Molly Heintz grew up fascinated with Greek mythology, and eventually, fashion – drawn to enthralling storytelling and visual aesthetics. She carried this interest in Greek mythology over to studying archeology but when she became burned out in academia, she transitioned to work as a fashion editor, setting her on an entirely new careerpath. From there, she worked in marketing and communications, eventually co-founding Superscript and teaching at SVA, chairing the Masters of Arts in Design Research, Writing & Criticism program. Together with Steven Heller, she's co-edited The Education of a Design Writer to showcase exemplary design writing and share practical advice for writers. Molly makes a compelling case for why design writing is essential for the design process, and for understanding the world around us.

Send us a textIn this episode of Marketing Espresso, I'm joined by Asthaar Kool to talk about one of the most powerful parts of business - positioning. It's that invisible thread that determines whether people instantly get what you do, or scroll past your brand entirely.Asthaar explains that product positioning helps people choose you, while brand positioning helps them stay. Together, they form the foundation of everything you do in marketing & sales.We explore the difference between positioning & messaging, why clarity always beats cleverness, and how businesses can identify what truly makes them stand out. Asthaar shares real-world examples, including the famous muffin vs cake story that perfectly illustrates how a simple change in context completely shifts perception, pricing, and audience.We also dive into the practical side of repositioning - collecting customer feedback, defining your top three strengths, understanding your audience's mindset, and refining how you talk about your product or service. Asthaar shares how your website, your sales process, and even your tone of voice all reflect your positioning whether you realise it or not.We discuss common mistakes - like pretending to be bigger than you are, leading with vague promises e.g “save time” or “increase revenue,” or using trendy buzzwords like AI without a real differentiator.Key takeaway: Being clear beats being clever every single time. People buy what they understand, not what sounds fancy.Action step: Audit your brand & website. Can someone who's never heard of you understand what you do, who you help, & why it matters within five seconds? If not, it's time to revisit your positioning. Be specific, stay curious, & keep listening to your customers - because their feedback is your best data.Connect with Asthaar:websiteInstagramDOWNLOAD MY CONTENT PLANNER - https://becchappell.com.au/content-planner/Instagram @bec_chappellLinkedIn – Bec Chappell If you're ready to work together, I'm ready to work with you and your team.How to work with me:1.

Buckle up for episode #499 of the Clever Name Podcast: "The Thicc Liz Situation"! Hosts Ryan, Martin, Dodds, and the chaotic crew dive into the absurd and hilarious – from Ryan and "shit bag" Corey getting hilariously "j*erked off" by the legendary Thicc Liz (you gotta hear this story), to Martin and Ryan plotting their epic Alberta road trip. They unpack the surprising benefits of quitting weed, Ryan's dad's bizarre "hair freshener" ritual, Ryan's epic nose-breaking fail, and Dodds dropping cash on a special craft beer that sparks non-stop roasting.The laughs escalate with the crew's signature idiotic games, including a prodigy-level round of "Guess Who I Am" that leaves everyone in stitches. Expect immature, offensive, grotesque hot takes on epic fails, subscriber-only vibes, and zero filters – this is comedy without apologies.

Tim Parker has massive experience of successfully managing big urban infrastructure and development projects.In this episode, he shines a light on his unique insights from an impressive CV and speaks with both passion and clarity about leading his latest large-scale project: the Federal Government's initiative to build high speed rail initially between Newcastle and Sydney on Australia's east cost, with the ambition to build further on this link in future.This is a massive transport undertaking, promoting a low-carbon transition from car and air over to rail, and economic and housing development and community opportunity – a project of national, and we think international, significance of interest to listeners from a wide range of professional and policy backgrounds and countries. Big ambitions for a big country: seems about right to us. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Viele Depots sind voller Aktien, Aktienfonds und ETFs, die nur noch wenig bringen. Hinzu kommen Nieten, an denen Anleger viel zu lange festhalten. Anleger sollten regelmäßig aufräumen: „Es ist auch ein psychologisches Phänomen, dass wir uns mit unseren Nieten nicht so gerne beschäftigen wollen. Und wir möchten sie auch nicht so gerne verkaufen, weil wir uns ja dann eingestehen würden, dass es ein Verlustgeschäft ist. Clever ist es nicht! Zudem nicht nur nach der Kursentwicklung schauen, sondern würde ich die Aktie z.B. auch zum jetzigen Zeitpunkt wieder kaufen. Wie könnte das Unternehmen in Zukunft dastehen und was traue ich der Aktie“, so Buchautorin und Finanzjournalistin Jessica Schwarzer.

