March 3, 2026: The hype around AI and jobs is loud. The actual data tells a more nuanced story. This week, Stanford economist Nick Bloom released the most rigorous study yet on AI's impact on employment and productivity — surveying nearly 6,000 executives across four countries with the Federal Reserve and Bank of England. The findings are striking: 90% of firms report zero employment impact from AI so far, yet US executives are planning to cut over two million jobs in the next three years based on gains that haven't materialized yet. We break down what that gap means for workers, leaders, and organizations. Plus: CNN pushes back on the viral AI doom-loop narrative — and why "don't freak out yet" isn't the same as "you're fine." Why 43% of workers want to change careers but almost none will — and the psychological trap behind what researchers are calling "job hugging." And the central irony of the AI economy: the companies spending trillions to automate knowledge work can't build the infrastructure to run it because there aren't enough electricians — and why Gen Z is starting to pay attention. ---------- Start your day with the world's top leaders by joining thousands of others at Great Leadership on Substack.

As the freight market tightens and costs rise, supply chain leaders must plan ahead, strengthen carrier ties, and stay agile.In this episode of Supply Chain Now, Scott Luton and special guest host Karin Bursa sit down with Bobby Holland of U.S. Bank and Nick Palmucci of Ferguson Enterprises to discuss the latest U.S. Bank Freight Payment Index for Q4 2025. They unpack what “freight market tightening” looks like in practice, with capacity shrinking, shipper spend climbing, and regional performance moving in different directions, from strength in the Northeast to weakness in the Southwest.They also get into what's driving demand shifts and cost pressure, including changes in consumer behavior, softer manufacturing signals, and uncertainty that keeps teams on their toes. Along the way, they share practical moves leaders can make right now, such as building a three-year roadmap, reducing spreadsheet dependency, locking in bids earlier, and operating like a shipper of choice when capacity gets tight. The result is a grounded look at what the data shows, what shippers are experiencing, and how to turn both into better decisions.Jump into the conversation:(00:00) Intro(03:38) Warm-up questions for the panel(06:54) Tightening capacity and rising costs(11:46) Q4 national view: lower capacity, higher costs(15:23) West: softer volumes, higher spend(19:25) Southwest: brief rebound, costs climb(21:56) Midwest: modest gains, mixed demand(24:51) Northeast: strongest growth, higher rates(28:13) Southeast: volumes down, muted spend(30:32) Consumer confidence and freight demand(31:46) Leading through uncertainty: roadmap and tech(40:36) What's ahead: capacity and shipper-of-choice strategyAdditional Links & Resources:Download the latest edition of the U.S. Bank Freight Payment Index: https://www.usbank.com/corporate-and-commercial-banking/industry-expertise/transportation/freight-payment-insights.html?ecid=OTHE_80042Connect with Karin Bursa: https://www.linkedin.com/in/karinbursa Connect with Bobby Holland: https://www.linkedin.com/in/bobby-holland-4a9355/Learn more about U.S. Bank: https://www.usbank.com/index.htmlConnect with Nick Palmucci: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nick-palmucci/Learn more about Ferguson: https://www.ferguson.comLearn more about Ferguson Home: https://www.fergusonhome.comLearn more about Ferguson Corporate: https://corporate.ferguson.comLearn more about our hosts: https://supplychainnow.com/aboutLearn more about Supply Chain Now: https://supplychainnow.comWatch and listen to more Supply Chain Now episodes here: https://supplychainnow.com/program/supply-chain-nowSubscribe to Supply Chain Now on your favorite platform: https://supplychainnow.com/joinWork with us!

