In this episode, I shares the real story behind building a sustainable hard-goods brand in the pet industry, unpacking the engineering, manufacturing, certification, and financial trade-offs that most people never see. From design constraints and material decisions to B Corp, 1% for the Planet, and sustainability reporting, this is an honest founder-level look at what it actually takes to balance environmental ambition with business reality, and why sustainability is a discipline, not a label.Timestamps to relevant points within the episode, use this format:[00:00] The Question Most Consumers Never Ask[02:10] From Sustainability Advisor to Bootstrapped Founder[04:45] Progress vs Perfection in Sustainable Business[07:30] The 4-Pillar Sustainability Framework (Environment, People, Economy, Culture)[10:15] Why Sustainability Lives in Engineering Constraints[12:00] Designing for Longevity (And the Business Model Tension)[14:20] Care-Centered Design & Piper's Physiotherapy Moment[16:30] Material Trade-Offs: Why Bamboo Wasn't the Right Choice[19:00] Certifications Explained: What Actually Matters[21:30] 1% for the Planet & Financial Accountability[23:10] FSC Packaging, REACH & Compliance[24:45] B Corp: Why It's Not a Day One Certification[26:30] Sustainability Reporting & Measurement[27:40] Why Profit Is Oxygen in Sustainable Business[29:00] Celebrating Brands That Are Doing the Work[30:00] Final Thoughts & Community InvitationLinks from the episodes:1% for the PlanetPrevious Mama Earth Talk Episode with the CEO of 1% for the Planet, Kate WilliamsPet Sustainability CoalitionB Corp CertificationForest Stewardship Council (FSC) ISO 14001 Environmental Management SystemsCradle to Cradle CertificationMama Earth Talk Online CourseKey Takeaways:• Sustainable product development is not theoretical, it's constrained by tooling costs, manufacturing realities, minimum order quantities, and cash flow.• A structured sustainability framework (Environment, People, Economy, Culture) is your decision-making filter when trade-offs get hard.• Perfection can become paralysis, progress with sequencing is often more impactful than waiting for “100% sustainable.”• Sustainability in hard goods lives in engineering decisions, not marketing language.• Designing for longevity reduces waste, but can reduce repeat purchases. That's a business model tension founders must face.• The “most sustainable-looking” material isn't always the most appropriate one. Context matters.• Certifications are validation layers, not starting point, they should align with operational readiness and financial stability.• Material compliance (FDA, REACH, BPA-free) is foundational and often more important than flashy badges.• Sustainability reporting turns intention into measurement, and measurement drives accountability.• Profit isn't the enemy of sustainability, it's oxygen. Without financial viability, environmental ambition can collapses.• Transparency builds trust when it shows process, not perfection.• Celebrating brands that are doing the structural work shifts incentives across the industry.• Sustainability isn't a label, it's an ongoing discipline.

