Rourke Sefton-Minns scaled his AI creator business from zero to eight figures in one year by turning audience, education, and creative AI into a business system.Drew and Rory invited Rourke Sefton-Minns on to discuss AI and somehow ended up reverse-engineering a business built on sleep streaming, 420 straight days of posting, multiple failed creator experiments, hitting zero in the bank, and an apparently unhealthy refusal to quit. Rourke breaks down how Gen HQ grew, why brand partnerships now drive hundreds of thousands in monthly revenue, why learning AI tools is often the least important part of getting paid, and why the best move for aspiring AI creatives may be finding the client before figuring out every last detail.Rourke Sefton-Minns explains Gen HQ, AI creator businesses, brand partnerships, LinkedIn client acquisition, spec work, creative partner programs, Meta advertising, Adobe Photoshop Generative Fill, CapCut, Google Gemini, node-based workflows, narrative-loop content, creator burnout, AI careers, and generative AI-powered fandom. He also shares a practical three-month playbook for landing paid AI creative work and his mission to create 100,000 jobs for creatives through AI.---⏱️ Fast Hour00:00 Rourke Sefton-Minns, Gen HQ and 100K jobs02:55 Five social pages before the one that worked05:03 The sleep-streaming business that changed everything09:03 Making $10K a month at 21, then burning out13:04 Betting everything on a six-month ski channel17:11 The persistence lesson behind hitting zero20:50 420 days of posting before the AI pivot28:40 Why Gen Z sees generative AI as the enemy33:01 Why great AI content starts with communication35:10 Inside his vibe-coded content idea system39:19 How long a viral AI video takes to make43:20 Why AI creators burn out46:14 Outsourcing creativity made burnout worse47:27 Why changing formats brought the fun back50:25 How narrative-loop videos create retention52:44 How his 8-figure AI business makes money56:10 Why $40K a month in Meta ads is not enough57:12 The business skills AI creatives overlook01:00:51 The 100,000-jobs North Star01:03:29 How to land your first paying AI client01:07:51 What major AI brands actually want01:12:30 Why boring products can win spec-work clients01:14:09 The four-post strategy for winning brands01:17:47 AI fan content as a new growth engine

I'm joined by Concscious Cannabis Queen, Hannah Elrose to discuss how she used to feel shame around the very thing that was meant to become her medicine. She was holding back from going all IN on sharing it...until we gave it a world. In this episode, we unpack what happened when she stopped hiding what made her different, built a movement around her medicine, and created an obsession-worthy following that's now growing her membership every single day. This is what happens when you stop hiding your gifts, frequency and codes and start building the world your people have been waiting for.

On this episode of The Immigration Lawyer's Toolbox® Podcast, host John Khosravi sits down with returning guest Roman Zelichenko, J.D. to unpack what's really happening in the growing wave of immigration law firm M&A: how firms are actually valued, why some attorneys inflate their revenue numbers with filing fees, the difference between a true acquisition and a "merger" that's really more of a hire, why clean books can make or break a deal, and what private equity's track record in dentistry, HVAC, and plumbing suggests about where legal consolidation is headed. Whether you're thinking about selling, buying, merging, or just want to run your firm like it's sellable, this episode is full of practical insight on the business side of immigration law.

Dr Emma Southon is no stranger to this show, but just in case you have somehow missed her many previous appearances, here's what you need to know!Emma holds a PhD in Ancient History and is the author of a number of fabulous books about the ancient world. This includes: A History of the Roman Empire in 21 Women, A Fatal Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum and Agrippina: Empress, Exile, Hustler, Whore. Not only a writer, Emma also co-hosts the History is Sexy podcast. Besides all this, she's an all round fabulous human and cat-lover.In this episode, we were fortunate enough to chat to her about her latest book, Servus: How Slavery Made the Roman Empire - or, if you are based in the US, the alternative title is Not Built in a Day: How Slavery Made the Roman Empire.Along with deep research into the source material, Emma considers the emotional experience of being an enslaved person in various contexts within the Roman world. This can be a challenging topic to study, and not only because of how truly awful it was. We just don't have as much as we would like from the perspective of enslaved people, or about their lives in general. Enslaved people were not considered to be suitable subjects for long biographies. Things to Look Out For: ‘Best' and ‘worst' case scenarios for an enslaved personHow slavery evolved throughout Rome's history Resistance to slavery ManumissionFreedmen and women Family relationshipsSlave rebellions (hey Spartacus!)

