Podcast appearances and mentions of Chris Field

Private markets are becoming more accessible to non-institutional investors, as the rise in semi-liquid vehicles this year demonstrates. At the same time, the industry is facing certain potential headwinds or tailwinds, depending on which region you're based in, as law firm Dechert's 2025 Global Private Equity Outlook survey has found. In this episode, partners Sabina Comis and Chris Field sit down with Private Equity International senior editor Adam Le to discuss the results of the law firm's latest survey, which examines these issues and more. In this podcast, Comis and Field also discuss: The expected impact of the US election on PE portfolios Regulatory scrutiny Fee structuring, including on co-investments Secondaries transaction activity and deal volume For more private markets insights, check out privateequityinternational.com

A series of powerful hurricanes have affected millions of people in the United States in recent weeks. 最近几周，一系列强大的飓风影响了美国数百万人。 Some people are wondering if scientists could control extreme weather events. However, experts say hurricanes are far too powerful for humans to control. 有些人想知道科学家是否可以控制极端天气事件。然而，专家表示，飓风的威力太强大，人类无法控制。 Climate change is leading to increasingly powerful storms. This has led to greater attention on the possibilities of geoengineering. 气候变化正在导致越来越强大的风暴。这引起了人们对地球工程可能性的更多关注。 Geoengineering involves futuristic ideas for reversing or lessening climate change. But many scientists have serious concerns about unwanted results.地球工程涉及扭转或减轻气候变化的未来主义想法。但许多科学家对意外结果深表担忧。 Hurricanes are an example of the uncontrollable, disordered power of Earth's weather. Experts say there is no clear evidence from research to show humans might be able to control such strong storms. 飓风是地球天气无法控制、无序的力量的一个例子。专家表示，研究中没有明确的证据表明人类可能能够控制如此强烈的风暴。 Kristen Corbosiero is a professor of atmospheric and environmental sciences at the University at Albany. Corbosiero is a weather expert, or meteorologist. She said: "If meteorologists could stop hurricanes, we would stop hurricanes. If we could control the weather, we would not want the kind of death and destruction that's happened." 克里斯汀·科博西罗 (Kristen Corbosiero) 是奥尔巴尼大学大气与环境科学教授。Corbosiero 是一位天气专家或气象学家。她说：“如果气象学家能够阻止飓风，我们也会阻止飓风。如果我们能够控制天气，我们就不会想要发生这样的死亡和破坏。”National Hurricane Center tropical analysis chief Chris Landsea said that a fully developed hurricane releases heat energy that is the equal to a 10-megaton nuclear bomb every 20 minutes. That is more than all the energy used at a given time by human beings. 国家飓风中心热带分析负责人克里斯·兰德西表示，完全发展的飓风每20分钟释放的热能相当于10兆吨级核弹。这超过了人类在特定时间内使用的所有能量。 Chris Field is director of the Stanford Woods Institute for the Environment in California. He said scientists are learning of the many ways that climate change is making hurricanes more powerful and destructive. Warmer oceans add energy and more water to the warming atmosphere. That water becomes strong rainfall. 克里斯·菲尔德（Chris Field）是加州斯坦福伍兹环境研究所所长。他说，科学家们正在了解气候变化使飓风变得更加强大和更具破坏性的多种方式。温暖的海洋为变暖的大气增添了能量和更多的水。那水变成强降雨。 Colorado State University hurricane researcher Phil Klotzbac said the amount of energy a hurricane generates is much more than humans have the power to control. But people have still made attempts to control the storms. 科罗拉多州立大学飓风研究员菲尔·克洛茨巴克表示，飓风产生的能量远远超出了人类控制的能力。但人们仍然在努力控制风暴。Jim Fleming is a professor at Colby College in Maine. He has studied historical efforts to control the weather. He said humans do not even come close to having the practical technology to successfully control the weather. 吉姆·弗莱明是缅因州科尔比学院的教授。他研究了历史上控制天气的努力。他说，人类甚至还没有接近拥有成功控制天气的实用技术。 Fleming described one attempt in 1947. The General Electric company partnered with the U.S. military to drop dry ice from Air Force planes into the path of a hurricane to try to weaken it. It did not work. 弗莱明描述了 1947 年的一次尝试。通用电气公司与美国军方合作，从空军飞机上将干冰投放到飓风路径上，试图削弱飓风。它不起作用。 Some attempts or ideas could even make the storms worse or cause greater harm. One especially dangerous idea was to use a nuclear bomb, which would cause radiation and not be strong enough to change the storm, Kristen Corbosiero said. 一些尝试或想法甚至可能使风暴变得更糟或造成更大的伤害。克里斯汀·科博西罗说，一个特别危险的想法是使用核弹，它会产生辐射，但强度不足以改变风暴。Bringing cooling icebergs or adding chemicals to cause rain also are ideas that do not work, scientists say. 科学家表示，让冰山冷却或添加化学物质来降雨也是行不通的。Modern geoengineers would operate differently. Today's geoengineers are thinking about how to reverse the damage humans have already caused. 现代地球工程师的运作方式会有所不同。今天的地球工程师正在考虑如何扭转人类已经造成的损害。 Scientists in the field say one of the most promising ideas they see based on computer models is solar geoengineering. The method would involve lifting small particles into the upper atmosphere to return some of the sunlight back into space, cooling the planet a little. Still, supporters of the idea know that it comes with risks. 该领域的科学家表示，他们根据计算机模型看到的最有前途的想法之一是太阳能地球工程。该方法涉及将小颗粒提升到高层大气中，将部分阳光返回太空，从而稍微冷却地球。尽管如此，这个想法的支持者知道它伴随着风险。 Two years ago, the American Geophysical Union (AGU) announced it was forming an ethics agreement for climate intervention. The AGU is the largest society of scientists who study climate issues. 两年前，美国地球物理联盟（AGU）宣布正在制定一项气候干预道德协议。AGU 是研究气候问题的最大的科学家协会。

Today, we're bringing you a best-of from our archive of over 250 episodes. We're all aware that the consequences of climate change range from rising sea levels, to drought, wildfires, economic disruption and the displacement of populations. We're seeing and living through many of these effects, but is there hope for managing additional risk? A couple years ago we sat down with environmental scientist Chris Field to ask this question. He shared that it's still possible to pave the way to a sustainable future. Take another listen to this episode to hear more about how he thinks we can do this together.Have a question for Russ?

