Podcasts about Chaser

If a brand is no longer what a company says it is, but the sum of every experience a customer has, what does that mean for the marketing department's role in the organization?Agility requires more than just adapting to market changes; it demands a fundamental shift from broadcasting a message to engineering an experience. It requires a willingness to unlearn old definitions of brand and embrace a new reality where customer perception is the ultimate truth.Today, we're going to talk about what some are calling a "reformation" in branding. It's a move away from the traditional model of logos, slogans, and campaigns, and toward a new understanding where the brand is the cumulative effect of every single customer interaction. This shift has massive implications for organizational structure, strategy, and how we measure success.To help me discuss this topic, I'd like to welcome, Lou Carbone, Professor of Practice, Michigan State University & Founder/Chief Experience Officer at Experience Engineering.

Recorded live from day two of Xerocon London. Xero opened the show with two solid hours of announcements. Xero Force, the Ultra plan, smart data capture, JAX and a big push on the rise of the builder. Most of it is in beta and lands later in the year. So we spent two days in the hall asking the people it lands on what they actually made of it. The centrepiece is our interview with Kate Haywood, MD of Xero UK. We put it to her straight. The accounting and bookkeeping channel arguably is not as important to Xero's revenue as it once was, so does there need to be a bit more honesty about where accountants and bookkeepers sit in the hierarchy? She did not dodge it. "They are fundamentally important to us at Xero, and especially here in the UK." We also pushed her on the ecosystem. When Xero ships data capture, invoice chasing and reporting, it starts competing with the app partners who built on top of it. Kate says Xero is an open ecosystem led by what is right for the customer, and that if you try and build everything you end up building nothing. The vendors are less relaxed about it. Daniel Rock of SuiteFiles reckons "there's a lot of app vendors that will feel very squeezed". David Tuck of Mayday is delighted, because the Ultra plan points straight at his market. Jordan Vickery of Vinyl says nobody is running scared, which was disappointingly uncontroversial of him. Reuben from Briefcase wishes more people were trying to do what they do. The accountants are warier. Plenty of hope in the room, not much validation yet. Stuart Hurst points out that JAX launched two years ago and not a great deal has happened. Sharon, ten Xerocons in, says this one felt different, because Xero has become a bigger and more corporate establishment and it is "lacking a little bit of the human side". David from Youtopia goes further. "I don't think people actually implement anything from these shows." Featuring David Tuck (MayDay), Daniel Rock (SuiteFiles), Vipul Sheth (AdvanceTrack), Jordan Vickery (Vinyl), Reuben (Briefcase), Kate Haywood (Xero UK), Jim, Ravi, Sharon, Stuart Hurst, Will, David (Youtopia) and Sam. Is Xero still building for accountants, or around them? Chapters 00:00  Cold open 00:37  Live from day two. The party, the slide and the design lab 07:06  David Tuck, Mayday.

This is a spoiler-filled review and discussion of Obsession (2026), directed by Curry Barker and starring Inde Navarrette and Michael Johnston, covering the film's themes, performances, and ending. Obsession is finally on digital — and Inde Navarrette's performance as Nikki is going to haunt you. Brian and John are joined by returning guest Jordan the Grey Witch to break down Curry Barker's indie horror hit that's outgrossing studio tentpoles on a fraction of the budget — including why Bear might have the most punchable face in horror this year. We cover why this "nice guy" is actually the real monster of the movie, the wish-stick logic and how it compares to Monkey's Paw-style horror, our favorite "holy sh*t" scenes, how Obsession stacks up against Twilight Zone's "The Chaser" and Tales from the Crypt, and why original horror is quietly beating the box office right now. Plus: our Letterboxd reviews segment — including a trivia-night warning you need to hear. No spoiler-free zone here — full spoilers ahead once we get past the setup, so watch or listen to the movie first if you're avoiding them.

How much of your marketing and CX investment is being undermined in the final mile by a sales conversation that goes off the rails?Agility requires our customer-facing teams do more than recite a script; they need the situational awareness to navigate complex conversations in real time. This capability isn't just a sales skill—it's a critical component of the overall customer experience.Today, we're talking about the gap between traditional sales training and real-world performance. Most reps forget the majority of what they learn, and classroom theory often fails to prepare them for the pressure and unpredictability of live buyer interactions. We'll explore how AI-powered simulation is moving beyond static role-play to create deliberate practice environments where teams can build the muscle memory needed for high-stakes conversations.To help me discuss this topic, I'd like to welcome, Sam Dorison, Co-founder and Chief Executive Officer at ReflexAI.