Emmy-nominated costume designer Virginia B. Johnson grew up with a “dragon mother,” which shaped her structured habits and her ability to work smoothly amid chaos. Her childhood was filled with intergenerational connection and crafting - learning sewing, embroidery, knitting and crocheting from a “flock of Filipina aunties,” which fostered not only a sense of community, but a foundational skill for her eventual career. Although she was a pre-med major in college, a serendipitous side gig in a college theater costume shop sparked a passionate pivot to a career that now includes critically-acclaimed and award-winning projects like Hillbilly Elegy and American Primeval, and the opportunity to lead teams in the art of deploying deep craft and rigorous, reverent cultural authenticity to drive powerful storytelling.

Today's episode features Chris Clever, the President of Hikari Sales USA, and Eric Triplett discussing the subject of aquatic fish food and fish husbandry. Clever asserts that most fish foods prioritize marketing over nutritional research, contrasting this with Hikari's extensive research and development process, which can take years and includes a dedicated research lab in Japan. The discussion explains how poor-quality food impacts fish health and water quality due to undigested waste and also covers the importance of feeding frequency, proper pellet size, and the company's preference for frozen food supplements over live foods due to contamination risks. Furthermore, Clever provides a brief history of the Hikari brand, which originated in the late 1800s by raising carp as food fish, and highlights the Saki-Hikari line as a top innovation featuring beneficial probiotics. Key Takeaways: Prioritize food based on nutritional research and scientific development rather than focusing only on marketing stories. Feed fish small amounts of food multiple times throughout the day to maintain an optimized metabolism. Select the smallest size pellet your fish will accept to increase the surface area available for digestion. Avoid mixing different brands of fish food, as this disrupts the carefully balanced nutritional profile of a quality diet. Invest in both a high-quality fish food and an effective water conditioner to reduce long-term maintenance issues and enjoy your hobby more.

You want to create something that's never been created before. You want to be that person who's doing something no one's ever dared to do. You're creating programs that intersect things people say don't belong together. You're creating products that are so highly differentiated because they're solving real problems in the market. You are quite literally the definition of an innovator.But here's the thing… you need copy that makes your offers completely digestible. No more leaning on phrases like “It's such a good offer, but people have to experience it to get it,” or “Nothing out there is like it, so it can't be explained.”That's lazy messaging. Everything can be explained. Everything can be digestible. Everything can be understood by an eighth grader. Everything can be grasped in under two minutes.So today, I'm calling out every innovator, rebel, and narrative rewriter who's tired of blending into the sea of sameness. We're unpacking how to keep your creative edge without losing clarity.You'll learn:How to craft messaging that's clear, bold, and magnetic — no overcomplication required.Why “lazy messaging” kills your innovation (and how to write copy that moves).The secret to balancing creativity and clarity in your brand strategy.A no-fluff breakdown of how to distill your big ideas into sales copy that converts.What to audit in your CTAs, headers, and bios to keep your ideal clients on track and obsessed.This episode is for you if: You're the kind of creator who sees “trending audio” and thinks, been there, did that last year. You're allergic to boring. You build offers so unique there's no roadmap for them — and that's exactly why your copywriting needs to be sharper than ever. You're not here to sound like everyone else. You're here to make people move.Want to become the unicorn in your industry? DM me on Instagram @mywritehandwoman and snag your spot in Unicorn Messaging. First four get a free 1:1 with her!

