Here's a true heavyweight of the 80s and 90s sport and trad world. John Dunne punched out top level sport routes at Malham and a series of trad routes that are still the country's finest ticks. He ruffled feathers along the way. Let's hear his crack.

Recently Alex Shandrovsky had me as a guest on his show, the Investment Climate Podcast to talk about The Better Meat Co.'s recent funding round. When it came out, more than one Business for Good listener heard it and told me they thought it would make a good episode to release to our audience too, so this episode is simply the conversation Alex and I had for his podcast. If you've been following the alternative protein sector (and the broader biotech sector), you've likely seen the wave of challenges that fermentation, cultivated, and plant-based startups have faced over the past few years. As recent AgFunder News reporting confirms, ag and food tech investment is at a decade-long low. One active food tech VC even declared that foodtech investing is “maybe as bad as it's ever been.” Some days, building a startup in our sector can feel like being a player in Squid Game—with about the same odds of survival. While layoffs, bankruptcies, shutdowns, and cash-free acquisitions have been rampant in our sector lately, BMC has never conducted layoffs. Instead we've always been very frugal, and we tightened our belt even further in the past year, all while continuing to make important progress toward our aspirations of slashing humanity's footprint on the planet. This has been true in the midst of the three-year litigation we endured, the collapse of our bank and subsequent (temporary) loss of all funds, the painfully wintry investment climate for alt-protein, and other seemingly innumerable challenges. Our ethic of frugality will certainly continue in this new era of scaleup for our company. This financing is hardly the end of our story. Receiving investor dollars isn't our goal; it's solely a means to the end of building a profitable business that will help put a dent in the number of animals raised for food. Raising a round is akin to having someone provide the clothes, tents, and food you'll need to climb Everest…but you still need to actually go climb the mountain—hardly a guaranteed outcome. I've often said these days that we've shifted from what felt like a Sispyphean feat of fundraising to now merely a Herculean feat of scaling. Nearly all startups fail. The vast majority never see their seventh birthday, which BMC recently celebrated. Our company is still far from successful, but we now have a real chance to birth into the world a novel crop that can help feed humanity without frying the planet. We will judiciously use these new funds to work hard to finally let the Rhiza River flow. Alex and I discuss the story of how this funding round came about, and where we may be going from here.

Send us a textIn this episode, recorded during an adult Sunday school talk at Foundation Reformed Church, Jesse shares the urgent need for the gospel in Italy, where only a small fraction of the population embraces a biblical understanding of faith. Highlighting the challenges and opportunities in this mission field, he discusses recent ministry updates, the vision for a new church plant, the call for more laborers, and the need for a mission headquarters. The talk concludes with an exhortation from 2 Timothy 2:1, offering seven keys to being strengthened by God's grace to fulfill our God-given purposes.Appreciate this content?

Software developers combine Artificial Intelligence with IT Operations and have produced a new acronym called AIOps. Today, we explored some of the best practices for making software development more productive with AIOps. Legacy systems are an excellent application for AIOps, but Kevin Walsh from the GAO notes that it may be more economical to maintain legacy systems in place. Christopher Clark from the U.S. Marine Corps suggests listening to users through starting AI Task Forces. They can help identify the use cases that would validate the expense of moving to AIOps. One obvious win might be minimal risk, high-impact activities. Clark mentions preventative maintenance as a potential target. ROI from reducing costs can be apparent. Furthermore, a help desk can pose a negligible risk and have a relatively high impact on servicing needs of Marines. One likely candidate for applied AIOps is managing the changes in a code set that takes place. BMC's Katie Tierney states that in a typical DevSecOps environment, there could be thousands of changes a day, which exceeds human capability. The overview is apparent: ensure appropriate oversight, governance, and transparency measures are in place when deploying agentic AI systems.

