Mike Ferguson in the Morning 11-21-24 (7:05am) Darrell Jones from the Herzog Foundation talks about Trump's nomination of Linda McMahon as Secretary of Education and we also discuss the three illegal teachers' strikes in Massachusetts which are forcing over 10,000 students out of school.  From the Herzog Foundation: President-elect Donald Trump has nominated business executive and former Cabinet member Linda McMahon for Secretary of Education. In his press statement, Trump described McMahon, who is well-known for founding and leading the World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE), Inc. with her husband Vince McMahon, as a “fierce advocate for Parents' Rights.” “Linda will fight tirelessly to expand ‘Choice' in every State in America, and empower parents to make the best Education decisions for their families,” Trump wrote. “Linda will use her decades of Leadership experience, and a deep understanding of both Education and Business, to empower the next Generation of American Students and Workers, and make America Number One in Education in the World.” Story here: https://readlion.com/trump-names-former-cabinet-member-linda-mcmahon-as-next-secretary-of-education/   Meanwhile, illegal teachers' union strikes in Massachusetts are nearing their third week, amassing thousands in fines. Three Massachusetts teachers' unions are continuing their illegal strike, forcing 10,000 students out of school. The Beverly Teachers Association (BTA), the Union of Gloucester Educators (UCE), and the Marblehead Education Association (MEA) are on strike in their respective school districts, even though public union walkouts are outlawed in Massachusetts. The districts are in the Greater Boston area. Gloucester school board chair Kathleen Clancy said they'd offer the union “the largest salary increases ever” in the district's history but needed to make sure the city “does not overstrain its finances or be forced to make service and personnel cuts.” Beverly leadership also made generous offers to increase teacher salaries by nearly 30% and paraprofessional wages by nearly 45%. But the unions still aren't satisfied, even though they're running up against legal ramifications. A judge told the MEA to end their strike by Nov. 14 or else face a $50,000 fine, with an additional $10,000 for every day the strike continues. BTA and UCE are compounding similar fines, though their penalties started on Nov. 12. NBC10 reported the BTA is scheduled to appear in court next Monday.

And employees at Essentia Health were offended. Why? Because it was Chick-fil-A, and some of them just couldn't handle it. BTW, the hospital provides cross-sex hormones and more to minors. According to the Stop The Harm database, Essentia has performed at least five sex-change operations on minors.

In the latest edition of Omni Talk's Retail Fast Five sponsored by the A&M Consumer and Retail Group, Avalara, Mirakl, Ownit AI and Ocampo Capital Chris Walton, Anne Mezzenga, and guest hosts from the Alvarez & Marsal Consumer and Retail Group Lakshman Lakshmanan and Chris Creyts discuss: Chick-fil-A is set to launch its own entertainment app on November 18th, featuring original animated shows, scripted podcasts, games, recipes, and cooking tutorials aimed at families. The hosts discuss the implications of this move, exploring whether Chick-fil-A can successfully engage the next generation of consumers through digital content. While some express enthusiasm for the brand's innovative approach, others raise concerns about competing in a crowded digital landscape against platforms like TikTok and YouTube. The conversation delves into the potential benefits of increased customer engagement and restaurant traffic, highlighting how this strategy might enhance the brand's connection with younger audiences. Ultimately, the hosts debate the merits of this initiative and whether it could position Chick-fil-A ahead of its competitors in a rapidly evolving retail environment. Chick-fil-A is set to launch its own family-friendly entertainment app, a significant pivot for the fast-food giant that is traditionally known for its chicken sandwiches rather than content creation. The new app, scheduled for release on November 18th, will feature original animated shows, scripted podcasts, games, recipes, and ebooks, all tailored for families. Key highlights of this initiative include the debut of the animated series "Legends of Evergreen Hills," which follows the adventures of protagonist Sam in a fantasy realm, as well as a scripted podcast titled "Hidden Island," centered around a family marooned on a deserted island. This move is seen as a strategy to adapt to changing consumer behavior, particularly as families increasingly seek entertainment options that can be accessed during dining experiences or at home. The discussion among the podcast hosts delves into the implications of this venture, questioning whether Chick-fil-A can effectively engage its audience in a highly competitive digital landscape dominated by platforms like TikTok and YouTube. A critical aspect of the conversation examines the potential impact of the app on customer engagement. The hosts speculate that by integrating entertainment into the dining experience, Chick-fil-A could enhance customer retention and increase the time families spend in their restaurants. This strategy is particularly relevant as many fast-food chains are moving away from play areas and traditional family dining experiences. The hosts draw parallels with Procter & Gamble's historical foray into branded content, pondering whether Chick-fil-A can emulate this success by connecting with younger generations through digital media. The podcast suggests that while the concept is intriguing, its success will largely depend on the execution and the ability to create compelling content that resonates with the target audience without feeling overly commercial. Takeaways: Chick Fil A is launching an entertainment app focused on family-friendly programming and content. The app will feature original animated shows, podcasts, games, and cooking tutorials for kids. Experts debate whether Chick Fil A can successfully compete against existing entertainment platforms like TikTok. The initiative reflects a shift in family dining experiences, moving to digital engagement. There are concerns about the heavy investment required to produce content for the new app. Some believe Chick Fil A should integrate this content into their existing app instead.

