goldwasser  Tim Roughgarden a16z crypto: https://a16zcrypto.com/team/tim-roughgarden/  Website: https://timroughgarden.org/ "X: https://x.com/Tim_Roughgarden  Justin Thaler  a16z crypto: https://a16zcrypto.com/team/justin-thaler/  Website: https://people.cs.georgetown.edu/jthaler/  X: https://x.com/SuccinctJT  a16z crypto Subscribe: https://www.youtube.com/@a16zcrypto  Website: https://a16zcrypto.com/  X: https://twitter.com/a16zcrypto  Newsletter: https://a16zcrypto.substack.com/ Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Sonali De Rycker, Partner at Accel, is inducted into the EUVC Hall of Fame 2025 in this awards presentation from the EUVC Summit & Awards Show 2026.The award recognises individuals who have shaped European venture over more than a decade through the founders they backed, the firms they helped build and the ideas they advanced.Sonali joined Accel in 2008 and invests across consumer internet, software and fintech. Her investments include Spotify, one of the companies that helped establish what a globally significant European technology business could look like.In her acceptance remarks, she reflects on choosing Europe at a time when the ecosystem was fragmented and widely considered far behind Silicon Valley. What she saw instead were founders building without much infrastructure or support, often far beyond the continent's established technology hubs.She also discusses how Europe has strengthened as founders recycle talent, experience and capital into new companies, and why AI gives the continent another opportunity to build global leaders. Throughout, she returns to the belief that has shaped her career: exceptional European founders can build companies with global impact.The EUVC Summit & Awards Show returns in 2027. Find out more.

Vaseem Khan tried to be an author for a long time. He wrote widely, in all genres, even analytically studied the greats to learn from how they did it, but kept gettiing rejected. Finally, after many turned down pitches, he landed a deal for 'The Unexpected Inheritance of Inspector Chopra'. It tells the story of a retiring police officer, who is given an elephant to adopt. It was selected by the Sunday Times as one of the 40 best crime novels between 2015-20. He still writes widely. Vaseem published the 'Malabar House' novels set in 1950s India, which focus on the country's first female police officer. His most recent novel, 'The Edge of Darkness' is in that series. He also won the CWA Crime Dagger award in 2021 for his book, 'Midnight at Malabar House'. He's given psychological thriller a go with 'The Girl in Cell A', set in the United States which sold very well, and has more recently turned his hand to something like cosy crime, with his novel, 'Quantum of Menace'. It tells the story of Q from the world of James Bond. Recently fired and pottering about at home, he must solve the mystery of a friends murder. You can hear about the process of being approached by the Ian Fleming estate, and the deal-breaker that he insisted on for the character.We talk about why everything needs to be spot on as he goes through the novel, also how he brought life to a caricature, and how he managed to keep going through the rejections.

One artist joined the voting push with 26 votes while another submission had more than 300. Another almost skipped the application altogether. In this Golden Brush Awards roundtable, Eugene O'Neill, Sophie Groenstein, Julia Kenyon, Sydney Rae, and Sabah Bardhan unpack the decisions behind five winning pieces: painting a monumental portrait of Buddhist nun Jun Son while working until 2 a.m., layering exterior house paint to create a saturated hometown portrait, earning a client's trust for bright orange-and-blue peacocks, experimenting on the wall to recreate coffee-watercolor texture, and wrestling with a human figure and one particularly stubborn set of hands inside a Denver restaurant. The recognition gave each artist fresh evidence that the risky idea, unfamiliar technique, or last-minute submission was worth following through.Eugene O'Neill, Sophie Groenstein, Julia Kenyon, Sydney Rae, and Sabah Bardhan are the artists behind five winning projects from Zibra's 2025 Golden Brush Awards.