How Human-Centric AI Frees CSMs for Strategic Work at BMCLeading customer success at a global scale is never easy—especially after a company split. For Sofia Barbosa, this meant steering a leaner team while still supporting hundreds of BMC products worldwide. The challenge: deliver more impact with fewer hands. The solution: build Succedo, an AI platform that reimagined how her team worked. The results spoke for themselves—customer success stories accelerated from months to days, output tripled, escalations dropped, and CSMs finally had time to focus on the strategic work that drives growth.In this episode, Sofia shares the inside story of how she's embedding AI across customer success at BMC. From value summaries and training path recommendations to support prioritization and statements of work, Sofia is proving that AI isn't about replacing people—it's about elevating them. She explains how she manages change, structures her AI teams, and why she believes experimentation (and even failure) is the only way forward.What you'll learn:- How Succedo helped triple the output of customer success stories.- The role of AI in reducing escalations and improving customer sentiment.- How to build specialized AI teams inside a large enterprise.- Why “human in the loop” remains critical in AI adoption.- The mindset shift leaders need to drive AI transformation.Check out the Key Takeaways & Transcripts: https://www.gainsight.com/presents/series/unchurned/Where to Find Sofia: LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/sofiabarbosa/Where to Find Josh: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jschachter/In this episode, we cover:0:00 – Preview & Introduction1:40 – Meet Sofia Barbosa (CCO, BMC Software)3:15 – Sofia's promotion and the BMC split6:53 – Why & how Succedo was born11:30 – The impact of using Succedo12:55 – Using AI to create value summaries15:40 – Creating personalized training paths with AI18:35 – AI for support: prioritization and sentiment analysis21:18 – Automating statements of work with AI24:35 – Building “Succedo Forge” and “Succedo Care” teams27:10 – Managing change and team sentiment around AI28:45 – Advice for CCOs driving AI transformationReferenced:- Sofia's post: https://www.linkedin.com/posts/sofiabarbosa_customersuccess-ai-bmc-activity-7366224818586685441-q74P

