Story of the Week (DR):War against women continues: Uber Not Responsible for Sex Assault, Jury Finds, as More Cases FollowEthan P. Schulman, the judge presiding over the California state court cases, told jurors that Uber would be responsible for the woman's harm if the company was negligent in using adequate safety measures and the negligence was a “substantial factor” in causing the harm.In its decision, the jury unanimously agreed that Uber had been negligent in its general safety practices when the incident occurred in 2016 — but that the negligence was not a substantial factor in causing the attack. The jury's foreman: “We felt that they could have done more back in the early days of Uber, rather than just focusing on growth,”Meet Lisa Monaco, the 57-year-old Microsoft executive Trump wants fired“Corrupt and Totally Trump Deranged Lisa Monaco (A purported pawn of Legal Lightweight Andrew Weissmann), was a senior National Security aide under Barack Hussein Obama. Monaco has been shockingly hired as the President of Global Affairs for Microsoft, in a very senior role with access to Highly Sensitive Information. Monaco's having that kind of access is unacceptable, and cannot be allowed to stand.”Monaco helped coordinate the Justice Department's response to the Jan. 6th attacks on the U.S. Capitol by Trump supporters in 2021. In January 2022, Monaco publicly announced that the Justice Department was investigating the Trump fake electors plotMilitary women fear losing 'every bit of ground' as Hegseth looks backward to the 1990sDefense Secretary Pete Hegseth said Tuesday that he wants to review Defense Department standards that have changed since the 1990s, a time when military women saw far less support for their service and met drastically lower physical standards than today: "The 1990s test is simple. What were the military standards in 1990? And if they have changed, tell me why. Was it necessary change based on the evolving landscape of combat? Or was the change due to a softening, weakening, or gender-based pursuit of other priorities? 1990s seems to be as good a place to start as any."PGA of America CEO apologizes for Ryder Cup missteps, but group's president denies problemThe Misogynistic Abuse Towards Rory McIlroy's Wife at the Ryder Cup Is Deeper Than Golf. It shows a cultural shift, one in which men feel emboldened to attack women in public without shame or consequence. The abuse and taunts were so unrelenting that Stoll was spotted with “tears streaming down her face”PGA of America President Don Rea took a different approach on Sunday in a BBC interview where he downplayed the severity of the crowd's behavior: “Well, you have 50,000 people there that are really excited, and heck, you can go to a youth soccer game and get some people who say the wrong things,” Rea said. When asked about the abuse directed at McIlroy, he responded, “I haven't heard some of that. I'm sure it's happened … Rory understands things like that are going to happen.”Fake billionaire manbaby “retirements” continue DRSpotify CEO Daniel Ek to Step Down.

Aaron Schwartz is the Co-founder and Co-CEO of Orita.ai, a software company that improves email deliverability. He is also an advisor and investor in various commerce tech companies, including Passport and EcoCart. Previously, Aaron built and managed the DTC brand Modify Watches and was the President of Loop. In this episode… Email remains a core channel for reaching customers, but brands often misuse it. As customer acquisition costs climb and competition intensifies, many brands resort to blasting their audiences with more campaigns, only to see engagement fall and customers unsubscribe. How can companies harness smarter strategies to keep customers engaged without burning them out? According to eCommerce veteran Aaron Schwartz, the answer lies in data-driven retention marketing. Over-sending emails may provide a short-term lift, but ultimately damages deliverability and customer trust. By tapping into customer behavior data, brands can determine when someone actually wants to hear from them, creating more meaningful engagement. Shifting from a marketer's mindset to a consumer's perspective — and using modern analytics instead of outdated rules of thumb — can transform email, SMS, and direct mail into profitable retention channels. In this episode of The Digital Deep Dive, Aaron Conant talks with Aaron Schwartz, Co-founder and Co-CEO of Orita.ai, about retention marketing best practices. Aaron discusses why brands must move past intuition and embrace data, how machine learning enables smarter segmentation, and why balancing timing with customer preferences drives higher ROI.

