If you've ever wondered how verdicts really work, what rights defendants have, and whether prosecutors can get a second chance after a loss in court, you won't want to miss this insightful episode.Welcome back to Lawyer Talk! In this episode, host Steve Palmer dives into a recent Columbus, Ohio case involving police officer Connor Grubbs, who was acquitted of homicide-related charges after a controversial shooting incident. While the case sparked plenty of heated debate, today's focus is on a fascinating legal question: can the government appeal an acquittal if they disagree with the verdict?Drawing from his decades of criminal defense experience, Steve Palmer breaks down why—thanks to the Fifth Amendment and double jeopardy protections—the answer is a firm “no.” He also sheds light on those rare exceptions when a government CAN appeal, such as when evidence is suppressed before trial. Got a legal question? Steve Palmer invites listeners to reach out for future episodes at LawyerTalkPodcast.com.Key Takeaways:No Appeals After Acquittal: Once a jury finds a defendant not guilty, the government cannot appeal the verdict. This is a fundamental protection for defendants in our justice system.Limited Exceptions Exist: The government can sometimes appeal pre-trial rulings—such as when crucial evidence is suppressed—but only before trial and never after an acquittal.Double Jeopardy Protection: The Fifth Amendment's double jeopardy clause prevents the government from putting someone on trial for the same crime more than once, cementing the acquittal as final.Got a question you want answered on the podcast? Call 614-859-2119 and leave us a voicemail. Steve will answer your question on the next podcast!Submit your questions to www.lawyertalkpodcast.com.Recorded at Channel 511.Stephen E.

In this week's Mindful Mondays, Ashley Bentley explores the Circle of Control - a simple yet deeply regulating framework that helps neurodivergent nervous systems find steadiness in moments of anger, overwhelm, and emotional overload.Building on themes from recent episodes on December fatigue and nervous system regulation, Ashley shares how learning to release what is outside our control can radically change how we experience stress, reactivity, and burnout. Drawing on a powerful conversation from Episode 75 of The Neurodivergent Experience Podcast, she reflects on how the Circle of Control became one of the most effective tools her co-host Jordan has ever used for regulating anger - especially in high-stress moments like driving.This episode gently unpacks the paradox of control: how gripping too tightly to ourselves can create anxiety, while letting go of what was never ours restores clarity, agency, and calm. Through story, metaphor, and nervous-system wisdom, listeners are invited to rethink control not as domination, but as a compassionate way of choosing where attention and energy truly belong.The episode closes with a soothing Yoga Nidra–inspired practice, guiding listeners into deep rest and embodied focus - a way of experiencing the Circle of Control not just as an idea, but as a felt sense of inner steadiness.A grounding companion for anyone feeling stretched thin, reactive, or overwhelmed - and a reminder that peace often begins by carrying less.❤️ Support the ShowIf this episode resonated with you:✅ Follow or Subscribe to The Neurodivergent Experience⭐ Leave a quick review on Apple Podcasts or Spotify

In this episode, we talk with Aaron Jorgensen about how JobHive came to life - starting as a small résumé-parsing experiment and gradually growing into a structured, AI-supported interview workflow. Aaron explains how the system handles voice capture, transcription, prompts, and AI avatars, and why he moved toward a multi-agent approach instead of relying on one model to do everything.We dig into what “fair scoring” actually means, how cross-checking evaluators and confidence levels work, and why it's important to keep the reasoning behind decisions visible to both employers and candidates.From the builder's perspective, Aaron walks through the practical side of developing the platform: shaping an MVP, working with LangChain, choosing AWS tools that reduce overhead, and dealing with the usual setbacks—broken features, unreliable external services, and the moments that test your patience. He also talks about the routines and habits that helped him stay consistent during the harder stretches.If you're interested in hiring workflows, AI tooling, or the reality of turning a rough prototype into a functioning product, this conversation covers it all.To learn more about Aaron's work, check out his websites or reach out to him on socials:JobHive: https://jobhive.aiAaron's Website: https://ajeema.com/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mraaronjorgensen/Circle: https://pybites.circle.so/u/22287446___Book mentioned in ep: https://pybitesbooks.com/books/P3EFa-WuMMkC___

On the night of April 20, 1989, a desolate stretch of highway near Circle, Montana, was plunged into chaos. After a head-on collision, Patricia Meehan emerged from the wreckage, dazed but seemingly unharmed. She was not frantic or crying for help. Instead, she was unnervingly silent. Patricia then climbed a fence, watched the aftermath for a moment, and walked away into the Montana night, sparking a decades-long mystery fueled by thousands of sightings across the country.

