In S5Ep4 of the PRP, Adam chops it up with decades long run for fun enthusiast, flashy but low key drip queen, down right knee-slapping pun machine and recent Boston Marathon finishing Bandit Quinn Mizikar who has been preparing for the Risk it for the Biscuit 5K on May 4th, 2025. Sarah Krawczyk & Michelle Kay, serial PRP offenders, Bandit Racing Team icons and same-page poets return to the show to offer their take on the joy of running, the strength of friendship, and the healing power of honoring someone you love.While Quinn takes the official guest seat, she shares the mic generously with Michelle and Sarah to help spotlight the upcoming third annual Risk it for the Biscuit 5K—a race founded in loving memory of Michelle's late husband and Sarah's longtime friend, Stephen Kay. Tap in to learn more about the Stephen Kay Foundation and hear how what started as a way to process grief has become a joyful & uplifting tradition—inviting runners from all over Michigan to celebrate Stephen's legacy by doing what he loved most: living fully, running freely, and showing up for others with heart & humor.The Bandit trio unpacks their collective Boston reflections, the power of staying calm at the starting line, and how letting go of pressure can unlock something truly special. From garden hauls and parenting wins to banana cravings, getting puked on, and the mystical powers of a going straight to Rick's, this one is equal parts therapy session, hype squad and communal tribute.Things get vulnerable when Michelle shares an update on her ongoing journey with grief and reflects on how organizing this event has helped her transform a part of Stephen's memory from something sorrowful into something celebratory—a space filled with honor, laughter, mugs, joy, and just the right amount of race-day chaos.What in the world is an OBERON LITE?! Nanner nubs?! Can you learn from anyone if you just let them teach you? Can you feel that Ferry magic?! Why is Sarah always channeling her inner Des?! Cedar point, Strava monsters & Boston cream pie oh my!!This and so much more in a warm, therapeutic and deeply human episode of the PRP.

The argument that authoritarian governments are better at dealing with the climate emergency is gaining ground, fuelled by the idea that undemocratic states face fewer constraints and so can operate more efficiently and effectively. Some are even arguing that this isn't just a necessary evil but a legitimate policy response to pending environmental catastrophe. Yet the data suggests that on average authoritarian governments do not perform better, and on many measures actually do worse than democracies. So why does this idea persist? Join Nic Cheeseman as he talks to Nomi Claire Lazar and Jeremy Wallace about their new article on Resisting the Authoritarian Temptation. Why is democracy not delivering? Why is authoritarianism not the answer? And what new models exist that can be used to deliver a greener and more inclusive future?

Guest: Nomi Claire Lazar is a Professor of Politics in the Graduate School of Public and International Affairs at the University of Ottawa. Her work looks at crises from a range of perspectives, including emergency powers, constitutional legitimacy and climate politics.

She is at work on a book on apocalyptic politics, and is a frequent contributor of commentary to news outlets around the world. Jeremy Wallace is the A.

This episode, recorded live at the Becker's Hospital Review 15th Annual Meeting, features Dugan Winkie, Vice President, Head of Commercial Strategy at Cedar. He shares insights on the launch of Cedar's new AI voice agent Kora, and how it's reducing costs for providers, streamlining patient billing experiences, and shaping the future of healthcare financial engagement.This episode is sponsored by Cedar.

In this episode of Builders Wanted, we sit down with Dugan Winkie, Head of Commercial Strategy at Cedar, to explore how AI is reshaping one of the most emotionally complex industries: healthcare. From frustrating call center experiences to opaque billing processes, Dugan breaks down how Cedar is reimagining patient engagement with conversational AI, real-time data, and a builder's mindset.-------------------Key Takeaways:Strategic innovation involves closely monitoring market feedback, especially given significant operational cost constraints, regulatory uncertainties, and budget cuts.The use of conversational AI ensures that patients receive timely and accurate assistance, which reduces dependency on call centers and enhances the overall patient experience.Health systems must balance using innovative technologies while adhering to strict regulatory frameworks to ensure a seamless and secure patient financial experience.-------------------“ There is a lot of information silos, simultaneously, where we're expecting patients to know how to navigate a very complex system.  And we think conversational AI and agentic AI is a great manifestation where we can leverage a lot of our core competency and network connections to help answer those patients' questions in a way that is delightful.” – Dugan Winkie-------------------Episode Timestamps:‍*(02:10) - The boldest thing Cedar is building right now‍*(03:52) - How Cedar is using AI to humanize the patient financial experience‍*(14:24) - Recent patient behaviors that pushed Cedar to rethink the billing experience‍*(23:11) - How Cedar designed its AI agent, Kora, to be helpful and empathetic to patients‍*(31:10) - How Cedar is balancing AI innovation and healthcare regulations‍*(35:40) - How AI has already improved the patient journey-------------------Links:Connect with Dugan on LinkedInConnect with Kailey on LinkedInLearn more about Caspian Studios-------------------SponsorBuilders Wanted is brought to you by Twilio – the Customer Engagement Platform that helps builders turn real-time data into meaningful customer experiences.