Warning authentic conversation follows. Be prepared to talk to your kids about sex if they are listening. -- Meaning Making is for those who have laughed and cried and loved and lost and are now staring down the decades that remain, wondering how to ensure they don't miss out on the exquisite chaos of the here and now. No one is broken, everyone is worthy of being known, and we're all a collection of complex, beautiful messes. These are the core truths that drive this gritty and authentic book forward. It's about becoming fully human, one moment at a time—no matter what age you are. This is not memoir or self-help. Chris acknowledges he doesn't have all the answers (or many at all). He doesn't offer five-step action plans, earth-shattering advice, or a promise to change your life. Instead, he shares seemingly ordinary anecdotes, mundane moments that become formative life lessons—but only if we choose to make meaning from them. Vulnerable, heartfelt, and relatable, Meaning Making is about Chris's commitment to embracing the second half of life—and inviting you to do the same. Chris Field is an award-winning author and two-time TEDx speaker. He is the founder of Mercy Project, an innovative nonprofit that combats child trafficking in Ghana's fishing industry. Mercy Project has rescued, rehabilitated, and reintegrated nearly three hundred formerly enslaved children back into their families. Chris has broken multiple Guinness world records, run dozens of marathons, and taught hundreds of business students at Texas A&M University. His previous books include Disrupting for Good and A Billion Hours of Good. He lives in College Station, Texas, with his wife, Stacey, and their four children. While all of this sounds really important and impressive (which he understands is the point of this section), he's also just a regular guy who loses his temper, forgets his wallet, messes up a lot, and has a whole host of shortcomings equally as unimpressive as the two paragraphs above. In other words, he's a beggar on a journey for bread, just like everyone else in the world.

With a deal drought across the global private equity industry, we talk to Chris Field of global law firm Dechert about what's next for M&A and buyout deal flow for 2024. We discuss valuations and defensive deal structures as vendors and buyers find ways to come together. Top quote: "I have never worked on an earn-out, ever, that has not resulted in some form of dispute.'" In this Fund Shack podcast with Ross Butler, Chris reveals what it takes to make it as a top private equity lawyer. 

"Good afternoon, Reviewer 2 listeners. Some of us at the Healthy Planet Action Coalition (www.healthyplanetaction.org) have noticed that a few months ago Reviewer 2 experienced a security breach orchestrated by archrival Challenging Climate. Now normally we would refrain from taking advantage of poor Reviewer 2, but we sensed an opportunity that we couldn't resist and decided to jump into the breach with this discussion about the recent report of the Climate Overshoot Commission (COC) between Chris Field, Stanford Professor and advisor to the COC, and Mike MacCracken, HPAC Steering Circle member and former Executive Director of the Office of the US Global Change Research Program. The Climate Overshoot Commission report "Reducing the Risks of Climate Overshoot" was released on September 14: https://www.overshootcommission.org/_files/ugd/0c3b70_bab3b3c1cd394745b387a594c9a68e2b.pdf. While the COC did not solicit public input, it did hold a series of meetings to learn and discuss the full range of questions facing the international community in dealing with the risk of climate overshoot. Their 4-part high-level recommendations were summarized in the acronym CARE, for Cut (emissions), Adapt, Remove (CO2), and Explore (SRM). Specifically, its recommendation on climate intervention advocated expanding research while placing "a moratorium on the deployment of solar radiation modification and large-scale outdoor experiments that would carry risk of significant trans-boundary harm. "

How has the private equity industry evolved this year amid a sustained rising interest rate and inflationary environment, fierce competition for LP capital and the increasing democratisation of the asset class? Dechert partner Chris Field sits down with Private Equity International senior editor Adam Le to discuss the results of the law firm's 2024 Global Private Equity Outlook, which examines this very question.

Many clients experience a huge gap between the services they expect and the services provided by their advisors. This difference is evident in tax planning. In fact, 92% of clients expect tax planning advice, but only 25% get it! (Source: Spectrem Group) In this episode,...

The U.S. Corporate Transparency Act (CTA) and its new reporting regime take effect on January 1, 2024. In this episode of Committed Capital Sidecar, private equity partners Sarah Kupferman and Greg Schernecke provide an update on its implementation. The CTA's rules will impact corporations, LLCs, partnerships and other entities and vehicles that exist on January 1, 2024, or are created or registered to do business thereafter in the U.S.  The regime requires applicable reporting companies to report certain beneficial ownership information to FinCEN.  London private equity partner Chris Field joins the conversation to discuss the UK and EU's respective pre-existing beneficial ownership reporting regimes and what can be gleaned from looking at these analogs to the CTA.