In this episode of FYI – For Your Innovation, ARK's Brett and Lorenzo are joined by Sandeep Nailwal, co-founder of Polygon, to explore the evolving landscape of Ethereum scaling, the role of Layer 2s, and Polygon's growing importance in Web3 infrastructure. Sandeep unpacks how Polygon transitioned from a sidechain into a comprehensive execution layer, supporting both shared and dedicated compute environments. The discussion spans Polygon's technology roadmap (including the transition to Polygon 2.0), the distinction between sidechains and L2s, and how Polygon's AggLayer is designed to unify fragmented liquidity across custom blockchains. They also address the competitive dynamics between public blockchains and “corpo chains” like those initiated by Stripe, Circle, and Coinbase—raising questions about credible neutrality, token economics, and long-term adoption paths. Sandeep outlines Polygon's strategy of prioritizing scale before revenue, aiming to build lasting infrastructure in the face of fast-moving innovation.Key Points From This Episode:[00:00] – Intro: What are Layer 1s, Layer 2s, and sidechains?[08:00] – Why apps are moving to dedicated L2s[20:03] – What is Polygon, and why is “L2” a misnomer?[28:03] – Pitching Polygon to institutions and developers[29:01] – Competitive landscape: too many chains, not enough clarity[34:14] – Are L2s valuable businesses?[35:30] – Why usage, not fees, is Polygon's current priority[40:46] – Corpo chains and how they leverage open infrastructure[48:41] – What success looks like for Polygon in 5 years[49:54] – Key metrics: TVL, throughput, and transaction growth[50:57] – Outro and closing reflections from Brett
The Momentum Equation: Why Effort Alone Won't Grow Your Cash PT Clinic In this episode, Doc Danny Matta uses a simple physics concept—momentum—to explain why some cash practices take off and others stall out. He breaks down his "business momentum equation" (effort × accuracy), shows why hard work on the wrong things keeps you stuck, and explains how to aim your effort at the right tasks so your clinic actually moves forward. Quick Ask If this episode helps you see your business more clearly, share it with another clinician who's grinding but not gaining traction—and tag @dannymattaPT so he can reshare it. Episode Summary Physics meets practice: Danny borrows the momentum formula (mass × velocity) and adapts it to business. The new equation: In business, momentum = effort × accuracy. Effort isn't the issue: Most cash PT owners work hard; the problem is where that effort goes. Accuracy is the multiplier: Working on the right tasks, in the right order, is what creates real momentum. Wrong work, no progress: You can row 80 hours a week and still go in circles if your strategy is off. Foundations first: Just like rehab progressions, business skills must be built in sequence. Clarity relieves stress: Knowing "what's next" eliminates the anxiety of guessing your way forward. Get help when stuck: Coaching and proven frameworks improve accuracy and speed up results. Lessons & Takeaways Momentum is earned: It shows up when focused effort stacks on top of clear priorities. Hard work isn't rare: What's rare is hard work applied to the right problems. Sequence matters: Don't skip from "no leads" to "advanced funnels" without basic sales and marketing skills. Self-awareness is a skill: Admitting what you don't know is the first step to changing your results. Help = faster, safer growth: Guidance reduces mistakes when your business is how you feed your family. Mindset & Motivation Stop blaming effort: If you're already grinding, your problem is almost always accuracy, not hustle. Reframe "stuck" as mis-aimed: Feeling stalled usually means your work is pointed at the wrong targets. Accept that it's hard: Building a clinic that changes your life is supposed to be difficult—and that's why it's meaningful. Decisiveness beats drift: Endless learning with no action is purgatory; pick a plan and move. Pro Tips for Clinic Owners Audit your week: List your tasks and circle only the ones that directly drive revenue, retention, or referrals. Kill "busy work": Offload or eliminate tasks that don't move you toward your goals. Set one main target: Focus your effort on a single primary objective for the next 90 days. Use tech to free capacity: Tools like Claire can take documentation off your plate so you can work on higher-value projects. Get outside eyes: A coach or advisor can quickly spot where your accuracy is off and help redirect your effort. Notable Quotes "Momentum in business isn't mass × velocity—it's effort × accuracy." "Most entrepreneurs aren't lazy. They're just rowing hard in the wrong direction." "If nothing changes, nothing changes. Learning without implementation doesn't move your life forward." "The stress comes from not knowing if you're doing the right things, not from hard work itself." Action Items Review your last two weeks and identify where most of your effort is going. Circle 2–3 tasks that truly drive growth (new evals, follow-ups, referrals, key projects). Eliminate or delegate at least one "busy" task that doesn't impact revenue or retention. Define your next 90-day priority and align your calendar to it. Schedule a strategy call with PT Biz to get a second set of eyes on where your effort and accuracy are misaligned.