Hi Gorgeous! Welcome back to Queen Flow.Today's episode is one of the most important conversations I've ever recorded.I sit down with my former mentor of nearly 3 years — the infamous Queen of Shadow Work, Felicity Morgan — for a deeply honest conversation about what it actually takes to move from unbelievable hardship to building the business, finances, marriage, and relationships most women only dream of.This isn't a trauma story.It's a mastery story.Felicity doesn't just share what happened to her — cyclical familial and romantic abuse, kidnapping, single motherhood with zero financial support, and countless toxic relationships — she shares how she chose massive responsibility to recreate every aspect of her life.We dive into:Why most personal development keeps people looping in victim identityThe addiction to validation (especially in coaching spaces)How excitement gets mistaken for growthWhy integration feels boring — but builds masteryThe hidden benefits we gain from staying stuckHow shadow patterns sabotage money and successWhy healing cannot depend on someone else's apologyThe difference between validation and real loveIf you're done playing small, done with sneaky toxic patterns, and ready to master your life by mastering yourself — this episode is for you.Listen now.Limited Spaces Available to join Feminine Magic & Money as a private experience

Former U.S. Pardon Attorney Liz Oyer was fired by Pam Bondi and Todd Blanche after she refused to recommend giving a domestic abuser back his gun. That criminal was Trump’s “Ambassador to Hollywood” Mel Gibson. Oyer explains how presidential pardons and clemency is supposed to work. With Trump’s Dept. of Justice, it’s been supercharged. Pardons seem to be driven by personal favors, political alliances and outright cash payoffs. Watch Mission Implausible on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@MissionImplausiblePod

They don't know how to run a business. A buddy of mine who is a very successful entrepreneur gives this speech all the time when he does seminars, which is, you know, you're a car mechanic, you're the top car mechanic at the shop and you see the boss making all the money and you're like, well, screw him. I wanna open up my own car shop until you realize you have to understand HR, accounting, Promotion, sales, marketing, advertising. Like, that's what the boss did. Yeah, there's a couple things to it more than just turning it into all the risk. Yeah.