Welcome to another episode of Day Drinking on Delmarva! In this episode, our hosts, Tony Russo and Todd DeHart, share their experiences and insights while enjoying some bourbon. They start by discussing a canceled shoot due to bad weather, but Tony is surprisingly okay with it. Then, they dive into the topic of a powerful tool called Cast Magic that Tony has recently discovered. Tony finds Cast Magic impressive, as it provides timestamps and creative titles for interesting parts of their podcast, making editing much easier. Tony shares his thoughts on their podcast being somewhat of a vanity project and his struggles with promoting it. However, he is amazed by the capabilities of Cast Magic in summarizing and extracting key information from their podcast, which he believes can help attract more listeners.In their quest to encourage more people to write, create, and enjoy art, Tony and Todd express their disinterest in voting on budgets or being on committees. They mention their Substack account, where they publish news and sell Tony's book, "Being Burly." While some content requires a minimum payment of $6 per month, they also provide free content to engage with a broader audience. Tony emphasizes the importance of enjoying the present moment, regardless of the time of year, although he admits struggling with this concept and sometimes waking up with negative thoughts. He encourages the audience to engage with them on social media and provide feedback on their newsletter, partially written by AI, where any mistakes are promptly fixed, except for instances where they may have said something inappropriate. Moving on, they discuss the Maryland Writers Association's annual conference in October and encourage people to attend. They also mention the "3rd Fridays" art walks that take place in various towns, including Salisbury, Berlin, Crisfield, and Cambridge, and Tony declares his plan to participate in as many third Friday events as possible. Touching on a serious topic, Tony reflects on the perception of white people being racist and shares personal experiences of racism directed towards white individuals. He discusses the challenges of distancing oneself from racist views expressed by others and even mentions how wearing masks during the mask controversy could temporarily shield one from racist comments. Tony expresses concern about computer algorithms categorizing individuals as racist and its potential impact on the content they see. He also shares his frustration with algorithms making assumptions about his preferences based on his identity, especially regarding the lack of diversity in recommended content. Tony contemplates sending a note to Amazon to actively seek movies with black actors, in an effort to broaden his entertainment choices. As the president of the local chapter of the Maryland Writers Association, Tony talks about its role as a state-sponsored arts project and his involvement in preventing negative impacts caused by COVID-19. He briefly mentions the association's monthly meetings, which discuss budgets and other writing-related topics, but admits not paying close attention to those discussions. The hosts engage in a lively debate on whether July 4th is considered the beginning or middle of summer. Tony shares his personal perspective, defining summer as the period between Memorial Day and Labor Day, taking into account the school schedules of high school and college students. He playfully concludes that the love of summer solely belongs to the month of July. Throughout the episode, Tony emphasizes the importance of taking time to acknowledge and enjoy the present moment. He shares his personal experiences, such as playing golf with friends during the summer, and encourages listeners to do the same. In discussing their work with various clients, Tony mentions his control over specific channels, including the search page and the "for you" page. He highlights the personalized algorithm that reflects his interests and preferences. Tony mentions his new restaurant, Starboard Claw, and expresses frustration with irrelevant content appearing when searching for it, but he intends to train the algorithm to better suit his needs. To wrap up the episode, Tony reveals that he hosts a podcast called Funeral Service Insider for funeral directors and recently recorded an episode on Green Burial, a popular topic. He shares his excitement about a transcription tool they discovered that provides 80% accurate transcriptions, assisting with SEO and generating text for their podcast episodes. Furthermore, Tony is thrilled that the tool creates introductions, reel scripts, social media posts, and tweet threads for different platforms, ultimately streamlining their content creation process. Be sure to tune in and enjoy this episode of Day Drinking on Delmarva, where Tony and Todd cover a wide range of engaging topics while sharing their love for bourbon and the present moment. Cheers!TRANSCRIPTThis week though is the Maryland Writers Association because I am a member not only that, I am the president of the local know I had my first meeting this week. And if you are a member of the Maryland Writers Association, I apologize in advance because I'm going to talk a little Maryland Writers Association s**t because I think it's adorable. And I mean this all with love in my heart, but have you ever been to so I'm on the state board. So the Maryland Writers Association is a state sponsored arts project and I'm a member of that esteemed board. And they get together once a month and they talk about writing stuff. I've got to be honest, I didn't pay real close attention. They talk about budgets and things like that. And the reason that I wanted to become president of the local board is that nobody else was and I helped found it and I didn't want to see it. Got it got you know, kind of run over a little bit by COVID. And Stephanie has been out of her mind busy and she was the president for like six years. And it is a kind of thing that'll wear you down. One of the things that wears you down is this monthly meeting where it's about I've got to admit I have no idea how long it was either. It was anywhere between it was maybe an hour, maybe 2 hours.You were writing the whole time, weren't you?Well, I don't want to give away too much, but I was in one of those conditions where I'm like how much time has passed, man? Like four years. So I'm not sure how long the meeting is. It could be an hour, could be two, could be ten. But people don't get into writing to be on boards. It's not pleasant. And I see why people do it. I don't see how anyone enjoys it. I use all my spare time to do more writing. It's this thing that always bothered me about Ocean Pines. You work your whole life in upper middle management in a Fortune 1000 company and you bust your ass and you don't know your kids names and your grandchildren don't talk to you. And then you retire to Ocean Pines and you get on their board of directors and like really?Yeah, really.I don't know. It's not my scene. I guess what I'm getting at, I'm not a really good representative.But you are.You can't put me on a board. I mean you can put me on a board, but you can't like I'll go to the thing. I'm not going to participate, but I will make an announcement from the board. There's a Maryland Writers Association has an annual conference in October and they want people to go. So you should go to Mwa.org or whatever and find out about Ever. What I do want to talk about are third Fridays before I use up all my commercial time. Salisbury has third Friday events, which are art walks. Lots of places have them. We're going to try to do as many as possible. So when there's something in Berlin, if they're letting art things come for free, we'll do that. There was one in Chris Field, as I understand it, one in Cambridge, my second favorite town on the Eastern Shore. And all those places have them. We're going to do them all. One of the things we're going to do, though, and I want to entice you, this is coming out on it would be a miracle if it was out on Friday the 21st. I've got to be honest. So let's say this comes out Monday, which is July 24. On my calendar, there's a third Friday every month. So please put August 18 in your schedule, because what we're doing is something called the Exquisite Corpse. And as I explained to Todd, we're going to start off with one sentence and then we're going to let someone read that sentence and write the next sentence, and then we're going to cover it up and cover it up so everyone can write a sentence. Everyone who wants to can write a sentence based on the previous sentence, and.Todd DeHart [00:04:39]:We'Ll see what kind and nothing more.Tony Russo [00:04:41]:And nothing more, right. And so we'll see what kind of it's like a weird kind of telephone, almost, right, where you have enough information, you have information to continue, but you don't know if you're making any sense.Todd DeHart [00:04:56]:I feel like this is like an improv kind of it is.Tony Russo [00:05:02]:And that's my promise as the new MWA lorison Shore. By the way, that's M-W-A-L-E-S. So it's like MW ales or M wales, but I like MW ales instead. What I want to do is I want to get more people to write, more people to make stuff, more people to enjoy it. I don't want to get people to vote on budgets. I don't want to get people to be on committees, which is what makes me a mediocre president, but hopefully an effective one where we get more people who are writing, making stuff. We're going to bring back one true thing for sure, hopefully in the winter, once we get everything else together. So please stay tuned to that and you can follow everything that I do on my substac by substack is bytonyruusso substack.com and all of my news and stuff is on there. You can buy my to. I meant to tell Todd. Oh, I think I did. I've started my Burly book is now out, and every Friday I publish another section of a book that didn't get published called Being Burly. And as I'm going back through it. I've said it before and I've said it again. It's pretty good. So it's $6 a month is the minimum to have access to all that. Although there's plenty of free stuff. I write one free thing and one paid thing each week. Sometimes I write two paid things, but I write at least one free thing every week, and it's fun to read. And that's the end of my commercial. You talk now while I get a drink? Yeah.Todd DeHart [00:06:46]:What are you drinking today?Tony Russo [00:06:49]:I am drinking water. The people I'm sorry, they don't know this, but you do, Todd. We moved it back to 04:00. We usually record at three. Today we moved it back to four. I started writing at two, and Tod texted me at, like, 410 to say, are we still doing this or what? I didn't get a drink. I have the last little bit of some soda water, and I have about half a thing of regular water, half a container of regular water, and then a little bit of coffee left from this morning. So I have a nice collection of cups here on the side of my desk, but nothing alcoholic. I saw you were drinking something alcoholic and brown.Todd DeHart [00:07:28]:I am drinking a little bit of bourbon, and because we got pushed back a little bit, we had a shoot that actually ended up getting canceled because of the weather, which is fine, because I, too, was kind of in the zone and had sent you an email at 330. And then I looked up and it was 410. Are we still doing this? But no, it's been fun. Bourbon is a way of life for me. The one cool thing that we've been doing is a tool that you actually introduced to me last week on Wednesday. I record the Dewey Beach podcast on Thursday, and I ended up playing with this tool called Cast Magic, and it was pretty robust. I mean, you sent probably an hour after we finished recording an email to me that said, this was generated by AI in whatever, under ten minutes. And it was a synopsis of the show. It was a great newsletter and fantastic. So it was a neat tool, especially for somebody who does podcasts like we do, because I am always in the frame of mind. Well, I'm always doing so many other projects. And truthfully, the podcast, I some feel like it is a vanity project, right? In some respects. So I want to promote it. We talk about this all the time is that we don't really do a good job of pushing our own show that we've been doing for a know recording as long as Joe Rogan has, with a fraction of percent of the success. But this was a really neat tool. Cast Magic is I was able to go into my Dewey podcast, and because it gives you timestamps of interesting parts in my editing, I can go right to that and be like, oh, boom, there it is. They give you creative titles. They give you a lot more than just the breakdown or newsletter. I was really kind of impressed in the volume of stuff that they were able to just pull out and then slice and dice. Some of it's repetitive, but it's good. It's probably the best bit that gets what is happening in the podcast that I've seen so far.Tony Russo [00:10:22]:Absolutely. I started using it at work. I do a podcast called Funeral Service Insider, the podcast, and if you're into, like, death stuff, you should listen to it. It's mostly for funeral directors, so some of it's inside baseball, but some of it is cool stuff to know. I just recorded one about Green Burial, which is a hot topic, but what I discovered, I can't remember. I would love to tell you who I got it from, but I can't. I heard about it on a podcast. And what this does is it does a transcript. So the transcript has got to be 80% accurate. It's just as good as one that you'd pay for, except that it's part of it. And one of the things that I liked about the