    Send a textDaniel Gledhill is a seasoned manufacturing and engineering leader whose career bridges high-risk industrial operations and precision-driven medical device manufacturing. Daniel leads engineering teams responsible for multiple production areas supporting transcatheter heart valve delivery systems—products where quality, reliability, and patient safety are absolutely critical.Daniel's journey to medical devices began in heavy industry, where he worked as a process, chemical, and metallurgical engineer at Rio Tinto, including leadership roles at copper smelters overseeing sulfuric acid plants, powerhouses, and byproduct operations. These early roles shaped his systems-level thinking, comfort with complex processes, and respect for disciplined operations—skills that would later translate powerfully into regulated medical manufacturing environments.Over nearly ten years at Edwards Lifesciences, Daniel has progressed from manufacturing management into senior engineering leadership, guiding teams through scale-up, process improvement, cross-functional collaboration, and organizational change. His work sits at the intersection of engineering, manufacturing, quality, and leadership—where decisions directly impact both operational performance and patient outcomes.Daniel holds a Bachelor's degree in Chemical Engineering from the University of Utah, along with an MBA from the University of Utah's David Eccles School of Business. This combination of technical and business education informs his balanced approach to leadership—one that values data, people, and long-term system health over short-term wins.In this conversation, we explore what it really means to lead engineering teams in medical device manufacturing, how leadership expectations evolve as engineers move into management, and what lessons from heavy industry can sharpen execution in highly regulated, patient-critical environments.LINKS:Guest LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/daniel-gledhill-a6155237/Guest website: https://www.edwards.com/  Aaron Moncur, hostDownload the Essential Guide to Designing Test Fixtures: https://pipelinemedialab.beehiiv.com/test-fixture Subscribe to the show to get notified so you don't miss new episodes every Friday.The Being An Engineer podcast is brought to you by Pipeline Design & Engineering.

    Image: Mythic depiction of PETER MUHLENBERG AT WOODSTOCK, VIRGINIANote: the guest wishes to clarify that he meant a $10 bill, not $100, in reference to Hamilton.In God on Three Sides, Jonathan M. Wilson explores how German Pietist communities experienced and interpreted the American Revolution, a war that forced believers to wrestle with loyalty, violence, and obedience to God in a time of political upheaval. Drawing on sermons, letters, and personal writings, Wilson shows how Pietists on all sides of the conflict—Patriot, Loyalist, and neutral—understood the war through a shared theological vocabulary of providence, suffering, discipline, and faithful endurance.Wilson treats Pietism broadly, using the term to describe a transatlantic devotional culture rather than a narrowly defined movement. In his account, Lutherans, Reformed, Moravians, and related German-speaking Protestants participate in a common pietist world shaped by intense Scripture use, moral seriousness, and the conviction that God was dwelling within them by faith.Rather than resolving the moral tensions of war, God on Three Sides highlights how pietist faith absorbed and interpreted political crisis: some read the conflict as divine chastisement, others as a call to reform, and still others as a trial demanding patient submission. For Lutheran listeners, the book is especially illuminating in showing how traditional Lutheran language of vocation, suffering, and obedience functioned within this broader pietist framework—often without sharp confessional self-consciousness, yet still grounded in inherited theological instincts.God on Three Sides offers a comparative compilation of how early American German Protestants experienced revolution, revealing the temporal costs of war and the complexity of Christian conscience in a divided world.Many thanks to my wonderful supporters!Support the show Confessional Languages Scholarship The Wauwatosa Diary (book) Youtube ( even more behind-the-scenes videos available for certain patron tiers) Facebook Website Interview Request Form email: thelutheranhistorypodcast@gmail.com About the HostBenjamin Phelps is a 2014 graduate from Martin Luther College with a Bachelor of Arts with a German emphasis.

    The Real Reason AI Valuations Are So High w/ Daniel Nikic

    Play Episode Listen Later Mar 5, 2026 59:51


    In today's market, AI valuations are expanding faster than fundamentals can justify. Companies with minimal free cash flow are being priced as if dominance is already secured.  Capital continues to circulate between venture portfolios, strategic partners, and ecosystem incumbents, reinforcing growth narratives that assume liquidity remains abundant. But markets don't reward narratives forever. When growth slows or capital tightens, the question shifts from projected upside to structural durability. Does the business generate real cash? Does it control proprietary data that compounds value? Is it positioned to be acquired or forced to sell? This is where discipline separates operators from spectators. Daniel Nikic has spent years operating inside early-stage capital markets, studying transaction patterns, portfolio structures, and acquisition behavior. From that vantage point, valuation is less about headlines and more about capital flows, strategic adjacency, and who holds liquidity when cycles turn. In this episode, we look beneath the surface of today's AI enthusiasm to examine what actually drives valuation, how smart founders reverse-engineer an exit, and why companies entering a slowdown with balance sheet strength don't just survive, they consolidate.   About the Guest  Daniel Nikic is an investment research professional and entrepreneur dedicated to delivering tailored insights and strategic solutions. With over two decades of experience, Daniel has built a career dedicated to empowering investors and businesses with actionable insights.

