On this episode of the Songfacts Podcast, host Stephanie R. Myers speaks with Don Barnes, founding member, guitarist, songwriter, and longtime voice of 38 Special, as the band celebrates 50 years and the release of Milestone, their first new studio album in more than two decades. We dig into the stories behind some of the songs that helped define 38 Special, including “Hold On Loosely” and “Caught Up in You,” and how the band found its signature balance of Southern rock muscle and undeniable melody. Don also talks about making Milestone, what it means to still be creating new music five decades in, and the chemistry and songwriting instincts that have kept 38 Special moving forward. Along the way, he reflects on the band's remarkable longevity, the songs he wishes he'd written, and what he's learned from a lifetime of making music that's built to last.

Anita Baker's second album, “Rapture,” was released in 1986 and became a breakout hit for the R & B singer from Detroit, winning two Grammys and selling eight million copies worldwide. The album's eight tracks defined her signature sound — what Baker liked to call “fireside love songs with jazz overtones” — and solidified her as a giant of the Quiet Storm radio era. But while the singer went on to produce four more albums, most notably her follow-up, “Giving You the Best That I Got,” in 1988, she hasn't maintained the mainstream presence of her “Rapture” years. Today, Wesley wonders: Is Baker underrated, properly rated, or just kind of … forgotten? He brings these questions to Danyel Smith, former editor at Billboard and editor in chief of Vibe Magazine. Together, they luxuriate in Anita Baker's “Rapture” while wrestling with her legacy. Subscribe today at nytimes.com/podcasts or on Apple Podcasts and Spotify.

Going global stopped being a phase-two project. The brands winning now are global on day one. Going global profitably is the harder business, and the levers that decide it are the ones nobody puts on a slide.Matthew Merrilees has spent two decades on the operational side of cross-border, starting at DHL and now running North America for Global-e. He and Rick walk the international P&L line by line. Payment acquiring, which is bigger than most operators assume. Duty and tax. Classification. Drawback.The math changed underneath everyone. US de minimis went from $800 to zero, so every inbound parcel is dutiable and every SKU needs an HS code. The EU now applies a three-euro charge per unique HS code below the 150 euro threshold, which quietly wrecks any sitewide promotion running a mixed catalog. Seventy-five regulatory changes in the US alone, by Matthew's count.Also covered: why most brands refund duties and taxes to returning international shoppers and never reclaim them, why the Section 321 play through Mexico is finished, what a real multi-carrier setup looks like in practice, and the thinking behind Global-e buying Passport.This episode is sponsored by Avalara.

Coach Owens talks about the upcoming season
Ten minutes of audio disappears, so we do what any responsible garage crew would do: laugh, splice it together, and immediately start making a list of who we owe giveaway prizes to. We've got an August 15 event coming up at Mayobi, and before we roll into the next stretch of the year, we're getting caught up the only way we know how by drawing monthly winners live and calling ourselves out for being bad at shipping stuff on time. If you've been waiting on gear, this one's worth your time.From there, the conversation swings into the stuff that keeps off-road life running behind the scenes: supporters who help us stay motivated, what our Buzzsprout stats say about where we rank, and the kind of hauling stories that make you ask, “Should that vehicle really have a receiver hitch?” Yes, we're talking about a Prius doing truck things, plus the ongoing quest to haul smarter without turning everything into a white-knuckle drive.The main tech rabbit hole is towing and trailer setup. We break down a new 34-foot PJ gooseneck with air ride suspension, an air ride hitch, and electric over hydraulic disc brakes, then get into brake controller tuning, loading angles, and why ramps can turn a calm day into a fast problem. We also recap Milwaukee Madness, share what Milwaukee reps hinted is coming next (including a battery-powered fridge/freezer), and flag a “you won” scam message so you don't get caught clicking the wrong link.If you like real shop talk, off-road problem solving, and gear talk with zero polish, hit subscribe, share this with a friend, and leave a review. What's the sketchiest thing you've ever hauled or towed?Support the show#heattreatedgarage #fellas #myfriendsarebetterthanyourfriends #abethe50chevy #ickyvicky #tetanus #scout #htgadventures #socialbutterflymedia #crawleroffroad #podcast #nailedit #trailhated #seasontwo #dontfollowcal #meetnewpeople #ontherocksoffroad #988 #suicideawareness #wyattwarriorshttps://youtube.com/@heattreatedgarage?si=zKZLGcioixSqLbg8, https://youtube.com/@ricosgarage?si=eP4tMxqAGJozvHdq, Check out our Brothers over at On the Rocks Offroad Podcast https://feeds.buzzsprout.com/2317265.rss

The Hide and Seek family is back together for a very busy catch-up. Joenas returns from Thailand with stories from judging Mr Bear International, including national costumes, bear pool parties, bouncing castles and the challenges faced by queer titleholders in countries where LGBTQIA+ people have limited legal protection. Craig takes us behind the scenes of the Australian Leather Competition, reflecting on the contestants, judging process, standout moments and Australian Leather's plans to provide stronger mentoring for non-cis-male competitors. Then the team looks ahead to a packed calendar of bear, leather, pup and fetish events across Australia, including International Mr Leather, Southern Hibernation, Mr Australasia Bear, Sydney's leather titles, Brisbane Leather Week and the Australian Pup and Handler Competition.