What does it really take to rebuild your business, reputation, and confidence after losing almost everything?In this episode of the Builders of Authority Podcast, the tables are turned as Adam McChesney steps away from the host's chair and is interviewed by Builders of Authority COO Alejandra during her visit to the St. Louis office.Adam shares the complete story behind his entrepreneurial journey, from working in corporate medical device sales and learning digital marketing through an online course to building his first performance-based marketing website and eventually launching an agency.He also opens up about one of the most difficult periods of his life: the collapse of a previous business partnership in early 2024. Adam discusses the legal and financial consequences, the mental burden of feeling like a failure, and the decision to start over when quitting would have been easier.In this conversation, Adam and Alejandra discuss:• Transitioning from corporate medical device sales into entrepreneurship• Learning digital marketing and building his first website• Navigating the legal and financial impact of a failed business partnership• Overcoming the mental burden and identity crisis caused by professional failure• Rebuilding Builders of Authority from a small team into an agency of approximately 50 employees• Scaling a company rapidly without following a traditional agency growth model• Prioritizing committed, high-quality people instead of replacing teams with AI tools• Creating long-term client relationships by deeply serving the people who trust you• The pressure entrepreneurship can place on marriage, family, and personal health• Evolving individual skills and leadership abilities at the same rate the company growsAdam also speaks candidly about the personal cost of rebuilding a business. He reflects on struggling to remain mentally present at home, the pressure placed on his wife, Delaney, and the responsibility he feels as a father to his son, Murphy.He closes the conversation with a direct message for entrepreneurs experiencing failure and advice for his internal team on what it takes to grow alongside a rapidly scaling company.

What happens when you've built a business for years around something you love ... and suddenly nothing works anymore?For Human Design expert and Pointy Aura founder Tangie Nadimi, that question became WAY bigger than social media strategy. After years of momentum, she found herself throwing money, coaching, energy, and ideas at a business she desperately wanted to save, until she started wondering whether the business was really the thing asking to be saved.What came next became an entirely new body of work.

Tim Tuoni went from riding backhoes as a kid to running Tuoni Site Development, and he's got zero patience for people who think construction guys are just difficult for the sake of it.In this episode, Tim breaks down what actually gets mislabeled as "a-hole energy" in this industry: it's standards. It's direct communication. It's not tolerating half-effort on a highway job where mistakes cost real money and real safety. He and Jesse dig into what it's like building a company under public scrutiny, including dealing with the YouTube and social media critics who've never swung a hammer but have plenty of opinions.Tim also gets real about the moment that changed his trajectory: walking off a job after a safety incident and taking a leap into subcontract work before he was "ready." He talks about the mechanical skills that saved him money and made him dangerous in a good way, how he uses LinkedIn every single day to market himself and scout opportunities, and why he now shows up for Crew Collaborative classroom talks to give students a real alternative to the college-or-bust narrative.If you need a reset on what actually matters in this trade, Tim's closing line says it all: "It's just f*ing dirt. You're never above a shovel."Connect with Timhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/timothy-tuoni-16730893/https://tuonisitedevelopmentllc.com/In this episode:Why the industry's reputation for being "difficult" is really about standardsBuilding a business in the age of social media criticsThe safety incident that pushed Tim into entrepreneurshipUsing LinkedIn as a daily marketing and research toolWhy he's showing up in classrooms to change how kids see this career path00:00 Just Dirt Mindset00:18 Meet Tim Toonie02:09 Construction People Standards05:41 Mentors And Online Critics09:52 Why Equipment Life Chose Him13:03 First Machines First Memories15:24 Skid Steer Lessons And Antics18:25 Getting Hired Certified Today21:09 Starting His Own Company24:39 Resourcefulness Under Pressure30:27 Saving Money With Repairs33:03 Time Versus Money Skills33:59 DIY Marketing Learning Curve35:28 LinkedIn Outreach Playbook39:28 Creative Prospecting For Contractors42:35 Why He Volunteers44:02 Trades Versus College Paths51:27 Where To Connect Online54:48 Promise Intended To Be58:00 Never Above A ShovelLets leave the Construction Industry Better than We Found It https://www.depthbuilder.com/construction-leadership-lab Download the free PDF copy of Becoming the Promise You are Intended to Be

