It's another Scottish Women's Football roundup and the regular trio of John B, Vinny and Dave give their views on everything that's happened in the Women's game over the last few weeks. Glasgow City have taken a six-point lead at the top thanks largely to victory away to Celtic, and this form lead to Leanne Ross moving from interim to permanent Head Coach. Is it one hand on a 16th SWPL title for them or have Celtic and Rangers got enough in them to overhaul them? Hearts had long secured a top six finish and have an eight point lead over their city rivals Hibs, who also secured a top six spot. They were joined by Partick Thistle, whose victory at Dundee United edged them into the final top six position ahead of Motherwell and Spartans. For a club who were promoted to the top flight at the 11th hour due to the sad demise of Forfar Farmington, it's an incredible achievement for Brian Graham's girls to get to this position in only their second season in the top flight. Vinny caught up with Thistle's longest serving player Taylor McGlashan who expressed what this meant to the club. The conversation then moves onto the bottom half of the table and the battle to avoid the relegation playoff match with the SWPL2 runners-up. Which one of Dundee United, Aberdeen and Hamilton, currently seperated by four points, will face the dreaded playoff? And with the gap between second and sixth in the second tier only seven points with nine games to go, it's still all to play for between five sides vying for a second chance at promotion. League leaders Montrose are motoring along nicely with a nine point lead at the top. This weekend, the SWPL1 season takes a break as the Scottish Cup Quarter Finals commence. Glasgow Women host Motherwell, Hearts entertain holders Celtic, Rangers are at home to Hibs in a repeat of the Sky Sports Cup Final, whilst the only non-top flight side left in the competition Kilmarnock welcome Glasgow City to Rugby Park. We end with our top three players of the SWPL1 season so far, and we have a variety of options that all have a good case to be in the running for player of the year.

Episode Highlights [04:20] Entering The Peptide Space Brian is a peptide specialist at Boulder Longevity Institute. When he first entered the peptide space, he worked more on performance optimization. He underwent educational training at the American Academy for Anti-Aging and Regenerative Medicine and earned a formal certification. He met Dr. Yurth while she was working at an orthopedic practice. They focused on bringing medical innovation to clinical relevance through collaboration. [06:48] What Are Peptides? Peptides have been around for some time, even in traditional medicine. They are naturally-occurring products that help regulate or stimulate a given process. For example, insulin is a peptide that regulates blood glucose to prevent neuropathic pain and other complications. Many things can be targeted on a cellular level with a given peptide. [09:07] Proteins vs. Peptides A protein that's a large peptide has more binding sites or activity. Smaller sequences of amino acids become more specific for a given cellular target. When chopped up, large proteins are basically made up of peptides. Many environmental factors inhibit your body's ability to make a given peptide, such as prioritization and accumulation of stressors. The aging process is associated with a decreased ability to make certain peptides. [12:05] BPC-157 BPC-157 is a gastric-derived peptide that naturally occurs in the digestive system and helps support the cells and makeup of the digestive system. It increases blood flow, thus helping modulate healing and recovery processes, especially in the musculoskeletal system. It also helps with neuron regeneration and improves the integrity of the blood-brain barrier. It's an F-actin sequestering peptide that dampens the effects of scarring. [17:00] What's Happening in the Peptide Space The peptide space is incredibly dynamic with lots of innovative research and people working hard to get it to clinical relevance. While much of it is on the bench, there are many strides in the peptide space. There are many factors affecting the accessibility of peptides, such as market exclusivity. [19:42] Increasing Accessibility Brian has been advocating and informing his patients of what's available to them and gives them access if possible. Peptides that are in clinical development and have gone through safety trials require an API. Unfortunately, there are still some inconsistencies in products with company pharmacies that they partner with. It's important to assess what's going to be effective for you. [23:24] SS-31 SS-31 is a mitochondrial peptide that has market exclusivity. It targets the inner mitochondrial membrane and buffers lipid peroxidation, improving the overall system. Brian and his team are working on enhancing its effects by adding other synergistic materials to it. [27:33] GHK-Cu GHK-Cu is widely known in the aesthetic space for collagen deposition and reduction of fine lines and wrinkles. Peptides should be used with caution because taking too much might compromise your health. It's also being used for postoperative recovery and it could potentially help reorient genetic issues and damage. [31:15] Ta1 Thymosin alpha 1 modulates the immune system. It protects immunocompromised people who are more vulnerable to viral bacteria. It's used for vaccines against viral hepatitis, certain types of cancer, and autoimmune diseases. Essentially, it helps with immunosurveillance by identifying foreign invaders, such as viruses and bacteria, and removing them. Though it has an incredible safety record, it's under scrutiny and there is limited access to it. [31:15] Semaglutide and GLP-RA Semaglutide and GLP-RA are synthetic peptides that regulate metabolism, increasing energy utilization and decreasing fat storage. It's commonly used for glucose control. It also regulates metabolic processes in the brain, potentially reversing cognitive issues. However, it might also lead to nausea, vomiting, distension, and other issues because it slows down stomach emptying. [43:42] MOD GRF 1-29 Overstimulation of CJC-1295, which upregulates growth hormones, can lead to a host of issues, such as fluid retention and neuropathic pain. MOD GRF 1-29 promotes more robust growth hormone production. Using growth hormone-stimulating hormones might cause dependence because it will shut down your ability to produce growth hormones. Abusing growth hormones can shut down your body's abilities. Growth hormones are released robustly at night and put you in a position to recover. [49:23] Other Peptides Brian is only familiar with Epithalamin with regards to pineal gland-derived peptides. Cerebral lysine supports the nervous system and can potentially treat Alzheimer's disease, brain injury, stroke, etc. MOTS-c is a mitochondrial-derived peptide that's associated with longevity. Humanin is used with MOTS-c, due to its synergistic effects, to encourage greater levels of mitochondria and metabolic flexibility. Metabolic flexibility translates to overall system integrity, resiliency, and performance. [57:24] Supersapiens Supersapiens sensors track glucose, ketones, and lactate in real-time. It helps enhance your performance and guides you in knowing what you need. It's best to seek guidance when you start getting into the peptide space so you'll be able to do things effectively and safely. 7 Powerful Quotes “... essentially, what it does is it helps to regulate a given process. And that's what peptides do, they are essentially a key to a door or an opportunity to either lock a door of a given process or open it up…” “[Peptides] could be analogous to a dimmer switch on the wall: you're turning up the light or turning down the light, but that's going to correspond with the given physiologic mechanism.” “Just because this stuff looks good on paper doesn't necessarily mean it's going to be good for everyone. It's really important to distil down what is going to be effective for you so you're not wasting your time and your money doing a treatment that you don't necessarily need.” “If you're in a chronic deteriorative state where your body's sort of ill-equipped to address that need, then you're going to chronically upregulate inflammation and essentially chronically deteriorate, unfortunately.” “More is not always better.” “Everything happens in a rhythm. Everything has its own clock.” “It's important [...] to have guidance, whether that's with me or someone else that is skilled and understands this constantly evolving field to really do things effectively.” Resources Gain exclusive access and bonuses to Pushing the Limits Podcast by becoming a patron!  Peptide Therapy and Caring for Our Cells with Dr William Seeds Supersapiens Biosensors      Connect with Brian: LinkedIn  About Brian Brian Graham is the Program Director at Boulder Longevity Institute.