Before the internet could become a place to bank or transact, it needed a way for strangers to know who they were talking to, and whether a message could be trusted. Turing Award winners Ron Rivest, Adi Shamir, and Leonard Adleman helped invent it. In this episode of First Principles, Rivest tells the story of how they developed RSA, the first practical public-key cryptosystem. Their breakthrough made it possible to encrypt information, verify identities, and authenticate messages across an open network without requiring participants to meet or exchange a secret in advance — laying essential groundwork for the secure internet and, decades later, blockchains. Rivest joins Tim Roughgarden, Head of Research at a16z crypto and Professor of Computer Science at Columbia University, and Dan Boneh — Professor of Computer Science at Stanford University, a16z crypto Senior Research Advisor, and the “B” in BLS signatures — for a conversation about the origins and future of modern cryptography. They trace the field from its early days, when most cryptographic research was classified and even the meaning of “security” had not been formally defined, through the publication of the Diffie-Hellman paper and the open problem that ultimately led to RSA. Rivest recounts the night the core idea came together, why the difficulty of factoring made the system plausible, and why no one initially knew whether it would survive sustained attempts to break it. The conversation also explores the other cryptographic primitives that underpin blockchains and the modern internet. Rivest explains why digital signatures interested him even more than encryption, how he designed the MD family of cryptographic hash functions, and why standards such as RSA, DSA, and SHA were shaped as much by politics, patents, and government pressure as by mathematics. Finally, Rivest shares his unusually candid views on quantum computing, post-quantum security, and the deeper theoretical possibility that P could equal NP. Either development could threaten the foundations of modern cryptography — but, as Rivest argues, cryptographers have a responsibility to prepare for even the worst-case scenarios. Highlights 00:00 – Intro: the two problems that could break modern cryptography 01:10 – Why Ron Rivest's work underpins the internet and blockchains 08:10 – Before public-key cryptography, there was no theory of security 11:05 – The open problem that led to RSA 13:55 – The night Ron Rivest discovered the core idea behind RSA 17:55 – Why digital signatures were the real breakthrough 19:14 – The RSA challenge — and a prediction that was off by quadrillions of years 28:33 – How government pressure shaped cryptographic standards 30:36 – Designing the hash functions that made digital signatures practical 33:26 – The Fiat–Shamir transformation, explained 38:04 – Building a cryptography company before the web existed 42:31 – Will quantum computers ever become powerful enough to break RSA? 48:02 – The cryptography securing the internet, elections, and everyday life 50:11 – What surprised Dan: Quantum giveth and quantum taketh away About First Principles First Principles is a special limited series from a16z crypto about the scientific roots of modern computing — especially blockchains — told through rare conversations with the pioneers who helped shape the foundational ideas behind distributed systems, consensus protocols, economics, mechanism design, cryptography, zero knowledge, and more.

The University of Kentucky Alumni Association established the Great Teacher Awards in 1961 to recognize outstanding teaching at UK. More than 300 faculty members have received the honor, and nominations may only be submitted by current students. Honorees must demonstrate exceptional knowledge of their subject, innovative teaching, and a strong commitment to students inside and outside the classroom. On this episode of Behind the Blue, Steve Shaffer speaks with 2026 award recipient ToniMarie Marchioni, professor of oboe in the UK College of Fine Arts, about the highly personal nature of one-on-one music instruction, the connection between performing and teaching, and her goal of helping students become independent problem-solvers who carry lessons in excellence, accountability and integrity far beyond the oboe studio.

In this episode of Ruled by Reason, guest host Roger Noll, Professor of Economics Emeritus at Stanford University and a member of the Jerry S. Cohen Award Selection Committee, sits down with Mark Lemley, the William H. Neukom Professor of Law at Stanford Law School. The two discuss Professor Lemley's award-winning article, Anticompetitive Directors, 125 Colum. L. Rev. 1939 (2025), co-authored with Professor Rory Van Loo of the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania and Lane Miles, a 2025 graduate of Stanford Law School. The article won the 24th Annual Jerry S. Cohen Memorial Fund Writing Award, presented on June 4 at AAI's 2026 Annual Policy Conference, Competition Policy, Journalism, and the Promotion of Truth Regarding Public Matters. The article provides the first large-scale analysis of interlocking directorates involving both public and private companies and finds 2,309 instances of individuals sitting on the boards of companies that are direct competitors. It meaningfully advances our understanding of the scope and competitive significance of interlocking boards, while proposing legal and structural reforms to address the problem.