What does it take to tear up a million-dollar check and bet everything on a dream? That's exactly what Tim Gannon did when he walked away from Al Copeland to co-found Outback Steakhouse with just $37 in his pocketIn this episode, Dan Rowe sits down with Tim to unpack the philosophy, partnerships, and food obsession that turned a scrappy steakhouse concept, born from a Crocodile Dundee viewing session, into one of the most iconic casual dining empires in history.Tune in as we explore:(02:03) Tim Gannon's journey from Florence to food(05:55) The dinner that inspired chef-driven casual dining(09:26) ‘Serious Food Meetings' and exacting standards(10:25) Tearing up a million-dollar check(12:09) The four partners and their distinct roles(15:07) How Outback got its name and Australian theme(22:01) The Manager Partner Program that changed lives(28:34) How the partner model fueled explosive growth(30:14) Real estate strategy and the 2:1 sales ratio(35:05) Putting the partner's name above the door(36:34) Lessons from international expansion(39:20) ‘Principles and Beliefs' culture documentOn why knowing your product to exacting standards separates good from greatTim Gannon: "I can eat a Bloomin' Onion today and tell you if it was cooked at 342 or 349 temperature. That's knowing your products to exacting standards. That's what George was."On why making money with people, not from them, is the real business modelTim Gannon: "I wanted to make my money with someone, not for someone. And that was a very important lesson because I knew Al Copeland and he would pay me well, but it would always be kind of his money. I was uncomfortable with that."On why taking care of your people first is the only sequence that worksTim Gannon: "The first commitment was to our Outbackers. Think about your employees first, because if you take care of them, they're going to take care of the guests. Well, the financial guy's going to be happy. The financial results are always going to be there."

This episode is about what happens after the spiritual underworld. About the woman who went down, took on the lessons nobody up the line was willing to take on, and came back up carrying something. And about what she is supposed to do with it.The Vessel is open. A year of live, personal work building the structure your family draws from — the membership, the income, and the portion of it that is left to compound.→ Come and see The VesselI saw a quote — I didn't build this for me, I built this so that you can breathe.There has been a lot of noise lately about parents who keep providing for their adult children, and a lot of disdain aimed at them. What I hear underneath that disdain is survival. A parent who has run out of energy will always find a reason why the running out was necessary — it made me stronger, it will make them stronger — and will call the exhaustion a virtue.I don't agree with it. If you have been down into the Spiritual Underworld, if you know what it is to be unable to breathe, you would never wish that on anyone, least of all the people who came out of your own body.The excuse dressed as a lesson. I had to do it, so you should have to do it too. Where that comes from, and why it is a lower form of consciousness rather than a moral position.The alchemical marriage. The animus rising as provider and protector — and why a woman with her inner masculine activated will simply not tolerate the idea of her children being sent out into the world with nothing.Why survival closes the portal. A woman forced into toxic masculine energy, pulling her weight, giving and giving and giving, no longer has access to the divine. And she is the one who was meant to hold the vision for everybody. Her family contracts instead of expanding, and nobody understands why.Energy that doesn't run out. The difference between the mother who is burnt out by eighteen and the mother whose children can lean on her strength at forty. It isn't temperament. It's whether the inner masculine is awake.The shaman and the village. Not everyone has to go down. One goes down and comes back wise, and the rest are spared. If you are listening to this podcast, it was probably you. Which means it is now your job to keep the others out of it.Your future selves are your children too. The woman at fifty, sixty, eighty, a hundred — she is another grown child you are responsible for. She either thanks you for what you did now, or she inherits your suffering because you unconsciously handed it forward.What the structure actually is. You gather your community around something you love. They pay you for it. You live on part of it and pour the rest into a vessel that compounds, quietly, for years — until the structure is stronger than you are. Your energy declines with age. The structure does not.Two generations down. Providing for your children and your grandchildren, through wisdom and experience they don't have yet and you do.I didn't build this for me. I built this so that you can breathe.Only one person needs to do the suffering for the family. If they do it properly, the rest get to enjoy that.When you go into the spiritual underworld, you come out as a provider and a protector.You have access to such superpower energy within you, beyond what seems reasonably normal. It's the same thing as lifting a car off your child.Your energy is declining. And yet the structure is getting stronger and stronger and stronger.The Vessel is where this gets built. Not the philosophy of it — the actual thing. A membership of a few hundred people gathered around something you genuinely love, priced so that a significant portion of what comes in can be set aside and left to compound. Built quickly, in the first weeks. Held for a year while it takes root.It is one structure, built once, that your future selves and your children and their children can draw from — so that nobody else in your bloodline has to go down there and learn what you learned.→ The Vessel