In this week's episode, we look at some commonly confused words that have huge implications for the education system, and most importantly, our students. Effective educators must understand these words, as well as how they impact their teaching philosophy and academic process.
What separates war fighting from a warrior? Is it skill? Is it experience? Or is it something deeper that only reveals itself when it matters most?From the Pentagon, Fran Racioppi sat down with Sergeant Major of the Army Mike Weimer and retired Command Sergeant Major Rick Merritt to discuss what it truly means to build and sustain warriors in the United States Army.CSM Merritt spent over three decades on active duty, including 25 years in the 75th Ranger Regiment, serving in every enlisted leadership position from rifleman to Regimental Sergeant Major. He conducted over 1,500 combat operations under Joint Special Operations Command and served more than five years in combat task forces in Iraq and Afghanistan. His experience spans the full arc of modern warfare.Together with the SMA, we unpack into the difference between technical proficiency and true warrior mindset, what commitment looks like when compliance disappears, and how leaders enforce standards without eroding trust. We explore whether resilience is built over time or revealed under pressure, and how purpose sustains Soldiers when motivation begins to fade.As warfare becomes more technical and systems driven, the SMA is challenging the force to ensure technology enhances the warrior. Future conflict will demand innovation and the technological edge, but victory on the battlefield will still be decided by human judgment, character, and leadership.This is a conversation about standards, commitment, mental toughness, and the responsibility of leaders to hold the line…not just to engage in the business of war fighting, but to forge warriors ready to close with and destroy our nation's adversaries.HIGHLIGHTS0:00 Welcome to the Jedburgh Podcast4:40 Defining An Army Warrior14:02 Compliance to Commitment20:02 What Is The Army Culture?27:18 Why A Warrior Mindset Matters38:52 How to Lead the War fighting ProfessionQUOTES“I see a warrior as the reason why we do it.”“Make a difference with your presence. Otherwise, why are you there?”“A warrior is a way of life.”“Technology is not going to make up for the foundation.”“A warrior is one that is dedicated, disciplined, willing to go the extra mile, will fight for those left and right, and never quit.”“The best recruiters we have are our service members, our veterans.”“How much is enough of these key attributes to take a risk on you and bring you in and start developing the rest of that?”“There's just some things about human beings that are going to be done on an individual's basic timeline in life.”“It's not normal for this generation.”“Combat readiness is a way of life.”“Although I took the uniform off, my oath didn't go away.”“The guys on my team know that they're in the right spot with the right people, with the right culture.”“You're consecrated into this culture that I got to find when I retire.” “What makes that culture is character and character development.”“That probably makes the difference in the world is where our NCO core is compared to other countries.”“I'm a firm believer that the noncommissioned officer is the keeper of the culture.”“I think that was our biggest challenge in Vietnam.”“This profession, we hand you a machete and we say ‘Take that path.'”“Grit comes through hardship.”“At the end of the day, guys got to go on the ground.”“We're struggling a little bit in that space.”“There's no time limit on honorable service.”“What is better than being a company commander?”“Don't be a pain in the ass.

Before you open another Google Docs, you need to hear this episode. Today, we're talking to Anand Narasimhan, CTO at S Docs. We discuss why organizations pay $94,000 in compliance penalties due to documentation errors, how 57% of employees bypass official tools when under deadline pressure, and why automation must come before autonomous AI in enterprise workflows. All of this right here, right now, on the Modern CTO Podcast! Thank you to S-Docs for sponsoring this episode. To learn more, check out their website here.
The episode's central development is the ongoing dispute between the U.S. Department of Defense and Anthropic regarding Pentagon demands for unrestricted access to Claude, Anthropic's AI model. According to Dave Sobel, the Pentagon has threatened to sever ties or invoke the Defense Production Act if the company does not comply, seeking capabilities that Anthropic argues may be illegal—specifically mass surveillance without warrants and autonomous weapons systems without human control. This move exposes Managed Service Providers (MSPs) serving defense contractors to unpredictable legal, operational, and compliance risks embedded in their AI workflows. The analysis highlights that a commercial AI provider's acceptable use policy now intersects directly with national security policy, and even partial vendor compliance can trigger regulatory or legal instability for dependent organizations. For MSPs, this means that building service offerings on AI infrastructures without clear fallback strategies or documented policy change clauses can lead to unmanageable risk and liability in the event of provider or legal regime shifts. Dave Sobel stresses that failing to address policy volatility as part of a managed service amounts to underwriting geopolitical risk without compensation. Other notable developments include the passage of the Small Business Artificial Intelligence Advancement Act, federal cybersecurity resource contraction as CISA operates with 38% staffing after layoffs, and heightened uncertainty around cloud infrastructure due to Microsoft's Azure Local “air-gapped” offering not wholly mitigating U.S. CLOUD Act exposure. Vendor news covered new AI-powered compliance features from Compliance Scorecard (version 10) and Beachhead Solutions (ComplianceEZ 2.0), Apple's accelerated retirement of Rosetta 2 translation technology, a Microsoft 365 Copilot DLP change, and continued fallout from VMware's acquisition by Broadcom, which has led to ongoing cost and trust challenges for cloud and infrastructure partners. The episode's clear implications for MSPs and IT providers are operational. Service catalogs and statements of work should actively address AI provider liability, dependency exit planning, and degraded federal cybersecurity support. Without scheduled and documented compatibility and risk reviews, MSPs absorb hidden exposure into their margins. Vendor stability can no longer be assumed, and proactive policy, renewal intelligence, and transparent advisory sessions are now required to avoid unplanned liability, budget crises, and damaged client trust.