When Marion pops up on Zoom with her curls blown out to smooth newscaster perfection, it's a hot topic and one that offers a perfect lead-in to the first poem up for discussion, “Your Hair Wants Cutting” by this episode's featured poet, Michael Montlack. The three poems we're considering take inspiration from the Mad Hatter character in Lewis Carroll's Alice's Adventures in Wonderland. We discuss, Slushies, how much, if any, contextual framing is needed to guide the reader when poems refer to a character who resides in our collective imagination. We also talk about local and regional idioms, and for Kathy, how difficult they are to unlearn (shout out to Pittsburgh!). Marion accidentally bestows a new nickname on Jason. Dagne has an opinion about how speech is rendered within a poem: italics or quotation marks. She's team italics, Slushies, which are you? While thinking about the line in these poems; Marion refers to Jason's excellent essay on the history and theory of the line from his book Nothingism: Poetry at the End of Print Culture. Another poem in the batch has Marion recalling Jason's poem “Wester.” As always, thanks for listening! At the table: Dagne Forrest, Samantha Neugebauer, Jason Schneiderman, Kathleen Volk Miller, Marion Wrenn, and Lisa Zerkle Michael Montlack's third poetry collection COSMIC IDIOT will be published by Saturnalia. He is the editor the Lambda Finalist essay anthology My Diva: 65 Gay Men on the Women Who Inspire Them (University of Wisconsin Press). His work has appeared in Poetry Daily, Prairie Schooner, Cincinnati Review, Lit, Epoch, Alaska Quarterly Review, Phoebe and other magazines. In 2022, his poem won the Saints & Sinners Poetry Contest for LGBTQIA+ poets. He lives in NYC and teaches poetry at NYU and CUNY City College. https://www.facebook.com/michael.montlack https://www.instagram.com/michaelmontlack (website) https://www.michaelmontlack.com/ “Your Hair Wants Cutting” my grandmother would say, sitting there at her window, monitoring the restless crows. Her robe nearly as ancient as she. Since when are you concerned with fashion? I once dared to ask. I was seventeen, restless as those crows. I knew she wasn't talking about my curls. Plumage, she used to call it when I was a boy. Sit down, little peacock—your hair wants cutting. Even then I knew it was a cutting remark. Laden. Throwing cold kettle water on my fire. I reminded myself that she was a widow. And was glad that at least I would never cause a woman to suffer such grief. I reminded her how I donned a hat most days. She stared me up and down, her eyes like the ocean's green cold. Clever. Your kind seems to have a clever answer for everything … I swallowed the indictment. Why not make yourself useful, she said, putting down her tea cup, eyeing the trash on her tray. I was glad to oblige, happy to depart before she could notice the low waist of my trousers, let alone the height of my heels. Muchier Picture me on a grand terrace, tipping my hat. Crossing a bridge over the river of defeat— it's definitely a state of ascent. Being owed rather than owing. A blatant triumph against the conventional. A la Lord Byron. A monocle without glass, worn for style. It's an advance for a memoir about a life you haven't yet lived. Bound to be lost on some but admired by all. Likely absent during the lessons on common subjects: Algebra, Classic Literature, Biology. More devoted to the mastery of the quaintest arts: Porcelain, Calligraphy, Tapestry Weaving, Drag. As ephemeral and ethereal as a bubble. It's not something you adopt. It's something that abducts you. Enviers call it utter madness, but the muchiest of the muchier won't even fathom the phrase. Inheritance There wasn't much to leave—my sister, also suspiciously unwed, took the cottage and the wagon. But our mother had insisted that the tea set should be mine. “It's dainty and a bit chipped. Like you,” she chortled on her deathbed. I failed to see the humor but took it just the same. Knowing my sister would likely surrender it to the church, where the nuns might put it to good use but never appreciate its finery, as that would be vanity. I much rather hear my motley chums slurp from it as they sit steeped in my ridiculous riddles. I never admitted how I crafted them at night, alone in bed, in the quiet twilight, the hour I imagined reading bedtime stories to the children I never had. An apprentice son would've been nice, to hand down millinery techniques. Instead I had the ghost of one, there in my workshop, where imaginary fights erupted over whose turn it was to sweep up the felt or sharpen the scissors. Of course, I appeared mad, a much better impression to leave than the riddle of my bachelorhood. Sometimes I wanted to smash the porcelain cups, chuck them at that bloody caterpillar stinking up the forest with his opium. Why not? There was no one to inherit my pittance. No one to be trusted with my legacy… until the appearance of this girl, at once strange yet so familiar. I quite liked her. The way she held her own with me. If ever I had a daughter, I would have wanted her to be as brave as she. Defending the poor Knave of Hearts, accused of stealing the Queen's tarts. There in that courtroom, I almost lost my head but finally found a beneficiary.