And today we're welcoming/preparing to learn from Jake Eicham of Creative Minds. So Jake, we're talking marketing today, right? Jake Isham [00:01:10]: Yes, sir. James Kademan [00:01:11]: I am super excited because I don't— I've been in this marketing kick and I was talking actually with a— I'm going to call it a friend of mine who's in the marketing world way deeper than me. And it was interesting, the conversation that we had. So I'm excited to talk marketing more with you. It's just top of mind. So, and all businesses need it. So let's get started. First up, what is Creative Minds? Jake Isham [00:01:35]: We're a creative agency based in Los Angeles. We've done over a billion views online, driving millions in revenue for our clients. And we focus on helping build personal brands and really helping that entrepreneur scale their attention so that they, you know, because at the end of the day, attention drives revenue. James Kademan [00:01:56]: Interesting. Now you touched on something there and I want to dig into this a little bit because another conversation I had was the, it's kind of like chicken and egg thing or nature nurture. It was personal brand versus company brand. Which one do you push? So you as a marketer, if we were to ask you that question. Jake Isham [00:02:14]: It depends a little bit on the industry and the entrepreneur who I'm talking to, but you could say what's gonna beat out in my opinion is personal brand. James Kademan [00:02:25]: All right. Jake Isham [00:02:26]: Because at the end of the day, most entrepreneurs don't stick with one business, just majority, you know? James Kademan [00:02:36]: Yeah, yeah, you're not wrong. Jake Isham [00:02:37]: They sell or they give up or they, or whatever, you know, life comes around. And personal brand, you know, I think one of the individuals who's done it the best regardless of politics is Elon Musk. You look at what he's been able to do as a marketer and as an entrepreneur, purely that, right? James Kademan [00:02:58]: Right. Jake Isham [00:02:58]: This isn't a politics show. James Kademan [00:03:00]: Right, right. Jake Isham [00:03:02]: Yeah, it reminds me of, uh, have such an ultimate personal brand to be able to do that. Another gentleman who came before him was Steve Jobs. He was the face of Apple. And to be honest, if we look at the era of Steve Jobs Apple versus Tim Cook Apple, it's not as good. James Kademan [00:03:23]: Not even close. Yeah. Jake Isham [00:03:24]: Not a force to be reckoned with, but because that was a personal brand also, even though it was a company brand. And, you know, and I'm gonna take, I'll go one step further on this, right? People will, you know, bring up the example of sports and Nike. All right, Phil Knight is not a personal brand. Yes, but what he did was really intelligent. He's not a top athlete, but he got the best athletes to be the personal brand of the brand Nike, right? He got MJ, he got Kobe, he got LeBron. Like, he got these top individuals to be the personal brand of Nike, right? James Kademan [00:04:02]: It makes sense. Makes sense. It reminds me of, uh, somebody was, uh, there's an article that I was reading, I'm sorry, that was talking about these tribes in way out in Africa, and they had heard of Michael Jackson. Wow. I didn't know anybody else famous, right, that we would relate to. I mean, we're talking the '80s here, but they knew Michael Jackson. Like, it had reached like Coca-Cola and Michael Jackson. It had reached that far. Jake Isham [00:04:28]: He, I mean, he is the ultimate persona of you know, the greatest personal brand to ever have done it. He was literally the biggest celebrity on the planet as your example right there. James Kademan [00:04:41]: Yeah, surreal. So, let's dig deeper into that. How do you market yourself as a personal brand knowing, and this is the caution that I have, or I should say the concern that I have, is you market yourself as your personal brand. Now, you always have to be on and you always have to be that voice, or you always have to be pumping out content that you can't necessarily farm out to anyone else because they're not you. So you have to give all the presentations and do all the things. So tell me about that. Jake Isham [00:05:14]: But that's— I, I have two things. The first overall is that's the, that's the business you're going getting into. If that, that is the roles and responsibilities of a CEO. That is like, all right, then don't be a CEO. Don't be an executive. Like, look, you don't have to do a personal brand. I'm gonna 100%, I know lots of millionaires and a few billionaires who you could not point out in a crowd, who you could never name by, like, you would never know their name, never know anything about them. And they are unbelievably successful. Jake Isham [00:05:49]: Okay. 100%. So I'm not saying, oh, you have to or you will never be successful, but if it's just a different path and it's a different— again, it depends on that niche you're in. If you want to be like hyper B2B, you can slightly stay, but you're still going to be known within your industry. Like your personal brand doesn't have to reach the millions of people, right? If you say you service the top 100 law firms in the US, you still have to be the personal brand that is known by those top 100 law firms in the US. Now, Joe in Iowa doesn't need to know you, but you, Better make sure every partner in all those top 100 law firms know you so you can service them. And that's where the personal brand is so important. Like, you know, I mean, as simple as this, you think about like, it's silly, I forgot this example until now. Jake Isham [00:07:04]: Some of the biggest brands that we know were all personal brands. Ford. It's a guy's last name. Walt Disney. That's his name. There was a dude named Walt, last name Disney. J.P. Morgan. Jake Isham [00:07:23]: These are, these are just people, and they literally built a company based on their name. So That's where it's like, again, personal brand is everything. And you don't have to name the company after your name, but there's an aspect of knowing who's running the company, who's the face of the company, who— where does the buck stop, who's leading it? And I think that's where it's so important. So that's kind of— I know I got off a little bit of a tangent on your question, but— James Kademan [00:07:57]: Oh, you're good, you're good. That's the game. Jake Isham [00:08:00]: It's a mindset shift that a lot of entrepreneurs get scared. Oh,

Behavioral scientist and bestselling author Jon Levy is back to unpack how we can leverage our own psychology to build wealth. He explains why publicly announcing your financial goals can actually sabotage them, how “if-then” plans outperform willpower, and why adopting the identity of “I'm an investor” can become a self-fulfilling prophecy. Then Nicole asks Jon what the science says about whether jerks make better CEOs, and he shares research-backed strategies for becoming a stronger leader. He also gets personal: how growing up as the child of immigrants affected his money mindset, the road to becoming debt-free in eight years, and the amount of money he needs in his bank account to feel safe. Nicole and Jon also discuss how financial frameworks like the sunk cost fallacy apply to relationships and whether your partner might be the best investment you'll ever make.