Whether you're curious about famous cases, the restoration of rights, or the possibility of pardoning undiscovered crimes, this episode has all the answers. Welcome to another episode of Lawyer Talk! In today's Q&A-style session, host Steve Palmer explains the intriguing topic of presidential pardons. Drawing from questions submitted by listeners and recent headlines, Steve explores the true extent of the president's pardon power—what it covers, what it doesn't, and the notable differences between federal and state convictions. With a blend of historical perspective and legal insight, you'll learn how past presidents have used this authority, the constitutional roots of the power, and the real-world implications for those who receive pardons. Grab your headphones as we demystify presidential pardons here on Lawyer Talk!Here are the top three takeaways:Presidential Pardons Are Limited to Federal Convictions - The U.S. President cannot pardon state court convictions (e.g., cases from New York or Ohio); the power only applies to federal offenses.Rights Restoration—Not Expungement - A pardon restores rights lost due to conviction (firearms, voting, etc.), but doesn't erase the record like an expungement.Scope of Pardon Power: Broad, But Not Boundless - Courts have affirmed the President's wide-ranging ability to pardon, but there's lingering legal uncertainty around pardons for crimes “not yet discovered” or future offenses—especially given recent actions.Got a question you want answered on the podcast?

If you've ever walked into a team meeting or strategy session and felt like the stories being shared weren't shifting anything…this episode is your reframe. Today I'm talking with David Hutchens, storyteller, author, organizational consultant, and creator of some of my absolute favorite tools for leaders who want to use narrative to build alignment in their teams. David has worked with global organizations to help them move from merely telling stories to making meaning together, and that's exactly what we dive into today. David breaks down why: Storytelling is humanity's oldest sense-making technology The story itself is not the end, but the beginning of a deeper team conversation Alignment doesn't happen when one person tells a great story… it happens when the team talks about what that story means Groups who make meaning together actually become a community Story circles can transform a team's connection, coherence, and creativity "Emotional data" is just as real as any spreadsheet—and storytelling can reveal it He also introduces his beautiful "geography of meaning" framework, which helps teams explore a story from three different orientations: Behind the text – What did we notice about the storyteller, ourselves, or the room? Within the text – What images, moments, or messages stood out inside the story? In front of the text – What wisdom can we pull forward into our team's future? And the three listener roles that bring this alive: Witness. Harvester. Connector. This episode is the perfect companion to my earlier conversation with Brett Davidson, where we explored the shift from storytelling to storylistening, and how individual stories can accidentally silo us unless we build a collective narrative. If David gives you the "how" of sense-making, Brett gives you the "why" of collective storytelling for strategy. Together, these episodes are your starter kit for Reframe to Create 2.0, moving from "me" to "we," from solo creating to community sense-making, and from personal story to shared story. Because if we want to create together, we must reframe together.

with @zcabrams @psneville @rhackettIn this episode, Robert Hackett sits down with Sean Neville, cofounder of Circle and co-creator of the USDC stablecoin, and Zach Abrams, founder of Bridge (now part of Stripe), for a deep dive into the real story behind stablecoins, finding product-market fit, and the future of payments infrastructure.They explore the earliest days of USDC — when stablecoins were far from obvious and regulatory frameworks didn't exist.