transcript, which was really the first thing that drew to me, is for my podcast at work. And now, of course, for this podcast, there's SEO to be had if you have a lot of text about everything that we talk about just gets put onto text. So I like that. And then I like the summary. It will write an introduction. It will write a reels script. It will write a social media post for LinkedIn. It will write a tweet thread for Twitter, and now a thread thread for threads.Todd DeHart [00:11:44]:Yeah, I love it. To give you ten options for each of those platforms.Tony Russo [00:11:51]:Yes. And you can scroll through and get extra ones. The other thing and maybe we can start to do this next week, the other thing it gives you is discussion questions.Todd DeHart [00:12:00]:Yes.Tony Russo [00:12:02]:And the discussion questions I find wonderful. But last week it's funny to hear a computer critique you. And last week I felt a little critiqued by the computer because the computer didn't want to repeat what I said. Something like, Tony had some controversial thoughts about Andrew, and I'm like, wow, the computer is hedging. Maybe I did go off the rails a little bit. I don't want to self censor because I'm afraid of the computer, but it is something that when I saw that the computer was, like, afraid to kind of try and contextualize what I said, they're like, you know what? Listen to it if you want. I wouldn't. This guy's a maniac who wants to kill everyone.Todd DeHart [00:12:57]:Yeah. Soon, in the not too distant future, you'll actually be linked up to the computer that will be monitoring live. It'll give you a little shock, like a little zapper from the e collar to be like, no, pull it back in. Pull it back in.Tony Russo [00:13:14]:Well, I'm making that part of an essay. I don't think it'll be out this week. It'll probably be out next week on Substac bytonyruusso Substac.com about I don't care if people think I'm racist, but I do care if computers think I'm racist.Todd DeHart [00:13:34]:Interesting.Tony Russo [00:13:35]:And the main reason is because if people think I'm racist, there are probably other white people, and I don't care, as one of the, quote, curses, if there is a downside to being a white guy, it's that all the racists treat you like you're on their team because you're a white guy. And sometimes you have to be like, yeah, I don't really agree with that. Or sometimes you just have to say, oh, I'm late for something and leave. But people say awful, vile things to you as a white guy that, I swear to God they don't say to anybody else. Yeah. And so there's no point in me wearing a sign. I guess back when there was the mask controversy, that was convenient. You could wear a mask and no one would say anything racist to you. They're like, oh, you're a mask person. That means you're not a racist. I don't know why, but if the computer thinks you're a racist, it's going to change what it shows you. And I don't want to miss out on stuff because the computer thinks I'm a right. So while I was on vacation, I watched a movie. I watched, I think, two whole movies the entire week. One of them wasn't a good movie, but I want to talk about it. It was called Safe, and it stars Denzel Washington and Reynolds. Like, how bad could that movie be, right? It wasn't great.Todd DeHart [00:15:04]:It was was it would be Ryan Reynolds being Ryan Reynolds cast opposite an incredible actor in.Tony Russo [00:15:15]:It was it was a spy thriller. It was very Jason Bourney like, by minute two, you're like, okay, I see how this goes. But on Amazon, there were two promotional videos for Know. Amazon has the previews, right? They'll show you, like, the COVID all right? So if you look up Safe and I took pictures of it, I don't know if you can still do it today, but I challenge you to try. If you look up Safe, there's one with Denzel Washington on the COVID and then there's another one with Ryan Reynolds on the COVID Right. And to hopefully get more diverse suggestions from Amazon, I clicked on the Denzel Washington cover, and it said, this title is not available. But then I clicked on the Ryan Reynolds title and was subjected to two and a half hours of very predictable spy.Todd DeHart [00:16:25]:So title not available under Denzel and completely available.Tony Russo [00:16:34]:That's interesting.Todd DeHart [00:16:34]:I don't know.Tony Russo [00:16:36]:And I wonder if it's because last year when we went on vacation, the house we rented, we believe had been rented by a black family before. And the reason we believe that is because there's a black Netflix, like there's s**t that you will never see because you're a white person and what you watch. But they were still signed into their black Netflix unquote. And so all of the suggestions were movies that I'd never seen, television shows I had never seen, people that I'd never heard of. And my wife explained to me that this was normal and that everybody knew it but me and apparently you.Todd DeHart [00:17:17]:I didn't know that. Wouldn't it, though just be the previous family regardless of yes, it could have.Tony Russo [00:17:25]:Been a white family that only watched black entertainment. It's true. But my guess is whether the point is whatever they watched, they were getting suggestions that I had never even seen. There were movies on there that never come up in my spectrum. And that's when I started realizing that our choices, our online choices make us racist by accident. Because if we don't choose enough black things, then they stop showing us black things and then we won't get to see cool black things when they come out.Todd DeHart [00:18:04]:It is interesting. I'm going to interject, if you don't mind, handling several different channels for several different clients and then including my own. A number of the channels that I handle, I solely handle. So like the search page or the for you page kind of reflect the stuff that I get personally. So if you go to the back end of the Starboard Instagram handle and you look at and you do a search, there's going to be some marvel stuff in there. There's going to be some lacrosse highlights, right? The algorithm is tuned into me. What is interesting is so we had a couple of new restaurants open up and then it's like what the baseline is before me and or the business has established. And I don't know. We opened Starboard Claw and it is all a bunch of big boobed women holding fifth for some reason at the beach. And I'm like scroll. Scroll? All right, cocktail video. Let's look at that. Like seafood. Let's look at that. You have to train the algorithm a little bit, right?Tony Russo [00:19:29]:Because it knows who you are or it's got a good guess who you are. But who I am isn't what I want to be or who I am isn't who I want to be. I don't want to miss out on things just because of previous choices, which is of course how life works and why it can be disappointing, but that should be with people. But when it's with the algorithm, it's worth knowing. It's worth knowing. So you make other know. The movie wasn't any good, but at least I showed them that I'll click on a black face sometimes. You could show me more black faces. I'm not afraid. I just want to send them a note. I want to send Amazon a note and say, listen, yeah, I'll watch movies with black people in them. If you show them to me. But if you keep them hidden from me, then I won't. And then I'll just reaffirm how narrow minded I am when it comes to tune in, tune out entertainment. Right.Todd DeHart [00:20:31]:Well, I wonder if they need a category and not stuff you might like. It would be stuff if you're thinking about expanding your horizons or if you want to learn something about somebody that's not like you, that should be a whole category on Netflix, right?Tony Russo [00:20:51]:Yeah.Todd DeHart [00:20:53]:Stuff you might potentially hate. And this is why.Tony Russo [00:20:57]:Well, I guess they could turn it inside out. I don't know if you know about the Napoleon Dynamite complex and Napoleon Dynamite problem.Todd DeHart [00:21:07]:No.Tony Russo [00:21:08]:So Netflix has and I think they still have it a contest every now and again. The first one they had was for Napoleon Dynamite. And it was a million dollars to improve their who did the best improvements of their algorithm. And the problem that they had was Napoleon Dynamite became crazy famous on Netflix. And there was no rhyme or reason for who watched Dynamite. Like, it was people who watched The Notebook, people who only watched you know, it was like there was no napoleon Dynamite didn't fit anywhere in the algorithm.Todd DeHart [00:21:55]:Right.Tony Russo [00:21:56]:And they're like, well, how can we make the algorithm find more Napoleon Dynamites that everyone's going to love? And that's something that they've been doing for a long time. But I think that, as you said, maybe throw a couple in there that I'm going to hate. Like, you have to watch this. That's right. For 1495 a month, you get Netflix. For 1395 a month, you get Netflix. But they get to choose the first movie you watch of the week. And you can't watch any more movies.Todd DeHart [00:22:27]:Until you watch that.Tony Russo [00:22:28]:Until you watch that whole one.Todd DeHart [00:22:30]:It would be great. It would be like an amuse boost for your viewing pleasure. It's like, you need to watch this because we know you, and this is going to make you a better person and viewer.Tony Russo [00:22:47]:This is a hole in your instead of trying to make a pile of stuff that I like, fill the holes of my mean, I I'd be for really it's rare that I watch a movie because they're always bad. And as I was watching this stupid Denzel Washington movie, I'm like, man, now it thinks I'm a racist and I have to watch this bad movie because I don't turn movies off. Once I started, I'm committed.Todd DeHart [00:23:13]:Yeah, now they think you're a racist and like bad.Tony Russo [00:23:16]:I know. I know.Todd DeHart [00:23:18]:Let's give this racist jerk some more crap.Tony Russo [00:23:22]:All Chris Pine all the time. That's all I can see. Chris Pine movies. Oh, and that other guy, the jumping around guy from The Office that's playing Jack Ryan now. John Krasins.Todd DeHart [00:23:37]:Oh, yeah.Tony Russo [00:23:40]:Unlikely. White guys doing action movies. Go. So that's my thing on AI. You wanted to talk about July, and I want to let you okay.Todd DeHart [00:23:56]:So I feel like this comes up every time this year, and I always like the question to be, is July 4 the beginning or middle of summer? And a lot of people have different answers. I personally always fall in the middle because I'm looking at summer as being between Memorial Day and Labor Day. But a lot of high school kids are in school through the middle, at least of June, and a lot of college kids have to go back in the beginning of August. If you want to boil it down, the love of summer is solely the month of July. So that would make sense that July 4 is actually kind of the beginning, but it's also the middle because it's compressed so much. But it's always been something. And I don't know. It's kind of a silly question. And people have strong opinions either way. But what I realized is somebody it's kind of like take a step back and when you're sitting and it's freezing and you're daydreaming about the best time of year could be up for interpretation. But a lot of people think about summertime and vacation, schools out, all of that. And the importance is to take time in this moment right now, the middle of July, the middle of summer, and just acknowledge it and enjoy it. Be a little present if I can borrow from my yoga practice a little bit, right? I played golf yesterday, played golf at Glen Riddle. And I kind of despise the purpose of golf, but it is what it is, and I think the best explanation I heard, it's sport for white guys who hate water. Something about arrogance. But I enjoy being with my friends and I enjoy being outside, and it's the middle of the month. It's the middle of summer, the middle of the season, and we played Twilight because we're cheap and wanted to get a better rate, and it was fantastic. And I was super tired, and it was a little bit run down from a busy weekend and week, but it was great. So take time. Remember the moment you're in, and it's up to interpretation as to what the best time of year is, because then you can always look forward to the next best time of year.Tony Russo [00:26:59]:Yeah. And at the risk of getting too Zen about it, you can just also kind of learn to enjoy the moment that you're in, whether it's your favorite time of year or not. I'm not good at that. As we said in the beginning of the show, every time I wake up and I'm in Del Mar, it's not going to be a great day. The only other options I have is to not wake up, which is going to be even a worse day. And that's the last thing I think before I fall asleep every night. All right, well, we are up against it, and we had a great time. Please do all the social things that we ask you to do or not, but we should ask. Do it and tell me how you're enjoying the newsletter. I sent out the one newsletter. I'm going to send out another one. And we're letting AI write it. I'm fixing stupid mistakes, but not like when the machine's like, oh, Tony really put his foot in his mouth this time. I'm leaving that in. I don't care.Todd DeHart [00:28:08]:Soon the AI newsletter will just be and Tony says something controversial.Tony Russo [00:28:15]:I love being a cliche. Well, I'm out of stuff. How about you?Todd DeHart [00:28:21]:I got nothing.Tony Russo [00:28:22]:All right. Well, remember, until next time at the.Todd DeHart [00:28:24]:Beach, it's happy hour whenever you say it is.