Today we are joined by Greg Larson, author of Clubbie: A Minor League Baseball Memoir (University of Nebraska, 2021). In Clubbie, Larson shares his unique perspective from his two-year stint as clubhouse attendant for the Aberdeen IronBirds, a Class A short-season affiliate of the Baltimore Orioles. Larson's starry-eyed perceptions about the game were quickly erased by the reality of a job that was time-consuming and thankless. Larson brings the reader into the minor-league clubhouse, showing how young baseball professionals are literally playing for their jobs on a day-to-day basis. As the clubhouse attendant, Larson was charged with doing laundry, making sure the players had food after the game, and keeping players supplied with equipment. He writes about the scams run by food concession officials, and also describes some of the ingenious ways he added to his own bank account. Players had to pay clubhouse dues on a limited salary, and while Larson made more than the players, broken bats, deals with beer distributors and other team staff members helped him survive. Larson spent a year living out of a converted equipment closet at Ripken Stadium to save on living expenses, and his observations are memorable. Larson's vivid portraits of Alan Mills, Gary Allenson, Matt Merullo and Brian Graham — and himself — create a fascinating look at baseball from the bottom, looking up. Bob D'Angelo earned his master's degree in history from Southern New Hampshire University in May 2018. He earned his bachelor's degree in journalism from the University of Florida and spent more than three decades as a sportswriter and sports copy editor, including 28 years on the sports copy desk at The Tampa (Fla.) Tribune. He is currently a digital news producer for Cox Media Group. Bob can be reached at bdangelo57@gmail.com. For more information, visit Bob D'Angelo's Books and Blogs.

Contributor: Dr Peter Leary Talk Title: Life on the line: Partition at the Border Talk Synopsis: This talk explores how Partition affected the everyday life of border communities. It describes the ‘piecemeal and… protracted' process by which the new boundary was established and how ‘it ruptured old connections… but still needed to be crossed.' It looks at the extent of smuggling and the development of a ‘frontier bureaucracy' and also how the Irish border continued ‘to be stalked by the very violence of which it was itself a product.' It suggests that ‘the pain and irritation and… fury of partition seemed to grow a little dimmer' by the end of the twentieth century and that by ‘the start of this millennium the border was more permeable than at any point since 1922.' And it concludes with an assessment of Brexit's impact on the Irish border, noting that whilst it remains one of ‘the many divisive and contested legacies' of Partition, it ‘continues to be characterised by interconnection and exchange.' Short Biography: Peter Leary is a Vice Chancellor's Fellow in History at Oxford Brookes University.

Przestrzeń publiczna podlega stałym zmianom. Pojawiają się nowe obiekty, stare są odnawiane, przebudowywane lub popadają w stopniową degradację. Pewne otacza się opieką, inne z premedytacją niszczy. Zdarza się, że dopiero po wielu latach niektóre z nich się odkrywa, często nadając im nowe znaczenie i wiążąc z nimi nowe opowieści. Odwieczność, niezmienność są tylko naszą projekcją. Tym razem zastanawialiśmy się nad rolą i znaczeniem monolitycznych modeli historii, które choć są popularne, niosą z sobą ogromne ograniczenia, wręcz wpływają na znaczne zubożenie dyskursu – i symboliki przestrzeni publicznej.