Compliance work is uniquely heavy by nature, and burnout is inevitable without sustainable practices. Every compliance team can have balance by creating a better rhythm. In this episode of The Law and Education Podcast, we are discussing some lessons we learned from the recent ICS retreat. Tuning in, you'll hear all about the importance of finding a good rhythm for your compliance team, the power of restoration, real work, and fun, and why all three need to exist within a team, and so much more! We delve into what causes burnout before discussing the importance of sustainable compliance practices. Our host even breaks down three simple 'retreat' ideas that are cost-effective and short, and will have the same impact as our retreat did. Finally, you'll be challenged to find one thing to implement for your team that can create more balance. Thanks for listening! Key Points From This Episode: Today's topic: a recap of the recent ICS retreat. The importance of finding balance within compliance teams. Why your compliance team needs rhythm. Three elements of a successful retreat: restoration, real work, and fun. Why restoration is protective for compliance workers. How doing hard, structural work reduces the weight of burnout. The power of fun as a tool for building trust within teams. Why burnout isn't always about workload and what sustainable compliance is. A breakdown of simple, budget-friendly, and short 'retreat' ideas.

Have you ever been praised for being steady and dependable while quietly drowning under impossible demands? We introverts are often labelled resilient because we do not complain, yet our calm focus is misread as limitless capacity. In this episode I unpack how resilience has been misunderstood and even weaponised, and why being treated like stretch material is not strength. True resilience is flexibility in thought, feeling and behaviour so that we emerge wiser and more able, not unchanged and suppressed. I explore where misinterpretation happens, what it costs us and organisations, and how we can build sustainable resilience without abandoning ourselves. Time to stop confusing compliance with courage and start honouring our humanity. Key points Resilience redefined Weaponised expectations exposed Compliance is not strength #FlourishingIntroverts #IntrovertLeadership #ResilienceWithIntegrity

It's the one thing they didn't teach in design school...We spend years learning how to understand what drives our users, map out complex journeys, and deliver useful service prototypes. But when it comes time to sit down with business stakeholders, compliance teams, or yes even legal departments? That's when the friction sets in.For this episode, we're joined by Belén Tello, who has a very interesting take on how we can overcome this struggle. As the Head of Design for the largest bank in Peru, Belén leads a massive team of over 150 designers. As you might imagine, because they operate in the highly regulated financial sector, they are constantly in negotiations with the rest of the business.Over the years, Belen has experienced firsthand that even the most talented design professionals often freeze up when talking to their business partners. To our own demise, we often retreat to our comfort zones, simply handing over the work and letting the business decide whether it's "good or not". Deep down, we sometimes feel like the business folks just know more than we do (not the case!).To fix this confidence gap, Belén started doing something quite radical, at least for design teams.Before a big stakeholder meeting, she runs "role play" sessions with her team. Yes, almost like lawyers preparing for a mock trial! They sit down and strategize. What do you want to say here? Who are your strongest stakeholders? Do you need me to step in and ask a specific question so you can explain your rationale?Add to that that she's been helping her team learn to speak the "common language" of the bank. And that language? It's numbers and data, obviously.As you'll hear Belén argues that we already do the hard work of gathering qualitative and quantitative insights, but we frequently fail to actually bring that data to the table in a convincing way.When you stop arguing based on subjective perception and start negotiating with facts, everything changes. You move away from being seen as just an "add-on" to the process and finally become a true strategic partner.So if you've ever felt that imposter syndrome kick in during a big meeting, this episode is pretty much a masterclass in building your confidence and growing your influence.As you listen to the episode, I'd love for you to reflect on your own work. How often are you actively translating your insights into a language the business understands? And what would help you to do that more often?Enjoy the conversation and keep making a positive impact!Be well, ~ Marc--- [ 1.