The 8 Marks of a Bible Built Believer by Sterchi Hills

For hours at a time, I sat alone in my garage smoking a pipe. No secrets. No shame. Nothing I'd have to hide if you walked in. And that "harmless little hobby" was quietly eating my life.This episode isn't about my struggles — it's about yours. Maybe your garage is a bottle, a game, a phone, the gym, the boat, or the deer stand. Hobbies are good. But there's a difference between a hobby that restores you to your people and an escape that removes you from them.In this episode:The escape I never wrote about in either of my booksThe "false positive" — how the enemy comes through the door you never thought to check1 Corinthians 6:12 — permissible things that master youGenesis 3:9 — the first question God ever asked a man: "Where are you?"Four practical steps to name what's underneath and take your hours backTHIS WEEK'S CHALLENGE: Name your garage. One sentence: "My escape is ___, and it helps me avoid ___." Then drop the word GARAGE in the comments — and when you see it from another brother, pray for him. He just turned on a light.RESOURCES:

Episode 92: You will learn how the total cost of a custom panelized home package is calculated based on site conditions, engineering requirements, and structural complexity rather than simple per-square-foot estimates. You will discover how acting as your own general contractor eliminates general contractor fees, protects your budget against unforeseen material shortages, and builds immediate home equity. Additionally, you will learn how precision-manufactured wall panels and pre-engineered trusses streamline the framing process to get your home dried-in significantly faster than traditional stick building. Finally, you will understand how comprehensive architectural design, structural engineering, and energy code compliance come together as a unified system to deliver superior long-term home quality.

Kristy Ellmer and Julia Dhar, co-authors of How Change Really Works and founders of BCG's Behavioral Science Lab, explain why so many transformations fail and what the science says separates success from failure. They break down the “messy middle,” why people resist being changed rather than change itself, and how giving employees real agency turns resistance into momentum.What You'll Learn:Why “false alignment” among leaders, not resistance from employees, derails most transformations before they start.Why giving employees real ownership, not just participation, turns resistance into momentum.What makes AI transformations distinct from other kinds of organizational changeLearn More:Read How Change Really Works: https://on.bcg.com/3SpBPzdYour AI Change Is Actually a People Change: https://on.bcg.com/3RKUp4JThe False Alignment Trap: https://on.bcg.com/45R9ULHCEOs Are Betting Big on AI Transformations.

One program in the treatment timeline was designed specifically for postpartum patients. Women & Infants Hospital in Providence ran a partial hospitalization track for mothers dealing with mood disorders after childbirth. Lindsay Clancy's nurse practitioner sent her there in mid-December 2022 on an urgent basis.The Commonwealth alleges Clancy murdered her three children, Cora, Dawson, and Callan, at the family's Duxbury home on January 24, 2023. She has acknowledged killing them. Her defense asserts she was in a psychotic state driven by postpartum illness. The prosecution argues she acted rationally and with planning.Jollotta anticipated Clancy would remain in the program for two weeks. According to testimony at Plymouth Superior Court, she stayed for a single day. Reddington pressed Jollotta on whether staff declined to admit Clancy over concerns about overmedication.Jollotta testified she was troubled by the early departure and told Clancy in a message that group therapy and additional support could help. She was reluctant to taper Seroquel because it had been easing Clancy's depression and sleep. Before leaving for vacation, Jollotta left a written taper plan on December 21.Reddington produced hospital records suggesting Women & Infants attempted to reach Jollotta and received no answer. She denied receiving any call. Jollotta acknowledged she never communicated with Dr. Jennifer Tufts, the psychiatrist managing Clancy's medications at the same time. The prosecution closed by asking whether Jollotta ever suspected postpartum psychosis. She testified she had not.Listen Anywhere You Get Podcasts: https://pod.link/1655749292Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