Shoot us a Text.It's a terrific Tuesday morning, and we have guest host Amit Chandarana, newly announced CEO of Curbee! We'll be discussing how auto dealers are integrating AI into their operations (or how they aren't), the refreshed Mustang Mach-E and Chick-Fil-A's new streaming network.Show Notes with links:Auto dealerships are embracing AI with hopes of transforming operations, but the technology's initial impact has been hit-or-miss. While there are real gains, the promises of instant transformation haven't fully delivered.AI has successfully streamlined back-office tasks and improved online customer interactions.Generative AI tools like ChatGPT help with service scheduling and customer emails, but chatbots have struggled.In 2023, pranksters hijacked dealership chatbots with absurd requests, forcing some to shut them down.Dealers remain hopeful, but many are cautious about AI's potential with some like Jason Bickford of Bickford Ford seeing AI as a valuable tool that will improve over time. "It's a really strong tool of support and helps you to do your job faster and better, and be more thoughtful with it."Steve Greenfield of Automotive Ventures said, "We've only just scratched the surface, and the fear is we may have dealers ... that are already getting disillusioned with the overpromise and under delivery of what AI can do for them. They may already be getting numb around entertaining any vendor that is trying to sell them AI-enabled features."Ford is refreshing its popular Mustang Mach-E for 2025 by actually making it look like a Mustang. It features key upgrades in both tech and design, all while slashing the price to stay competitive in the EV market.The new starting price is $36,495, undercutting Tesla's Model Y by nearly $8,000.The 2025 Mach-E adds a standard heat pump, improving winter performance and charging efficiency.Exterior upgrades include a Sport Appearance Package with design cues from the GT model and Brembo brake calipers, while inside has sportier accents like red stitching, sport pedals, and ventilated front seats.Ford's updated BlueCruise 1.5 now features automatic lane change, available via subscription.Chick-fil-A is officially branching out into the entertainment space with a new app launching November 18, aimed at keeping families engaged with original content, games, and more.The app will offer podcasts, games, recipes, and animated shows to entertain families.It's part of a strategy to connect with customers outside the restaurant, especially in the drive-thru or at home.Family-friendly content will center around themes like friendship, problem-solving, and generosity.“We want it to be an extension of our in-restaurant hospitality and generosity,” said Khalilah Cooper, VP of brand strategy.Hosts: Paul J Daly and Kyle MountsierGet the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/ Read our most recent email at: https://www.asotu.com/media/push-back-email

348: What happens when leaders stop asking questions? In this episode of Lead in 30, you'll discover how a lack of curiosity can impede collaboration, shrink networks, and stifle innovation. Drawing from my experiences with senior executive teams, I'll share stories and observations that illustrate the remarkable impact of curiosity on both personal and organizational growth.Listen to the tales of two striking in-flight encounters—an adrenaline-pumped base jumper and a focused Chick-fil-A franchise owner—that reveal the broader issue of a "kiss the ring" mentality. Despite their fascinating lives and careers, these individuals showed little interest in engaging deeply with others. These experiences underscore the critical importance of curiosity in leadership.

