Of course, you will remember meeting Commissioner James Betts in our first episode of the year, in which we introduced him as the new Territorial Commander in the West. Today, we're sharing a message from him, delivered just recently during the Welcome and Installation service held February 14 at the Tustin Ranch Corps in California. Drawing from Romans 12, Commissioner Betts challenges us to move beyond forgiveness alone and into a life of daily surrender—a life shaped by unity, holiness and transforming love. In a world quick to divide and slow to trust, this message calls us back to the refining fire of God's mercy and the joy that comes from laying our lives fully before him. As you listen, we pray you would be encouraged, challenged and renewed—and that the joy of the Lord would strengthen you for the season ahead. Here now is Commissioner James Betts with his message, "Transforming Love." EPISODE SHOWNOTES: Read more. BE AFFIRMED. Get the Good Words email series. FIND YOUR STORY. Get the email course.

London Fire Brigade protects one of the most complex urban environments on the planet. The resident population of London sits at around 9 million people, but that number is misleading. On a typical weekday, when commuters, tourists, and transient populations are added in, the number of people moving through the city regularly swells to 11 to 12 million, sometimes more during major events or peak travel periods.Around a quarter of all fire and rescue service calls in the UK come into London. Around 70% of the UK's high rise residential stock sits within the M25. This is not just a big fire brigade. It's a service operating at global city scale, with global city risk.In this episode, I sit down with Jonathan Smith, Commissioner of London Fire Brigade, to talk honestly about what it takes to lead a service like that in today's operating environment.We start with Jonathan's journey into the fire service, from training and operational life through promotion and leadership, but this is not a career timeline conversation. It's a working discussion about responsibility, decision making, and pressure at scale.We talk about training and professional standards, what was lost after the early 2000s, and what it really means to professionalise a modern fire service. We explore high rise firefighting in London, lessons learned from Grenfell, and how evacuation, control, and operational command have fundamentally changed over the last decade.This conversation deliberately looks beyond a single service or even a single country. We frame London alongside other global cities like New York, Paris, and Tokyo, because the risks London faces don't stop at national borders. Climate change, lithium battery fires, terrorism, urban density, and geopolitical tension all show up on the streets of this city, and the fire service has to be ready for that reality.We also talk culture, not as a buzzword, but as lived behaviour. Leadership, accountability, psychological safety, and what it actually takes to create an organisation where people can do their best work without fear or silence. And finally, we zoom in on the personal cost of leadership, resilience, and how you stay grounded when the stakes are this high.This is a grounded, boots on the ground conversation about the future of firefighting, leadership in complex systems, and how our profession can continue to shape its own destiny. Access all episodes, documents, GIVEAWAYS & debriefs HEREPodcast Apparel, Hoodies, Flags, Mugs HERE our partners supporting this episode.GORE-TEX Professional ClothingFIRST TACTICAL- tactical gear for elite operatorsMSA The Safety CompanyJAFCOIDEXFIRE & EVACUATION SERVICE LTD Send a textSupport the show***The views expressed in this episode are those of the individual speakers.

Content warning: This Episode of Doin' Time contains audio images of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people who have died, and graphic discussion of deaths in custody. Today on the show we were first joined by Samantha Lee, Assistant Principal Solicitor at Redfern Legal Centre about NSW Police's response to the Palestine Action Group rally in Sydney calling for an independent review of NSW Police conduct. Redfern Legal Centre calls on the Commissioner of the New South Wales Police Force, Mal Lanyon, to stand down officers whose use of force at the protest appears excessive, based on the available footage.Following that, Marisa interviewed David Murray, Strategic Projects Lead from Jesuit Social Services, about the expansion of Malmsbury Youth Justice Centre -- which is a significant investment at the wrong end of the system, using money that would be far better spent on evidence-based solutions that prevent crime from occurring.Then we heard from Katie Kiss, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Social Justice Commissioner to discuss a new bill to establish a National Commission for First Peoples children, which is welcomed by top human rights advocates. Katie is a proud Kaanju and Birri/Widi woman who grew up in Rockhampton, Central Queensland, on the lands of the Darumbal people.