In this episode, Scott Becker reviews how Warren Buffett's Berkshire is trimming stakes in Apple and Bank of America, with American Express emerging as a potential top holding as the firm rebalances away from former growth giants.

In This Episode The current regulatory regime in the US promised a lighter touch and more de novo charters. Sure enough, there has been a flurry of activity with a wide range of applications being submitted from long time payment providers like Paypal, neobanks looking to break free from their BaaS sponsors, and even silicon valley insiders looking to build the bank of the future like Erebor. Reading the various applications and hearing the varied business plans raised a very fundamental question: What if bank charters are being issued to companies that don't actually want to be banks? We tend to treat a charter like a finish line — as if the moment you get one, you've crossed into some higher state of legitimacy. But a charter is a regulatory status. Being a bank is an economic role. And those two things may be drifting apart. In this episode of Breaking Banks, Jason Henrichs and Jeff Taft, Partner at Mayer Brown, dig into that tension. Jeff has advised on bank formations, regulatory strategy, and some of the most complex de novo and specialty charter conversations in the market. He has a front-row seat to how applicants think about charters — and how regulators evaluate readiness to operate as banks. This conversation was recorded live as part of FintechXchange put on by the Fintech Center at the University of Utah. This Hot Takes series is powered by U.S. Bank. Now let’s dig in to the question: are most charter applicants trying to become banks — or trying to become regulated?

If anyone can keep track of how many times Kerri says "yeah" or "man", we would love to know what the final tally is. Welcome back to another episode of the Hunt Lift Eat Podcast. This episode is going to be a mix of topics -- we realized too late that the podcast bank was empty and we needed to wing thing one. But that's pretty on par for us and it seems to keep working somehow.

Manchmal wünscht man sich die Zeiten ohne Uhr zurück, wo man anhand des Sonnenstandes ungefähr berechnen konnte, wieviel Zeit des Tages schon hinter einem lag. Und wenn die Sonne untergegangen war, dann war halt Abend. Heute gibt es sogar Atomuhren, die gar keine Spielräume mehr zulassen. Pünktlichkeit ist zu einer Tugend geworden und jemanden warten zu lassen, ist ja auch unverschämt. Man raubt dem anderen Zeit. So wird es empfunden. Manchmal hat dieser kleine Zeitraub aber auch Vorteile. So manche Entdeckung wäre nicht gemacht worden, wenn man nicht zu lange gewartet oder die Zeit vergessen hätte. Sollten wir vielleicht manchmal weniger akkurat sein, für mehr Lebensfreude? Wir wollen das vertiefen mit dem Vorstandsvorsitzenden der Knigge Gesellschaft, Clemens Graf von Hoyos, mit dem Zeitforscher Jonas Geissler, dem Sozialarbeiter Manfred Bolte, der Sterbebegleiterin Christiane zu Salm und mit Verena Kleinmann, Host des Podcasts “(K)ein Kinderwunsch”. Podcast-Tipp: hr2 - Dokumentation und Reportage Wie schön wäre es, wenn wir anstandslos das tun würden, was eigentlich gut für uns wäre, was wir immer schon in Angriff nehmen wollten oder sollten. Doch lieber schieben wir unsere Pläne auf die lange Bank. Disziplin genießt bei uns seit langem kein großes Ansehen. Zu stark haftet ihr das Stigma von Abrichtung und Drill an. Doch wie es schon bei Marc Aurel heißt: Der Mensch muss von innen mit Säulen und Bögen gestützt sein, sonst zerfällt der "Tempel" zu Staub. Das Feature wirft einen Blick auf die alte, aber nicht veraltete Tugend. https://www.ardaudiothek.de/episode/urn:ard:episode:b2790024bd05617a/

Fentanyl pipelines, organized recon tactics, and questions surrounding the Nancy Guthrie case raise bigger national security concerns. Is this just crime—or something far more coordinated?