Martin is back in the studio and an all out nerf war has started. Ryan has an unpleasant experience that cost Canadian tire money and the 50 foot Indian god has been placed in Brampton. Bill C9 in Canada threatens the show and comedy as a whole and we all might end up in jail for jokes that are interpreted as hate. We find some world record and musical farts on onlyfarts, Luigi Mangione has cooked up his famous pickle Pepsi for Martin and he tries it for the first time to give his review. A school in Ontario is under fire for playing the Arab version of "Oh Canada" on October 7th anniversary and Ryan does another edition of the shock spelling bee to honor Hasan Piker shocking his dog. All this and so much more on episode 497 of Clever Name Podcast

We start the week in Kansas with a new band with a new style that combines Grunge with Funk...GRUNK....their debut song is called STOP and you here it today on The Music of America Podcast

In dieser Folge spreche ich mit Tanja Sauer, Lehrerin, Begabungspädagogin, Gründerin von Clever & Stark und Co-Autorin unseres gemeinsamen neuen Buches „Ist mein Kind hochbegabt?“ (Gräfe & Unzer, 2025), über ein faszinierendes Thema: Hochbegabung – und was sie für das Berufsleben, für Führung und Zusammenarbeit bedeutet. Tanja erklärt, was Hochbegabung wirklich ist (und was nicht), warum viele Hochbegabte gar nicht wissen, dass sie es sind – und was Führungskräfte davon haben, sich mit dem Thema zu beschäftigen. Wir sprechen darüber, wie sich Hochbegabung im Arbeitsalltag zeigen kann – und warum manche Hochbegabte im Beruf „Bremser“ oder „Störenfriede“ wirken, obwohl sie eigentlich Innovationsmotoren sein könnten, mit welche Mythen und Vorurteilen über Hochbegabte endlich mal aufgeräumt gehört, wie du als Führungskraft erkennen kannst, ob du vielleicht selbst – oder jemand in deinem Team – überdurchschnittlich begabt ist, und warum es manchmal schwieriger ist, zu schlau als zu dumm zu führen… Ihnen, Euch und Dir viel Freude und Anregung beim Zuhören!

In Episode 261 of Outside The Round, host Matt Burrill sits down with Alabama native Clever for a genre-spanning conversation that follows his journey from Gadsden to the hip-hop world of Los Angeles and now into the heart of Nashville's creative community. They discuss the rich musical culture of Alabama, his early success in hip-hop, and how transitioning into country music became a natural evolution rather than a pivot. Clever opens up about balancing family life with a demanding career, the importance of collaboration, and staying grounded in an ever-changing industry. With stories from the road, lessons from the business, and reflections on artistic identity, this episode captures Clever's unique voice and vision as he celebrates the release of his new album Coyote, available now on all platforms.