Since going back to work after maternity leave, has anyone - a manager, a colleague, a well-meaning relative - implied that you've changed? That you're not quite as driven as you used to be? Maybe your focus has shifted? Because here's the truth: you haven't changed. Not in the way they think. Your ambition is still there, it's just evolved into something sharper, more purposeful, and more powerful than it's ever been. The problem isn't you. The world around you just hasn't caught up yet. This week on Working Mumma, I'm sitting down with Kat Francis, a Melbourne-based leadership coach for ambitious women, keynote speaker. Kat spent two decades climbing through creative agencies to Managing Director level, then walked away from equity and ownership to build a career that actually aligned with who she'd become. This conversation is honest, validating, and deeply practical. Whether you're fresh back from mat leave or a few years in and wondering why your career still feels like it's running in slow motion, this one is for you. In this episode we cover: The LinkedIn post about ambition after motherhood and why it struck such a raw nerve with Australian working mums Kat's own pivot: walking away from an MD role with equity on the table, and what that decision revealed about values, identity and what we actually want from work The data from The Ambition Report that's hard to hear - only 16% of mums were promoted after returning from mat leave, and only 23% received a pay rise Why your ambition didn't disappear after kids, it got sharper, and why that gets misread as "less committed" The settling trap: how so many women come back from maternity leave and quietly accept a role that's comfortable but hollow and how to stop How to advocate for yourself with outdated managers without burning bridges or losing your composure The motherhood penalty vs the fatherhood bonus, what it actually looks like in Australian workplaces right now How to have the ambition conversation with your partner and why getting on the same page about success changes everything Connect with Kat Francis Website: coachkat.com.au LinkedIn: Kat Francis Connect with Carina and Working Mumma Follow on Instagram Follow Working Mumma podcast on Instagram Connect with Carina on LinkedIn Subscribe to the newsletter
For Dr. Jonnie Schnytzer, Jewish mysticism teaches us to recognize that nothing in this world is the way it appears to be. Kabbalistic study is a process in deconstructing something we think we understand and rebuilding it. Dr. Jonnie Schnytzer has a PhD in Jewish Philosophy and currently teaches at Bar-Ilan University. Previously, Jonnie has served as advisor to the CEO of Taglit-Birthright Israel, led Israel advocacy delegations with StandWithUs, and directed the strategic partnerships of the Israel-Asia Center.Now, he joins us to answer eighteen questions on Jewish mysticism with Rabbi Dr. Benji Levy including how teshuva [repentance] begins with knowing you were born perfect, the question of Jewish governance, and how Torah study is the pathway to personal growth. Here are our questions: What is Jewish mysticism?How were you introduced to Jewish mysticism?In an ideal world, would all Jews be mystics?What do you think of when you think of God?What is the purpose of the Jewish people?How does prayer work?What is the goal of Torah study?Does Jewish mysticism view men and women the same?Should Judaism be hard or easy?Why did God create the world? Can humans do something that is against God's will?What do you think of when you think about Moshiach?Is the State of Israel part of the final redemption?What is the greatest challenge facing the world today?How has modernity changed Jewish mysticism?What differentiates Jewish mysticism from the mysticism of other religions? Does one need to be religious to study Jewish mysticism?Can mysticism be dangerous?How has Jewish mysticism affected your relationships with yourself and with others?What is a Jewish teaching that you always take with you?