I want to alert you, so you don’t miss out on expert analysis and insider perspectives from my guests who provide tips that can help you uplift the community, improve your financial planning, motivation, or advice on how to be a successful entrepreneur. Keep winning! Two-time Emmy and Three-time NAACP Image Award-winning, television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed Michael Woodward. Interview Overview Guest: Michael WoodwardHost: Rushion McDonaldShow: Money Making Conversations MasterclassFocus: Entrepreneurship, real estate, education, overcoming poverty, and building generational wealthCompany Featured: Woodward Property Group Michael Woodward shares his journey from growing up in low‑income neighborhoods in Miami to becoming a successful real estate investor, contractor, and property management entrepreneur based in Atlanta. The conversation blends personal history, mindset lessons, and practical business guidance, especially for listeners from underserved communities. Purpose of the Interview The purpose of the interview is to: Demystify success for everyday people by showing how discipline, education, and calculated risk can lead to financial freedom Inspire listeners to move beyond circumstances of poverty or limitation Teach practical strategies around education choices, real estate investing, side hustles, credit management, and seizing opportunity Highlight community impact, mentorship, and “reaching back” to help others Rushion McDonald consistently frames the discussion around helping the audience “stop reading other people’s success stories and start planning your own." Key Themes & Takeaways 1. Poverty Is Relative — and Often Invisible Woodward explains that many people grow up in poverty without realizing it because everyone around them shares the same conditions. He distinguishes between government definitions of poverty and lived experience. Takeaway: Awareness is the first step to change; normal does not always mean acceptable. 2. Early Business Lessons Came from the Community Woodward credits his grandmother—who ran an informal candy business in the housing projects—as his first exposure to entrepreneurship. Watching her manage inventory, customers, and cash taught him foundational business principles. Takeaway: Entrepreneurship often begins long before formal education—especially in underserved communities. 3. Education as a Strategic Tool, Not Just a Degree Initially planning to become a lawyer, Woodward changed direction after realizing law school would not provide the financial or social return he hoped for unless he reached elite status. A mentor guided him toward education as a pathway for impact. He strongly recommends the Occupational Outlook Handbook as a practical guide for choosing careers based on income, longevity, and demand. Takeaway: Choose education intentionally—based on outcomes, not prestige. 4. Service Before Profit: Two Decades in Education Woodward spent over 20 years as a teacher and assistant principal, mentoring students, organizing college tours, and running summer STEM programs—often during his breaks. Takeaway: Long‑term service builds perspective, discipline, and purpose that later pays dividends in business. 5. Turning a Side Hustle into Financial Freedom While working in education, Woodward renovated homes at night and on weekends. Over time, rental income exceeded his school salary, allowing him to retire from education and focus on real estate full‑time. Takeaway: Side hustles can become exit strategies when managed consistently and patiently. 6. Opportunity Comes from Relationships A chance relationship with a Lowe’s executive changed Woodward’s business trajectory. When asked if he could do high‑end kitchens, he said yes—then partnered with the right experts to deliver. This led to contracts in seven Lowe’s stores across metro Atlanta. Takeaway: You don’t have to know everything—just know who to call. 7. High‑End Thinking Changes Income Ceilings Woodward explains the difference between standard and high‑end construction, describing six‑figure kitchens and appliances that cost more than many homes. Takeaway: Understanding premium markets unlocks entirely different financial opportunities. 8. Two Core Business Rules: Persistence and Credit When asked what advice he gives most often, Woodward gives two principles: Never give up Protect your credit He shares how poor credit once forced him to reinvest profits just to buy tools, slowing growth. Managing credit later removed those barriers. Takeaway: Credit is leverage. Without it, growth is harder and more expensive. Notable Quotes On poverty: “A lot of people living in poverty don’t know that they’re impoverished because everybody around them looks just like them.” On education choices: “I wanted to make a difference… and education allowed me to do that.” On opportunity and courage: “You don’t have to know everything. Just get the people in your corner that do.” On advice to entrepreneurs: “Never give up. And protect your credit. Credit is everything.” On consistency: “My phone number has been the same for 23 years. I ain’t going nowhere. Overall Impact The interview positions Michael Woodward as a practical role model—someone who combines humility, preparation, faith, and execution. Rather than promoting quick wins, the conversation emphasizes long‑term discipline, community uplift, and strategic decision‑making. Core message: Sustainable success is built step‑by‑step—through education, relationships, credit discipline, and the courage to say yes before you feel ready. #SHMS #BEST #STRAW Money Making Conversations Master Class with Rushion McDonald is America's premier entrepreneurship, business leadership, financial literacy, and wealth-building podcast featuring successful entrepreneurs, executives, founders, celebrities, and industry experts sharing actionable insights for professional and financial success.