The primary discussion in the episode centers on the increasing risk to data privacy posed by the adoption of artificial intelligence (AI) applications within SMB environments. Panelists highlighted the challenge of educating clients on how AI systems may access, process, and transmit sensitive information, sometimes integrating client data into broader training datasets owned by third parties. Specific emphasis was placed on the operational reality that data, once shared with AI models, may no longer be under the original owner's control. This development directly affects both regulatory compliance and client trust, especially for service providers tasked with protecting client environments. Supporting details referenced both technical and procedural countermeasures available to MSPs. Tools such as browser-based security assessments (e.g., Atacama), network analysis at the firewall, and Microsoft 365's built-in security features (Defender and Cloud App Security) were identified as practical resources for monitoring data flow and enforcing restrictions on AI integration. The approach recommended focuses on assessment-driven education—using tangible network data to demonstrate risks and capabilities, supporting MSPs in facilitating more accountable, informed decision-making among clients. Adjacent topics included a workforce transition in the MSP sector, driven by compliance and security requirements. The discussion referenced an industry demographic shift, with a substantive proportion of MSP owners above the age of 55, and many considering mergers or exits rather than evolving to meet new consulting, compliance, and productivity challenges introduced by AI. Additional coverage addressed the impact of AI and data center expansion on community resources (e.g., demands on electrical grids and water supply), as well as divergent organizational responses to emerging consumer technologies such as smart glasses.

The landscape for physician non-competes is shifting, and practices are feeling the impact. In this episode, hosts Brad and Michael share the story of a top Texas plastic surgeon whose thriving practice relied on strict agreements to retain talent. When new physician non-compete laws limited what employers could enforce, he faced tough choices: how to protect his practice, retain talented surgeons, and stay competitive in a changing market. Tune in to learn how recent legal changes impact non-compete enforceability, what alternative strategies can help safeguard your practice, and how to retain top talent without putting your business at risk.Chapters[00:00] Intro[00:42] Banter [06:04] Story [23:48] Access+ [24:23] Legal Takeaways [30:49] OutroWatch full episodes of our podcast on our YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@byrdadatto Stay connected for the latest business and health care legal updates: WebsiteFacebookInstagramLinkedIn
What separates organizations that pass audits from those that survive real incidents? In this episode of The Segment, host Raghu Nandakumara sits down with Phil Park, global cybersecurity and risk leader at IBM. With more than 25 years advising financial institutions across the U.S., Europe, and Asia-Pacific, Phil brings a practical perspective on how supervision is rapidly evolving from compliance checklists to real-world operational readiness. Together, Raghu and Phil unpack the industry's biggest mindset shift: regulators no longer ask “Are you protected?” — they ask “Can you operate through disruption?” They explore why prevention alone is no longer enough, why containment and recovery now define security maturity, and how CISOs are moving from siloed operators to enterprise-wide risk leaders accountable to boards and regulators alike. The conversation also dives into: Why regulators evaluate response quality rather than technical perfection How organizations are turning tabletop exercises into realistic resilience testing The growing pressure created by third-party and supply-chain dependencies Why evidence and outcomes matter more than policies and frameworks How overlapping reporting requirements are reshaping incident response playbooks The double-edged role of AI in both defense and attack, including deepfake risks Why security fundamentals matter even more in the AI era This episode is a must-listen for security leaders and executives navigating a world where passing the audit is no longer the goal — proving you can withstand disruption is.

In this conversation, Peter discusses the launch of the Midnight Mainnet, focusing on its federated node operators and the importance of privacy and compliance in blockchain technology. He highlights the roles of key players like MoneyGram, eToro, and PairPoint by Vodafone, and emphasises the significance of zero-knowledge proofs in ensuring privacy while maintaining regulatory compliance. The discussion also touches on the future prospects and challenges for Midnight as it transitions from a federated to a decentralised network.TakeawaysThe biggest hurdle to real world adoption of blockchain isn't speed.Midnight focuses on selective disclosure and programmable data protection.Privacy preserving by default, compliant friendly when needed.ZK proofs allow proving compliance without revealing sensitive data.MoneyGram's role signals a regulatory bridge for blockchain adoption.E-Toro's scale implies a stress test mindset for infrastructure.PairPoint addresses privacy issues in the economy of things.Federated setups ensure stability during the network's launch phase.Midnight's operator set includes serious players in cloud and fintech.The transition from federated to decentralized is crucial for Midnight's future.Chapters00:00 Introduction to Midnight Mainnet and Its Significance02:53 Federated Node Operators: Key Players in Midnight's Launch06:11 The Role of Privacy and Compliance in Blockchain07:37 Future Prospects and Challenges for MidnightDISCLAIMER: This content is for informational and educational purposes only and is not financial, investment, or legal advice.