Earth is now considered to be in a “danger zone,” a new study says. An international group of scientists called Earth Commission did the study. It appeared in the publication Nature. The researchers report that conditions on Earth have pushed past seven of eight safety limits established by science. The experts say the planet is very sick and all life, humans included, face extreme risks as a result. The study examines climate, air pollution, fertilizer pollution in water, groundwater supplies, fresh surface water, the unbuilt natural environment and the larger human-built environment. The research shows each of those areas have passed into dangerous conditions worldwide. Only air pollution is within the identified safety zone, the scientists report.一项新研究称，地球现在被认为处于“危险地带”。一个名为地球委员会的国际科学家小组进行了这项研究。它出现在《自然》杂志上。研究人员报告说，地球上的条件已经超过了科学规定的八个安全极限中的七个。专家说，地球病得很重，包括人类在内的所有生命都因此面临极端风险。该研究考察了气候、空气污染、水中肥料污染、地下水供应、地表淡水、未建成的自然环境和更大的人造环境。研究表明，这些地区中的每一个都已在全球范围内陷入危险境地。科学家报告说，只有空气污染在确定的安全区内。However, the report notes that air pollution is dangerous at local levels. The study found problem “hot spot” areas throughout the world, much of it from climate change. About two-thirds of Earth does not meet safe levels for freshwater supply, scientists said. Joyeeta Gupta is the Earth Commission co-chair and professor of environment at the University of Amsterdam. She told reporters that if planet Earth went to a medical exam, “our doctor would say that the Earth is really quite sick right now and it … is also affecting the people living on Earth.” But the planet can recover if people make changes, the researchers report. Such reforms would include reducing the use of coal, oil and natural gas and improving treatment of land and water, the scientists said.然而，报告指出，空气污染在地方层面是危险的。该研究发现了世界各地的问题“热点”地区，其中大部分来自气候变化。科学家说，地球上大约三分之二的地区不符合淡水供应的安全水平。 Joyeeta Gupta 是阿姆斯特丹大学地球委员会联合主席和环境学教授。她告诉记者，如果地球去体检，“我们的医生会说，地球现在真的病得很厉害，它……也影响到生活在地球上的人们。”但研究人员报告说，如果人们做出改变，地球就能恢复。科学家说，此类改革将包括减少煤炭、石油和天然气的使用，以及改善土地和水的处理。But “we are moving in the wrong direction on basically all of these,” said study lead author Johan Rockstrom, from the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research in Germany. The team of about 40 scientists created measurable boundaries for each environmental category. They decided the level where it is safe for the planet. The point at which it becomes harmful for groups of people, the researchers called a justice issue. Rockstrom said he thinks of those points as setting up “a safety fence'' outside of which the risks become higher, but not necessarily disastrous. Rockstrom and other scientists have attempted in the past this type of measuring of Earth's connected ecosystems. The big difference in this attempt is that scientists also looked at local and area levels and added the idea of justice.但是，“我们基本上在所有这些方面都朝着错误的方向前进，”来自德国波茨坦气候影响研究所的研究主要作者 Johan Rockstrom 说。这个由大约 40 名科学家组成的团队为每个环境类别创建了可测量的界限。他们决定了地球安全的水平。研究人员称它对人群有害的程度称为正义问题。 Rockstrom 说，他认为这些要点是建立“安全围栏”，在围栏之外风险会更高，但不一定是灾难性的。 Rockstrom 和其他科学家过去曾尝试过对地球相连的生态系统进行这种测量。这次尝试的最大不同在于，科学家们还着眼于地方和地区层面，并加入了正义的理念。The justice part includes fairness between young and old generations, different nations and even different species. Frequently, it applies to conditions that harm people more than the planet. An example of that is climate change. The report uses the same boundary of 1.5 degrees Celsius of warming that international leaders agreed upon in the 2015 Paris climate agreement. The world has so far warmed about 1.1 degrees Celsius so it has not crossed that safety fence, Rockstrom and Gupta said. But that does not mean people are not being hurt. “What we are trying to show through our paper is that even at 1 degree Centigrade there is a huge amount of damage taking place,” Gupta said. The planetary safety boundary of 1.5 degrees has not been reached. But the “just” boundary of 1 degree where people are hurt has been.正义部分包括年轻一代和老一代之间、不同国家甚至不同物种之间的公平。通常，它适用于对人类的伤害大于对地球的伤害。这方面的一个例子是气候变化。该报告使用了国际领导人在 2015 年巴黎气候协议中商定的 1.5 摄氏度升温边界。 Rockstrom 和 Gupta 说，到目前为止，世界已经变暖了大约 1.1 摄氏度，因此还没有超过安全栅栏。但这并不意味着人们没有受到伤害。 “我们试图通过我们的论文表明，即使在 1 摄氏度时，也会发生巨大的破坏，”古普塔说。尚未达到 1.5 度的行星安全边界。但是人们受到伤害的 1 度的“公正”边界已经存在Stanford environmental studies head Chris Field was not part of the research. He said he would want even more strict boundaries. “Sustainability and justice are inseparable,” he said.斯坦福大学环境研究负责人克里斯菲尔德没有参与这项研究。他说他想要更严格的界限。 “可持续性和正义是密不可分的，”他说。

