You'll find several talks entitled Suffering on the Podcast and Elisabeth Elliot Foundation website. Each is unique, with its own stories and tone. All are a blessing and encouragement. --- Music by Jon Hanson
Ryan is joined by longtime UFO researcher, defense contractor, and Scientific Coalition for UAP Studies (SCU) board member Rich Hoffman for an in-depth conversation covering the past, present, and future of UAP research. He shares how an eighth-grade science assignment launched a lifetime of investigations that would eventually bring him into contact with Project Blue Book personnel, Dr. J. Allen Hynek, Stanton Friedman, and many of the pioneers who shaped modern ufology. The discussion explores Hoffman's work with MUFON's STAR Team, his decades supporting the U.S. Army and defense technology programs, the creation of the Scientific Coalition for UAP Studies, and why collaboration between scientists, governments, and civilian researchers is more important than ever. They also dive into the upcoming SCU Conference in Toronto, the Aguadilla UAP investigation, advances in AI and UAP detection, the latest War.gov document releases, and whether humanity is any closer to genuine disclosure.

The future belongs to organizations that invest in people as much as they invest in technology. Whether building stronger communities, developing emerging leaders, or reducing human cyber risk, lasting success comes from creating environments where individuals are informed, connected, engaged, and empowered to contribute at their highest level. Recorded live at the Beyond 26 Conference in Salt Lake City, Utah, this special episode brings together two dynamic technology leaders who are helping shape the future of the IT channel from very different—but equally important—perspectives. Brook Lee, Senior Director of Community at Rev.io, and Nihil Morjaria, Chief Revenue Officer at usecure, share insights on leadership, community building, cybersecurity, and the evolving role of human behavior in technology. Brook discusses the power of authentic relationships, meaningful conversations, and creating communities where MSPs can learn and grow together. Nihil explores why Human Risk Intelligence is becoming a critical pillar of modern cybersecurity as AI-driven threats increasingly target people rather than systems. Together, their perspectives reveal a common theme: technology alone does not drive success—people do. Highlights include: People remain the most important factor in business growth, innovation, and cybersecurity. The "secret sauce" behind meaningful engagement: listen more, talk less, and create genuine connections. How Rev.io is helping MSPs strengthen operations and community collaboration. What Human Risk Intelligence means and why it is transforming cybersecurity strategies How AI is changing both business opportunities and cyber threats. Why security awareness programs should focus on culture, behavior, and proactive participation. The growing importance of measuring human risk posture and organizational resilience.

One of the sillier myths in our culture claims, “Most men don't read.” Sometimes this is a real trend. Other times it's wishful thinking because some folks don't want to share stories that boys and men want to read. Still, we can join to equip Christian fathers and other mentors for their unique God-given responsibility—to train kids to fight dragons. And for that mission, author James R. Hannibal rides back into the studio.

Com station Top question for listeners How did mentors and fantastical stories train you to fight dragons? Lavay Byrd enjoyed ep. 316 with Rebecca P. Minor Hi, all! I was just listening to the podcast, and all your discussions really hit what I've been feeling towards the sad explosion of overly sexualized/”porn” romantasty or even considered “regular fantasy” populating bookstores, while books like Lord of the Rings or even Christian Fantasy being treated as an afterthought. Listening to you all discuss such a sad reality made me think of how “overly-sensationalized” books are basically harmful drugs that's poisoning readers, more so among the teens and YA. I'm so glad to see writers like Rebecca P Minor and many others not only acknowledging the darkness for what it is, but also shining HOPE LIGHT and TRUTH that always overcome darkness through story. I also agree that we need more real characters with flaws and struggles, making choices both dark and good, while opening up a path for grace and redemption. Next on Fantastical Truth Our next episode will release after Realm Makers. So at this point, we haven't yet planned it! Perhaps you'll have an amazing idea. Or maybe we'll catch some trend or topic at the Expo that we never would have considered. Either way, we hope to see you next week in St. Louis.