In this episode of the Built to Birth Podcast, we're sitting down to talk through Ashley's birth story—from preparing for birth and choosing the right birth team to navigating an unexpected preeclampsia diagnosis and induction.We talk about what it looked like to make decisions when birth didn't go exactly as planned, how important it was to feel informed and supported along the way, and why having a birth team you truly trust can make such a difference.We also get into some of the really special moments from her birth—the photos and videos she has to look back on, her baby being born in the amniotic sac, and what her recovery and postpartum experience looked like afterward.More than anything, this conversation is such a good reminder that preparing for birth isn't about trying to control exactly how your birth unfolds. It's about understanding your options, learning to trust your body, surrounding yourself with people you trust, and feeling confident making decisions along the way.If you're pregnant and preparing for birth—or you just love hearing real, honest birth stories—I hope this episode leaves you feeling encouraged and empowered.Learn more about the Built To Birth Course - Click HereTakeawaysHow family experiences can shape the way we think about pregnancy and birthWhy preparing for birth matters, even when things don't go according to planChoosing a birth team you feel safe with and trustNavigating high blood pressure, preeclampsia and inductionMaking informed decisions and advocating for yourself during laborThe importance of autonomy during birthLearning to trust and believe in your bodyHow education and preparation can help you feel more confident and empoweredRecovery and the postpartum experienceChapters00:00 Family and Pregnancy03:03 Preparing for Birth12:03 Choosing the Right Team20:52 Dealing with Pre-Eclampsia22:25 Preeclampsia Diagnosis and Induction26:13 Labor and Delivery Experience29:09 Informed Decision-Making and Advocacy42:43 The Birth Experience43:30 The Impact of Pictures and Videos43:58 The Significance of the Sack of Water45:08 The Importance of Autonomy in Birth53:19 Recovery and Postpartum Experience58:57 Support and Encouragement for Moms

Despite completing nearly 700 value-add properties, he openly admits he has never liked the work of real estate—he simply built systems, processes, and teams so he doesn't have to do it himself.

In week one of our GOOD NEWS series through 1 & 2 Corinthians, Pastor Jason Britt dives into 1 Corinthians 1 to explore why the message of the cross is as revolutionary today as it was in the first century. Just like ancient Corinth, our culture promises status, significance, and self-reliance—yet true freedom is found only at the foot of the cross. Discover how a bigger view of Jesus dismantles division, humbles our pride, and frees us from the pressure to be impressive.

Built on the grounds of a former cotton plantation, the Tuskegee Institute, founded by Booker T. Washington, offered agricultural and industrial education as a strategy for Black self-determination. There―and in many other communities in the U.S. South, the Caribbean, and Central America―Black people repurposed and regenerated what had been a place of enslavement into a site for imagining alternative futures. Jarvis C. McInnis charts a new account of Black modernity by centering Tuskegee'svision of agrarian worldmaking. He traces the diasporic ties and networks of exchange that linked Black communities in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Although Washington is often regarded as an accommodationist, McInnis shows how artists, intellectuals, and political leaders―including George Washington Carver, Jean Price-Mars, Zora Neale Hurston, Claude McKay, and Marcus Garvey―adapted Tuskegee's methods into dynamic strategies for liberation in places like Cuba, Puerto Rico, Haiti, and Jamaica. Even as the legacy of the plantation continued to circumscribe Black life, these thinkers found resources in its ruins to forge new theories and practices of progress, aesthetic innovation, and freedom that contributed to the New Negro Movement of the 1920s and 1930s. In contrast to traditional understandings of Black modernity as urban and premised on northward migration, McInnis foregrounds rural settings and practices of place making, rootedness, and liberatory agriculture. Shedding new light on the transnational influence of a historically Black institution in the U.S. South, Afterlives of the Plantation remaps Black cultural, intellectual, and political histories down to the very soil. Afterlives of the Plantation: Plotting Agrarian Futures in the Global Black South (Columbia University Press, 2025) is an award-winning monograph earning recognition as a winner of the 2026 S-USIH Annual Book Prize by the Society for U.S. Intellectual History, 2026 Pauli Murray Book Prize in Black Intellectual History by the African American Intellectual History Society, and the 2026 ASALH Book Prize by the Association for the Study of African American Life and History Kishauna Soljour is an Assistant Professor of Public Humanities at San Diego State University.