Ben's book, Alone in Plain Sight: Searching for Connection When You're Seen But Not Known, explores what it's like to feel invisible, even while millions are watching. From reality TV to marriage, from church culture to platform pressure, Ben opens up about insecurity, performance, and the quiet fear that if people really knew us, they might not like us. We talk about: The difference between feeling unlovable vs. unlikable Why social media connection doesn't cure loneliness Performative Christianity and losing yourself in the process The courage it takes for men to admit loneliness How slowing down exposes what's actually going on inside Letting the right people speak into your life, and guarding your heart This isn't just a "Bachelor" conversation. It's about identity, community, vulnerability, and what it means to be fully known without performing.

    #311 If you've been drinking the water, eating the fibre, taking the  magnesium and prebiotics — and you're still constipated — this episode is for you. Chronic constipation is rarely just a lifestyle problem. In most cases, there is a deeper, physiological root cause that hasn't been properly investigated. In this solo episode, Lynda walks you through five of the most commonly missed drivers of chronic constipation, what the research says, and why getting the right investigation changes everything. You'll discover: - Why do methane-producing gut organisms (IMO) physically slow down your bowel movement — and why fibre and resistant starch can make it worse - Dyssynergic defecation — when your pelvic floor tightens instead of releasing - Secondary medical causes that are frequently overlooked, including thyroid dysfunction and medications - What advanced microbiome testing reveals that standard tests simply miss - How chronic stress, nervous system dysregulation, and trauma keep you stuck - Why chronic constipation has been linked to cognitive decline and can precede Parkinson's disease motor symptoms by 20 or more years If you've been at this for a long time without answers, this episode  was made for you.

    Sobertown Podcast host Michal interviews keynote speaker, author, and substance abuse counselor Martin Lockett, who served 17.5 years in prison after a New Year's Eve 2003 DUI crash in Portland that killed two women in long-term recovery and severely injured a third individual.  In this podcast, Martin describes early alcohol dependence, the crash, and the newspaper article about the victims that inspired him to honor their legacies through prevention and addiction work. In prison he pursued higher education, earning a bachelor's degree in sociology and a master's degree in psychology, completed substance abuse treatment, learned the difference between sobriety and recovery, and began sharing his story through DUI victim impact panels.  Upon release in 2021, he became a counselor and later a director focused on prevention and equity. Martin helped launch a “custody to counseling pipeline,” and now speaks nationally on DUI prevention, recovery, guilt vs. shame, and self-forgiveness. You can find more information on Martin Lockett's website, including links to his books Prison to Purpose Pipeline and My Prison Life: A Blogger's Insights from the Inside.  https://www.martinlockett.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/martinllockett?igsh=eWsyNGxqbHhsb3Nt   Martin Lockett is a highly sought-after keynote speaker, substance abuse counselor, author, and nationally recognized advocate for reducing DUI fatalities. He served 17½ years in prison following a DUI-related crash that claimed two lives and permanently injured another. At his sentencing, Lockett made a solemn vow to the victims' families and friends to devote the rest of his life to honoring their legacies by helping others confront substance use disorders and speaking candidly about the devastating consequences of impaired driving. During his incarceration, Lockett earned a Bachelor of Science in Sociology and a Master of Science in Psychology, obtained state certification as a substance abuse counselor, and served as a mentor and role model to fellow inmates. He is the author of two books, Prison to Purpose Pipeline and My Prison Life, and began sharing his story through DUI victim impact panels—work he initiated while still incarcerated. Since his release in 2021, Lockett continues this mission by providing counseling support for individuals facing mental health and substance use challenges and sharing his powerful message of accountability, redemption, and hope at DUI victim impact panels, alcohol highway safety classes, high schools, colleges, and conferences nationwide, using his lived experience to inspire change and save lives.     About Michal: Michal is an American podcaster and sober warrior who believes every recovery journey is as unique as the individual traveling it. With over a decade of sobriety garnered through various recovery systems, programs, and support networks, she's passionate about breaking down stereotypes and smashing through the shame that can keep those suffering with addiction in the dark.