You can find Alix E. Harrow at www.alixeharrow.wixsite.com or on IG at @alix.e.harrow   Carrie and I are still reading and resting on our summer hiatus but we are continuing our summer replay series of award winners!   This week we are going way back in the archives to the fall of 2019, the first season of our podcast.  We took a roadtrip from Louisville to Berea, KY to meet up with Alix E. Harrow, a Hugo and British Fantasy award winner and a finalist for the Nebula, Locus, and Goodreads Choice Awards.  And she is a New York Times best-selling author.  At the time of our interview, her debut novel The Ten Thousand Doors of January had been released and one of her short stories had just won the Hugo.  Currently her most recent novel The Everlasting is a finalist for the Hugo Award for Best Novel. The Hugo is science fiction and fantasy's most prestigious annual award.   Because this interview was recorded in a library with tall ceilings, not in a studio, and because we were definitely newbies at podcasting with a different format, this episode will sound a lot different than those today. But we hope you'll enjoy hearing Alix talk about her influences and her view of sci-fi fantasy early on in her writing career.   We will be back July 22 with an all new episode.  Happy Reading!  

In this episode, podcast co-hosts Dr. Dwight Stoll and Dr. James Grinias talk with two recent award winners live from the Pittcon conference in San Antonio, Texas: Dr. Bob Pirok and Dr. Justin Godinho. Dr. Bob Pirok is an Associate Professor at the University of Amsterdam in the Netherlands, where he also completed his Ph.D. under the direction of Professor Peter Schoenmakers. He is an expert in multi-dimensional chromatography and the application of machine learning within the field. At Pittcon we celebrated his receipt of the Emerging Leader in Chromatography Award, presented by LCGC International Magazine. Dr. Justin Godinho is a Senior Principal Scientist at GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) in Upper Providence, Pennsylvania. He completed his undergraduate work at Davidson College and his Ph.D. under the direction of Professor Jim Jorgenson at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Before joining GSK, he worked in the column manufacturing business with Advanced Materials Technology. He is a recognized expert in column technology at both capillary and analytical scales, as well as the analysis of small and biotherapeutic molecules. At this year's conference, he received the Young Investigator in Separation Science Award, sponsored by the ACS Division of Analytical Chemistry. In the conversation, we discuss the recent award sessions for both guests and the evolution of their respective careers. We explore Justin's transition from fundamental column packing research to biopharmaceutical applications at GSK, touching on the ongoing need for protein-suitable columns, capillary-scale techniques, and the Hydrophobic Subtraction Model column database. We then shift to Bob's research on automated method development discussed at the meeting. This includes a deep dive into data-driven chromatography, the complexities involved in establishing effective Chromatographic Response Functions (CRFs), and why setting realistic expectations for artificial intelligence and automated method development is critical to avoiding a future "AI winter."