Looking for exciting new beer to sample this weekend? Make sure you hit up Black Acre on Saturday (5/4/19) and Four Day Ray Sunday (5/5/19) to snag one of the most unique and highly rated gose beers our group has ever sampled, Pina Fantasma.  If you're not really sure what a gose is, give this episode a listen. During our on-site recording at Four Day Ray Brewing this time around, we were joined by Hutch of The Pint Cycle and Brian Graham. We were able to have some truly insightful and down to Earth discussion about not only beer styles, but the state of craft beer. Be warned - Pete got too lazy to edit this one. Some adult language and humor has made it in to this weeks episode.

Jordan, Pauly G and Tex-Mex return to Four Day Ray Brewing in Fishers and bring on a favorite, Brian Graham.  We revisit some topics from our day at Rock the Junction, their summer Break Series and FDR’s charity work like Tapped for a cause Tuesdays.    We sample some the current stock of released beers and even get a crack at some of the upcoming releases not yet available.  Jordan pleads his case for the creation of the MILF Stout and we get into some music and movie talk.  Warning, there might be some Star Wars spoilers in here. 

Months, even years before the first tee shot at a PDGA Major or NT flies into the air, hundreds of hours of groundwork, planning, and logistics go into making that event possible. One of the people who is most responsible for that work that generally goes unseen is our guest for Episode 106, Shawn Sinclair. Shawn has worked for the PDGA for many years as a Chief Marshall, member of the Board of Directors, and also as course consultant. That part of his role is what brings him to Charlotte this week, as he is scouting out locations for the 2018 Am Worlds which will be held here in the Queen City.  In Episode 106, we talk about Shawn's background playing disc golf in Southern California, how he made the decision to go pro and quit a job in teaching, and how he got involved with the PDGA on a working basis. He also talks about being on the committee that was tasked with finding a replacement for outgoing director Brian Graham.

The boys join owner Brian Graham at Four Day Ray Brewing in Fishers. We have a discussion around many different brews and brewing styles. Did you know in 2008 Michelob Ultra tried to do some craft flavors? Pat is obsessed with his new found love of these beers. We discuss spritzers and margaritas, and Brian's Cans. We dive into what FDR has coming out this winter and much more. This is a crazy fun rollercoaster of an episode. We most importantly get to sample some of FDR’s finest brews including: Blood Orange Blonde, Purple Smash, Heat is on, and Oktoberfest.

Wunnenberg's, birthday on this jubilant evening at FDR.  The conversation goes in many directions between beers as they discuss bas/offensive possible new beer names, Smokey and the Bandit, and Jordan's love for FDR's new Yoga Pants night.  The show rounds out with updates from Jeremy Brown and where he can be found, and what is fresh on Four Day Ray's taps and upcoming summer fun.  (And remember the FDR Beer Garden is now open!)  Will be able to catch FDR along with the Pigs at Indy In-Tune's Spring Radiothon going down all day next Saturday (June 3rd) at our home, Alley's Alehouse in Fishers, Indiana.  Come on out for a day of brews and live grooves for a great local charity.  https://www.facebook.com/events/224979387969807/ Cheers! http://www.fourdayray.com/  

What a treat is was to be invited back once again to cover Indiana's Next Hop Model hosted by Indiana On Tap and Nuvo.  Another solid evening of beautiful brews and brewery models. but Dan Gohr of Redemption Alewerks once again stole the show and kept hold of his crown.  And hopefully all who made it were able to stop by the Redemption table and try some of our Blind Pig/Redemption collaboration brew, Sooey Saison.  Tune in to this exiting hour of the Blind Pigs as we took time between beers to talk to some of the folks including:  Eric Fear and Mackenzie Schenk of Round Town Brewery(look for the upcoming show recently recorded at Round Town); the man, Sean Hopenstein Manahan of the Kopacetic Beer Factory; Wooden Bear Brewing Co.; WZPL's Nikki Reed, Colin McCloy of Taxman; Old man Jerry of The Bier Brewery; and Mr. Mathew Muncy from the Indiana On Tap Podcast who were also our recording neighbors for the evening.  Lots of Shout outs including:  Josh Springer(or as Jordan refers to as, Chris...we still don't know why, but thank you, Mathew for calibrating him) of Bottoms Up Beer; Quaff On Brewing; Chilly Water Brewing Co.; Great Fermentations; Brian Graham of Four Day Ray Brewing; The Indiana Whiskey Co.; Metazoa Brewing Company; Evil Czech Brewing and Public House, Crooked Ewe Brewery & Ale House; Fiddler's Hearth; and Bare Hands Brewing(soon to be open in South Bend as well as Granger) Cheers! http://www.indianaontap.com/ http://www.nuvo.net/      

Back at one of our favorite spots, the Pigs cut loose with Brian Graham at Four Day Ray. This is one of those off the wall episodes where the conversation goes off the track pretty much when we leave the station. But never a dull moment when fueled with FDR brews. What's coming up at Four Day? Jump on board and take the trip to find out. Cheers!   http://www.fourdayray.com