Julia Watson, a landscape architect, author, and educator, developed a passion for global cultures and knowledge as a child in Australia, inspired by her parents' National Geographic collection. She has since dedicated her career to exploring traditional knowledge systems and their application to contemporary design challenges like extreme weather, waste management, and population growth.At the heart of Watson's work is a profound respect for indigenous knowledge systems and a commitment to applying Traditional Ecological Knowledge (TEK) to climate-adaptive design. Through her work with Lo-TEK, including the recently launched Lo-TEK Office for Intercultural Urbanism, and her books, Lo-TEK: Design by Radical Indigenism and the upcoming Lo-TEK Water (November 30 release), she strives to facilitate the equitable exchange and implementation of indigenous knowledge and technology to the crucial and complex challenges of our evolving world.Images, links and more from Julia Watson on our website!Special thanks to our sponsor - Wix Studio is a platform built for all web creators to design, develop, and manage exceptional web projects at scale.Clever is hosted & produced by Amy Devers, with editing by Mark Zurawinski, production assistance from Ilana Nevins and Anouchka Stephan, and music by El Ten Eleven.SUBSCRIBE - listen to Clever on any podcast app!SIGN UP - for our Substack for news, bonus content, new episode alertsVISIT - cleverpodcast.com for transcripts, images, and 200+ more episodesSAY HI! - on Instagram & LinkedIn @cleverpodcast @amydeversSpecial thanks to our sponsors!Wix Studio is a platform built for all web creators to design, develop, and manage exceptional web projects at scale.Saily: get an exclusive 15% discount on Saily data plans!

Ryan is living like an African child without water for over a day, we are still getting screwed over by the Canada post strike so we play a game to see what jobs in Canada make less than what the Canada post employees are asking for. We have been banned for Youtube yet again for making fun of Benjamin Netanyahu, Our stock in One pound fish coin is up and we found the completive slur ranking site for Team Fortress 2. We rank some racism with the teacher who sand the monkey song to a black student, dmx getting a crown to yell the n word and students doing black face for a costume. Then we have the the great Soccer vs Football debate, which is is the true sport that should be call "football" and things get heated. All this and some much more on the FULL episode of Clever Name podcast.

For the Glory KC is back with the 149th episode of the show!Sporting Kansas City did what we've been asking for and hired a new President of Soccer Operations. David Lee is in charge of all things soccer over at Sporting KC, and he'll report directly to ownership. That's actually the first (serious) subject on the pod. CSO? PoSO? General Manager? Sporting Director? Technical Director? To quote the former King of the Seven Kingdoms, Robert Baratheon, "titles, titles, titles."On today's, not quite an emergency podcast, we learn about David Lee's professional past, his time with NYCFC and his track record of success.He also comes out of the City Football Group (CFG) empire, so we tell you what the heck that means and what impact that likely had on the resources he had at his disposal and how it could both be benefiting him and limiting him at other times.Sheena and I also weigh in on Lee's history of youth development and a knack for signing young talent. A lot of that is CFG related, but it also could be the direction he decides to take with Sporting KC. There is so much to talk about with Lee, you should probably just download the episode already!As a tease, here are some of the quotes from the media we'll cite around the excitement of the David Lee hire:David Gass: "This is probably better than what I would have guessed is a best-case scenario for SKC.”Tom Bogert: "David Lee joining Sporting KC from NYCFC as CSO is a big move. Impressive by SKC to court and land Lee, as it's rare for a CSO to leave for another CSO role. Lee one of league's respected sporting executives. Gets to rebuild SKC around Dejan Joveljic, Manu Garcia and more."Joe Lowery: "SKC fans should be pleased with the David Lee hire. While it's hard to know how much of NYCFC's success during Lee's time there stemmed from his roster-building vs. CFG's resources, he's got real experience in a recruiting machine."Taylor Twellman: "Smart. Clever. Great Hire from Sporting KC. David Lee is someone who can really get SKC over the hump and his experience with NYCFC in MLS will be invaluable in turning around the franchise in Kansas."Andrew Weibe: "This is truly a great get for Kansas City. Lee has repeatedly hit at every roster designation with his signings (not all HRs, of course, before you get in the mentions). Pascal Jansen has been an A+ managerial hire. NYCFC has been consistently good to excellent under his watch."In the Digital Crawl, we hit on a few more topics, including:MLS Offseason scheduleSKC International call-upsA new job for Peter Vermes?World Cup Ticket Pricesand more!Here is a rundown of topics and start times:Sporting KC hire a CSO - 2:50Digital Crawl - 59:59Upcoming GamesSporting KC @ Minnesota United, Sat.