In this episode of Compliance is Cool, AmSpa founder Alex Thiersch and General Counsel Patrick O'Brien dive deep into the legislative "flurry" currently sweeping through the medical spa industry. Focusing on Indiana's Senate Bill 282, the duo explores how a seemingly benign licensing bill evolved into a restrictive piece of legislation targeting both medical spas and compounding pharmacies. They pull back the curtain on the "Big Pharma" influence—specifically Eli Lilly's presence in Indianapolis—and explain why the sudden push to track compounded GLP-1 medications has created a "death by paperwork" scenario for med spa owners. This episode serves as a wake-up call for the industry as similar legislative language begins to surface in states like Florida, Iowa, and Arizona. Discussion points include: An overview of the path Indiana SB 282 took from draft to law An explanation of the bill's provisions and how they would adversely affect medical providers The connection between SB 282 and big pharma's battle with compounding medications How Alex, Patrick, and their lobbyist worked with legislators to improve the bill and what it still includes The national trends that practitioners should stay aware of, and how AmSpa and its members can be proactive in leading the conversation

The award-winning Compliance into the Weeds is the only weekly podcast that takes a deep dive into a compliance-related topic, literally going into the weeds to explore it more fully. Looking for some hard-hitting insights on compliance? Look no further than Compliance into the Weeds! In this episode of Compliance into the Weeds, Tom Fox and Matt Kelly look at the recent conviction of Charles ‘Hunter” Hobson for FCPA violations. Former Corsa Coal senior sales executive Charles Hunter Hobson was found guilty in Pennsylvania of helping arrange roughly $4.8 million in bribes to officials tied to a state-owned Egyptian coal company, using an intermediary, to secure about $143 million in contracts. Also, Hobson allegedly pocketed about $200,000. Tom and Matt Hobson's unsuccessful “dog bite” defenses. They also discuss tensions between corporate and individual accountability, the practical reality that companies may cooperate and “turn on” individuals, and that individuals can also expose companies by cooperating with prosecutors. Finally, they speculate on why DOJ pursued trial amid shifting enforcement signals, referencing other recent FCPA matters (Millicom DPA, Smartmatic indictment) and past DOJ trial losses, and conclude that the best approach is to avoid bribery and avoid being the “last man standing.” Key highlights: Hobson Case Overview Dog Bite Defense Breakdown Payment Red Flags Declinations and Individual Risk Why Go to Trial?

Jesus Tells Us: Follow Me Out of the Darkness Today's Homily contrasts mere compliance with true obedience in the spiritual life, . . . . . . especially during Lent. Compliance is external, minimal, and checklist-driven . . . doing what is required without interior conversion. Obedience, however, is transformative: it allows God's commands to shape the heart, form character, and open a person to charity, generosity, and deeper union with Him. Practices such as prayer, fasting, Sabbath observance, and almsgiving are not ends in themselves. When done only outwardly, they are empty. Their purpose is to redirect the believer away from self-absorption and toward love of God and neighbor, forming a heart capable of mercy. Lent is Thus a Journey Fasting should lead to generosity; prayer should reshape desire; rest should become rest in God, not mere inactivity. This teaching echoes the prophetic call found in the Book of Isaiah. The Gospel image of Jesus calling Levi (Matthew) illustrates this movement vividly. Levi sits enclosed in a tax booth . . . symbolizing the human tendency to cling to security, ambition, resentment, or comfort. Christ's command, “Follow me,” is not a suggestion but a liberating summons to step out of spiritual confinement. Lent is thus a journey of following Christ out of darkness toward the joy of Easter, where He leads His people “home” into communion, celebration, and true rest . . . an invitation also expressed in Gospel of Matthew. Ultimately, salvation may be characterized as entering God's rest: a life no longer ruled by self-will, but transformed into the likeness of Christ through prayer, sacrifice, and charity. Hear more within the Homily. Listen to Jesus Tells Us: Follow Me Out of the Darkness ------------------------------------------------------------------ Art Work The Calling Of Saint Matthew: Dutch painter: Hendrick Ter Brugghen: 1621 ------------------------------------------------------------------ Why was this image selected: Matthew's hesitation and awakening, mirroring the sermon's image of Christ entering the “customs booth” of the human heart to lead it into light.