There are some great opportunities to take, and mistakes to avoid, when making the move from or to the UK. And the best way to make the most of the move is to chat to an expert in cross-jurisdictional tax to make it easy!In this second part of my conversation with Nicola Goldsmith, we get into the areas that tend to trip people up most. And honestly, this comes up a lot in conversations with clients.There's often a belief that tax residency is something you can manage or “choose,” or that if you're not physically in a country, you've left the tax system behind. As Nicola explains, it's not quite that simple. We step through what really happens when you leave the UK but keep UK assets, how double tax treaties actually work in practice (and why they don't eliminate tax altogether), and the risks that come with business structures and remote working across borders.The key thing to note here is that many of these issues aren't obvious until you're already in the middle of them. And by then, it can be costly to unwind. This is one of those areas where understanding the detail upfront can make a very real difference.Main Topics Discussed in this EpisodeThe Myth of “Choosing” Your Tax Residency: A common misconception is that you can decide where you're tax resident, when in reality, tax authorities have extensive data to determine your position whether you realise it or not.How Tax Authorities Track Your Movements: From flight data to banking activity, Nicola explains how easily tax authorities can cross-reference information across jurisdictions when something doesn't add up.Understanding Double Tax Treaties in Practice: Double tax treaties don't eliminate tax - they determine where tax is paid first and how relief is given, which is often misunderstood by expats.Keeping UK Assets While Living Abroad: Just because you've left the UK doesn't mean your UK income or gains fall outside the UK tax net, particularly when it comes to property and other source-based income.Business Structures, Remote Work & Permanent Establishment Risks: Running a business or working remotely from another country can unintentionally create tax exposure in that new jurisdiction, even for individuals operating through their own company.Book a consult with Nicola Website: www.expattaxes.co.ukLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nicola-goldsmith-tep-cta-b22363149/ *****Use the link below and quote "Expat Taxes" when registering with Currencies Direct to receive a €50 One4All or Amazon voucher when you transfer €5000 or more in your first six months with Currencies Direct.*Click here for a special offer from our sponsor, Currencies Direct******If you loved this episode or have a similar story, we'd love to hear from you!

When Every Deal Worked... Until The Math Caught Up - Kasey Wong In today's episode, I'm joined again by real estate investor, entrepreneur, and educator Kasey Wong for a powerful two-part conversation on mindset, investing, and navigating today's changing market. In Part 1, we explore why traditional systems often teach people to fit in while real success comes from thinking differently.