Nick Saban as college football's commissioner? Brian Smith lays out a bold vision for saving the sport, arguing only a leader of Saban's reputation can restore order amid NIL, transfer portal chaos, and rampant tampering. Drawing parallels to the NFL's disciplined approach, the show proposes automatic penalties—scholarship losses, hefty fines, and strict transfer rules—to end the current “wild west” era. Key topics include enforceable rules for NIL collectives, revenue sharing discrepancies (with examples like LSU's big signing class and Nike's NIL-sponsored programs), and playoff expansion rumors swirling between the SEC and Big Ten. Brian Smith explores potential leadership dream teams, including Urban Meyer, Don Staley, and even NFL executives, insisting that political interference only breeds bias. Is college football ready for real accountability—or will the chaos continue? Don't miss this provocative take on the future of the sport.

The California Department of Insurance regulates the insurance industry, with consumer protection as its core tenet. The insurance commissioner heads the Department of Insurance, managing more than 1,400 employees and overseeing 1,600 insurance companies. Ricardo Lara, the current commissioner, has faced increasingly challenging circumstances. Devastating wildfires in 2017, 2018, 2020, 2021 and 2025 have burned tens of thousands of homes; 7 of California's 12 top insurers have pulled back from the California market since Lara took office in 2019. Meanwhile, the California FAIR Plan—the state-run public home insurance program designed to be the “insurer of last resort”—has more than doubled its policyholders between 2019 and 2023, due to the difficulty faced by homeowners of finding suitable coverage on the private market. As a result of the dramatic increase in policyholders, the FAIR Plan faced financial insolvency in 2023 and 2025, resulting in a $1 billion bailout from private insurers to cover claims. Additionally, critics say major insurance companies have continuously underestimated the payouts for homeowners in the case of total loss. In recent years, most people who have experienced a major fire have found out that their insurance will not pay them enough to rebuild. For consumers, these growing problems mean higher premiums where coverage is available, fewer insurer choices, stricter underwriting standards, and, in some cases, an inability to obtain comprehensive coverage at all. Homeowners in high-risk areas are increasingly pushed into bare-bones policies or layered coverage solutions. In March 2025, for the first time in California history, the California insurance commissioner approved emergency, interim rate hikes designed to stabilize State Farm after immense financial strain from the LA wildfires. These hikes averaged 17 percent for homeowners, 15 percent for renters/condos, and up to 38 percent for rental dwellings. Experts say that the next insurance commissioner will inherit a growing crisis in which nearly all the proposed solutions are likely to cost consumers.

What does it really take to speak up when something doesn't feel right, especially in systems that quietly reward compliance and silence?In this episode of the Sacred Changemakers Podcast, I'm joined by Dr. Sunita Sah, award-winning Cornell professor, organizational psychologist, and one of the world's leading researchers on authority, compliance, and defiance. Dr Sah's work challenges the idea that defiance is disruptive or extreme, reframing it instead as a grounded act of integrity and courage.We explore why good people so often go along with things they don't agree with, how subtle psychological forces like Insinuation Anxiety shape our behavior, and why compliance is not a personal failing but a deeply human response to pressure. Dr Sah shares insights from her research, her background in medicine and systems leadership, and the practical frameworks she's developed to help people move from inner knowing to ethical action.This is a rich, illuminating conversation for coaches, leaders, and changemakers who sense that something essential is lost when we stay silent, and who want to reclaim their agency without becoming combative, burned out, or disconnected from their values.About Dr. Sunita SahDr. Sunita Sah is an award-winning, tenured professor at Cornell University and a leading expert in organizational psychology. A trained physician who practiced medicine in the UK, she has also worked as a management consultant and served as a Commissioner on the National Commission on Forensic Science.