GRAMMY® Balloted Club Nouveau, Timex Social ClubGrammy Award Balloted singer and music label executive, Jay King, was elected CEO/President of the California Black Chamber of Commerce (CBCC) in June of 2019.GRAMMY® Award Balloted Jay King/Club Nouveau's music & samples have been featured in many TV & Film Soundtracks including the #1 Hit Movie "US" by Director Jordan Peele! "Jealousy" also made an appearance on the soundtrack for the film Modern Girls. "Why You Treat Me So Bad" was interpolated by the hip-hop duo Luniz, on its hit single "I Got 5 on It", and subsequently by rapper/record producer Puff Daddy on his #1 R&B single "Satisfy You".This week, I look at how a brand can stay relevant decade after decade.As a veteran mogul Jay King brings as much humility to the field as he does what has been called his genius. With three decades of continuous achievements in music, management, film/TV/radio, consulting and publishing; King has made an indelible impression. He claims Northern California in general as his hometown due to a nomadic youth spent between many of the Bay Area's cities; as well as Alaska for birthing his career. There was a deep musical undercurrent added to his early years by a clan which boasted a number of ministers, extending from his great-grandfather through a number of cousins, who all played instruments as well. His great uncle, Saunders King, a respected jazz/blues guitarist, offered the West Coast the first family hit in the 1940's—‘The S.K. Blues'—adding to the musical backdrop of King's childhood. In 1986, King starting the independent record label JAY Records to release the Timex Social Club hit ‘Rumors' and ushered in the biggest selling single of 1986 (3.5 million copies) and becoming the #1 R&B single on the Billboard Charts. With a Top 10 single on the Billboard Pop charts for over 56 weeks, King watched his life change as his music became an unprecedented hit. What he'd produced was history-making, as nobody had before taken an R&B song from an indie label to such heights. Although having independently produced, pressed and marketed his own music King was without the money to compete at radio plays and had to be creative with promoting. “There were challenges. You couldn't reach out to stores, and social media didn't exist then so you couldn't let people know with a click of a button that you had something out. You had to get out and hustle. People were making fun of me and laughing because I was out hustling records.” Bypassing traditional methods, King utilized Macola Records because of its position as an indie manufacturer with no association to a major label.Club Nouveau's music is in heavy demand commercially in movies and is sampled in many of today's artists hit makers like Ashanti, Chris Brown and many more.The group is STILL on the scene, performing hundreds of LIVE concert a year & recording NEW music!© 2026 All Rights Reserved© 2026  Building Abundant Success!!Join Me on ~ iHeart Media @ https://tinyurl.com/iHeartBASSpot Me on Spotify: https://tinyurl.com/yxuy23baAmazon Music ~ https://tinyurl.com/AmzBASAudacy:  https://tinyurl.com/BASAud

Be intentional. Design Your New Life in Retirement. Our next groups start in September. The very early registration discount ends June 21st. Learn more. What if everything you've been told about retirement is quietly working against you? John Coleman has spent his career around money and purpose, which makes his message all the more striking: money is a tool, not the point. In his new book, Good Money: Six Steps to Building a Financial Life with Purpose, he rethinks personal finance around human flourishing, and one of his steps reframes retirement itself: save for freedom, not retirement. We explore why the conventional retirement script, a withdrawl into pure leisure, carries real costs to meaning, community, and health; how continued, self-directed work changes both the math and the meaning of your plan; why your worth is never your net worth; and how to design your next chapter deliberately. It's a conversation that bridges the financial and non-financial sides of retirement, looks at retirement and purpose, and gives you a fresh way to think about what comes next. John Coleman joins us from Atlanta. ________________________ Bio John Coleman is the author of Good Money: Six Steps to Building a Financial Life with Purpose and The HBR Guide to Crafting Your Purpose.

Money is good only in so much as you use it for things that build flourishing in your lives and the lives of others.”  On Identity “Too often we fall into making our identity the things that are easiest to measure rather than things that are most important.” On Purpose “I believe purpose is a thing that's built, not found.

Patricia Delgado: From Principal Ballerina to Tony Award Winner Growing up Cuban-American in Miami, Patricia Delgado found her love of performance early and spent seventeen years with Miami City Ballet, a decade of that as a principal dancer. But when she faced a series of injuries, she was forced to confront a question she wasn't ready to answer: what comes next? In this episode, Patricia opens up about the physical and emotional toll of stepping away from the only identity she had ever known, how she found her way into choreography alongside her husband Justin Peck, and what it meant to reconnect with her Cuban roots through the Broadway hit Buena Vista Social Club, leading her to be the first Latina to win a Tony Award for Best Choreography.