It is World Day Against Trafficking in Persons and our podcast has listeners in 148 countries. This is an important day for us. It's just me, Sandie Morgan, today to let you know that I'm taking a few weeks off in August, so Dave and I will return to our regular schedule on August 29th. In the meantime, let's celebrate the United Nations annual observance by joining forces with our movement's global partners as we study the issues, be a voice, and make a difference in ending human trafficking. Our latest episode, Shifting the Supply Chain Burden, with Justin Dillon, took a deep dive on some of the legislation that has been passed most recently, especially the Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act. It's a big step forward in our movement, but we've been looking at this issue for more than a decade on our podcast. So during this short break, we've put together a decade of ten episodes around the role of business in ending human trafficking. Just go to the website www.endinghumantrafficking.org and click on the link to browse these recommendations. You can start most recently with Episode 269, when Matt Friedman suggested how we can empower businesses to create a slave free world. And of course, one of our frequent podcast guests and former Ambassador John Cotton Richmond joined us for episode 267, The Intersection of Business and Human Rights. In Episode 266, we went to Ghana with Chris Field rescuing boys labor trafficked in the fishing industry. And back on episode 247, Ben Skinner gave us the high level look from a corporate change viewpoint in fast fashion on perspectives on transformation in labor trafficking. We brought Deputy Executive Assistant Commissioner Cynthia Wittenberg on the podcast to talk to us about the role of Customs and Border Protection in disrupting supply chain forced labor. And back on 209,