Fluent Fiction - Hungarian: Autumn's Hidden Jewel: A Wine Lover's Serendipity in Eger Find the full episode transcript, vocabulary words, and more:fluentfiction.com/hu/episode/2025-09-28-22-34-02-hu Story Transcript:Hu: Eger városában, ahol a levelek aranysárgára váltanak, Zsófia a piacon sétált.En: In the city of Eger, where the leaves turn golden yellow, Zsófia was strolling through the market.Hu: A levegő hűvös volt, az ősz jelei mindenhol feltűntek.En: The air was cool, and signs of autumn appeared everywhere.Hu: A kövekkel kirakott utcák tele voltak jellegzetes bódékkal, ahol friss zöldségek és gyümölcsök mellett a helyi borok is csillogtak a napfénytől.En: The cobblestone streets were filled with characteristic stalls, where, alongside fresh vegetables and fruits, local wines glittered in the sunlight.Hu: Zsófia lelkesedése az orrában volt érezhető – a borok iránti szenvedély a szívében.En: Zsófia's enthusiasm could be felt in her breath – a passion for wines was in her heart.Hu: Zsófia a közelgő kóstolóra keresett egy különleges bort, amivel meg tudta lepni kollégáit.En: Zsófia was searching for a special wine for the upcoming tasting, something that could surprise her colleagues.Hu: A piactéri zajban egyszer csak egy bódéhoz ért, ahol egy idős férfi, László, kedvesen mosolygott rá.En: Amid the market noise, she eventually arrived at a stall where an elderly man, László, greeted her with a kind smile.Hu: László évszázadok óta híres borászatot vezetett Egerben, és a környék legselymesebb borai nála lelhetők.En: László had been leading a winery famous for centuries in Eger, and the silkiest wines of the region were found with him.Hu: – Üdvözlöm! Miben segíthetek? – kérdezte László, miközben megigazította kalapját.En: “Hello! How can I help you?” asked László, adjusting his hat.Hu: – Egy különleges bort keresek. Olyat, ami igazán egyedülálló – felelte Zsófia az abban rejlő reménnyel.En: “I'm looking for a special wine. Something truly unique,” replied Zsófia with a hopeful glint.Hu: László bólintott. – Eger sok titkot rejt. Mi a véleménye magáról? Bízik az orrában, vagy a szemeit követi?En: László nodded. “Eger hides many secrets. What do you think about yourself? Do you trust your nose, or do you follow your eyes?”Hu: Zsófia elgondolkodott. Bár sok könyvet olvasott a borokról, a saját megérzéseiben mélyebben hinni vágyott.En: Zsófia pondered. Although she had read many books about wines, she wanted to believe more deeply in her own intuition.Hu: László különféle borokat mutatott neki.En: László showed her various wines.Hu: Zsófia szorgalmasan próbálta felismerni a különbségeket.En: Zsófia diligently tried to recognize the differences.Hu: Minden palack egy új világot nyitott, és Zsófia gyorsan elveszett az ízek kavalkádjában.En: Each bottle opened a new world, and she quickly lost herself in the whirlwind of flavors.Hu: Végül azonban megállt egy szerény címkéjű üveg előtt.En: Eventually, she stopped in front of a bottle with a modest label.Hu: – Ez mi lehet? – kérdezte bizonytalanul.En: “What could this be?” she asked uncertainly.Hu: – Ez ritka. Nem sokan figyelnek rá, de különleges zamatot rejt – mondta László.En: “This is rare. Not many pay attention to it, but it hides a special flavor,” said László.Hu: Zsófia, bízva a megérzésében, eldöntötte, hogy ezt a palackot választja.En: Trusting her intuition, Zsófia decided to choose this bottle.Hu: Megszaglászta, ízlelgette a bor illatát.En: She sniffed and tasted the wine's aroma.Hu: Hirtelen megérezték a mézes, fűszeres jegyeket, amik hirtelen elárasztották érzékeit.En: Suddenly, they sensed the honeyed, spicy notes that suddenly overwhelmed their senses.Hu: – Szegfűszeg? Talán vanília is? – kérdezte kicsit bizonytalanul.En: “Clove? Maybe vanilla too?” she asked a bit uncertainly.Hu: László elmosolyodott. – Ügyes! – mondta elismerően. – Légy büszke, a jó borász a szívével és az orrával dolgozik.En: László smiled. “Clever!” he said appreciatively. “Be proud, a good winemaker works with their heart and nose.”Hu: Zsófia vásárlása után boldogan köszönte meg a lehetőséget.En: After her purchase, Zsófia happily thanked him for the opportunity.Hu: László jókívánságaival az oldalán indult hazafelé.En: With László's good wishes by her side, she headed home.Hu: Tudta, hogy jó választást tett, és megértette, hogy a borok világa nemcsak tudomány, hanem művészet is.En: She knew she had made a good choice and understood that the world of wines is not only a science but also an art.Hu: Ahogy elhagyta a piacot, Zsófia magabiztosabb volt, mint valaha.En: As she left the market, Zsófia was more confident than ever.Hu: A bor a színek, ízek és illatok tökéletes kavalkádja volt, amit saját maga fedezett fel.En: The wine was the perfect blend of colors, flavors, and aromas, discovered by her own self.Hu: Hercegszeneválogatásában László kedves szavai visszhangzottak.En: In her selection, László's kind words echoed.Hu: Eger hömpölygő utcáin sétálva az ősz különös varázsát érezte magában, és egy új fejezetet indított el az életében, tele lelkesedéssel és önbizalommal.En: Walking through the winding streets of Eger, she felt the peculiar charm of autumn within her, initiating a new chapter in her life filled with enthusiasm and confidence.