This is a special episode that features a conversation between Sonia Bussu and Hans Asenbaum on democracy, capitalism, climate and the practices and prospects of participatory, deliberative and more-than-human democracy to transform their relationship.

She has led on projects on youth participation to influence mental health policy, youth employment policies, as well as coproduction of research on health and social care integration, and leadership styles within collaborative governance. She is scientific coordinator of a Horizon Europe project on participatory policymaking, INSPIRE. She is co-editor of Reclaiming Participatory Governance: Social Movements and the Reinvention of Democratic Innovation. Routledge. Hans Asenbaum is a Senior Research Fellow at the Centre for Deliberative Democracy and Global Governance at the University of Canberra.

In a candid episode of The New Stack Makers, Kubernetes pioneer Kelsey Hightower and AWS's Eswar Bala explored the evolving relationship between enterprise cloud providers and open source software at KubeCon+CloudNativeCon London. Hightower highlighted open source's origins as a grassroots movement challenging big vendors, and shared how it gave people—especially those without traditional tech credentials—a way into the industry. Recalling his own journey, Hightower emphasized that open source empowered individuals through contribution over credentials.Bala traced the early development of Kubernetes and his own transition from building container orchestration systems to launching AWS's Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS), driven by growing customer demand. The discussion, recorded at KubeCon + CloudNativeCon Europe, touched on how open source is now central to enterprise cloud strategies, with AWS not only contributing but creating projects like Karpenter, Cedar, and Kro.Both speakers agreed that open source's collaborative model—where companies build in public and customers drive innovation—has reshaped the cloud ecosystem, turning former tensions into partnerships built on community-driven progress.Learn more from The New Stack about the relationship between enterprise cloud providers and open source software:The Metamorphosis of Open Source: An Industry in TransitionThe Complex Relationship Between Cloud Providers and Open SourceHow Open Source Has Turned the Tables on Enterprise SoftwareJoin our community of newsletter subscribers to stay on top of the news and at the top of your game.

Contact Scott from Bonsai MatsuIt's time for a mid Autumn or Fall check in. There are lots of jobs that need to be done at this time of the year and plenty to keep an eye on too. I like to run through a final checklist before it's too late to make a difference. Cedars as bonsai are just brilliant, with so many variations on styling and colour of the foliage, they truly are one of my favourites. To get the most out of their appearance and development there are certain tasks I undertake now which I will run through and explain.Support the showBecome a podcast supporter and show the Bonsai Love (it's really appreciated) ❤️https://www.buzzsprout.com/263290/supportWhere to find Bonsai Matsu:InstagramFacebookYouTube Web

Or were some forms of colonial rule more likely to give rise to stable and effective democracies?

Beekeeping has evolved significantly over the years, and few innovations have sparked as much conversation as the Flow Hive. In this episode, Jeff and Becky welcome back Flow Hive co-founder, Cedar Anderson, who shares exciting updates on their latest innovation—the Superlifter. Designed to make hive inspections easier and more accessible for beekeepers of all experience levels, the Superlifter allows for effortless lifting of heavy honey supers, reducing strain on beekeepers' backs and improving hive management. Cedar shares the journey behind this invention, including years of prototyping and refining the design. With a simple, easy-to-use system, the Superlifter works with any Langstroth hive—making it a game-changer for beekeepers who struggle with heavy lifting. Jeff and Becky discuss how this tool could revolutionize hive inspections, especially for beekeepers with physical limitations. Beyond product development, Cedar dives into Flow Hive's commitment to education and sustainability, including the Billions of Blossoms initiative, which has already resulted in the planting of over 1.5 million trees to restore pollinator habitats. The team at Flow Hive continues to expand its educational offerings through TheBeekeeper.org, helping both new and experienced beekeepers improve their skills. Join us for this insightful conversation about the intersection of innovation, sustainability, and making beekeeping more accessible to all.