In a world of infinite entertainment choices, how does a sports franchise earn a fan's loyalty when the game isn't being played?Agility requires meeting fans where they are, with the right message at the right moment, whether they're on their couch or in their seat. This means adapting communication strategies in real-time to create a conversation, not just a broadcast.Today, we're going to talk about how sports franchises are navigating an incredibly crowded calendar to build deeper relationships with their fans. It's no longer just about what happens on the field or the court; it's about merging technology and creativity to design a seamless fan journey that extends from their living room to the stadium and back. This means looking beyond traditional broadcast and email to create interactive, personalized experiences that add real value.To help me discuss this topic, I'd like to welcome, Ben Lewis, VP of Marketing and Growth at Infobip.

In a world of infinite entertainment choices, how does a sports franchise earn a fan's loyalty when the game isn't being played?Agility requires meeting fans where they are, with the right message at the right moment, whether they're on their couch or in their seat. This means adapting communication strategies in real-time to create a conversation, not just a broadcast.Today, we're going to talk about how sports franchises are navigating an incredibly crowded calendar to build deeper relationships with their fans. It's no longer just about what happens on the field or the court; it's about merging technology and creativity to design a seamless fan journey that extends from their living room to the stadium and back. This means looking beyond traditional broadcast and email to create interactive, personalized experiences that add real value.To help me discuss this topic, I'd like to welcome, Ben Lewis, VP of Marketing and Growth at Infobip.

Have you ever felt like you're the only one worried about your relationship?Maybe you've suggested counseling, asked for deeper conversations, or tried to reconnect—but your partner doesn't seem interested. It can feel lonely, frustrating, and even hopeless.In this episode, we're joined by marriage expert Dr. Lee Baucom, creator of the Save the Marriage System, to discuss one of the most common questions couples face:What do you do when you want to save the relationship, but your partner doesn't?Dr. Baucom shares why many couples unintentionally "hit pause" on their relationship while focusing on careers, parenting, finances, and life's endless responsibilities—and why that pause can slowly create distance and disconnection over time.Together, we explore:Why relationships don't stay still—they either grow or drift apartThe hidden dangers of the "pause button marriage"The difference between fault and responsibilityWhy one partner often recognizes relationship problems before the otherThe "Chaser, Spacer, and Pacer" dynamic and how it impacts connectionWhy forcing connection often pushes a partner further awayHow to become more invitational instead of reactiveThe role of self-management during relationship stressCommon misunderstandings around stonewalling, gaslighting, and emotional distanceHow to know when it's time to keep trying—and when it's time to let goWe also share personal stories from our own marriage, including how overwhelm, resentment, and parenting stress challenged our relationship and what helped us find our way back to each other.Whether you're feeling disconnected, discouraged, or simply wondering if your relationship can recover, this conversation offers practical guidance, hope, and a reminder that meaningful change often starts with one person choosing a different path.About Dr. Lee BaucomDr. Lee Baucom is the creator of the Save the Marriage System and a nationally recognized expert in relationship resilience and marital recovery.

The Border Collie tops every "smartest dog" list on the internet. It learns commands in under five repetitions, obeys on the first try, and can learn the names of over a thousand objects. That is not an exaggeration. A Border Collie named Chaser did exactly that, under controlled scientific conditions, published in a peer-reviewed journal. The intelligence is real.What the headline leaves out is the other half of the sentence. That intelligence was built for a job. The Border Collie was forged in the hill country between Scotland and England to move sheep across open terrain all day, reading the flock, making split-second decisions without being told, running on a brain that was never designed to sit still. When you take that brain and put it in a home with no work, it does not turn off. It finds something else to do. That something is usually your furniture, your kids' heels, or the shadows on the wall.In this episode of The Dog Behind the Human, Coach Francis breaks down the full picture. The real history of the breed from Old Hemp in 1893 to the founding of the International Sheep Dog Society. What Stanley Coren's famous intelligence ranking actually measured, and what it missed. The genetic conditions every prospective owner needs to know before they commit. And the specific reason Border Collies flood rescues, not because they are bad dogs, but because someone saw "smartest dog in the world" and thought that meant easy. The dog is always right. We just have to learn to read it.