Why does God make us wait—especially when the prayer seems good, urgent, and necessary? In this Christmas-season episode of Youth Worker on Fire, Doug Edwards explores one of the hardest spiritual disciplines for leaders, volunteers, students, and parents: waiting on God's timing. Drawing from Acts 1:4, prophetic anticipation before Jesus' birth, and insights from Mark Batterson's Draw the Circle, Doug unpacks why "not yet" is often God's path to deeper faith, clarity, and spiritual power. Through personal stories and student ministry memories, Doug reveals how waiting forms character—not just in us, but in the students we lead. In this episode, Doug shares: ✅ Why God's "no" is often a "not yet" ✅ Why the disciples were told to wait before receiving the Holy Spirit ✅ How prophetic silence built anticipation for the Messiah ✅ What to do when your prayers seem unanswered ✅ How to teach students patience, trust, and expectancy ✅ Why leaders burn out when they skip the waiting seasons Doug also tackles church expectations, spiritual hypocrisy students see, and why good people sometimes do foolish things—yet God never wastes the waiting. This episode speaks directly to youth pastors, volunteers, teachers, coaches, and parents who are leading students through stress, prayer requests, and spiritual uncertainty. It's a reminder that God works while we wait, and that this season might be the one where He prepares you—and your students—for what's next. _________________________________________________________________________________
Join Andrew Young as he decodes the world of crypto with special guest Rachel Mayer, VP of Product at Arc. Listen in as they discuss Circle's launch of Arc as a USDC-centric layer one network designed for predictable gas fees, instant finality, and compliant privacy, the rapid shift in stablecoin regulation and the impact of the GENIUS Act, the rise of non-USD stablecoins and tokenized FX markets, how RWAs, Morpho-style vault structures, and tokenized treasuries could reshape global capital flows, and why Arc's architecture, interoperability strategy, and potential transition to delegated proof-of-stake position it as a core platform for the next wave of institutional onchain finance.
We've all heard the quote that you are the average of the five people you spend the most time with and it's true. The people closest to us shape our habits, our mindset, our values, and our character. In this episode, Sam shares why Christians not only need to surround themselves with wise and successful people, but especially with successful Christians whose lives reflect integrity, humility, and obedience to God. She also reminds listeners that the most important relationship of all is the one we have with the Lord. If we want to become more like Christ, we must intentionally spend time with Him in Scripture, prayer, worship, and stillness. Key Scriptures: Proverbs 13:20 1 Corinthians 15:33 John 15:4–5
A seminal, pioneering figure in the 90s and 00s UK tech house scene, a mix from Pure Science is as bucket list as they come. With his first Australia tour over New Years approaching fast, the mysterious tech house luminary reappears from his subterranean science den with a whopping five(!!) hour live set, full of moody unreleased gems and carefully reimagined classics from his genre shaping 30+ year discography. @purescience Q. What an incredible journey this mix is! What sounds or feelings did you draw upon when gathering inspiration for the mix, and what listening environments could you imagine it being best enjoyed in? A. Thank you for your kind words, Myles. I was initially asked to do a couple of hours, but thought, I would do at least four, and start with a good hour of unreleased ambient / downtempo tracks that I have made, that I wouldn't necessarily play out to a dance floor, and build up the tempo. So to answer your question, I guess I was pulling out tracks that were made at a close tempo, and gradually build up to a Deep House / Techno range. There are loads of unreleased bits, which I will be featuring on upcoming albums. I guess the vibe was to keep it deep, and not to bang it out or play too obvious, and to add a couple of surprises in there, as it is for the Melbourne Deepcast after all. Q. Are there any records in the mix that you were especially excited to share, and what is it about these songs that resonate with you so much? A. I am not playing any records, CDJ's or harmonicas on this mix.. Lol, Only Ableton Live, Korg ER1 drum machine, Roland System 100 modular (clone), Novation Nova & Evolution uc-33 midi controller. There is one track that I have only played out once when I was in my teens, and it was written in 1989, when I was 15/16 years old. It's called Circle, and is on the mix at around 3:43:43 mark (The hypnotic track with the organ). Q. I know you've made special edits of some of your classic Pure Science records for this mix, tell us about how you like to reimagine your music from 20+ years ago, and how your sound has evolved since creating your most iconic records in the late 90s.. A. I've been re-recording, mixing, and mastering some of my classic releases, and preparing them for live, i.e. stripping down the parts to the basic form e.g. Kick, Snare, Hats, Claps, Toms, Congas, Percussion, Bass, Keys, Vox, etc, so I can re-arrange the tracks on the fly or break down to my drum machines / synths / recorded modular jams if I feel I want to improvise to the crowd a bit, or I can just concentrate on the blend of tracks, and the selection like a DJ would, and have complete control of the journey.. Q. We're all very excited to see you play in Melbourne on NYD! Tell us about your hybrid live / DJ setup, is that something you've been refining for a while now? A. I am very excited too, as I have been going through, my old floppy disks going back to 1987, from my old Ensoniq SQ80, as it has just come back from a service, and has had its 10-year internal battery replacement. I have been rediscovering tracks that I had totally forgotten about. Specifically a couple of tracks that I love, one is called Moon from 1992, and the other called Tibet from that same era. Both were made a little faster than what I would play out now, and were over 135BPM, but if you slow them down a bit, they just sound chunkier, and PHATer. x p.s. It's only hybrid if I DJ too, and I probably won't have time for that. Live only on this trip. Thank you all for your time, and I hope to see you on the dance floor..