A conversation on nuclear's next wave with Giordano Morichi of Terra Innovatum and Gus Garcia of GSR III Acquisition Corp. (NASDAQ: GSRT) Developers of small, modular nuclear reactors have been among the most prized stocks of 2025 given their potential to be big players in the energy mix as data center demand booms. This demand is massive, but when it comes to nuclear reactor design, Terra Innovatum believes it's a matter of the smaller the better. This week, we speak with Giordano Morichi, Chief Business Development Officer and Head of Investor Relations at Terra Innovatum, and Gus Garcia, Co-CEO of GSR III Acquisition Corp. (NASDAQ:GSRT). The two announced a $475 million business combination April and are now nearing the end of their merger process. Giordano explains why the unique size of Terra Innovatum's 1 MW reactor designs make it a more competitive fit for a host of applications, and how its fuel source could get it to market faster initially and more efficiently over time. Gus gets into how these factors have the potential to compound Terra Innovatum's advantages and why the major gains made by the company's listed peers has made its valuation even more attractive since the deal was struck.

What if clean energy wasn't just about powering our homes, but about powering opportunity? My guest today believes renewable energy can be the bridge to economic justice, workforce empowerment, and a more inclusive future. On this episode of the Climate Correction Podcast, I'm joined by Erica Mackie, P.E., co-founder and Co-CEO of GRID Alternatives, the nonprofit that has turned solar into a tool for community transformation. From day one, Erica has led GRID's growth into a national force—bringing renewable energy technology and job training directly to underserved communities. Along the way, she's collected some of the most prestigious awards in environmental leadership, but her true focus is on impact: lowering energy bills, cutting carbon emissions, and opening doors to life-changing careers. We'll explore: Why clean energy and gender equity are more connected than you think. How GRID is doubling down on equity and inclusion even as those programs are being rolled back nationally. The ways workforce training in renewable energy is creating wealth-building opportunities that ripple through entire communities. Real stories of people whose lives have been changed when access to solar power and job training collided. The data that proves GRID's impact—from gigawatts installed to jobs created. And what's next: from localized solutions like transportation electrification to the bold plans GRID has for scaling across the country. If you've ever wondered how renewable energy can move beyond rooftop panels and into the heart of social and economic justice—this conversation will open your eyes.

The most successful enterprises are about to become autonomous — and Eléonore Crespo, Co-CEO of Pigment, is building the nervous system that makes it possible. In this conversation, Eléonore reveals how her $400 million AI platform is already running supply chains for Coca-Cola, powering finance for the hottest newly public companies like Figma and Klarna, and processing thousands of financial scenarios for Uber and Snowflake faster and more accurately than any human team ever could.Eléonore predicts Excel will outlive most AI companies (but maybe only as a user interface, not a calculation engine) explains why she deliberately chose to build from Paris instead of Silicon Valley, and shares her contrarian take on why the AI revolution will create more CFOs, not fewer.You'll discover why Pigment's three-agent system (Analyst, Modeler, Planner) avoids the hallucination problems plaguing other AI companies, how they achieved human-level accuracy in financial analysis, and the accelerating timeline for fully autonomous enterprise planning that will make your current workforce obsolete.PigmentWebsite - https://www.pigment.comTwitter - https://x.com/gopigmentEléonore CrespoLinkedIn - linkedin.com/in/eleonorecrespoFIRSTMARKWebsite - https://firstmark.comTwitter - https://twitter.com/FirstMarkCapMatt Turck (Managing Director)LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/turck/Twitter - https://twitter.com/mattturck(00:00) Intro (01:22) Building Pigment: 500 Employees, $400M Raised, 60% US Revenue (03:20) From Quantum Physics to Google to Index Ventures (06:56) Why Being a VC Was the Perfect Founder Training Ground (11:35) The Impatience Factor: What Makes Great Founders (13:27) Hiring for AI Fluency in the Modern Enterprise (14:54) Pigment's Internal AI Strategy: Committees and Guardrails (17:30) The Three AI Agents: Analyst, Modeler, and Planner (22:15) Why Three Agents Instead of One: Technical Architecture (24:10) Agent Coordination: How the Supervisor Agent Works (24:46) Real Example: Budget Variance Analysis Across 50 Products (27:15) The Human-in-the-Loop Approach: Recommendations Not Actions (27:36) Solving Hallucination: Why Structured Data Changes Everything (30:08) Behind the Scenes: Verification Agents and Audit Trails (31:57) Beyond Accuracy: Enabling the Impossible at Scale (36:21) Will AI Finally Kill Excel?