Este podcast está patrocinado por nuestros amigos de la revista CEROaCIEN que dedica… ¡Mas de 100 páginas al Mini! Que nos han servido para desmontar muchos mitos… y es que CEROaCIEN se ha convertido, para mí, en la fuente más fidedigna. ¡Solo se vende online! No la busques en el quiosco porque no la vas a encontrar. Te recuerdo que si eres garajista tienes condiciones especiales y francamente, si no estás suscrito, no sé a qué esperas… Porque… ¿Crees que el Mini se diseñó en una servilleta? ¿Qué no hubo una versión 4x4 o un dos volúmenes? ¿Crees que fue un éxito instantáneo, que era un coche para chicas o que nació con vocación deportiva? Hoy vamos a destrozar estos y muchos más mitos sobre el Mini. Vas a conocer la verdadera historia del Mini porque… ¡Esto es Garaje Hermético! Mentira 1: "El diseño del Mini nació en una servilleta". Confieso que creía en esta leyenda: Que Sir Alec Issigonis tuvo un destello de genialidad y esbozó el Mini en una servilleta. Es una imagen poética, pero falsa. Mentira 2: "El Mini fue un éxito de ventas instantáneo". Siempre que se habla de este modelo se da por supuesto que el público se enamoró del Mini desde el primer día, pero la realidad es muy diferente, pues su despegue comercial fue muy lento. Mentira 3: "El Mini nació con espíritu deportivo". El nombre Mini Cooper es sinónimo de competición, pero el coche no nació con esa vocación. Es más, su creador, Alec Issigonis, despreciaba las carreras. Mentira 4: "Todos los Minis clásicos son prácticamente iguales". Su silueta apenas cambió en 40 años, pero el Mini vivió una evolución constante. Se vendió bajo distintas marcas como Austin, Morris, Riley, Wolseley; tuvo diferentes carrocerías como el familiar Traveller, la furgoneta Van, con maletero separado y el playero Moke; y una gran variedad de motores, desde 848 cm3 hasta 1275 cm3. Mentira 5: "El Mini es un coche muy inseguro por su tamaño". Juzgar al Mini con los estándares actuales es injusto. Comparado con sus contemporáneos de los años 60, no era inseguro. Su mayor baza era la seguridad activa: su agilidad, dirección directa y frenada le permitían evitar accidentes con facilidad. Mentira 6: "BMC perdía dinero con cada Mini que vendía". Una leyenda muy extendida basada en que el margen de beneficio en los modelos básicos era ridículamente bajo, casi inexistente, debido a un error de cálculo inicial en los costes de producción. Mentira 7: "El Mini fue un coche pensado para mujeres". Su asociación con iconos de la moda como Mary Quant, creadora de la minifalda, le dio una imagen femenina, pero el Mini fue concebido como un coche universal para toda la familia. Mentira 8: "Siempre se llamó Mini". Pues no. El coche no nació como una marca llamada "Mini". En 1959, para satisfacer a las distintas redes de concesionarios de BMC, se lanzó bajo dos nombres: Austin Seven y Morris Mini-Minor. Mentira 9: "El primer Mini matriculado fue el 621 AOK". La matrícula 621 AOK es icónica, pero no pertenece al primer Mini fabricado. Este coche fue, en realidad, el primer Mini presentado a la prensa y utilizado para las fotos oficiales del lanzamiento. Por su gran exposición mediática, se quedó en la memoria colectiva como el número uno.. Mentira 10: "Gustó a todo el mundo desde el primer momento". Lejos de ser un amor a primera vista universal, la recepción inicial del Mini fue muy polarizada. Muchos periodistas y compradores potenciales lo encontraron demasiado extraño, ruidoso y espartano. Mentira 11: "El Traveller tenía una carrocería de madera". Las versiones familiares, conocidas como Traveller o Countryman, son famosas por su entramado de madera trasero. Esto ha llevado a pensar que su carrocería era de madera, incluso lo he visto escrito por compañeros… pero no es cierto. Mentira 12: "No hubo un Mini de tres volúmenes". Bueno, esto en realidad es cierto, porque no hubo uno… hubo dos. BMC lanzó en 1961 el Riley Elf y Wolseley Hornet ambos con la base del Mini, pero con un prominente maletero y un frontal con la parrilla distintiva de cada marca, creando una elegante silueta de sedán en miniatura. Mentira 12+1: "Nunca hubo un Mini 4x4". Aunque nunca se vendió al público, la idea de un Mini con tracción total existió y se desarrolló en prototipos fascinantes. El más famoso fue el "Twini", un Moke experimental con ¡dos motores!, uno delante y otro detrás, creando un 4x4 de altísimas prestaciones…

Training auf instabilen Unterlagen erfreut sich in den letzten Jahren immer größerer Beliebtheit. Sei es auf Wackelkissen, zusammengerollten Matten, Bosubällen oder anderen kreativen Erfindungen. Häufig wird das Training auf instabilen Unterlagen mit dem des funktionellen Trainings gleichgesetzt. Je komplexer und anspruchsvoller die Bewegung, umso besser. Die Tiefenmuskulatur solle gestärkt werden. Eine bessere Muskelfaserrekrutierung durch die Instabilität sei möglich. Bessere Balance. Bessere Sensomotorik. Das alles klingt nach dem heiligen Gral der Trainingswissenschaft. Doch was ist dran? Was bringt Training auf instabilen Unterlagen? Wann macht es Sinn und wann nicht?