Today we’re expanding beyond our usual Barefoot Innovation focus on consumer financial innovation, to explore the parallel issues arising for small businesses. We’ve touched on this before, but are so fortunate, today, to have a guest who deeply understands the whole range of these issues. She is Karen Mills, former head of the Small Business Administration and now senior fellow at the Harvard Business School, where she has just released a comprehensive paper on fintech and small business. We recorded today’s show in her office on the business school campus, which is just across the Charles River from my fellowship’s home base in the Harvard Kennedy School. She and I first met in Washington a few years back, when she issued a research paper on the state of small business lending. That was in conjunction with the group that issued the Small Business Borrowers’ Bill of Rights (which we covered in our episode with Brian Graham of BancAlliance. In 2016, much to my delight, Karen and her co-author Brayden McCarthy put out an update on her paper, and this time it’s mostly about fintech. Technology is changing small business lending in the same ways it’s transforming consumer finance, but with different twists. On the positive side, innovators are using technology to do better for SME’s -- small and medium-sized enterprises -- by adopting low-cost online platforms, becoming much smarter about getting and using data, speeding up service, and creating a vastly better user experience than was possible in the past. The data issue is crucial. Thanks to new technology (including Square), small businesses increasingly can give lenders solid, up to date information on their financial positions and cash flows. Innovative lenders can analyze this, determine with precision what the borrower can afford, and often can create a flexible repayment schedule that works with the rhythm of the business, including seasonal ones. These innovators are filling an enormous gap -- which Karen clearly demonstrates -- because banks just cannot profitably make the smaller loans that so many businesses need. There are  downsides, though. One is that whereas local banks interact with their business customers face to face,  these new relationships are online. For lenders, this creates higher risk of fraud. And for borrowers, there is rising danger that these entrepreneurs will be harmed by confusing terms and, sometimes, by downright predatory practices online. And here’s a little-known fact:  small business borrowers have almost no regulatory protections, at least at the federal level. There is no federal regulator for small business lending, as there is for consumers, and even if there were, there are very few regulations that apply. Generally speaking, there are no requirements for standard disclosures to small business borrowers, and no rules against unfair and deceptive practices, beyond those that cover commerce in general. This is significant, because today’s small businesses are more similar to consumers than ever before. The “1099” or “gig” economy has led to more and more people starting small businesses as their main work, or to supplement tight household budgets, or to tide them over after losing a job. It’s a mistake to assume that, simply because they’re business people, they are therefore financially sophisticated. Listeners to Barefoot Innovation have probably figured out by now that I’m not a fan of the current regulatory apparatus for protecting financial consumers (even though I myself have been involved in developing some of it). Broadly speaking, disclosures are failing, and regulations are choking desirable innovation. The last thing I think we should do is to transplant our whole system of consumer protection laws into the fresh, green field of small business lending, and have it put down roots there -- like crabgrass. I think we should be deeply rethinking our consumer laws. In the process, though, we should also be thinking about whether and how to create protections and tools for small businesses to use, too. Karen does recommend extending some consumer-type protections to these firms, including APR’s (we had a good exchange on the pros and cons of that). She also has tremendous insights into the structure and nature of the market, and on what to do about what she calls the “spaghetti soup” of regulatory agencies and rules, which now make it so hard to move toward a smarter system. She focuses, too, on the critical need for clearer, updated regulatory guidance for banks that want to work with fintechs on small business lending. A wide spectrum of new models are emerging, partly because these two industries need each other -- they complement each other. Both sides will suffer, and so will business borrowers, if banks can’t navigate the third-party risk rules of their prudential regulators. (As I often say, the regulators have the hardest job in all this.) More information on Karen: Karen Gordon Mills served as the Administrator of the U.S. Small Business Administration from 2009 until August 2013.  She is currently a Senior Fellow at the Harvard Business School and at the Mossavar-Rahmani Center for Business and Government at the Harvard Kennedy School focusing on U.S. competitiveness, entrepreneurship and innovation. As SBA Administrator and a Cabinet member, Mills served on the President’s National Economic Council and was a key member of the White House economic team.  At the SBA, she led a team of more than 3,000 employees and managed a loan guarantee portfolio of over $100 billion.  Mills is credited with turning around the agency during the financial crisis and with streamlining loan programs, shortening turnaround times, and reducing paperwork.  In addition, Mills helped small businesses create regional economic clusters, gain access to early stage capital, hire skilled workers, boost exports, and tap into government and commercial supply chains.   Prior to the SBA, Mills held leadership positions in the private sector, including as a partner in several private equity firms, and served on the boards of Scotts Miracle-Gro and Arrow Electronics.  Most recently, she was president of MMP Group, which invested in businesses in consumer products, food, textiles, and industrial components.  In 2007, Maine Governor John Baldacci appointed Mills to chair Maine’s Council on Competitiveness and the Economy, where she focused on regional development initiatives, including a regional economic cluster with Maine’s boatbuilding industry.    Mills earned an AB in economics from Harvard University and an MBA from Harvard Business School, where she was a Baker Scholar. Additionally, she is a past vice chair of the Harvard Overseers, and is currently a member of the Council on Foreign Relations and the Harvard Corporation. And listen, too, to our episode from last year with Sam Hodges of Funding Circle, a leading example of platform lending to small businesses.

