In this episode of the XS Noize Podcast, Mark Millar is joined by Robert Arkins, best known to millions as Jimmy Rabbitte in Alan Parker's classic 1991 film The Commitments. Robert looks back on life before the film, his musical roots, fronting his own band Housebroken, and how his sister first introduced him to Roddy Doyle's book. He reflects on why he initially saw The Commitments as a possible distraction from his music, before becoming the face and voice of one of the most beloved music films ever made. In this warm and honest conversation, Robert talks about working with Alan Parker, finding Jimmy Rabbitte's natural Dublin rhythm, the humour and energy that still make the film resonate, and the moment he realised The Commitments had become much bigger than just a film. He also shares brilliant behind-the-scenes stories from the shoot, including Van Morrison auditioning for Joey "The Lips," memories of the famous bath scene, Johnny Murphy's motorbike mishap, and what fans still say to him more than three decades later. The conversation also goes deeper into what happened after The Commitments — the pressure of sudden fame, travelling to Los Angeles, signing to MCA, working on an unfinished Housebroken album, and the frustration of being recognised as Jimmy Rabbitte when he wanted to be seen as an artist in his own right. Now, Robert is returning to the music with Robert Arkins' Commitments, marking the 35th anniversary of The Commitments with UK and Ireland shows. He talks about bringing those songs back to the stage, adding Detroit and Northern Soul into the live set, and why the audience energy still reminds him of watching the film with a crowd. At its heart, this episode is about music, identity, second chances, and what happens when one role follows you for the rest of your life. Listen to the full episode now.

Miami Hurricanes land high-upside recruit Jayvon Dawson, igniting buzz about a return to classic South Florida recruiting dominance. Can this under-the-radar edge rusher become Miami's next NFL-bound defensive star? Brian Smith breaks down why Dawson, a versatile talent from Santaluces Community High School, could be a major steal despite modest rankings, and examines Mario Cristobal's evolving strategy to target local gems. Nationwide, recruiting heats up as Indiana, Florida State, Arizona State, and others score key commitments—including top-100 tackle Jake Hildebrand and quarterback Logan Flaherty. The conversation spans the impact of NIL on official visits, Clemson's exceptional hit rate with its late May recruiting weekend, and the shifting landscape in the ACC as Florida State struggles to keep pace with Miami's talent haul. Listener questions spark debate over recruiting tactics, outlandish stunts, and whether Miami could assemble the top secondary in the 2027 class.

Episode 247: We tend to think of freedom as an unquestioned good. More opportunities, more flexibility and more control over our lives all sound like obvious signs of progress. But what happens when endless possibilities stop feeling liberating and start feeling exhausting? In this episode, hosts Richard Kyte and Scott Rada explore the surprising ways modern abundance can leave people feeling anxious, distracted and stuck. From choosing paint colors and online purchases to navigating careers, relationships and major life decisions, the conversation examines why having nearly unlimited options does not always produce greater happiness. The discussion begins with a simple observation: many people spend enormous amounts of time trying to make the “perfect” decision, only to feel uncertain even after making a choice. Instead of helping people feel confident, endless possibilities can create paralysis, second-guessing and the constant fear that a better alternative is still out there. Kyte argues that limits are not always obstacles to freedom. In many cases, they are what make meaningful action possible in the first place. Rules create games. Deadlines produce work. Commitments shape relationships. Without boundaries, people often drift between possibilities without fully investing in any of them. Rada reflects on how routines and self-imposed constraints can simplify daily life and reduce mental clutter. Whether it is making soup every Sunday during winter or relying on a small set of paint colors instead of thousands of options, narrowing possibilities can free people to focus less on choosing and more on living. The episode also explores the role of external constraints, including deadlines, obligations and social expectations. While people often resist being told what to do, the hosts discuss why outside pressure frequently helps individuals accomplish things they might otherwise postpone indefinitely.

Send us Fan MailYour volunteers are giving something money can't buy, and most nonprofits are treating that gift like an afterthought. When you start seeing volunteers through the same lens as major donors, the way you recruit, steward, and engage them completely changes. And when you connect volunteerism to your broader fundraising and governance pipeline, you stop treating it as a nice-to-have and start building something that actually lasts.On this week's episode of The Small Nonprofit Podcast, Maria sits down with Karen Leies, President and CEO of The Seeing Eye, the world's oldest guide dog school, to talk about what it really means to run a volunteer program well. With 500+ puppy raisers a year, a robust volunteer program, and a board of directors that often wears multiple hats, Karen brings hard-won insight on how nonprofits can stop leaving volunteer potential on the table. If you've ever struggled to keep volunteers engaged, convert their involvement into deeper commitment, or get your board to actually show up — this one's for you.Connect with Karen on LinkedIn Visit their website: https://seeingeye.org/If this episode was useful, grab the 30-Day Board Fundraising Challenge at gofurthertogether.ca/boardchallenge — it's free and it gives your board actual structure.

