Our institutions didn't fail overnight — they were systematically captured. Elizabeth Burch breaks down how it happened, who benefited, and why it was never an accident. Elizabeth Burch is a Professor of Law at the University of Georgia School of Law we examine what has led to the current breakdown in accountability, trust, and integrity — and why so many structures designed to protect the public are no longer functioning as intended.Burch also exposes a staggering case of mass organized fraud, documented in her book “Selling the Dream meets Empire of Pain” — a shocking, never-told-before story of three women caught in a web of telemarketing scammers, corrupt doctors, big pharma and profit-driven lawyers who turned fear surrounding a faulty medical device affecting millions of women into a massive financial scheme.You can learn more or buy her latest book at https://ElizabethChambleeBurch.com
The recent Trump move against Venezuela, even at this early stage, is already a model for disastrous geopolitical planning. Did we really need to disrupt a neighboring country by plucking away its leader, in order to seize oilfields full of substandard oil and in a complete state of infrastructure decay - at a moment when there's a glut of supply? While that baseline answer might seem clear, the situation is a complete mess, and Texas stands to be right in the middle of it. Joining us to try and unravel it all for this talk, we welcome Houston State Representative and Democratic nominee for the Texas Railroad Commission Jon Rosenthal, and Progress Texas-endorsed former Railroad Commission candidate and petroleum science expert Bill Burch.Learn more about Rep. Rosenthal and his campaign at https://jonrosenthaltx.com/.Thanks for listening! Learn more about Progress Texas and how you can support our ongoing work at https://progresstexas.org/.

In this episode, Therese Markow and Elizabeth Burch discuss Elizabeth's new book, "The Pain Brokers: How Con Men, Call Centers, and Rogue Doctors Fuel America's Lawsuit Factory," which exposes a scheme where con artists, attorneys, and rogue doctors exploited women through mass torts involving pelvic mesh implants. Elizabeth explains how mass torts differ from class actions and explains how attorneys earn contingency fees. Throughout the episode, they discuss the ways in which the scheme was perpetuated and how vulnerable women were exploited by a data breach in India. Key Takeaways: A tort is a harm, such as a punch or a car accident. A mass tort is when those harms happen on a large scale. Mass torts can be a goldmine for lawyers (and there is a convention held twice a year regarding mass torts in Las Vegas). This can be concerning as more states are allowing law firms to be owned, even partially, by non-lawyers. Many of the women involved with this mass tort were conned by people who had their specific information, including birth dates, surgery dates, and other medical information. It created a lot of confusion for many. "You can imagine that your scam detector would probably go off if someone called you and asked you for that information. But if someone calls you and they already know your birth date and the name of your implanting doctor and the type of mesh that you have and exactly when you had the surgery and where you had the surgery, then all of a sudden it feels a lot more legitimate." — Elizabeth Burch Connect with Elizabeth Burch: Professional Bio: https://www.elizabethchambleeburch.com/about Website: https://www.elizabethchambleeburch.com/ Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/eburch.bsky.social LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/elizabethcburch/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/elizabethcburch/ X: https://x.com/elizabethcburch Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ECBurch/ Pre-Order The Pain Brokers: How Con Men, Call Centers, and Rogue Doctors Fuel America's Lawsuit Factory here: https://www.simonandschuster.com/books/The-Pain-Brokers/Elizabeth-Chamblee-Burch/9781668068861 Connect with Therese: Website: www.criticallyspeaking.net Bluesky: @CriticallySpeaking.bsky.social Instagram: @criticallyspeakingpodcast Email: theresemarkow@criticallyspeaking.net Audio production by Turnkey Podcast Productions.

In Episode 87, Ike Eastman sits down for a genuine conversation with Matt Burch of Burch Rodeo and Four Horse Outfitters — a fifth-generation Wyoming rancher, stock contractor, elk steward, and one of the most interesting characters in the rodeo. From managing 300,000+ acres of prime elk, mule deer, and antelope habitat to raising some of the most respected bucking horses and bulls in the PRCA, Matt gives a rare look behind the gates of ranch life, rodeo culture, and wildlife management. Ike and Matt cover everything from the explosive growth of elk herds on their ground, to the realities of running one of the country's premier bucking-horse programs, to hauling stock across the West, to the legendary New Year's Eve Bucking Ball in Gillette. They also dig into the conservation mindset that keeps this landscape healthy — selective harvest, habitat stewardship, letting young bulls grow, and why ranchers are the backbone of Wyoming wildlife. If you love hunting, rodeo, ranch stories, Western grit, or just honest conversations with real people, Episode 87 is a must-listen.

The CopDoc Podcast - Season 9 - Episode 162Policing changes fastest when leaders listen first and translate ideas into real work. That's the throughline in our conversation with Jim Burch, president of the National Policing Institute, who shares a candid view of how a small team amplifies big impact: distilling research into actionable guidance, helping agencies adapt—not copy—what works elsewhere, and building partnerships that move from concept to implementation. Jim draws on decades across DOJ and ATF, and he's blunt about what unlocks progress: focused mission, field-driven priorities, and a healthy respect for regional differences that shape what “evidence-based” looks like on the ground.We dig into NPI's multi-city hot spots training experiment that cut crime by more than 20 percent without driving arrests up, and how implementation science turns studies into day-to-day practice. Jim opens up about cross-sector learning—borrowing just-in-time training from airlines and safety culture from fire and EMS—and why policing earns “profession” status when cities budget for standards, education, and officer wellness, not just cars and calls. He also tackles mission creep, the limits of co-response in under-resourced regions, and the practical ways agencies can pool capacity without losing local trust.AI is the tension point many leaders feel. Jim explains why NPI moved from tight restrictions to governed adoption—policies, transparency, and training—after seeing real productivity gains in analysis, drafting, and data work. Forget the narrow use-case fights; the near-term upside is smarter internal workflows that free experts to make better decisions faster. Paired with clear research summaries and careful adaptation, AI becomes a legitimate force multiplier for public service.If you care about evidence-based policing, officer wellness, and practical innovation that respects community nuance, this conversation offers both realism and hope.

For the first time ever, New York City Economic Development Corporation is staging a special Investor Summit in collaboration with AFIRE for international institutional capital that's focused on US property investing. With the summit in mind, AFIRE CEO Gunnar Branson sat down with chief operating officer of NYCEDC, Melissa Román Burch, for a pulse check on New York City's CRE environment. “New York City is an engine that is always thinking about growth,” says Burch. Currently, New York City Mayor Eric Adams has set a goal of creating 500,000 housing units over the next 10 years, with roughly 30,000 units expected to come from office-to-residential conversions. Meanwhile, two new trophy office skyscrapers have broken ground, totaling about 2 million square feet of new infrastructure. Looking ahead, the city projects 400,000 green-collar jobs by 2040, underscoring New York's commitment to both economic growth and sustainability. The conversation covers the key sectors driving momentum—office, housing, energy, and transportation—while also asking the bigger questions: Where are the opportunities hiding? How will office-to-residential conversions reshape neighborhoods? And what will New York look like in five years?