Our first encounter with those tasty brews from Grand Junction Brewery was at the 2016 Noblesville Brewfest, and boy were we pleased. Owner, Jon Knight, knew he didn’t want to mess with fancy, dancy, new fangled brews.  He wanted to get back to the basics and make good clean beers inspired by his rich European heritage the way they did in the past. So he joined forced with Head Brewer, Shawn Kessel, and went to work and have quickly made the young Grand Junction Brewing Co. one of the most sought after and successful breweries in the state. We had the pleasure of being invited to a special VIP night to sit with Jon, Sean, and assistant brewer, Mike Hofferman, have a few brews and learn more about this wondrous brewing company nestled in downtown Wesfield.    As usual, humor quickly ensues as we devour some fantastic GJ brews, the Orange Bird on a Boat Double IPA, Radio Moscow Imperial Stout, and the perfect Imperfect Backside Stout.  Tune in for the fun and learn more about Jon and Sean’s beginnings into the beer scene and how you can become a member to a special VIP Grand Junction club which has some marvelous benefits. Not only are they making solid brews, they are giving back to the community who is showing so much support for them.  You could feel and love and cheer in the room coming from the packed house of local VIP members.  We bellied up to the bar after the show and had a chance to meet some of the local patrons and hear some of their favorite Grand Junctions stories.  It was a difficult place to leave at the end of the night.  We weren’t able to thank them or their patrons enough for such a fun night and we can’t wait to get back there again.  Lots of shout outs this week including:  Jonathon Mullins and Broad Ripple Brewbub, Chris Knott and Flix Brewhouse, Andrew Castner of Mashcraft Brewing, Anita Johnson and Great Fermentations, The Ram, Chris Bly and Central State Brewing, Dan and Jerry of The Bier Brewery, Brian Graham and Four Day Ray, and of course, Mr. Dan Gohr of Redemption Alewerks   And a big thanks to Mr. Robert Rolfe Feddersen for letting us use his music to end the show.  The big man with the bigger heart, who, like the Pigs, loves this special Indiana craft beer scene.  Check out his page (http://www.robertrolfefeddersen.com/) and find out where you can see him live. http://www.grandjunctionbrewing.com/  

In preparation for tonight’s wintery, spicy, Snow Shed Release, the boys knock back some pints with owner, Brian Graham. Joining the boys, and making his debut on Blind Pig Confessions, is the founder of Indiana On Tap, Justin Knepp. We had the thrill of covering the inaugural Indiana’s Next Hop Model, hosted by Indiana On Tap and Nuvo ,earlier this year. So it was a pleasure to finally meet Justin learn more about all they have to offer the beer lovers of this great Hoosier state. Joining The Indiana On Tap Tasting Society Marketplace gives its members a unique rewards program with benefits from over ninety participating Indiana breweries and partner locations for the dirt cheap price of only $59 a year. Four Day Ray Brewing, being the newest brewery to partner with Indiana On Tap, has a dynamite rewards program now available to Tasting Society Members. Tune into tonight’s episode to find you how you can become one of the cool kids and get some of the best drink specials in the state. And then be sure to make it to The Hatch in Broad Ripple on Friday, January 13th, for the Gathering of the Indiana Tasting Society which will feature brews from Four Day Ray. Much was covered in this entertaining episode, so you won’t want to miss a beat. We discuss our upcoming beer trip on the Indiana On Tap bus, Ale Force One, how to judge “mouthfeel” as Nikki Reed once referred to a beer as “chewy”, craft beer strip joints, a little Tap Room etiquette 101. Be sure to get to FDR this Monday, December 5th to celebrate Repeal Day! Many shout outs tonight which includes; Dos Ringos, Dig In, Noblesville Brewfest, Jonathon Hoyt & Hoosier Brews, Girls Pint Out, Hop Cat, The Dump Buckets, Lebanon, Indiana Mayor, Matthew Gentry, ‘Savor Lebanon’ Craft Beer, Wine and Food Festival, Winterfest 2017, Bottoms Up Beer, Craft Draft 2 Go, and Robert Rolfe Fedderson (who’s tune, My Teri Ann can be heard at the end of this episode). http://www.fourdayray.com/ http://www.indianaontap.com/ http://indianaontap.com/tasting-society-marketplace/

We were stoked to finally get into Four Day Ray Brewing.  While we were patiently waiting for this prime venue in Fishers, Indiana to open, we had the pleasure of trying a few of their brews at the Noblesville Brew Festival this Fall and we fell in love with them instantly.   Tune into tonight's episode as we celebrated National Stout Day as we sat and drank and with owner, Brian Graham, who had over twenty years of home brewing experience before stepping out and opening his own brewery with the help of brewer, Mitch Ackerman, and executive chef, Andrew Miller.  They are taking Fishers by storm with a creative menu and straight forward, full bodied brews that will make any beer lover salivate.  We spent the evening enjoying some fantastic brews while Brian tells the story of FDR and some of its upcoming endeavors and new brews, including their absolutely delicious Imperial Stout which was just tapped a few hours ago to celebrate Black Friday and quench the thirst of the holiday shoppers.  We formed a great friendship with FDR over some fantastic beers and great conversation.  Look for many more Blind Pig/FDR future shows and celebrations. Shout outs to Great Lakes Brewing Company, and to still one of the kings of the stouts, Guinness(although Cowboy, unlike the millions of stout lovers out there, sadly and oddly disagrees) Cheers!   http://www.fourdayray.com/