A predator rarely “shows up” as a stranger in the dark. Sometimes he shows up as a trusted helper with a badge, a friendly smile, and the perfect reason to be near your child. In the final episode of Season 7, we talk with Conference on Crimes Against Women presenter Chris McGhee, the father of a survivor and a relentless advocate for criminal justice reform, to unpack how sexual assault grooming actually works and why it can fool entire families.Chris breaks down grooming as a deliberate playbook: selecting vulnerability, building trust, crossing boundaries in small steps, then using shame and fear to keep a victim quiet. He shares how his daughter Grace was targeted by a school resource officer who first positioned himself as a mentor, then weaponized his authority, his community reputation, and Grace's relationships to trap her. We connect these real-world details to the grooming model described by Dr. Georgia Winters and Dr. Elizabeth Jeglic so listeners can recognize the patterns, not just the headlines.We also talk about the aftermath: PTSD, triggers, and the unique pain of watching a case end in a plea deal that doesn't feel like justice. Chris explains how disappearing-message platforms like Snapchat can complicate investigations, and how survivors can experience secondary victimization while navigating reports, interviews, and court decisions. Finally, we focus on prevention and change: open parent-teen communication, removing blame from children who were manipulated, and pushing for anti-grooming laws and accountability when mandated reporters abuse power.If you care about child safety, sexual assault prevention, and real criminal justice reform, listen through and share this with someone who needs the language to spot grooming sooner.
In this episode of The Archive Project, we feature a discussion on late writer Ursula K. Le Guin's legacy of pacifism and environmentalism. Our moderator is Theo Downes-Le Guin, Ursula's son and literary executor. Theo is in conversation with Oregon-based writers Juhea Kim, author of the novel Beasts of a Little Land, a finalist for the 2022 Dayton Literary Peace Prize, and Michelle Ruiz Keil, author most recently of the young adult novel Summer in the City of Roses, which was a finalist for the inaugural Ursula K. Le Guin Prize for Fiction. In her speech at the 2014 National Book Awards, accepting the Medal for Distinguished Contribution to American Letters, Ursula said: “Hard times are coming, when we’ll be wanting the voices of writers who can see alternatives to how we live now and can see through our fear-stricken society and its obsessive technologies to other ways of being, and even imagine some real grounds for hope.” Juhea Kim and Michelle Ruiz Keil are two of those voices that we need now. In this conversation, Juhea and Michelle discuss how they came—and returned—to Le Guin's work, her influence on their writing, and how they are carrying her legacy forward, including the responsibility of the artist as a humanitarian. This conversation was recorded in front of a live audience at Literary Arts on July 15, 2022. “It is good to have an end to journey toward; but it is the journey that matters, in the end.” ― Ursula K. Le Guin Ursula K. Le Guin (1929-2018) was a celebrated author whose body of work includes 23 novels, 12 volumes of short stories, 11 volumes of poetry, 13 children's books, five essay collections, and four works of translation.