What actually creates a peaceful life?In this teaching on Psalm 15, John Ortberg explores the ancient biblical vision of an “unshakable” life — a life rooted in goodness, grace, truth, and the presence of God.Psalm 15 asks:“Who may dwell on your holy mountain?”The answer turns out to be both beautiful and deeply challenging.Along the way, John reflects on:Why peace is more than a feelingThe connection between character and stabilityGossip, envy, greed, ego, and emotional formationPositive psychology and virtueWhat kind of people we become through daily choicesWhy “the good life is with God”This episode is practical, thoughtful, convicting, and hopeful all at once.Scriptures:Psalm 15Matthew 6:33Luke 23:39–43#Psalm15 #JohnOrtberg #Prayer #SpiritualFormation #ChristianFaith #Peace #Character #BibleStudy #Psalms #formation 

In this solo episode of Million Dollar Flip Flops, Rodric breaks down a hard truth most builders and business owners try to avoid:Your business is a mirror — and it never lies.If your home building business (and life) feel stuck, it's not “just the market.” It's a reflection of how you show up in the world: your commitments, your money habits, your leadership, how you learn, how you communicate, and how you grow.Rodric walks through 6 categories — and roughly 30 mirror moments — that quietly shape your results:

One of Ireland's best loved writers, Roddy Doyle is in NZ for the Auckland Writer's Festival. He pops into the studio to speak with Susie ahead of his first appearance this afternoon.

Scott talks with Aran Khanna, co-founder and CEO of Archera, about a new category of cloud financial tooling: "Insured Commitments."

They get into the economics of cloud purchasing, how AI workloads are changing capacity planning, and what FinOps looks like in 2026. http://archera.ai

Mukhtar Kadiri: Why Success Means Nothing If the Project Doesn't Move the Business Forward — And How Public Commitments Keep You Honest Read the full Show Notes and search through the world's largest audio library on Agile and Scrum directly on the Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast website: http://bit.ly/SMTP_ShowNotes.   "If you're not careful with success, you can deliver a project, but the project will really not do much for the business." - Mukhtar Kadiri   For Mukhtar, success is personal — he's the kind of project leader who gets emotionally invested, who thinks about the project after hours, who needs recovery time between engagements. And that emotional investment shapes how he defines success: not as hitting deadlines or completing tasks, but as delivering real business value. He breaks success metrics into three buckets using his signature rule of three: business and product metrics (NPS, revenue, market penetration), project management metrics (velocity, burn-down, risk scores), and software and system metrics (availability, transactions per second, platform health). But the real insight is in how he holds himself accountable. Mukhtar makes public commitments at the start of every project — "Expect status updates from me every week" — because he knows that the discipline of narrating the project's story every week forces him to truly understand what's happening. A status report isn't bureaucratic busywork when you approach it as storytelling: you have to make sense of the data, surface what's relevant, and articulate where the project actually stands. If you can't tell the story, something's missing from your understanding. That weekly narrative becomes both an accountability mechanism and an early warning system.   Self-reflection Question: Can you tell the story of your project right now — not just the tasks completed, but the narrative of where it stands, why, and what that means for the business? Featured Retrospective Format for the Week: What Worked / What Didn't Work / Next Steps Mukhtar is a firm believer in simplicity, and his favorite retrospective format reflects that — the classic "What worked, what didn't work, and next steps." He applies his rule of three here as well: three categories are easy for humans to hold in their heads, removing cognitive overhead so the team can focus on the conversation itself. But Mukhtar is quick to point out that a simple structure can still produce terrible retrospectives. What matters more is the facilitation: making sure people feel safe at the very start, level-setting so participants can "land" into the retrospective after jumping from another meeting, giving everyone a moment of quiet introspection to write things down before discussion begins — ensuring both quiet and loud voices are heard. He prepares for every retrospective because, as he puts it, "if you run a bad retro, you could do damage to your team morale and your project." Active facilitation — watching for who isn't speaking, encouraging quieter voices, managing tone — is what transforms a simple format into a powerful conversation.   [The Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast Recommends]

A new report from Family Carers Ireland has found the Government has failed to fully deliver on any of its 34 commitments to family carers in its first year in office. The charity says, in some cases, supports have actually worsened—with growing delays for assessments, reduced access to services, and increasing pressure on families already stretched to their limits. To discuss the findings and what they mean for carers here in Clare and North Tipperary, Alan Morrissey was joined by Care Support Manager Vicky Ward.