Nobelsville Brewfest was such an amazing event and the weather could not have been better. So many great beers and wines to choose from and the crowd was fantastic. It was the perfect way to kick off the Fall. We were surrounded in the beer tent with lots of old friends such as the reigning King of Next Hop Model, Dan Gohr of Redemption Alewerks, and we met many new brew friends as the day charged on fueled by some incredible craft beer. In this episode at the Brewfest we are joined in segments by owner and brewer of Heady Hollow, Keefe Pietri, Grand Jucntion Brewing Co.’s Jon Knight and Shawn Kessel, Four Day Ray’s Brian Graham, Fuzic Media’s Brent Oakley, and a very tipsy Riley Wunnerenberg from our very own Pig Pen. We would like to thank Riley for running us samples all day as we worked the mics. A big thanks to Greg and Julia of The Noblesville Brewfest for inviting us to cover this wonderful, annual event. We are already looking forward to being there again next year. Special mentions to Metazoa, Redemption Alewerks, Flix Brewhouse, Scarlet Lane, and the Bier Brewery (we’re not gonna lie… we kinda missed Jerry) Tune in and make sure you don’t miss out next fall. We’ll see you there! Cheers!!

Welcome to our first conversation with an innovator in small business lending – my guest is Sam Hodges, Co-founder and U.S. Managing Director of Funding Circle. Funding Circle was founded in 2012 and is the world’s leading marketplace lender that’s exclusively focused on small businesses. It has made more than $2.5 billion in loans to 20,000 businesses in the U.S., Germany, Spain, the Netherlands and the UK (where it is based). It customers borrow directly from a wide range of investors, including more than 50,000 people, the UK Government, and divers entities like local councils, a university and various financial organizations. Funding Circle was created because the founders were small business owners themselves and learned how hard it is to access finance, even for a successful business. Even when a loan was approved, they found the process difficult, or the terms unattractive. Sometimes they even felt misled. After opening their 96th loan rejection letter, they decided this was a systemic failure – that the traditional bank loan system was broken – and they set out to build a new solution. The financial crisis created fertile ground for them, as so many business suddenly had trouble accessing capital (the number of small businesses has dropped every year for the past 8-10 years). And their timing fit with the emergence of marketplace lending as a new model. As Funding Circle’s Co–Founder and U.S. Managing Director, Sam oversees the company’s overall strategic direction and its day–to–day operation in the U.S. He was previously Vice President of Business Development at SecondMarket, the leading marketplace for alternative investments, where he was responsible for corporate and business development and the company’s geographic expansion efforts. Sam was also part of the investment team at Pequot Capital, an $8 billion global fund manager, covering investments in financial technology and information services. He started  his career as a strategy consultant at Katzenbach Partners, advising financial services and technology companies. He currently serves on the boards of two private companies. He received his MBA and MS from Stanford University and graduated magna cum laude from Brown University. Sam points to three key Funding Circle innovations: One is delivering a superior borrower experience. They can on-board and evaluate customers sometimes in minutes, or a few days, for situations where a bank might need 30 man-hours to reach a decision. Second, they’ve re-architected how they do credit evaluation. Sam says it’s not a silver bullet, but they’ve have created their own rigorous data-driven approach to understanding risk, and they’re using new data, in new ways, to serve more borrowers. And third, he argues that the marketplace model can be more scalable and profitable than the traditional bank approach, enabling them to grow a global business. In our conversation, Sam expresses his continued confidence in the marketplace model. He discusses Funding Circle’s risk analytics (he says they hire world class risk officers from world-class institutions). He explains the role of alternative data in driving more sound and inclusive lending. I was especially interested in how Sam contrasts the U.S. regulatory model with the U.K.’s efforts, especially on P2P lending. He thinks the fragmented American structure makes innovation here difficult. He also has suggestions for regulatory innovation, including sandboxes and a graduated scale of coverage that would allow small innovators to get up and running more easily.  He emphasizes the need for interagency coordination and consistency. He says transparency needs to undergird the whole industry, and that requires smart, sound regulation that everyone understands. (To listen to our previous episode about the “Regulatory Sandbox” with Nitish Pandey of BMO, click here.) Sam welcomes smart customer protection regulation – he discusses his involvement in creating the Small Business Borrower’s Bill of Rights we discussed in an earlier episode with Brian Graham of BancAlliance.  See also this Harvard research paper by former Small Business Administration head Karen Mills on small business lending. I hear increasing discussion about more regulation of small business lending. It’s partly because the online lenders are transforming the market, and partly because the “1099 economy” is producing more little businesses that arguably are functionally-equivalent to consumer borrowers.  The sector is covered by some of the federal laws on consumer protection, but not by most of them.  My own view is that regulation will probably need to come, but that we should NOT transplant the existing consumer protection rules into it without first updating them for the digital age. Speaking as someone who helped develop some of these rules, I will say they have a mixed record, at best, of protecting consumers. And complying with them costs a fortune. If we’re going to bring new regulation into the small business sector, let’s use the chance to take a fresh look, and apply some RegTech thinking. Other notes: Newsletter: I also want to share an announcement -- this month we’re launching a newsletter. It will be pithy and punchy and useful, highlighting the most interesting things that have happened, the most exciting things coming up. It will be a way to share some of the fascinating things I’ve been getting involved with. One example is that, this summer, I joined the Netherlands’ Queen Maxima (who leads the UN’s work on global financial inclusion) on her trip to Silicon Valley. Another is that I just returned from a week in Fiji at the global policy forum of the Alliance for Financial Inclusion, which represents the financial regulators of more than 90 countries in the developing world. I’m also working on ideas for promoting regulatory sandboxes in the United States. And in November, I’ll be speaking in Singapore at Asia’s first RegTech conference. And I’m doing a lot of work on RegTech. In fact, in Fiji I heard a new term – “SuperTech.” It’s a branch of RegTech that means technology-driven solutions for bank supervision. The newsletter will share some of the intriguing things that are going on, outside our poccasts. Don’t forget: Remember to send in your “buck a show” to keep the podcasts coming Support the Podcast Remember to rate us on ITunes.    Coming guests: And look for some amazing guests coming up. We have none other than the leaders of Varo, Ripple, LendUp, and Loot (from London)!