This week we welcome American Association of Law Libraries leaders Jenny Foster, AALL President for 2025-2026, and Jessica Whytock, AALL Vice President and President-Elect. The conversation offers a preview of the 2026 AALL Annual Meeting & Conference in Cleveland, Ohio, along with a thoughtful look at how the association is supporting legal information professionals during a period of institutional, technological, and professional change.Foster reflects on a leadership year focused on transparency, communication, and meaningful opportunities for member participation. From strengthening channels between members and AALL leadership to intentional volunteer appointments across committees and juries, she describes an association built through relationships. The goal is to ensure newer, mid-career, and seasoned law librarians all have a visible place in shaping the profession's future.Advocacy also plays a central role in the discussion. Foster explains how AALL continues its work on access to legal information, public policy, and coalition-building, even amid staffing transitions. The association's Government Relations Committee has continued meeting with members, offering advocacy training, rebuilding connections with peer organizations, and aligning its work with AALL's strategic priorities. For law librarians, advocacy is both a long-term commitment and a practical responsibility tied to preserving authoritative legal information.The 2026 conference theme, “Leading with Aloha,” gives the Cleveland meeting its distinct point of view. Foster shares how aloha, rooted in kindness, unity, humility, patience, and meaningful connection, became a framework for leadership during uncertain times. More than 65 programs will explore topics ranging from generative AI and legal scholarship to physical collection strategy, access challenges, and the changing role of legal information professionals. Local programming connected to Cleveland's history will bring an added sense of place to the gathering.Whytock looks ahead to her upcoming presidency with a focus on clear pathways for engagement, leadership, grants, scholarships, committee service, and professional growth. Both leaders see artificial intelligence as a catalyst for a deeper conversation about the identity and value of legal information professionals. Their message is straightforward: the future of law librarianship rests in human judgment, critical thinking, ethical discernment, context, access, and a community willing to bring more voices into the room. The 2026 AALL Annual Meeting in Cleveland offers a place for those conversations to move from aspiration into action.Listen on mobile platforms: Apple Podcasts | Spotify | YouTube | Substack[Special Thanks to Legal Technology Hub for their sponsoring this episode.]Email: geekinreviewpodcast@gmail.comMusic: Jerry David DeCicca Transcript:
Visuals: https://getbehindthebillboard.com/episode-111-btb-x-woo-conference-part-2 Recorded live at the WOO Congress 2026 in London just a fortnight ago, this is the second of our special Behind the Billboard episodes - and this time we're on the Global OOH, Innovation & Creativity track. Hugh and Dan….. Well…. Mainly Dan as Hugh had run away to catch a train…. grab short, sharp conversations with a stellar line-up of out-of-home leaders from around the world: Elizabeth McIntyre, CEO of OMA Australia; Ben Milne, CEO APAC at Billups; Nick Bell, UK MD at Billups; Jaime Byrdak, CEO North America at Billups; Jay Young, MD of Grand Visual; Sarah Parkes, Managing Partner, International at Talon; Danielle Austin of Evolve OOH; James Harrison from MPN part of Dubai Holdings; and Simon Wall, CEO of Glynt Group in South Africa. Phew… what a list… what a monster session. Across the episode we explore where OOH is heading now: smarter creative, better data, creative mapping, AI, sustainable infrastructure, mobile media, and the enduring power of a brilliantly simple poster in the right place. There are stories behind work for Google Maps, RNLI's Float To Live, Nike Running and the NYC Marathon, Selleys, Jolt, Out There, Ad Free Zones, IFS.ai and Tractor Media's school-powering billboards. It's a fast-moving global tour of the medium we love: from Australia to Dubai, South Africa to North America, and back to the streets of London. Along the way, our guests pick their favourite billboards, share what excites them about the future, and remind us that when out-of-home is at its best, it's public, useful, unmissable and impossible to ignore. In true Behind the Billboard style, there are a few rabbit holes, plenty of billboard nerdery, and a healthy amount of love for the people pushing the medium forward. Thanks to WOO for having us, to all our brilliant guests for giving up their time in the middle of congress chaos, and to everyone who still believes the humble billboard has plenty of magic left in it. Thanks again to our usual suspects and supporters, and for this one especially the team at WOO.
by UFO History Buff & Author, Charles Lear Ted Bloecher, who passed away not too long ago at the age of 94, was a researcher/investigator who started out in the days of flying saucers as a founding member of Civilian Saucer Intelligence of New York and was active until the mid-1980s. He was an early researcher of humanoid reports starting in 1955, just after the 1954 French humanoid wave and the 1955 Kelly-Hopkinsville incident, and was the author of numerous publications on the subject. Tucked away in the United Kingdom file of the downloads section of the Archives for the Unexplained website is a report he wrote titled Close Encounters of the Third Kind that was published in 1977 by the British UFO Research Association. According to the introduction, the paper was prepared for a talk he gave at the BUFORA National UFO Conference at the Centre Hotel in Birmingham, England, in November 1976. The subtitle describes the paper as “The preliminary presentation of extensive study into UFO cases involving the reported sightings of humanoids and other alien beings.” In this blog, we'll look at some of the highlights.