Managed Service Providers are being pushed to “get compliant fast.” In my discussion with Bruno Leqoc, we reframe the challenge. Compliance isn't security, and lasting compliance depends on security maturity first. Highlighting how AI policy can extend existing governance frameworks, why Microsoft Secure Score is a practical readiness indicator, and why foundational controls (MFA, patching, device management/remote wipe) must come before certifications and GRC tooling. In this episode, we also explore MSPs' expanding responsibilities in data privacy and governance amid fragmented U.S. state laws and why client alignment and continuous maintenance are the true costs of compliance.
Innovation comes in many areas, and compliance professionals need not only to be ready for it but also to embrace it. Join Tom Fox, the Voice of Compliance, as he visits with top innovative minds, thinkers, and creators in the award-winning Innovation in Compliance podcast. In this episode, host Tom Fox welcomes Tim Khamzin, Founder & CEO of Vivox AI, to discuss building explainable, trusted AI agents for financial crime compliance teams. Tim describes his background in banking operations automation, including large-scale digital transformation and the development of compliance products, and explains how large language models since 2023–2024 enable the automation of unstructured compliance work without extensive model training. He outlines key challenges in AML/KYC operations—15% of bank headcount tied to compliance, heavy manual repetitive investigations across multiple systems, and cultural resistance to adopting technology. Tim emphasizes “explainability” through consistent, repeatable investigations with audit logs and screenshots that mirror human workflows, and “trust” through transparency, compliant vendor choices, and clear communication of limitations. Tim introduces Vivox compliance analyst, “Rachel,” a platform of collaborating agents that supports onboarding, customer due diligence, and false-positive reduction, improved via structured human feedback (thumbs up/down) to learn firm-specific standards. He explains how Vivox stays aligned with evolving regulations by engaging with bodies such as the UK FCA and tracking frameworks such as the EU AI Act and Singapore guidance, with a focus on auditability and explainability. Tim predicts most compliance work will shift to AI agents, with humans handling complex cases and a new role of “compliance engineer” emerging to configure and evaluate agents, alongside industry consolidation and operating-system-style vendor platforms. Key highlights: From Banking Automation to Founding Vivox AI: The Opportunity in LLMs What's Broken Today: Manual Investigations, Backlogs, and Culture Gaps Explainable + Trusted AI: Audit Trails, Screenshots, and Transparency Regulators' Top AI Concerns: Black Box, Bias, and 99% Accuracy Inside ‘Rachel': The AI Compliance Analyst & Human-in-the-Loop Feedback The Future: Compliance Engineers, Agent “Operating Systems,” and Consolidation Resources: Tim Khamzin on LinkedIn Vivox AI Innovation in Compliance was recently honored as the Number 4 podcast in Risk Management by 1,000,000 Podcasts.

In this episode of Protect It All, host Aaron Crow dives into one of the biggest misconceptions in operational technology: the belief that compliance equals protection. Using NERC CIP 15 as a real-world case study, Aaron explores why meeting regulatory requirements is only the starting point - not the finish line. A major focus of this conversation is OT network monitoring, especially the often-overlooked east-west traffic inside your environment. Many organizations monitor perimeter traffic while internal blind spots remain wide open. You'll learn: Why compliance frameworks don't automatically create security The real challenges of implementing NERC CIP 15 at scale Why internal network visibility (east-west monitoring) matters How to establish meaningful baselines in legacy OT environments The difference between audit success and operational resilience Why architecture, tooling, and skilled personnel must work together Whether you're working in utilities, manufacturing, or critical infrastructure, this episode provides practical guidance on how to move beyond checklists and build security programs that truly reduce risk.

