Leaders in PSM and co-creators of the Yale consensus guidelines meet to discuss key aspects of the recently updated consortium recommendations.

LaTosha Brown has been described by many as a "force of nature," and from the first seconds of this Blue Sky episode, you will understand why.  Raised in Selma, Alabama she grew up surrounded by family members who were at the center of the civil rights movement in the United States.  Being close to grandparents who spent much of their adult lives unable to vote led her to appreciate this franchise and their example continues to inspire her "get out the vote" work today. LaTosha describes being raised by strong women and not experiencing overt sexism until she ran for office in Alabama, but instead of letting this get her down, she channeled these experiences into the creation of the Southern Black Girls & Women's Consortium. LaTosha Brown also happens to be a talented singer and performer, and she shares this gift with us here as well.    Chapters: 00:00 Introducing LaTosha Brown  This chapter introduces LaTosha Brown, co-founder of Black Voters Matter and Southern Black Girls and Women's Consortium, highlighting her extensive background as a thought leader and activist. Host Bill Burke also shares his initial encounter with her and praises her infectious sense of hope and optimism.  02:24 Selma's Civil Rights Legacy  LaTosha discusses her upbringing in Selma, Alabama, and the profound impact of the Edmund Pettus Bridge, even before she understood its historical significance. She shares deeply personal stories of her mother's experience integrating high school and her aunt's participation in Bloody Sunday, emphasizing the lasting effects of these civil rights efforts on her family and her own development.  11:17 Grandparents, Voting & Justice  LaTosha recounts her grandparents' deep reverence for voting, stemming from their long struggle to gain the right to vote in Alabama. She also reflects on her lifelong fascination with power and justice, recalling childhood instances where she instinctively stood up against bullying, illustrating her innate desire to challenge the abuse of power.  21:05 Politics and Challenging Sexism  LaTosha discusses her decision not to pursue a political career despite running for office multiple times, explaining that her focus shifted to making a greater impact through organizing and infrastructure building.   30:09 Love, Power & Blackness as a Gift  LaTosha explains that Black Voters Matter is founded on Dr. Martin Luther King's philosophy of love implementing justice and power correcting injustice.   39:07 Southern Black Girls & Women's Consortium  LaTosha shares the inspiration behind the Southern Black Girls and Women's Consortium, an initiative to reverse underinvestment in Black women and girls in the South. She details the consortium's three core pillars: centering joy through activities like the 'Joy is Our Journey' bus tours, building an ecosystem of support organizations, and creating a new philanthropic model led by Black women and girls, including a partnership with Megan Thee Stallion to address mental health.  44:57 Sources of Optimism  LaTosha reveals the three main sources of her unwavering optimism: her faith in a higher power and the miraculous nature of life, the incredible capacity of human beings to create and imagine, and the historical resilience of her ancestors, which allows her to thrive today. She emphasizes that optimism is a choice of focus, deeply rooted in appreciating the wonders of the universe and human existence. 

Mongabay Latam's multiyear, *award-winning **investigation that uncovered 67 clandestine airstrips in the Peruvian Amazon used for drug trafficking sent waves across the local media landscape. It drew attention to the Indigenous communities impacted by these illegal airstrips and the 15 Indigenous leaders who were killed defending their territory. To communicate this story to a wider audience, Mongabay Latam director Maria Isabel Torres and managing editor Alexa Vélez adapted it into an interactive live theater performance for an audience of 100. They join this week's podcast to tell the "story behind the story" of what they, their reporters, and Indigenous leaders experienced during this investigation, and how their play adaptation brings that to the eyes and ears of a theatrical audience. "I think that all the journalists in these times, we are very worried [about] trying to find ways to understand our audience and to get their attention. We know that there are news avoiders. We know that there are fake news. So we are trying to look for different ways," Torres says. *This story was first published by Mongabay Latam in Spanish on Nov. 12, 2024, and won the 2025 Global Shining Light Award for investigative journalism and the Digital Storytelling prize given by the 2025 Future of Media Awards. **This investigation was conducted in partnership with the Consortium to Support Independent Journalism in the Region (CAPIR), which leads the Institute for War and Peace Reporting (IWPR) in Latin America.

Last week I did something different on the podcast. I talked about stakeholder vs. shareholder capitalism... and a lot of you reached out saying "this finally explains everything I've been experiencing." So this week I'm building on that. Because understanding the economic system is one thing. But understanding the management philosophy that flows from it? That's where it gets real. This week's episode: Classical vs. Progressive Management with Bob Emiliani Bob is the author of 28 books on progressive management and has been researching this for over 30 years. And he breaks down why leaders say they want collaborative, people-centered cultures... then turn around and manage with command-and-control. Spoiler: It's not because they're lying. It's because of the management philosophy baked into the system. Here's what you'll learn: What classical vs. progressive management actually means Why your transformation work keeps failing (and it's not your influence skills) What consultants and coaches are really up against when trying to influence leaders How to work more strategically instead of blaming yourself My big takeaway We worry too much about our influence skills and beat ourselves up when change fails. But when everything is operating the way it's designed—classical management, shareholder capitalism—making the shift toward what we know in our hearts is better is bigger than any one of us can change alone. We need to partner together. That's why I'm launching the Common Good Consulting & Coaching Consortium—and Bob has agreed to be an advisor. Want to join the Consortium?