Hubo un tiempo en que los coches deportivos eran inalcanzables para una gran mayoría. No existían deportivos asequibles ni se habían inventado los GTi. Y surgieron verdaderos “magos” que consiguieron hacer deportivos muy serios, algunos verdaderas “bestias”, a partir de utilitarios muy modestos. Hoy os traemos dos que, de alguna manera, vivieron vidas paralelas. Los nombres, en realidad más bien los apellidos, de Abarth y de Cooper sobreviven a día de hoy para destacar a los modelos más deportivos y prestacionales de algunas marcas, especialmente Fiat o Lancia en el caso de Abarth y Mini en el caso de Cooper. Nos vamos a mediados del siglo XX, cuando el mundo a duras penas se recuperaba de una guerra devastadora. Carlo Abarth en Italia y John Cooper en Inglaterra, algún día hablaremos de Carroll Shelby en Estados Unidos, vieron que coches comunes, modestos, tenían un potencial deportivo si se usaba ingenio y tecnologías. Karl Abarth era austríaco, nació en 1908 en Viena, pero pronto se trasladó a Italia adquiriendo la nacionalidad italiana e italianizando su propio nombre, que pasó de Karl a Carlo. Fundó Abarth & C. S.p.A. el 31 de marzo de 1949 en Bolonia, Italia y nace el logotipo de Abarth, un escorpión, que simbolizaba un animal pequeño pero peligroso. Es en la década de 1950, cuando Abarth ganó fama internacional gracias a sus sistemas de escape de alto rendimiento y a las preparaciones de modelos Fiat. Vehículos modestos como el Fiat 500 o el Fiat 600 recibían el toque Abarth y se transformaban en coches sorprendentemente rápidos para su tamaño. Sin duda, el auto icónico para la empresa fue el Fiat 500 Abarth. Partiendo de la base del Fiat 500 de 1957 de 479 cm3 y 13 CV, lo llevó en el Abarth 695 SS hasta los 695 cm3 y más 30 CV. Hacia finales de los 60, el éxito de Abarth atrajo a y en 1971, Fiat adquirió Abarth, que la convierte en su división de competición y preparaciones oficiales. Con Fiat, Abarth brilló todavía más en rallyes y circuitos. Y nace el espectacular Fiat 131 Abarth Rally, desarrollado por Abarth a partir de una berlina familiar y convertido en un coche de rally muy competitivo, con motor 2.0 litros de doble árbol y más de 200 CV. Con el Fiat consiguió los campeonatos mundiales de rally en 1977, 1978 y 1980. Hoy en día Abarth forma parte de Stellantis, el gran grupo europeo automotriz que engloba a Fiat, Peugeot, Chrysler y 11 marcas más. Hablemos de Cooper. A finales de los años 40 en Inglaterra, en un modesto taller de Surbiton (Londres), John Cooper y su padre Charles fundaron la Cooper Car Company. Su historia es paralela a la de Abarth, pero a la vez, muy diferente. John Cooper intuyó que podía construirse un coche de competición sencillo y barato: El Cooper 500, de la categoría F3, con motor de motocicleta JAP de 500 cm3 montado detrás del piloto en un chasis pequeño. Debutó en 1947 y, sorprendentemente, aquel coche de construcción casera se destacó por su equilibrio y agilidad. En los años 50, los Cooper siguieron escalando categorías. Y pilotos jóvenes y prometedores, como Stirling Moss o Jack Brabham, ganaron carreras con pequeños Cooper de motor central- trasero. Y por fin, en 1959 y 1960, el equipo Cooper-Climax sorprendió al mundo al conquistar el Campeonato Mundial de Fórmula 1 en dos temporadas consecutivas, siempre con el genial Jack Brabham al volante. Al comenzar la década de los 60 entra en escena El Mini, diseñado por Alec Issigonis para BMC en 1959, como la quintaesencia del utilitario británico: barato, muy pequeño, pero sorprendentemente espacioso, con tracción delantera y motor transversal. Y John Cooper vio en el Mini una base perfecta para un coche de rally por sus excelentes cualidades de agilidad y estabilidad. Convenció a BMC para producir una versión potenciada y así nace en 1961 nació el Austin Mini Cooper. John Cooper vendió su equipo de Fórmula 1 en 1965 y la Cooper Car Company dejó de fabricar monoplazas a finales de los 60. En cuanto al Mini Cooper de calle, BMC continuó produciéndolo hasta 1971. Y tras esa fecha, el nombre Cooper desapareció temporalmente de los Mini. En 1994 BMW adquirió la marca Mini junto a Rover, y decidió reinventarla. Aunque el Mini clásico cesó producción en 2000, BMW revitalizó la marca lanzando el Nuevo MINI en 2001. Hoy en día Cooper no es una compañía independiente, sino una legendaria denominación de modelo dentro de la marca MINI, propiedad de BMW. Todos los MINI modernos de aires deportivos llevan ese apellido: desde el Cooper de base hasta el potente John Cooper Works, que ha llegado a los 230 CV.
Send us a textIn Episode 336 of Missions Incorporated, host Jesse Schreck tackles a vital question for missionaries in Italy: How should we engage Italians in spiritual discussions, considering their Catholic background? Jesse explores the nuances of Italy's predominantly Roman Catholic culture, where 90% identify as Catholic, yet only 5% actively practice. He emphasizes finding common ground, clarifying the true gospel, and addressing misconceptions like baptismal regeneration. Key strategies include encouraging Italians to read the Bible, discussing the necessity of being born again, and using presuppositional apologetics to challenge secular worldviews. Jesse also shares practical tips for effective outreach, such as forming missionary bands, distributing gospel literature, and hosting community events.