In 2023, Edmonton Police expanded online reporting to include hate incidents—conduct that is not a crime—and allowed reports to be filed on behalf of someone else. In 2024, Crime Stoppers, EPS and the Government of Alberta launched buses displaying: "See hate. Report hate." In 2026, Parliament passed Bill C-9 with Liberal and Bloc support despite opposition from the Conservatives, NDP, Greens and more than 40 civil society organizations, including the CBA, CCLA, CLC and Egale.Britain adopted a similar system in 2014. Since then, police have recorded 133,000+ non-crime hate incidents. In 2023, 37 police forces made 12,183 arrests over electronic communications, with fewer than 1,119 convictions. In 2021, the Court of Appeal ruled the recording guidance had a chilling effect on free expression.**This episode examines that history, explains what Bill C-9 actually changed, corrects two claims circulating online that describe the bill as introduced rather than as passed, and explains why I believe these developments matter.

He explains why FT goes deeper than traditional investment banks, how the firm has built decades-long relationships with founders, and why incentives, founder ownership, and putting your own capital behind your conviction matter.They also discuss FT's $50 million investment in Revolut, what Steve looks for in great founders, the work ethic required to build a firm over 25 years, surviving multiple financial crises, and why he believes AI will ultimately be a bigger disruption to financial services than the internet, mobile, or crypto.Timestamps00:00 Intro02:20 Leaving Goldman and Starting FT Partners11:00 Turning a $150M Offer Into a $550M Sale18:30 How FT Partners Values Companies28:30 Building Long-Term Founder Relationships34:00 Founder Incentives and the Revolut Bet52:00 What Steve Looks for in Great Founders1:08:00 The Future of Fintech, Crypto, and AITommy: https://x.com/Shaughnessy119Steve: https://x.com/FTPartners

Who handles generative engine optimization for you? Not for your company - for you. A brand has an answer to that question: a team, a vendor, a budget line, a dashboard somebody checks on Mondays. A person usually has nobody at all, and the tools that do exist were built to read websites, which turns out to be a thin substitute for a career. In this episode of The Trending Communicator, host Dan Nestle sits down with his own business partner, Erin Lanuti, co-founder and CEO of Lilypath and former Chief Innovation Officer at Omnicom Public Relations Group. Erin spent two decades building the measurement and AI search machinery that tells systems how to read brands, and kept running into the same asymmetry: companies have infrastructure to govern how they get interpreted, and individuals have nothing close to it. Authority Intelligence(TM) is the discipline she, Dan, and Todd Grossman built for the second problem. The conversation moves from measuring earned media without a pixel to why she started digging into generative engine optimization roughly nine months before the industry had a name for it. What follows is Erin's case for why the individual version of that problem needs its own tools, and why the damage stays invisible to the person it's happening to. It ends on the question Erin says she hears from clients more than any other right now, which is whether they need their agency at all. Listen in and hear about: Why GEO tooling built for brands doesn't do the job when the subject is a person rather than a website Why an authority built for human audiences doesn't carry over to a machine one, and what has to be rebuilt from scratch How Conversation2Commerce and OmniearnedID measured earned media without a pixel, and why impressions survived anyway The Tide Pod scenario that turned AI search from a marketing question into a legal and reputational one What happens to earned citations when the outlets that produce them keep shutting down The value question clients are now asking their agencies out loud Notable Quotes from Erin "I keep saying measurement needs an intervention. It does, because we have better tech than we've ever had. And the consumer journey has changed. And we have to ask ourselves why. Why are we measuring that? What's the importance of that metric? Is that still true today?" "Help me understand how, in a world where advertising budgets are getting cut to these publications and we're losing tons of earned media outlets every day, in this new world of GEO, when earned is more important than ever, if they're all shutting down, how are we going to get those earned citations?" "As we look at some of the most respected people in the world that we've been doing some analyses on, these people should be perfect in the AI system. And they're far from perfect." "There are people that have way less authority but know how to game the system. They know that if they assemble a clear picture around a topic, clear, concise, consistent, that their authority in the eyes of a machine can be perceived higher than people who without question have higher status or stature."