If you search the Rothschild name online, you'll find a cartoon villain.A secret cabal.A shadow government.A family that supposedly controls the weather.That story is fiction.The real story is more unsettling — because it doesn't rely on magic.It relies on systems.In this episode, we trace how the Rothschild family built the architecture of modern finance:• A private intelligence network that moved information faster than kings• Cross-border gold logistics during the Napoleonic Wars• Financing the defeat of Napoleon• Inventing the sovereign bond market• Saving the Bank of England during the 1825 crisisThey didn't rule Europe by secret handshake.They industrialized government debt.And for a brief window in the 19th century, if a king wanted to fight a war — he needed their capital.This isn't a conspiracy story.It's a blueprint story.And the blueprint outlived the family.

Christian Carmona grew up in Medellín's infamous Barrio Antioquia—an area known for prostitution, gambling, and later, cocaine. In this episode, Christian tells the inside story of a Colombian cocaine dynasty that quietly expanded from Medellín to Miami… and even Portland, Oregon. Raised “Americanized” in the suburbs, Christian didn't learn the truth about his father's criminal enterprise until federal agents came crashing down in 1991—taking both of his parents at once. From cartel-era Miami strategies (stash houses, mules, low-profile living) to family-wide trafficking ties and the chaos of the early 90s, Christian lays out how the business really worked behind the scenes. The story gets even wilder when Christian later gets pulled back into the orbit of his father's old associates—working at a bank where traffickers allegedly used safety deposit boxes to stash cash and kilos. A setup, a sting, and years of court delays later, Christian describes spending nearly four years incarcerated while prosecutors tried to force him to cooperate. This is a raw conversation about family, loyalty, survival, and redemption—plus how Christian found faith and wrote his book Zeal while locked up.

What happens when a technology-minded New Yorker stumbles into Hollywood and ends up reshaping how the industry makes trailers, title sequences, and motion graphics for the next three decades? This week, Eric Ladd joins the show to talk about his winding path from floppy disk drives and Bank of America to running Novocom, building Pittard Sullivan into a global powerhouse, and founding Picture Mill, one of the most influential design and motion graphics companies in entertainment marketing history. Now he's doing it again with Ignite XR, creating AR and social content tools contracted by TikTok, Snapchat, and Instagram. Along the way, the conversation covers how Picture Mill got its name (in a single impulsive moment at a lunch meeting), the deal that fell apart and sent half of Pittard's leadership out the door to start their own companies, and how Eric pioneered digital before the industry even had a name for it. He also shares what it was like to shoot the Mandalay tiger in Hawaii, fly to Edwards Air Force Base with a first-time solo pilot to blow up a quarter-scale hotel, and pitch George Lucas on a Star Wars re-release trailer using a clip of Apocalypse Now on VHS. Key Takeaways Confidence Is a Skill Before leaving Pittard, Eric had already grown Novocom from two people to sixty. That track record gave him the credibility to walk into Aspect Ratio's Citrus lunch meeting with an $8.5M business plan he'd written in two hours — and walk out with a credit line and the name Picture Mill. The People You Work With Are the Real Portfolio When asked about favorite campaigns, Eric sidestepped the question entirely: "I have favorite people." The relationships formed in those early years, including editors, designers, producers, directors, are what he actually carries forward. Know When to Leave, and Who Should Replace You At Pittard, Eric not only knew when his time was up, he named Anne Epstein as the person who should take the job. Succession thinking and generosity with credit have been constants throughout his career. Bleeding Edge Requires a Tolerance for Uncertainty Whether it was scanning and comping an entire Spike Lee trailer in the early days of digital, pioneering AR filters on Snapchat before the platforms knew what to do with them, or landing a contract with ByteDance by simply delivering a working product without being asked, Eric's approach has always been to figure it out first and explain it later. AI Is a Tool, Not a Threat... If You Have Ideas The conversation about AI cuts to the heart of what this show is about. Eric's view: "It all comes down to ideas." AI can execute, but someone still has to direct it. The people who will struggle are those who were already functioning as tools themselves. Notable Quotes "I went over there at five o'clock and Ed and I were there till ten. We just clicked." "I said, 'You can't afford me.' He said, 'How much do you want?' Six months later my paycheck just went WHOOSH." "When we came back from lunch, we'd hired every one of those people in the waiting room." "It all comes down to ideas. AI can give you ideas, but it lacks what humans can do with them." "A lot of being successful has to do with wherewithal. If you can hang in there long enough, you can be successful doing anything." "When we're gone, those stories are gonna be gone with us." "Not anymore. They're on the record!"