One in four Americans is enrolled in Medicaid, yet the system designed to support them is constantly at risk—underfunded, politically vulnerable, and often overlooked.Dr. Alastair Bell, President and CEO of Boston Medical Center Health System, shares how his organization is reimagining what it means to care for underserved populations, while managing nearly 40% of Massachusetts' Medicaid enrollees. In this conversation, we explore the financial realities of running an “essential” hospital system, the opportunities and pitfalls of Medicaid ACOs, and why AI might deepen inequity if essential providers are left behind.We cover:
Lapsuuden haitalliset kokemukset, kuten väkivalta, laiminlyönti tai perheen vakavat ristiriidat, voivat horjuttaa lapsen turvallisuuden tunnetta ja heikentää stressinsäätelykykyä.

Send us a textIn this powerful episode, we feature a sermon Jesse preached from Acts 17, where the Apostle Paul engages the sophisticated, idol-worshipping Athenians with the transformative message of the Gospel. Titled "Troubled in Spirit: Moved by the Gospel," the sermon explores four key responses to a lost world: being troubled by lostness, being moved to act, practicing faithful contextualization, and trusting God for the results. Drawing from Paul's bold yet winsome approach, the message challenges listeners to care deeply about the spiritually lost, engage them with wisdom, and share the hope of Christ in today's diverse contexts. Perfect for anyone seeking to live out the Great Commission with purpose and compassion.Appreciate this content?

Franco from Beachside Motorcycle Company (BMC) is back in the studio for Episode 158 of the Ride Boundless Podcast. We dive deep into the evolution of BMC, how he and Adam built a loyal community, the rides that shaped them, and the personal growth that comes from putting in the work—both on and off the road. Whether you ride or just respect the hustle, this episode is for anyone who understands the power of brotherhood and business.
Shimano's *mostly* new GRX Di2 12-speed group is the Japanese giant's first single-ring drivetrain for gravel, and it borrows tech from the mountain bike world to make it happen. Senior tech editor Alvin Holbrook has unboxed, installed, and ridden GRX Di2, and this week's episode sees the crew dive into his early impressions on shift speed, gear range, and how it compares to SRAM's wireless offerings. BMC had also just released a new, lighter and even more climbing-focused Teammachine SLR ahead of the Tour de France, while Orbea launched the revamped Terra Race gravel bike. We've ridden both bikes and Josh, Alvin, and Levy break down how they perform and who they best suit.

We're not sure we've ever experienced a busier month in the world of cycling tech. All the major drivetrain manufacturers have released new things. We've had two custom bike shows and now it's the world's largest cycling tradeshow - Eurobike. And the tech conversations in the racing world have been a flurry of activity, too.In this episode, you'll hear the voices of the entire Escape tech editorial staff. Ronan McLaughlin, Dave Rome, and Alex Hunt share their thoughts on new Shimano GRX, Classified's update, BMC's new SLR01, and plenty more. Then, Josh Weinberg and Suvi Loponen tease what they're seeing on the ground at Eurobike.As usual, members of Escape Collective also get our Ask a Wrench segment, which this week sees Dave Rome and pro race mechanic Brad Copeland answer a handful of questions, including: when to rewax a waxed chain; repairing a crashed aluminium rim brake bike and perhaps what to repalce it with; and our thoughts on mini hooked road rims.