Episode 233 discusses the newest tensions between AI and schools: teenagers using AI companions and alarming incidents tied to platforms like Character.ai that have drawn federal attention. Josh talks about his student MFA pilot using Clever, how onboarding works (and how MFA can be network-aware to reduce classroom friction), and using student-led help desks to test the rollout. The guys discuss a post from Jay on K12TechPro asking about IT leadership background (educators and non‑educators in K12 tech dept roles). The episode's guest is Peter Kaplan from Fortinet, an E‑Rate expert. He breaks down why E‑Rate matters, outlines the FCC's cybersecurity pilot (challenges with procurement, reporting, and evaluating success), and discusses gaps left by potential MS‑ISAC funding changes. He also highlights CISA's K12 resources and Fortinet's no‑cost cybersecurity awareness materials for schools.

Cas Holman grew up playing make-believe in the woods and helping her mechanic step-dad fix cars and dune buggies. Always knowing that she didn't check the stereotypical gender boxes, she never gave any of the other arbitrary “boxes” much credit either, instead preferring to focus on the outside-the-box possibilities that could be accessed through play, curiosity, and exploration. While getting her MFA, she began working on Geemo, a building toy, which kicked-off her life's mission of designing for play. Since then, she's established herself as a champion of open-ended play, designing notable play systems like Rigamajig. She's worked with global business leaders to incorporate play into company culture, leading to more innovative outcomes, greater trust and safety, and improved resilience. With her upcoming book, Playful, she is on a campaign to help adults reconnect with play throughout their lives because she knows, and has the research and science to prove it, that with play we ALL become more creative, joyful, and productive.

HEADLINE: EU Schemes to Fund Ukraine with Frozen Russian Assets, While Oil Prices Fluctuate GUEST NAME: Michael Bernstam SUMMARY: The EU devises a "clever scheme" to fund Ukraine with Russia's frozen assets by converting cash into zero-interest bonds held by Euroclear, effectively confiscating the funds while navigating legal obstacles, as global oil markets remain volatile. The EU and G7 plan to use $170 billion of frozen Russian assets, largely held by Euroclear in Belgium, to fund Ukraine. This "confiscation" involves the European Union issuing zero-interest bonds to Euroclear, allowing cash to be transferred to Ukraine as an unpayable loan. Meanwhile, Brent crude oil prices fluctuate, influenced by sanctions and Trump's calls to stop buying Russian oil. 1907 OSTEND