What if the most important person in your dental office isn't the one holding the drill?The dental hygiene profession is undergoing a massive transformation that reaches far beyond simple cleanings and into the realm of life saving medical integration. This conversation features Lancette VanGuilder, President of the American Dental Hygienists Association, who breaks down why the future of oral health depends on giving hygienists more autonomy and better license portability across state lines.

Vor 40 Jahren (1986) trat Stephan Eicher zum ersten Mal im legendären Pariser Olympia auf. Nun ist er dort mit seinem neuen Album auf Tournee. Seit Jahrzehnten ist Eicher in Frankreich ein Star. Wie gelang ihm dies? Warum blieb er der Stadt, die sein Herz brach, über all die Jahre treu? Stephan Eicher kennt Paris wie keine andere Stadt. Er liebt sie auch. «Das würde ich nie auf Französisch sagen, sonst werden sie noch eingebildeter», spöttelt er. Seine Auftritte im 133jährigen Pariser Olympia, in welchem auch Edith Piaf oder die Beatles aufgetreten sind, vergleicht er mit kleinen Banküberfällen. Nach Paris kam er, weil er seiner ersten grossen Liebe aus Bern folgte, die er jedoch bald an einen Freund aus Paris verlor. Aus seinem Schmerz und mit ein paar Brocken Französisch textete er Lieder für das kleine Album «Souvenir». Aus einer zufälligen Begegnung mit dem Autor von «Betty Blue, 37.2 am Morgen», Philippe Djian, entwickelte sich eine jahrzehntelange Freundschaft und Zusammenarbeit. Ist Eicher in Frankreich ein anderer Star als in der Schweiz? Warum strotzt sein neues Album vor Naturbeobachtungen? Stephan Eicher ist nach dem Konzert im Olympia zu Gast im Tagesgespräch bei Karoline Arn.

Scot Crow and Benjam Sobczak of the cannabis practice at Dickinson Wright  the impact of federal Schedule III reclassification and the increasing, albeit complex, role of private equity (PE) in the cannabis sector. Experts agreed that moving to Schedule III, while providing significant tax relief through the repeal of Section 280E, would not immediately open the floodgates to traditional banking services or major PE funds due to continued federal illegality and existing 'sin clauses' in investment documents. The current influx of specialized lenders and PE is largely driven by necessity, as distressed operators default on unsustainable loans, forcing lenders to take over assets they cannot easily resell.

In Money and Promises: Seven Deals That Changed the World, the distinguished banker, executive, and historian Paolo Zannoni examines the complex relationship between states and banks that has changed the world. Drawing on in-depth archival research, he explores seven case studies: the republic of Pisa, seventeenth-century Venice, the early years of the Bank of England, imperial Spain, the Kingdom of Naples, the nascent United States during the American Revolution, and Bolshevik Russia in 1917 through 1923. Zannoni also tells the story of how the Continental Congress established the first public bank in North America, exploring the roles of Thomas Jefferson, Benjamin Franklin, and Alexander Hamilton. Spanning many countries, political systems, and historical eras, this book shows that at the heart of these institutions is an intricate exchange of debts and promises.