Last week's Supreme Court ruling on Trump-era tariffs didn't declare tariffs unconstitutional.They didn't say the President lacks trade authority.They didn't say Congress delegated too much power.Instead…They said they were “uncomfortable.”And in doing so, they may have quietly replaced constitutional separation of powers with something far more dangerous:
Prior authorizations among Medicare Advantage plans have drawn criticism and concern from patients, providers, lawmakers, and regulators. But hospitals and doctors are uniquely positioned to advocate for their patients' access to and coverage for care. What's necessary is the need to understand the rules of the process. And Medicare Advantage plans have many of them.During the next live edition of the venerable Monitor Monday, the Internet broadcast, Richelle Marting, a healthcare attorney, and certified coder, will help you understand when and how Medicare Advantage plans can use prior authorizations for the critical protections you need to know to advocate for patient care.Broadcast segments will also include these instantly recognizable features:• Monday Rounds: Ronald Hirsch, MD, vice president of R1 RCM, will be making his Monday Rounds.• The RAC Report: Healthcare attorney Knicole Emanuel, partner at the law firm of Nelson Mullins, will report the latest news about auditors.• Risky Business: Healthcare attorney David Glaser, shareholder in the law offices of Fredrikson & Byron, will join the broadcast with his trademark segment.• Legislative Update: Matthew Albright of Zelis, will report on current healthcare legislation.
Stephen Sargeant (Airdropd) breaks down what crypto compliance actually looks like from the inside: five years at Bitfinex handling investigations and law enforcement requests, why the compliance community is tighter (and more welcoming) than people assume, and how a single 20-minute video to Chainalysis turned into producing their podcast, Public Key.We also get practical on content: why “AI slop” is making real creators stand out, why LinkedIn is a “value piggy bank,” and what crypto Twitter natives get wrong when they try to port their influence over. Plus: surviving trolls, building narrative in a chaotic industry, and how early-stage founders can approach compliance without killing the business.
Welcome to EO Radio Show – Your Nonprofit Legal Resource. We're starting 2026 the way I always start election years, with a reminder to leadership of charities and private foundations to refresh their understanding of election-year issues for those organizations that want to remain exempt under Internal Revenue Code section 501(c)(3). This year, there is an update I want to call out regarding a court case in Texas and proposed federal legislation that could change the scope of the prohibition on candidate intervention by certain kinds of charities. In the next few weeks, we'll refresh EO Radio Show episodes seven and eight, which address legislative lobbying by public charities and private foundations, also likely to be very hot topics in 2026. Be sure to check out the show notes for resources from the IRS on these topics as well.

Silicon Bites Ep291 | 2026-02-22 | Russia will disappear. Its population consumed by imperial lust and pointless aggression. Compliance to a dictator that expends their lives senselessly and without care. Putin may be prepping a new mobilisation and the further hardening of the police state and repression. In this episode we cover the evidence of what Moscow is doing now, and what it may be planning and the stakes if Putin does choose to mobilise. The social, demographic and strategic consequences of this ominous decision.Tonight: a single, brutal question — is Vladimir Putin preparing Russia for a new wave of explicit mobilisation this spring? We'll run the actions we can verify, the signals from inside the system, and the cascade of consequences — from tightened censorship to demographic collapse and, yes, the remote but real risk of historic imperial implosion and disappearance.----------SUPPORT THE CHANNEL:https://www.buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtainhttps://www.patreon.com/siliconcurtain----------SOURCES:ISW / RBC summary: “Putin readies hidden draft in 2026 amid heavy losses — ISW” — analysis of informational and legal moves toward staged conscription.The Guardian: “Russian crackdown on Telegram app prompts rare criticism from soldiers, pro-war bloggers and officials” — on throttling Telegram and frontline blowback.