Ready to find out what's really at stake in the suppression hearing?Welcome back to Lawyer Talk, where we go off the record but stay on the air. In this episode, Steve Palmer and Troy Henricksen dive deep into the suppression hearing in the high-profile case of Luigi Mangione—the man accused of shooting Brian Thompson, CEO of UnitedHealthcare.Together, they break down not just what happened during Mangione's arrest at a Pennsylvania McDonald's, but also the crucial legal arguments taking shape around his constitutional rights. Was Mangione truly “in custody” when police cornered and questioned him? Did officers follow Miranda protocols, or did they overstep? What about the search of his backpack, which uncovered a manifesto and firearm—was that lawful, or a violation of his Fourth Amendment rights?From the nuances of custodial interrogation to the exceptions that allow police searches without a warrant, Steve Palmer brings his 30 years of criminal defense experience to the table, while Troy Henricksen offers insightful questions and analysis from a law student's perspective. Whether you're a legal aficionado or just intrigued by courtroom drama, this episode gives you a front-row seat to the arguments and strategies that could shape the outcome of one of the country's biggest cases.Moments00:00 Police Violations of Constitutional Rights03:34 "Luigi's Suppression Hearing Details"09:07 Mangione's Freedom Questioned10:03 "Police-Controlled Environment Analysis"16:22 "Suppressed Statements Impact Cases"17:32 "Miranda Rights and Custodial Interrogation"22:24 "Wingspan Search Exception Debate"26:02 "Terrorism Charges Dropped"27:49 "Inventory Search Exception Explained"30:24 "Search Validity Debate in Court"33:15 "Legal Insights and Q&A"Submit your questions to www.lawyertalkpodcast.com.Recorded at Channel 511.Stephen E.

Reality, Grief, and Hope: Our Posture of Lament challenges us to thoughtfully examine the intersection of faith and politics, exploring the role of the church in society amidst cultural challenges. From some of the greats (Walter Brueggemann and D Willy), we're able to map out a posture to hold in these time. From naming the reality we see around us, lamenting and grieving what we've seen and living in the hope of what's to come. In this episode of the Voxology Podcast, Mike Erre and Tim Stafford unpack the complexities of Christian nationalism, drawing parallels between biblical prophetic critiques and modern-day issues. Through a lens of cruciformity, they discuss how the teachings of Jesus call us to navigate cultural issues with humility, justice, and critical thinking. The hosts engage in an honest conversation about the importance of lament, naming uncomfortable truths, and pursuing hope in a divided world. From the misuse of religious rhetoric to the church's prophetic responsibility, this episode invites listeners to wrestle with questions of faith, politics, and the transformative power of Jesus' example. As cultural norms shift, how can Christians embody the way of Christ without compromising integrity and compassion? Join this deep dive into theology, justice, and the pressing challenges of our time. Feel free to email in questions, engage the conversation on Facebook and Instagram, or share your thoughts as we navigate these topics together.

Can a prison sentence be extended after someone's already behind bars? Using the tragic story behind Ohio's Reagan Tokes Act as a starting point, we break down how and why sentences might be lengthened, what role the parole authority plays, and the evolution of sentencing laws in Ohio. Along the way, we touch upon the legal debates around due process, the politics of laws named after victims, and what all of this means for people caught up in the system. Whether you're curious about indefinite sentences, parole hearings, or just want to know how the law actually works beyond the headlines, this episode brings clarity—with plenty of opinions. Here are 3 key takeaways:The Reagan Tokes Act in Ohio introduced indefinite sentencing: For qualifying felony crimes of violence, offenders receive a sentencing range (e.g., 8 to 11 years). The parole board can extend incarceration up to the maximum if there are continuing risks or infractions, fundamentally shifting how time served is determined.Due process and legal controversy: The Ohio Supreme Court recently upheld the Reagan Tokes Act's structure (in State v. Hacker, 2023), deciding that the judge still sets the range while the parole authority determines exactly how long is served—raising ongoing debates around separation of powers and due process.The risks of “exception-based” legislation: Laws named after victims, like the Reagan Tokes Act, often arise from singular, horrific events. While politically compelling, they can create widespread changes affecting many beyond the case that prompted them.Got a question you want answered on the podcast?