There's perhaps no greater authority on the game of disc golf from an organizational standpoint than Brian Graham, Executive Director of the PDGA. Brian took the time to drive up from his home in Augusta, GA to be our guest for Episode 52, and delivered a tremendous conversation. With K2 unable to call in, Andy and KB held court with the man in charge of disc golf's governing body. Brian was very candid with his interview, as we talked about everything from how Brian started playing disc golf (he used to be a skater) to how he got to be Executive Director of the PDGA to criticisms of the PDGA's governance, logistics and ratings systems. Brian adamantly answers what he thinks is the biggest challenge facing disc golf today, and it may not be what you think. We find out what Brian thinks of the word "frolf" in the Par 4 (sponsored by NoDa Brewing Company) and whether he carries a backpack or a cart on the course.

Episode 38 features Toronto experimental indie rock act Holy F*ck. Brian & Graham talk about the band's new album, Congrats, and "embracing the chaos" during live performance. Songs from Holy F*ck featured in the podcast include Neon Dad and Xed Eyes. Find out more about Holy F*ck at holyfuckmusic.com Follow Holy F*ck on Twitter @holyfuck

In episode 15 of the Minor League Podcast, Adam chats with Orioles director of player development Brian Graham and minor league expert Dean Jones.

Hamish, Jonny and Connor sit down to discuss a hectic week in Scottish football that has brought plane protests at Tynecastle, two Scotland squads and the reemergence of a certain Glasgow derby. The trio preview all of this weekend's upcoming action including all the major talking points like Dundee United's survival bid, Aberdeen's bottle and an attractive looking game at Dens Park on Saturday. They then move to the lower leagues with Rangers procession to the Championship title continuing on Friday against Morton, a final test for Dunfermline in their League 1 title hopes and a rather interesting week in the five-horse race that is League 2. Oh, and there's a cup final to preview with the help of Ross County forward Brian Graham. Enjoy, and send your thoughts on this week's episode to @burstbawpodcast.

I am absolutely delighted to share today's episode -- my conversation with Michael Barr. Most of our listeners know Michael as the former Assistant Treasury Secretary for Financial Institutions who shepherded the Obama administration's efforts on the Dodd-Frank financial reform law. Fewer people may know of his role in developing the proposal for, and negotiating the enactment of, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, which is when I got to know him.  He is now back at the University of Michigan (my own alma mater) as a law professor, and continues to be very active across a wide spectrum of consumer finance and financial regulation activities, and also on lending to small businesses. Michael has thought hard about the toughest challenges in consumer finance, drawing on both his government experience and his academic activities (among other things, he's a Rhodes Scholar). He also works extensively with innovators and nonprofits. In our conversation he offers insights on some of the most critical topics facing consumer finance. Perhaps the most central principle driving his ideas is behavioral economics - coming to grips with the reality that consumers are not perfectly rational, and don't have perfect information, in making financial decisions. "We ought to design both products and policy around the way human beings actually make decisions and behave," Michael tells me. See below for links to his research on this, including his paper "Behaviorally-Informed Regulation." One result of his behavioral focus is a refreshing readiness to rethink consumer financial education. At one point he says, "just as we couldn't explain how our smartphones operate," financial consumers don't necessarily need to know how financial products are designed, in order to use them effectively. He thinks, as I do, that today's technology can create simple new tools that nearly anyone can use, whether they have a sophisticated financial education, or not. Another issue he raises is his involvement in developing the "small business borrowers' bill of rights" (see our earlier podcast discussing this with Brian Graham of BancAlliance). There is growing concern that online small business lending is creating borrower risks as well as opportunities, especially as America shifts toward the so-called 1099 economy and more people run small businesses in ways that closely parallel consumer finance. Michael also explores the challenge of crafting regulation that enables innovation while still blocking harm. He says regulators sometimes allow harmful practices to emerge and grow until they hit a "tipping point," at which point they drive industry standards so low that good companies can't survive without adopting activities they would rather avoid.  I agree with him that this is a key challenge, especially as innovation accelerates.  If regulators intervene too early and aggressively, we'll have the government designing our financial products, instead of the market doing so.  On the other hand, if they are too passive or too late in addressing really harmful practices - especially if they wait until after that tipping point has actually tipped - they will fail to protect large numbers of people from harm, and they may also find it difficult to act.  Once products are widespread, there are strong political forces ready to defend them, as well as practical problems with potential regulatory impacts on businesses and sometimes even the financial system itself. I asked Michael for his advice about these kinds of challenges, for all the players in this ecosystem. I think you'll find his answers really interesting, including some thoughts he shares about the logic behind the design of the CFPB. I also asked him whether we might be moving toward a fundamentally new market model, in which technology-driven transparency will require financial companies to compete mostly on winning and keeping people's trust. His answer to that is thought-provoking, too. Michael was Assistant Secretary of the Treasury for Financial Institutions from 2009-2010. He previously served as Treasury Secretary Robert Rubin's Special Assistant, as Deputy Assistant Secretary of the Treasury for Community Development Policy, as Special Advisor to President Bill Clinton, as Special Advisor and Counselor on the Policy Planning Staff at the State Department, and as a law clerk to U.S. Supreme Court Justice David H. Souter.  He received his J.D. from Yale Law School, an M. Phil in International Relations from Magdalen College, Oxford University as a Rhodes Scholar, and his B.A., summa cum laude, with Honors in History, from Yale University. His activities today include serving on the boards of Lending Club (in Episode 5 we interviewed CEO Renaud LaPlanche) and Ripple, as well as ideas42, a behavioral economics research and development lab. He's on the FDIC Advisory Committee on Economic Inclusion and the Washington Center for Equitable Growth. He's on the advisory board of CFSI and has advised its U.S. Financial Diaries Project (see our interview with Jennifer Tescher of CFSI for more). He is also a fellow at the Filene Research Institute. In his current role as Roy F. and Jean Humphrey Proffitt Professor of Law at the University of Michigan Law School, Michael teaches courses in domestic and international financial regulation. He's also been instrumental in forming the University of Michigan's Center on Finance, Law and Policy, which integrates finance, law, business, and computer science to work on difficult problems facing the world, including how to make the financial system fairer and safer. I highly encourage you to peruse his faculty website to find more resources. Below you can find links to works referenced in the episode: Small Business Borrowers' Bill of Rights Michael's latest book "No Slack: The Financial Lives of Low-Income Americans" Hamilton Project paper on increasing access to capital for minority and women entrepreneurs Michael's paper on Behaviorally Informed Regulation co-authored with Sendhil Mullainathan, Harvard University and Eldar Shafir, Princeton University And here is the site of the FDIC's Advisory Committee on Economic Inclusion                  Enjoy my conversation with Michael Barr!