It's Thursday, August 29th, A.D. 2024. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 125 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark Ukraine bans religious groups with ties to Russia Last Saturday, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky  signed a bill into law that bans religious groups with ties to Russia. The legislation targets the Ukrainian Orthodox Church which has historical ties to Russia. Ukraine has prosecuted over 100 of its leaders. Religion News notes, “Anyone concerned with freedom of conscience and belief can find legitimate reasons to condemn criminal charges over opinions expressed on social media or from the pulpit, which has been the case of many Ukrainian Orthodox Church clerics jailed since the invasion.” Australia becomes hostile to religious freedom Faith groups in Australia have been calling for more protections for religious freedom. They warn that people are facing increased discrimination for their religious beliefs. A proposed Religious Discrimination Act would have protected religious freedom. However, the government announced it is scrapping the measure. It is even considering removing religious freedom protections in the current Sex Discrimination Act. Monica Doumit with the Catholic Archdiocese of Sydney said, “It is disappointing that there remains very little protection against discrimination on the basis of religious belief or activity.”  New York censors abortion pill reversal information In the United States, New York has been trying to silence pro-life groups, like Heartbeat International, from sharing information about abortion pill reversals. In response, Alliance Defending Freedom is supporting pro-life groups against the state.  A federal court ruled the pro-life groups can keep sharing life-saving information as the case proceeds. The ruling noted, “The First Amendment protects Plaintiffs' right to speak freely about [abortion pill reversal] protocol and, more specifically, to say that it is safe and effective for a pregnant woman to use in consultation with her doctor.” Proverbs 24:11 says, “Deliver those who are drawn toward death, and hold back those stumbling to the slaughter.” U.S. fertility rate drops again The latest data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention found that the U.S. fertility rate continues to drop. The fertility rate fell 3% last year to 55 births per 1,000 women aged 15 to 44. That amounted to 3.6 million babies who were birthed last year, down 68,000 compared to 2022. The fertility rate has been falling for decades, especially since the 2008 Great Recession. The rate increased slightly in 2021 during the COVID-19 pandemic, but has continued to fall since then.  Male voters prefer Trump; Female voters prefer Harris The New York Times released polling data from battleground states this month. The poll noted a gender gap in political preference, especially among young people. Men tended to support former President Donald Trump, while women tended to support Vice President Kamala Harris.  Among people aged 18 to 29, women favored Kamala by 38 percentage points, and men favored Trump by 13 points. That's a 51-point gender gap, up from a 39-point gap when President Joe Biden was still in the race for the White House.  Tulsi Gabbard: Kamala Harris is “afraid to debate Donald Trump” Former Democratic presidential candidate Tulsi Gabbard, who just endorsed Trump for president on Monday night, talked to David Webb on the Sirius XM Patriot channel Tuesday to explain why she thinks Vice President Kamala Harris is “afraid” to debate Trump. Listen. GABBARD: “Donald Trump's campaign and Kamala Harris's campaign agreed to this debate on September 10 to the same rules that applied during the Trump-Biden debate on CNN that we already saw. “Now all of a sudden, we're just two weeks out this debate that they already agreed to, and Kamala Harris is trying to change the rules. She wants it to be a debate where they allow the mics to be live the entire time, where she can bring her notes in to the debate with her, and where they will be seated for the entire debate. “President Trump's position has been pretty clear. Where he says, hey, look, we already agreed to the terms of this debate. We should stick with those terms, which is the same rules that he debated Joe Biden under. The fact that Kamala Harris is trying to change the rules here now, just days out from when this debate is supposed to occur, I think it, to me, it says that she's afraid. She's afraid to debate Donald Trump. Her wanting to bring notes into this debate reinforces what we already know to be true, which is she absolutely struggles if she is not using a script, if she is not using a teleprompter. “If she can't debate Donald Trump on the issues, on her record and his record, frankly, without notes in front of her and without sitting down, she's got much bigger problems!” Florida's law banning transgender procedures for minors given green light The 11th Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that a Florida law can go into effect that bans transgender procedures. The law prohibits doctors from offering puberty blockers and body-mutilating surgeries to minors.  Republican Governor Ron DeSantis commented previously on the case, He said, “These procedures do permanent, life-altering damage to children, and history will look back on this fad in horror.” At least 26 states have passed laws to protect children from transgender procedures.  Chick-fil-A adds entertainment to menu Chick-fil-A has been America's favorite fast food restaurant for nearly a decade.  Now, the company is adding entertainment to the menu as it prepares to launch its own streaming service. The entertainment platform would focus on family-friendly content. Chick-fil-A's CEO Dan Cathy has previously spent millions of dollars transforming over 700 acres of farmland in Georgia. It's now home to the largest movie studio outside of Burbank, California.  100-year-long prayer chain launched hundreds of missionaries And finally, this week is the anniversary of when a Christian community in Herrnhut, Germany began a round-the-clock “prayer chain.” The community started after Count Nikolaus Ludwig von Zinzendorf opened his estate to Protestant refugees. On August 27, 1727, dozens in the community committed to pray in turns every hour of every day. The prayer chain reportedly lasted over one hundred years. The Moravian community went on to send hundreds of missionaries around the world, becoming the spearhead of Protestant missions.  Colossians 4:2 says, “Continue earnestly in prayer, being vigilant in it with thanksgiving.” Close And that's The Worldview on this Thursday, August 29th, in the year of our Lord 2024. Subscribe by Amazon Music or by iTunes or email to our unique Christian newscast at www.TheWorldview.com.