Send us Fan MailToday's guests are Diego Davis and Danielle Doyle, co-founders of Access Healthcare, a nurse-founded healthcare staffing agency connecting healthcare professionals with opportunities across the United States and internationally.Danielle and Diego began their careers at the bedside before becoming travel nurses, and it was during a travel assignment that they met. Drawing from their own experiences as clinicians, they set out to build a staffing agency that would treat nurses as people—not just placements.Today, Danielle serves as CEO and Diego as CFO, leading one of the fastest-growing healthcare staffing agencies in the industry. But what stood out most to me during our conversation wasn't their impressive growth—it was their genuine passion for supporting the nurses they serve. Their leadership is rooted in understanding the realities of travel nursing because they've lived it themselves.In this episode, we talk about their journey from bedside nursing to entrepreneurship, the evolving world of healthcare staffing, what travel nurses should look for in an agency, and how putting clinicians first creates better experiences for nurses, healthcare facilities, and ultimately, patients.Whether you're a seasoned travel nurse, considering your first assignment, or simply curious about the business behind healthcare staffing, I think you'll find this conversation insightful, encouraging, and refreshingly genuine.In the five-minute snippet: It's a version of the Newlywed Game, and I think Diego's got the right idea.For Diego and Danielle's bios, visit my website (link below).Contact The Conversing Nurse podcastInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/theconversingnursepodcast/Website: https://theconversingnursepodcast.comYour review is so important to this Indie podcaster!

Episode 4202 │ August 10, 2026 Congress never approved a national camera network. Corporations built one anyway — county commission by county commission, one at a time. WHAT THIS EPISODE COVERS  Scott Kesterson maps the rapid expansion of Flock Safety's automatic license plate reader network — now over 113,000 cameras nationwide despite Congress never approving a national surveillance program — and exposes the mechanism that made it possible: companies offer counties the first year free, bypassing public hearings because sheriffs can approve donations without commission votes, then leverage near-zero churn once the poles are in the ground and the data lock-in is established, a $7.5 billion company built on the same renewal model as municipal fluoride contracts. Scott confirms that FBI preliminary 2025 data shows violent crime down 9.3%, murder down 18.1%, and property crime down 12.4%, even as 69% of survey respondents believe crime is rising nationally — a fear-driven perception gap that political incentive structures exploit, since a sheriff's career survives a privacy violation but rarely survives a preventable crime, and the episode traces the documented pattern of FBI entrapment cases like the Newburgh Four and a Portland bombing plot to warn what AI-scanned camera networks will do once they begin flagging repeated drive-bys as suspicious behavior with no discernment. The episode closes with a practical action plan: a free downloadable Citizens Field Guide under Bards FM's downloads section that walks any resident through auditing their county's ALPR data-sharing agreements, building the specific evidence needed to bring a real argument to a county commission for non-renewal. KEY QUESTIONS ADDRESSED  How did a national surveillance network of over 113,000 automatic license plate readers get built when Congress never approved one — and why does the county-by-county corporate strategy, offering free first-year cameras that bypass public hearings, mirror the same model that made fluoride contracts nearly impossible to remove once installed? Why does crime perception run in the opposite direction of actual crime statistics — with FBI data showing violent crime down 9.3% and murder down 18.1% in 2025 while 69% of Americans believe crime is rising — and what does that gap reveal about how fear rather than data drives acceptance of surveillance technology? What does the documented pattern of FBI entrapment cases like the Newburgh Four and a Portland bombing plot reveal about what happens when AI-scanned camera networks start flagging repeated drive-bys as suspicious — and what specific action can any resident take right now to audit their county's camera data-sharing agreements?