Women's Leadership Success Podcast — Episode 161Executive Summary: In 2026's era of mass layoffs and rapid restructuring, talented women leaders are being thrust into expanded roles before they feel ready. Executive coach Sabrina Braham reveals the 3-move framework — drawn from 30+ years of client breakthroughs — that transforms overwhelm into executive presence and lasting confidence.Quick Takeaways:75% of executive women have experienced imposter syndrome — even after earning their seat (KPMG).The skills that made you successful at your last level often stop working at the next one.Confidence is not certainty — it's steadiness while uncertainty still exists.Silence creates anxiety; even imperfect clarity helps teams move forward.Leadership doesn't begin when confidence arrives — it begins when you decide to move anyway.The Role Just Got Bigger. Your Confidence Hasn't Caught Up. Now What?You didn't plan for this. The promotion path you imagined — deliberate, supported, well-timed — isn't what happened. Instead, a reorganization happened. Layoffs happened. Two managers left in the same week. And suddenly, you're carrying responsibilities that didn't exist in your job description six months ago, with a team looking to you for answers you're not sure you have yet.If this sounds familiar, you're not behind. You're right on time.I'm Sabrina Braham, MA, MFT, PCC — executive leadership coach with over 30 years of experience helping senior women leaders step into bigger roles with confidence and clarity. The Women's Leadership Success Podcast has surpassed 900,000 downloads and is ranked in the top 1.5% of podcasts globally. Clients include leaders at Stanford University, Ernst & Young, Autodesk, and companies of all sizes — from high-growth startups to global enterprises.In Episode 161, my husband and co-producer Tim Warren turns the microphone around and interviews me — because over the past year, one challenge has shown up in virtually every coaching engagement I've had: talented, proven leaders being asked to lead roles that expanded faster than their confidence. This episode — and this guide — is for you.The 2026 Reality: Forced Expansion Is the New Normal for Women LeadersWhat's happening in the workplace right now isn't a temporary disruption. It's a structural shift — and it's disproportionately landing on the shoulders of high-performing women.Grant Thornton's 2026 Women in Business research found that women's representation in senior U.S. leadership dropped from 35% to 31% in just two years — precisely as layoffs consolidated organizational structures and eliminated the middle-management layers that once served as leadership on-ramps. Fewer women are getting promoted through deliberate paths, and more are being pulled into expanded roles through organizational necessity.Meanwhile, a March 2026 Stanton Chase study of 132 women executives across 45 countries found that the single most consistent piece of advice from women who had reached the C-suite? Move before you feel ready. More than 50 of the 132 respondents — independently, across industries and continents — said some version of: "Don't wait until you feel 100% prepared."And yet KPMG research shows that 75% of executive women have personally experienced imposter syndrome — even those who have objectively succeeded at the highest levels. That gap between external achievement and internal confidence isn't a character flaw. It's a predictable psychological pattern — and one you can navigate strategically.What "Forced Expansion" Actually Looks LikeForced expansion is what I call the pattern where leaders aren't stepping into bigger roles through a thoughtful promotion path — they're being pulled into them. Someone leaves. A division gets cut. Departments combine. Budgets tighten. And suddenly, one capable leader is carrying the work of two or three.One of my clients last week illustrates this perfectly: an engineer was hired at a top company into a manager role. On his third day, the two other managers in his division quit — and he went from overseeing one section to overseeing all of them. That's not an edge case anymore. That's Tuesday.Another client — a leader in manufacturing — inherited a second, highly technical department she had never led, after a round of layoffs. Her first instinct was: I need to know everything before I speak with confidence. That belief was slowing her down. We changed the model. She stopped trying to be the smartest person in every room. Instead, she began asking sharper questions, clarified priorities, built accountability, and used the expertise already around her. Within months, executives stopped seeing someone who was overwhelmed — and saw someone who was expanding. That changed everything.Why High Performers Struggle Most When Roles ExpandHere's the uncomfortable truth that most leadership advice doesn't address directly: what made you successful at your last level often stops working at the next one.High performers are rewarded for execution, reliability, doing more, and fixing problems personally. But senior leadership rewards something different: direction, judgment, influence, composure, and decision-making without certainty. Many smart leaders try to win the next level using the habits from the last level — and that creates burnout fast.You may recognize yourself in any of these:More responsibility, but less clarity on what success looks likeGreater visibility with senior leaders — with bigger expectations and fewer instructionsPressure to lead confidently while still learning the terrainFeeling capable, but not fully readyWondering how to be seen as promotion-ready when you're still figuring out the new scopeBeing strong technically, but stretched strategicallyIf any of this feels familiar, you are not behind. You are in the exact transition where careers accelerate — or stall. And how you navigate it determines which direction yours goes.The Trap: Waiting for Internal PermissionThe most common behavior I see in leaders experiencing forced expansion is what I call waiting for internal permission. They over-prepare. They hesitate. They second-guess. They believe, somewhere deep down, that they need to know everything before they can speak with confidence.That belief is expensive. It costs you time, opportunity, and the trust of the team waiting for you to lead.The mindset shift that changes everything: stop trying to prove you deserve the role. Start acting like you belong in it. Presence is built in motion. Confidence grows through reps. You become ready by leading.The 3-Move Framework for Leading Before You're ReadyWhen I work with leaders navigating forced expansion, these three moves consistently separate the ones who rise from the ones who stall.Move 1: Define Success ClearlyGet a vivid picture in your mind of what it looks like when you're truly succeeding in this role — not performing, not surviving, but succeeding. What decisions are you making? How is your team showing up? What are senior leaders saying about your impact?Write it down. Specificity is power here. And remember: not everything matters equally. Forced expansion often means 10 priorities land at once — but only two or three actually move the needle right now. Identify those and protect your focus fiercely.Try This Now (10 minutes): Open a blank document and write your answer to this question: "If I'm wildly successful in this expanded role 90 days from now, what is true?" Don't edit. Don't filter. Let yourself see it clearly first.Move 2: Build an Advisory CircleLeadership is not a solo performance. One of the most powerful things you can do in a stretch role is identify the people — inside and outside your organization — who have the expertise, context, and candor to help you navigate.This is not about admitting weakness. It's about operating strategically. The executives who rise fastest in times of organizational change are the ones who mobilize the intelligence around them, not the ones who try to contain every answer personally.Your advisory circle might include: a peer in another department who knows the terrain you've newly inherited; a mentor who has navigated similar transitions; a coach who can help you build your next-level skillset; and experts on your own team whose knowledge you can leverage while you're learning.The Stanton Chase 2026 study found that securing sponsors — people who advocate for you behind closed doors — is the second most consistent differentiator for women who reach the C-suite. A mentor advises you. A sponsor walks into a room where your name isn't being mentioned and makes sure it is.Move 3: Communicate Often — Even Without All the AnswersSilence creates anxiety. Clarity creates momentum. Even imperfect clarity helps teams move.Your team doesn't need you to have all the answers. They need to know someone is navigating — that there is direction, even if the path is still forming. The strongest leaders I know can say: "We don't know everything yet. Here's our next move. We'll adjust as we learn."That kind of leadership doesn't weaken trust. It builds it. Establish a communication rhythm immediately: weekly team check-ins, regular updates to your senior leadership, brief touchpoints with stakeholders in areas you've newly inherited. Don't wait for perfect information. Communicate your thinking, your priorities, and your progress — and invite input along the way.