The consequences of climate change have already been devastating: wildfires, drought, coastal flooding, and increased temperatures, among them. And there are massive economic, societal, and geopolitical and security costs as well. It's no wonder that many people may feel the situation at this point is hopeless. But in this episode of the Future of Everything, Stanford's Chris Field tells host and bioengineer Russ Altman that the world has made more progress than we might have expected a decade ago, and that we can still pave a way to a sustainable future, both by reducing emissions and by adapting to the impact of increasing temperatures through such things as technological innovation and improved infrastructure and land and resource management.

Prepare to be inspired today!    Today we are sitting down with the incredible Chris Field, founder of the Mercy Project, author of two books, career entrepreneur, and Father.    As an individual Chris had the opportunity to visit Ghana on a mission where he encountered children who had been trafficked and sold to fishermen. Leaving those children behind as he returned home became the catalyst for what is now The Mercy Project.  By introducing a new fishing method that eliminates the need for extra labor, Chris was able to negotiate the release of the trafficked children, returning them home.    Since 2009 Mercy Project has aimed to be fully invested and involved in Ghana. From a fully Ghanian staff to innovating change for those who have been affected. Chris and his team are fully committed to creating positive change in the world.    In addition to changing hundreds of lives, raising kids, Ted Talks, and other motivational events; Chris wrote two incredible books “Disrupting for Good” and “A Billion Hours of Good.”     If you, like us, asked “ How the heck does he do all this?? Are the reason Field's wrote both of his books. He hands us the keys to creating change and success, makes it simple, and tells us that, even if it is the smallest bit of change- it will have a snowball effect and create even more change.    So hustlers, with that we will leave you with Chris's favorite quote in order to become inspired to change the world:   “My life was changed forever when my willingness to do great things outgrew my fear of failure” Connect with Chris Field's and Mercy Project  Website: https://mercyproject.net/   Instagram: @mercyproject   Chris's Instagram: @distuptionchris   Twitter : @mercyproject   Chris's Twitter: https://twitter.com/disruptionchris   Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/mercyproject   Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC2H7R3rH7q35ZxN58OZh6mQ   Links to Purchase Chris's Books Disrupting for Good- https://meetchrisfield.com/ A Billion Hours of Good- https://www.amazon.com/Billion-Hours-Good-Changing-Minutes/dp/1684263115 Connect with Hustlers for a Cause: Visit our website: www.hustlersforacause.com Follow us on Instagram: www.instagram.com/hustlersforacause Follow us on Twitter: www.twitter.com/hustlers4acause Join our Facebook community: www.facebook.com/hustlersforacause/community Subscribe to our YouTube channel: www.youtube.com/channel/UCCJl0-Mxt3jcLle9_9TEfqA  

Often, we feel God's call to do something big for His glory.  At times, that calling may feel overwhelming to us.  We want to do His Will, but we may not know how and when. In this episode of Victory Groove, hear how Chris Field, a U.S. citizen, had the boldness, faith, and confidence to fight child trafficking in Ghana, Africa after reading about the horrendous problem there.  The Mercy Project was born out of a need to take action to address this critical human condition.  Lessons explored in this episode:  Knowing God is involved smooths our life's journey.   Roots and rocks will always appear in our daily walk. Our faith, trust in His benevolence, and love helps us move confidently forward in life.  Chris Field has been challenging complacency and disrupting the status quo most of his life. His most important disruption is Mercy Project, the non-profit he started to rescue children from human trafficking in Ghana, Africa. Its innovative approach has drawn international attention and earned the prestigious Norman Borlaug Humanitarian Award. To date, Mercy Project has rescued more than 150 children, returned them to their families, and provided them with an education that will transform their future for generations to come. Field lives in College Station, Texas with his wife Stacey and their four young children.

This is episode number 266, Rescuing Boys Labor Trafficked in the Fishing Industry with Chris Field. Production Credits [00:00:11] Produced by Innovate Learning, maximizing human potential. Dave [00:00:31] Welcome to the Ending Human Trafficking podcast. My name is Dave Stachowiak. Sandie [00:00:37] And my name is Sandie Morgan. Dave [00:00:39] And this is the show where we empower you to study the issues, be a voice, and make a difference in ending human trafficking. Sandie, I'm so looking forward to this conversation today, like I am for for so many of our conversations because I learn something new and one thing I realized in preparation for today's conversation about the fishing industry is I know very little about this industry. And of course, as we've talked about so often on the show, there's so many different aspects of trafficking and it touches, unfortunately, every industry in some way. Today, we're going to study the issues even more so we can ultimately be a voice and make a difference in all the work that we're doing. And I'm so glad to welcome Chris Field to the show today. He is the founder and executive director of Mercy Project. He traveled to Ghana for the first time in August 2009 and has since been on a mission to bring new life to children in slavery, as well as empower those around him to make the world a better place. Chris and his wife, Stacey, have five children, and he is the author of Disrupting for Good and a Billion Hours of Good. Chris, we're so glad to have you on the show today. Chris [00:01:51] Dave, Sandie, thank you guys so much for having me. It's truly an honor to be with you. Sandie [00:01:56] Well, Dave, I already had one conversation with Chris and we couldn't fit it all into a half an hour, so we're going to dive right in and do our best today. Let's start by reframing the word rescue. Chris, typically I imagine people running out of a burning house and the fireman running in to rescue any other occupants. But your definition is a little different. Can you expand on that? Chris [00:02:31] Yeah, of course. I mean, first, let me say we've had as a community and as an organization, we've had dozens of hours of conversation around this word because we don't want it to connote this savior complex of some sort and we've really struggled over the word. Is there a better word to explain what it is that happens in a community when children who have been bought for 20, 30,