In this episode of the XS Noize Podcast, Mark Millar is joined by Glen Hansard for a warm, honest and deeply reflective conversation about his new live album, Don+t Settle - (Vol 1 Transmissions East). Recorded at Berlin's historic Funkhaus with his road-hardened live band, the album brings together songs from Glen's solo career, The Frames and The Swell Season, captured with almost no fixes. Rather than a standard live album or greatest-hits collection, Don+t Settle - (Vol 1 Transmissions East) feels like an artist taking stock in the present — revisiting songs from different stages of his life and finding new meaning in them. Glen talks about the rain-soaked show in The Hague that sparked the idea, bringing the audience onto the stage, reintroducing himself as a rock musician, and why the rawness and imperfections of the performances were essential to the record. The conversation also goes far beyond the new album. Glen reflects on writing "Didn't He Ramble" for his father, why "Carrickfergus" made the record, the Bob Dylan cassette that changed his life, and what busking taught him about holding an audience. He also looks back on The Commitments, Once, being recognised as Outspan in the street, Bob Dylan phoning after his Oscar win, and the growth of Dublin's Christmas Eve Busk. It's a generous, open and thoughtful conversation about music, family, memory, performance, and why this new chapter feels less like looking back and more like planting a flag in the present.

When requests for your time, energy, or talent stop being a blessing and start being a burden, it is time to reevaluate. In this episode, Lisa shares how she stopped being overwhelmed by her commitments. Hoping people will stop asking you to do things isn't the solution. You want to be in demand. The key to overcoming these challenges is discernment. Decision-making is a skill. When you overload your schedule, you overload your mind. It is easy to say yes because you want to be valued and you want to be helpful. The problem is your communication. If you aren't clear on the details of your decision, you don't understand the full ramifications of that commitment and end up operating past your capacity. Yes is not a complete sentence. If you struggle with overcommitment, this episode is for you. Learn what happens when you stop blindly agreeing and how a different approach can eliminate unnecessary stress in your life.  

In this episode, I talk about the importance of finding reasons to keep your commitments instead of finding reasons to break them.

GoVols247's Ben McKee and Patrick Brown break down the TWO latest commitment for the Tennessee basketball program -- one out of the transfer portal and another for the 2026 recruiting class. Four-star forward Christopher Washington Jr., a top-50 national prospect and the No. 1 player in the state of Tennessee (out of Murfreesboro) committed to the Vols on Thursday. Ben broke down how the Vols landed the one-time Alabama commitment and reveals what his outlook is as a freshman. Could he be an immediate impact player for Tennessee's overhauled roster? Then we discussed the latest four-star portal pickup for Tennessee in Notre Dame transfer combo guard Jalen Haralson, who chose the Vols over North Carolina and Ohio State after his visit this week. Ben then focuses on the next two big portal targets for Rick Barnes: Terrence Hill Jr. (VCU) and Juke Harris (Wake Forest). Where does stand with both? What will Barnes do with the remaining roster spots with (for now) four recruits and four transfers coming in?

Robust disease surveillance systems are the foundation of strong public health systems and are essential to preventing, detecting, and responding to health threats before they escalate. Commitments to and investments in quality disease surveillance systems are key to smart, cost-effective public health decision-making, which is needed more than ever. Before the Outbreak is a three-part podcast series produced in partnership between Global Dispatches and the United Nations Foundation, in which we explore how the world sees, anticipates, and prepares for current and emerging health threats. Through stories and science, this series highlights the critical functions that protect us – before the outbreak begins. Our debut episode features the expertise of Dr. Ciro Ugarte, Director of Health Emergencies at the Pan American Health Organization, and Dr. Pardis Sabeti, a professor at Harvard University's School of Public Health. We begin by defining our terms—that is, what do we mean by disease surveillance? We then discuss how disease surveillance works in practice and what can be done to strengthen our global defenses against the next pandemic.

Commitments are important. Consistency matters. Learning matters. But your family is also a commitment