It's kind of astonishing, really, that kids ever learn words. Each one poses a little riddle. Does this sound string refer to a person? A category of things? Or maybe some other feature of the blooming, buzzing world? And yet word learning happens. In fact, we now know it begins earlier in infancy than we realized. And we now know, further, that dogs (or at least some dogs) understand words as well. So how does this happen? What do babies and dogs really know about words? And how might we go about figuring this all out? My guests today are Dr. Elika Bergelson and Dr. Claudia Fugazza. Elika is an Associate Professor in the Department of Psychology at Harvard University, where her lab studies how infants learn language. Claudia is a Researcher at Eötvös Loránd University in Hungary, where she and her collaborators study dogs who are especially gifted word learners.  In this conversation, Elika, Claudia, and I talk about the thorny question of what it means to understand a word—and whether there are different degrees or kinds of understanding. We consider the challenges posed by different types of words—by nouns, by names, by verbs, by function words, size terms, and more. We discuss why it is that some dogs are so good at learning words, and why infants of a certain age seem to get so much better at it. We talk about learning in different contexts and situations. And we circle the question of how different word learning really is in dogs and babies.  Alright friends, before we get to it, one tiny ask: If you've been enjoying Many Minds, you can help us grow by leaving a review or comment or a rating, or by sharing us with a friend or colleague. We would greatly appreciate the support! Without further ado, on to my interview with Claudia Fugazza and Elika Bergelson. Enjoy!   Notes 3:30 – A paper on infants' understanding of proper nouns like "Mommy." 6:00 – For our earlier audio essay on names across the animal kingdom, see here. 11:00 – For Dr. Bergelson's early study showing that 6-month-old infants already understand the meanings of some words, see here. 13:30 – For more on the "comprehension boost" in infants after age one, see Dr. Elika's paper here. 16:30 – For Dr. Fugazza and colleagues' first studies on gifted word-learning dogs, see here and here. 20:00 – See earlier studies on Rico and Chaser. 24:00 – For more on the qualitative changes that infants may undergo as they learn to learn words, see a paper by Dr. Bergelson and a colleague here. 30:00 – A study by Dr. Fugazza and colleagues comparing personality profiles and playfulness of gifted word learner dogs and typical dogs. 31:30 – A recent New York Times article consoling readers that having a "dumb" (i.e., non-gifted) dog is okay. 39:30 – A study by Dr. Fugazza and colleagues showing that dogs can extend labels of toys ("pull," "fetch") to new objects that are used in the same way. 43:00 – A study by Dr. Bergelson and a colleague on how broadly (or narrowly) infants' apply labels like "foot" or "juice." A study by Dr. Bergelson and colleagues looking at how familiarity affects infants' understanding of words. 52:00 – For an example of a study on the so-called noun bias in early word learning, see here. For work on the (lack of) a noun bias in Tseltal infants, see here.

The thing about art is that it's never finished. It's a fact that presents a fundamental challenge: you have to decide to let go. To accept imperfection. To move on or to live inside the maze of one project your entire life.Fog Chaser's song a month project addresses this challenge directly. His commitment to deadlines and accountability to himself resulted in four, 12-song volumes completed in succession over the past four years.Now, with thousands of subscribers waiting for Volume 5 he faces another form of the same question. Does he repeat the cycle expected by his audience or change directions?We make music wanting it to be heard, but what do we do once we're heard? Fog Chaser acknowledges the privilege and gratitude for the audience and the pressure that accompanies attention. He reminds us that the attention arrived because he began by creating something deeply personal and meaningful to him.The point is to create and to gift and then repeat. Because the work is never done.ProducerHead is a publication for independent music producers.

Witnessing the Northern Lights is one of the most awe-inspiring experiences on the planet, and in today's interview episode we're going to hear what it feels like to stand beneath them - a cascade of color raining down from the sky all around you. In Norse mythology the Aurora were the armour of the Valkyries. The Inuit saw spirits playing in the sky. The Sami hid indoors in fear. And science has its own story too, because what we are really witnessing is the energy of the sun itself, travelling 93 million miles across space, and exploding into color in our atmosphere. We may now be able to explain them scientifically, but their effect on us is unchanged. This is a story about the science of solar winds and magnetic fields, the mythology of ancient cultures who saw gods and fire in the sky, and the art of chasing something wild, unpredictable and utterly mesmerizing. Taking us deeper into that experience is Tom Kerss, one of the world's leading Aurora experts. Tom's passion for the Aurora is infectious, his knowledge extraordinary, and his way of describing what you see in that sky inspiring and poetic.FIND OUT MOREProduced in collaboration with Lonely Planet: lonelyplanet.com Tom Kerss is one of the world's leading Aurora experts and the onboard Aurora guide for expedition cruise company Hurtigruten.

He insists he's not a journalist, but he's not quite a celebrity himself, either.