When it comes to recognizable icons, few rival Nike's Swoosh, designed by student designer Carolyn Davidson for $35. We unpack her quiet career, late recognition, and lasting influence with guest Sarah Williams, Co-CEO of Beardwood & Co. and President of AIGA NY._______Support this podcast with a small donation: Buy Me A CoffeeThis show is powered by branding and design studio  Nice PeopleJoin this podcast and the Patreon community: patreon.com/womendesignersyoushouldknowHave a 1:1 mentor call with Amber Asay: intro.co/amberasay_______About Carolyn Davidson:We're pulling back the curtain on one of design's most enduring marks: the Nike Swoosh. In 1971, Portland State University student Carolyn Davidson sketched a fluid, wing-like “stripe” directly over a shoe drawing—a fast, simple symbol that Phil Knight didn't love at first but chose under production pressure. She invoiced $35, kept freelancing for the scrappy company as it rebranded from Blue Ribbon Sports to Nike, and later stepped away from the spotlight. Years afterward, Nike surprised her with a gold Swoosh ring and stock—an act of overdue recognition that grew to life-changing value. We trace Davidson's process, her broader early contributions beyond the logo, and how the Swoosh eventually stood alone without the wordmark. About Sarah Williams:Sarah Williams is Co-CEO of Beardwood & Co. and President of AIGA New York. She joined Beardwood early (2006) after starting at Landor and rose to co-owner, leading brand programs for companies like Danone and Colgate while advancing mentorship and access across the NYC design community.Follow Sarah:Instagram: @_sarah_aw_Beardwood & Co Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/beardwoodco/https://beardwood.com/ ____View all the visually rich 1-min reels of each woman on IG below:Instagram: Amber AsayInstagram: Women Designers Pod

How can mentoring lead to a whole new career? How do dinner conversations and AI come together to drive entrepreneurship? How are some people changing the world as they change gears? Talk about REINVENTION! Well, I did. Meet two more honorees of the Folio: awards named to the Hall of Fame, in this "two-fer" episode on Doug Olson and David Adler, both of whom have gone from being presidents of publishing companies to reinventing themselves...and parts of the industry. First up: Doug Olson. Doug went from a career in the tech side to the publishing side, ultimately running Meredith Magazines (think: "Time," "People," "Better Homes & Gardens"...) to NOW hangin' with the digital natives doing bling-meets-social media, as Co-CEO of "Bomb Party," with its TikTok-famous jewelry reveals! Bet you didn't see THAT coming. Creating Partnerships He discusses the evolution of Meredith, its major acquisitions, the partnership he headed with Walmart, and how Meredith navigated its own transition -- adding digital to print media. "Reveals" on TikTok Doug also describes his transition to #BombParty, a thriving and unique jewelry company that uses social media to engage customers.    Then there's David Adler. I cannot even keep track of all the ways David has reinvented himself: from launching a magazine on DC society back in the 70s, which he sold 10 years later for a handy profit -- and is now turning those archival images into songs and content! I kid you not. But wait, there's more. He helmed big PR shops, but is perhaps best know for founding one of the best magazines on events, called "BizBash." And now? SO MUCH -- from recently launching an online events mag, "GatheringPoint.news" to yet another startup. gatheringoint.news He highlights how he is an unabashed #AI acolyte and explains how it has revolutionized his latest ventures, supporting creative storytelling and increased efficiency. But David is also stopping to smell "The Roses", making the most of his author father's legacy by helping enable that current box office hit! from "The Roses" Like roses themselves, these guests exemplify the concept of 'perennials,' described by David as individuals who continuously evolve and remain curious, regardless of generational labels. Their stories illustrate the importance of adaptability, lifelong learning, and embracing new technologies in media or just for mental well-being!