The headlines of the day by The Indian ExpressThis is the Catch up on 3 Things by the Indian Express and I am Ichha SharmaToday is the 27th of May and here are today's headlinesFor the first time, Operation Sindoor — the military strike launched by India earlier this month against terror targets in Pakistan — employed the concept of “red teaming” as part of its operational planning, The Indian Express has learnt. Red teaming involves embedding a small group of experts familiar with the adversary's mindset, tactics and response patterns into the planning process. Their role is to critically challenge the plan, simulate enemy reactions, and help test the robustness of the intended military strategy.

This is the Catch Up on 3 Things by The Indian Express and I am Ichha SHarmaIt is the 23rd of April and here are today's headlines.Expressing anguish over the Pahalgam terror attack that killed at least 26 people, Union Minister Amit Shah on X said, quote “Bharat will not bend to terror. The culprits of this dastardly terror attack will not be spared. With a heavy heart, pay last respects to the deceased.” unquote. Shah also met the survivors and assured them that the perpetrators of the dastardly act would be brought to justice. Meanwhile, the Jammu and Kashmir government announced Rs 10 lakh ex gratia for each deceased's family; Rs 2 lakh for the seriously injured and Rs 1 lakh for injured victims. Prime Minister Narendra Modi is expected to hold a key meeting with the Cabinet Committee on Security in the first half of the day, wherein India will formulate its response and defence strategy.Meanwhile, Pakistan's Defence Minister Khwaja Asif claimed today that they have nothing to do with the incident in which at least 25 tourists were killed and several others were injured. Indian officials, however, are not convinced by Pakistan's denial since the initial probe has suggested the presence of foreigners as part of the group of militants who opened fire at the civilians. At least 25 tourists and a Valley resident were shot dead Tuesday at a meadow near Pahalgam in Jammu and Kashmir in the deadliest terror attack on civilians in the country since the Mumbai 26/11 shootings. Asif told a Pakistan TV channel about the Pahalgam attack. “We have absolutely nothing to do with it. We reject terrorism in all its forms and everywhere.” The Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation last week demolished most of the Digambar Jain temple in Vile Parle in the city's western suburbs, triggering outrage and protests among members of the community, as well as politicians across parties. Under pressure, the civic administration transferred the assistant municipal commissioner in charge of the BMC's K/East ward office, which had carried out the demolition. Civic and court records accessed and evaluated by The Indian Express show that the first notice for demolishing the allegedly illegal structure was issued to the temple trust back in 2005. Since then, the BMC made nine attempts to raze the alleged illegal structure – and finally carried out the action on April 16.Amid its ongoing crusade against drugs, Punjab has become the first state in the country to ban energy drinks in and around schools to keep the children away from caffeine addiction. A notification to this effect was issued by the government on Tuesday, banning the sale of energy drinks in school canteens and outside school premises. The notification, issued by Dilraj Singh Sandhawalia, Commissioner of Food and Drug Administration (FDA), Punjab, states that it is “just and necessary” to prohibit the consumption of caffeinated energy drinks by children. The notification says that energy drinks are heavily marketed to children and young adults and others and manufacturers compare the effects of the drinks to the use of drugs like cocaine.A wildfire in New Jersey has forced residents to evacuate the area and shut down a stretch of a major highway on Tuesday as the wildfire grew to more than 3,200 acres, officials said. One of the busiest highways in New Jersey, the Garden State Parkway, saw closures due to the spread of wildfire and the stretch between Barnegat and Lacey townships was closed and the traffic was diverted, Associated Press reported. According to New Jersey Forest Fire Service, over 3,000 residents have been evacuated from the area of the Jones Road Fire in Ocean County and about 1,320 structures remain threatened. The fire service added that 5% of the wildfire has been contained till now.This was the Catch Up on 3 Things by The dian Express