    In this episode of That Tech Pod, we sit down with Dr. Jonathan Schaeffer, a longtime computer scientist who didn't arrive in AI chasing demos or hype, but by trying to solve a much harder problem: how to keep data safe.Jonathan walks us through his path from privacy and security research into modern AI, and why those early concerns feel even more urgent now. While everyone is fixated on hallucinations, he argues the bigger risks are quieter and more structural, from loss of user control to systems that appear trustworthy while subtly eroding human judgment. We dig into the growing concentration of AI power among a handful of companies and whether that outcome was inevitable or the result of choices we made along the way. Jonathan reflects on the human skills he worries we may stop exercising as AI gets better, and the low-key decisions happening right now that could shape the next decade far more than any flashy model release. Finally, he shares what he's building with Synsira: privacy-first, local AI tools designed to work with your own data without shipping it to the cloud, leaking sensitive information, or inventing answers. It's a conversation about control, responsibility, and what trustworthy AI actually looks like when you have to live with it.Dr. Jonathan Schaeffer is a computer scientist and AI innovator who works at the intersection of artificial intelligence, data privacy, and security. He is the founder of Synsira and the creator of KIND, (Knowledge In Depth AI), a privacy-first desktop AI that lets users search, analyze, and interact with their own knowledge bases, documents, notes, and proprietary data, without sending information to the cloud, risking data leaks, or encountering hallucinations. With a career spanning systems design and secure computing, Jonathan focuses on building AI tools that maintain true control over sensitive and regulated data, exploring what responsible, trustworthy AI looks like in practice and how organizations can innovate without surrendering autonomy. He earned his Bachelor of Science at the University of Toronto and a Master's and Ph.D. at the University of Waterloo, then spent more than 35 years at the University of Alberta as a Distinguished Professor of Computing Science, leading pioneering AI research before retiring in 2024 to focus on AI innovation with Synsira.

    Denis Stewart is widely recognised as the Godfather of Australian Herbalism—a pivotal figure in the modern development of herbal medicine in Australia. His influence spans more than five decades of clinical practice, education, and advocacy in natural therapies. Stewart’s journey in herbal medicine began in the early 1970s, a time when interest in alternative health approaches was growing. He is credited with spearheading a Renaissance in Australian herbal medicine by establishing formal training and professional standards for the discipline. At the National Herbalists’ Association of Australia, he developed professional examinations, curricula, and course studies that helped shape herbalist education nationally. He also established and taught the first three-year, full‑time program in herbal medicine at the NSW College of Naturopathic Sciences. In the late 1970s, Stewart founded the Southern Cross Herbal School, offering undergraduate and postgraduate herbal medicine programs and training many of Australia’s leading practitioners. Later, from 2002 to 2007, he served as a Conjoint Associate Professor at University of Newcastle, helping develop its Bachelor of Herbal Therapies degree. Stewart’s contributions have been widely recognised: he was inducted into the Australian Traditional Medicine SocietyHall of Fame and awarded life membership for his service to the industry. Beyond formal education and practice, he has also shared his expertise via a long‑running radio program, Health Naturally with Denis Stewart, where he discusses herbal approaches to health and well‑being. Through his teaching, clinical work, curriculum development, and advocacy, Denis Stewart has had a profound impact on the evolution of herbal medicine in Australia, earning him a reputation as one of the field’s most influential figures.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Nina Hartley® is an American sex educator, author, speaker, activist, advocate and performer whose career spans more than four decades. With a background as a registered nurse, she brings a rare combination of clinical grounding, lived experience, and plainspoken clarity to conversations about sexuality, consent, pleasure, and communication. Her work consistently centers education, agency, and harm reduction, emphasizing sexuality as an integral part of overall health and well-being. Hartley earned a Bachelor of Science in Nursing from San Francisco State University, graduating magna cum laude before transitioning full-time into media and education work. That medical training continues to inform her approach, particularly her focus on accurate information, bodily autonomy, and ethical responsibility. She has long argued that honest, shame-free sexual education is essential not only for personal fulfillment but for healthier relationships and communities. In addition to her extensive career in adult media, Hartley has devoted much of her professional life to sex education. She has lectured at universities, participated in academic panels, and appeared in public forums addressing topics such as consent, feminist theory, free expression, and the social impact of sexual stigma. Her educational projects emphasize practical communication skills, enthusiastic consent, emotional literacy, and respect for boundaries, identity and desire. Hartley is the co-author of Nina Hartley's Guide to Total Sex, an accessible, comprehensive resource that reflects her teaching philosophy: that sexual knowledge should be empowering, inclusive, and grounded in real-world experience. The book is a companion piece to her 40-volume video sex education series known collectively as the Nina Hartley® Guides. She has also appeared in mainstream film and television, most notably in Boogie Nights, and has been a frequent guest on talk shows and documentaries discussing sexuality and media ethics. An outspoken advocate for sex-positive feminism and free speech, Hartley has served on the boards of organizations supporting sexual education and performer rights. She is known for engaging thoughtfully with complex and often controversial issues, approaching them with humor, candor, emotional insight, emphasizing an insistence on nuance rather than moral panic. Today, Hartley continues to teach, write, and speak about intimacy, aging, long-term relationships, and sexual ethics. Her work remains guided by a belief that informed, consensual sexuality is not fringe or indulgent, but a fundamental aspect of human dignity and personal autonomy."