In this milestone 10-year anniversary episode of North Meets South, Michael and Jake reflect on a decade of podcasting, from their first awkward recordings and early Laravel community connections to the friendships, conferences, and recurring topics that have shaped the show over nearly 200 episodes. A large part of the episode focuses on Michael's work-in-progress event ticketing platform inspired by the challenges of running Laracon AU. He explains the limitations of existing conference ticketing systems, the difficulties of collecting attendee information for multiple conference-adjacent events, and his vision for a more attendee-centric system that manages profiles, dietary requirements, event registrations, and conference networks across multiple Laravel events. To wrap up, Michael and Jake discuss giving developers direct database access, the security implications of SSH access, database permissions, and Laravel filesystem configuration, including why enabling exception throwing for filesystem operations can help avoid silent failures.Show linksLaracon AULaracon US TicketTailor Transistor Laravel News PodcastNo Plans to Merge Notes on WorkTalking BusinesslyLarabelles LaraProm WalletWalletLaravel filesystem throw on fail
Send us Fan MailAI can generate a flawless post, a flawless pitch, even a flawless brand voice. So what do people trust when everything looks “perfect”? I sit down with Pierre Lindh, co-founder and managing director of Next.io, to explore why the most credible signal left might be the simplest one: real humans in the same room, having real conversations.Pierre takes us back to the story that shaped his entire career in community and events, starting with an 18-year-old running a poker club in Sweden and getting raided by police. From there, we trace how that early experience evolved into building large iGaming conferences that many delegates describe as “a room full of friends you haven't met yet”. We get specific about what that takes at scale: designing networking that works for introverts and extroverts, creating side events that fit different energy levels, and giving first-timers structured ways to meet the right people without forcing awkward small talk.We also zoom out to the future of trust in a world shaped by AI and algorithms. Pierre explains why capital is flowing into live events, how AI can actually make conferences more purposeful through better matchmaking, and why authenticity and transparency become the marketing moat when “Apple-quality” campaigns are suddenly cheap. We finish with a deep dive into prediction markets, the wisdom of crowds, and why purpose may be the difference between a fringe category and a lasting industry.If you enjoy conversations about Web3, AI, digital leadership, marketing, community building, iGaming, and the future of live events, subscribe, share this with a friend, and leave a review with 5 stars.

I almost didn't go to the KIT Craft + Commerce conference. Before the trip, I was overwhelmed, anxious, questioning everything, and honestly wondering if I should stay home and work instead. But what happened after I got in the room reminded me of something I deeply believe: Visibility is bigger than social media. In this episode of Social Media Decoded, I'm sharing the real lessons I learned at the KIT Conference in Boise—from meeting creators in real life, hearing powerful talks from leaders like James Clear and Jay Papasan, giving James Clear my book (!), and realizing that the biggest opportunities often happen outside of social media and inside real conversations. Because here's the truth: At a certain level, opportunities don't come from algorithms. They come from relationships. In this episode, we're talking about: Why I almost skipped the conference Anxiety, overwhelm, and showing up anyway What happened when I gave James Clear my book My biggest takeaway from Jay Papasan's talk Why relationships matter more than follower count The power of getting in the right rooms Why proximity is one of the most underrated visibility strategies How real conversations lead to partnerships, referrals, and opportunities Key takeaway from this episode: “The biggest shift wasn't what I learned on stage. It was what happened in the conversations.” If you've been feeling stuck in business, overwhelmed with content creation, or wondering why visibility isn't translating into opportunities—this episode is for you. Because sometimes your next level isn't another strategy. Sometimes it's the room. Connect with Michelle: DM the word ROOM on Instagram @MichelleLThames Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