This episode takes us fully into grappling with how innovation is impacting community banks and how to respond, through a conversation with one of the most thoughtful and thought-provoking people in the field. The community bank is a unique feature of the U.S. financial system, and Brian Graham, CEO of Alliance Partners, is both one of its most eloquent advocates and an innovator with new ideas on how small banks can compete in the digital age.  In 2011, he and his colleagues founded BancAlliance as a collaborative solution that enables community banks to access attractive lending markets typically dominated by larger banks, through use of a shared lending platform. The mission is to empower member banks to diversify prudently into high-quality loans that meet all commercial and regulatory standards – without changing the nature of the community bank. Brian’s team initially focused on large commercial loans. Then, in February of this year, they expanded to consumer credit with the announcements that BancAlliance would partner with Lending Club to enable member banks to offer co-branded personal loans to their customers through Lending Club’s online platform. The program gives community banks and their customers access to the benefits of the Lending Club’s low cost of operations, paired with the banks’ low cost of capital, to help drive down the cost of credit for consumers., The Wall Street Journal noted that, even after Lending Club’s partnerships with Alibaba and Google, the arrangement with BancAlliance might be its “biggest one yet.” CEO of Lending Club, Renaud Laplanche (whom I interviewed in Episode 5), said, “Community banks are the lifeblood of American communities. This program will help them level the playing field with national banks by offering affordable, consumer-friendly loans to their customers. We’re excited to make Lending Club’s low cost of operations available to community banks, for the greater benefit of their customers.” BancAlliance’s network includes over 200 banks in 39 states, with assets ranging from $200 million to $10 billion. In aggregate, BancAlliance would rank fourth in branch count among all U.S. banks and 14th in assets. I have been a longtime optimist about the future of community banks, until the last few years. Small banks today face the twin challenges of innovative technology and regulatory burden squeezing the industry’s business model from two directions at once. Brian’s vision offers a potential model for addressing both. In our conversation, Brian makes the case for the value of community banks; offers advice to them for thriving through technological disruption; and makes suggestions for regulators (including on “suitability). He also describes a proposed new “bill of rights” for small business borrowers – he’s been involved with a coalition working on this with the Aspen Institute. Brian also offers insights into how technology, after decades of favoring consolidation and large players, is suddenly creating advantages for small ones, through the unbundling of tech solutions and through unexpected developments like Square, transforming the small business lending market. Brian was previously a partner at Blue Ridge Capital Management, held various leadership positions at CapitalSource and Fannie Mae, and served in the government and investment-banking sectors. He holds a graduate degree from Harvard College and an MBA from Stanford University. It was a pleasure to host him at my former abode in Washington, DC -- the day before I began packing up to move to Boston for my new fellowship on Regulation Innovation at Harvard! It was a very fitting finale for my Washington days and a launch into my “year at the frontier” of fintech innovation. Enjoy the conversation, and as a bonus, click the following for The Small Borrowers’ Bill of Rights and an argument from the Aspen Institute on why we need one. Also, remember to watch my website for the Regulation Innovation video briefings on these same topics, coming soon!