In this episode of the Social Lights Podcast, podcast host and https://my.captivate.fm/www.socialmediology.com.au (Social Mediology) founder Kate vanderVoort chats with Chris Field, CEO and founder of Mercy Project, an innovative nonprofit working to end child labor trafficking in Ghana, Africa. Outside of his role at Mercy Project, he is an award-winning author, speaker, business consultant, college lecturer, four time Guinness world record holder, viral sensation, 27-time marathoner, and ice cream lover. About Chris Chris' passion around community is centered on all of us getting more comfortable with what it is that we have to offer. He believes that when we choose to give what we have and not what we have left, the impact of that kind of gift can be so great. His greatest superpower is inspiring people to believe they can actually change the world and then showing them how to join him in doing it. He is married to his high school sweetheart, Stacey, and is father to Micah, Beckett, Lincoln, and Theodore. He is the author of "A Billion Hours of Good" and "Disrupting for Good." BIG IDEA 1 “Community is us believing that we're better together.” (12:09) Chris talked about how everyone of us have something good to give the world today. He said that we all have these little moments for us to give what we have, and just to say, “Look, it's not much but this is what I have”. And the beauty of that is when a whole bunch of people do that, collectively, it's transformational, and it creates a tidal wave of good that simply cannot be contained. He also discussed about how a community is a bunch of ordinary people choosing to receive the gifts we have with open hands, and how we are also giving the gifts back with the same open hands. He encourages us to give what we have a little bit every day, and trust that over time, the impact of that is going to be greater than we could ever imagine. BIG IDEA 2 “What we lack is courageous leaders.  I really believe there's this beautiful opportunity to find courageous leaders as the world is desperate of them. ” (17:26) Chris shared that based on his experience, if you've got a well thought out, sincere, life changing, life altering sort of idea and you're willing to sacrifice for it, people are going to line up behind you because we're all hungry to be part of something bigger than ourselves. We have this deep yearning of our lives to matter. We want to do stuff that matters. And that cuts across all socio-economic status and education level and age. He advised to do the right thing and find that things that you know and chase it like a dog chases a tennis ball, and look behind you, you'll see a bunch of people following behind you. He added that people are so gracious, especially when you're vulnerable, transparent, and honest about what you're learning and how you're growing and how you're improving. BIG IDEA 3 “At some point, you have to ask if the things you're sharing and the ways you're communicating and the choices you're making and the messages you are creating about, is really resonating with people.” (26:55) Chris said that on social media, vanity metrics are fine. But at the end of the day, as an author, speaker, and as somebody who really wants to make a difference in the world, it's when people start coming to him and saying, that something he wrote mattered enough that it was changing behaviors in their life, for him, that's the greatest gift anybody can give. He thinks that if we listen carefully, people will tell us if the things we're doing are making an impact. We'll be able to tell in the ways people look at us. If they're waiting for us, if they're listening to us, if they're wanting us to weigh in on hard topics, because they value our voice, those are...

14 minutes. That's 1% of your day. What if just that 1% was dedicated to doing “good?” That's exactly what Chris Field has done and is trying to encourage others to join him. In this episode, I spoke with Chris about his journey to start the Mercy Project, a non-profit aimed at eradicating child slavery in Ghana and how he tries to focus on the compassion, courage, and creativity we all have in us to do good in the world.

In this episode of the Active Texan podcast we sit down with author Chris Field. Chris has run over 20 marathons and started the BCS marathon here in Bryan/College Station. Chris also founded the Mercy Project nonprofit which helps rescue children from slavery and trafficking in Ghana, Africa. He has written two books, Disruption for Good and A Billion Hours of Good both giving you the path to become a disrupter and how to cause the most impact for good. This inspirational high achiever has many stories as an awesome active Texan. Enjoy!

Are you looking for your confidence and clarity to do the things that you value the most? Are you struggling to find time or money to show up and make a difference? Chris Field and Lantz Howard dive into a conversation about changing your world and why we need to see failure as an opportunity. Chris is the Founder of MercyProject.net and author of the new book A Billion Hours of Good: How to Change Your World 14 Minutes at a Time. Chris was adrift, depressed, and gaining weight when he realized that he was not living in alignment with his best gifts. Since that time Chris and Mercy Project have rescued and reintegrated 181 child slaves from Ghana, Africa. Chris debunks the myth about why we don't give up our time and money more often in order to show up in the world and make a difference. Grab a copy of the book and begin to clarify your best YES so you can say no to the noise and gluttony that modern life offers. You are a champion and others need your presence to offer hope. "A billion hours is equivalent to 114,000 years. That's how much good we're going to do together. Just 14 minutes at a time. You don't need more money, or time, or even another election cycle to bring transformational change to your community. What you need is to believe that daily microdoses of good over years and years can create a great return. Stop waiting for the big change moment and seize the good that you can do today. Join Chris in pledging 1 percent of your time (14 minutes a day) to make the world a better place. Learn how to solve old problems in new ways, and walk with Chris as he shows you how he started Mercy Project-a nonprofit committed to ending child trafficking in Ghana. See how compassion and care can serve as rocket fuel for deep courage and untapped creativity. Our responsibility in a world filled with suffering is to care, show up, and act. Not once, not twice, but a little bit every day for the rest of our lives. Accept this invitation and join a global movement for extraordinary good. Impossible alone. Transformational together." Wow. This book came at just the right time for me. In fact, it is probably just the right time for our world. I found myself smiling and nodding as I quickly turned page after page. Chris Field inspires through excellent story-telling but also provides a practical blueprint for us all to follow to create A Billion Hours of Good 14 minutes at a time. I want to share this book with everyone. ―Terri Dorsey, Director of Executive Development, Boys & Girls Clubs of America In A Billion Hours of Good, Chris pilots a metaphorical lawnmower. He clears a path by anticipating excuses and mowing them over. Chris started with my heart and then nimbly made his way into the part of my brain that too easily generates retorts-and in that very spot he worked his magic. Using pragmatism and relatable stories, Chris showed me I am capable of doing hard things, motivated me to do hard things, and helped me believe in my ability to make a meaningful impact in the world-in just 14 minutes a day. ―Corey Oliver, Former Senior HR leader at Nike and Deloitte -- You can find out more about Lantz Howard at ChampionHope.com and schedule your free Ask Lantz Anything at ChampionHope.com --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/champion-hope/support

Most reality TV shows focus on generating ratings from conflict, humiliations, titillation and largely negative content in relationships.  So it came as a surprise to many that the TLC reality TV show about the Duggar family became their most popular ever, ... and has been exported to over 200 countries. Our Families Need Encouragement What makes the Duggar's shows compelling and their company when they are with you so encouraging is that they are living and breathing what we all want - for our relationships to be strong, and wanting what is best for our marriage and our kids. - and doing much better at it with 19 kids than most of us are doing with one or two.