Het is Paramount tóch gelukt! Al maanden proberen ze aandeelhouders én het bestuur van Warner Bros te overtuigen dat hún bod echt superieur is aan dat van Netflix. Telkens had dat geen zin. De directie van Warner Bros nam de telefoon niet eens op, beweerde Paramount-ceo David Ellison. Maar nu Paramount het bod verhoogt heeft, willen ze tóch praten. Of dat gesprek het begin gaat zijn van een biedoorlog met concurrent Netflix, zoeken we uit in deze aflevering. Daarin hoor je ook over Volkswagen: de autobouwer gaat álweer bezunigen. En fors ook: er moet voor 20 procent in de kosten worden gesneden. Het is de zoveelste bezuiniging, keer op keer bleken besparingen dus niet genoeg. Wij hebben een betere oplossing voor Volkswagen: meer geld verdienen. Waarom ze dat maar niet lukt, bespreken we ook. Hoor je ook nog over: Het nieuwe AI-model Alibaba, dat zelfs beter schijnt te zijn dan de Chinese tegenhanger Deepseek ECB-baas Christine Lagarde, die er vertrouwen in heeft: de euro wordt de nieuwe wreldmunt Hoe het nieuwe box-3-stelsel zelfs Elon Musk bereikt heeft Welke chatbot het Amerikaanse leger heeft gebruikt bij de ontvoering van de Venezolaanse president Maduro Te gast: Niels Koerts van Stockwatch. BNR Beurs is een journalistiek onafhankelijke productie, mede mogelijk gemaakt door Saxo. Over de makers: Jelle Maasbach is presentator van BNR Beurs en freelance financieel journalist. Zijn favoriete aandeel om over te praten is Disney, maar daar lijkt hij de enige in te zijn. Sinds de eerste uitzending van BNR Beurs is 'ie er bij. Maxim van Mil is presentator van BNR Beurs en journalist bij BNR, waar hij zich focust op de financiële markten en ontwikkelingen in de tech-wereld. Je krijgt hem het meest enthousiast als hij kan praten over ASML, of oer-Hollandse bedrijven zoals Ahold of ABN Amro. Jorik Simonides is presentator van BNR Beurs, economieredacteur en verslaggever bij BNR. Hij wordt er vooral blij van als het een keer níet over AI gaat. Milou Brand is presentator van BNR Beurs, freelance podcastmaker en columnist bij het Financieele Dagblad. Jochem Visser is presentator van BNR Beurs, maakt Beursnerd XL en is redacteur bij BNR Zakendoen en de podcast Onder Curatoren. Vraag hem naar obscure zaken op financiële markten en hij vertelt je waarom het eigenlijk nóg leuker is dan je al dacht. Over de podcast: Met BNR Beurs ga je altijd voorbereid de nieuwe beursdag in. We praten je in een kleine 25 minuten bij over alle laatste ontwikkelingen op de handelsvloer. We blijven niet alleen bij de AEX of Wall Street, maar vertellen je ook waar nog meer kansen liggen. En we houden het niet bij de cijfers, maar zoeken ook iedere dag voor je naar duiding van scherpe gasten en experts. Of je nu een ervaren belegger bent of net begint met je eerste stappen op de beurs, de podcast biedt waardevolle inzichten voor je beleggingsstrategie. Door de focus op zowel de korte termijn als de lange termijn, helpt BNR Beurs luisteraars om de ruis van de markt te scheiden van de essentie. Van Musk tot Microsoft en van Ahold tot ASML. Wij vertellen je wat beleggers bezighoudt, wie de markten in beweging zet en wat dat betekent voor jouw beleggingsportefeuille.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The sense of hearing is a finely tuned collaboration between physics and biology, transforming invisible sound waves into meaning, memory, and emotion. From the delicate mechanics of the middle ear to the neural pathways that help us localize danger, recognize voices, and enjoy music, hearing quietly shapes how we connect with the world. Yet it's also one of our most vulnerable senses—affected by aging, noise exposure, infection, and even cardiovascular health. How benign are ear pain and ringing? Is there a limit to how loud we should listen to music? And what can we do to protect this sense before silence becomes noticeable?In this episode, we are joined by Dr. Stacey Lim, AuD, PhD, CCC-A, an American Speech-Language-Hearing Association (ASHA)-certified audiologist and Professor of Audiology.Dr. Lim received her BA in Communication Sciences and Disorders and German Language and Literature from Wooster College, her AuD (Doctor of Audiology) from the Northeast Ohio Au.D. Consortium at the University of Akron, and her PhD in Audiology from Kent State University. Currently, Dr. Lim is a Professor of Audiology at Central Michigan University, holds a Certificate of Clinical Competence in Audiology (CCC-A) from ASHA, and is a researcher focused on cochlear implants and aural rehabilitation, informed by her personal experience of bilateral, profound sensorineural hearing loss since birth. Previously, Dr. Lim was a Fulbright Scholar at the Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich, studying hearing loss in Germany, a co-Principal Investigator in March of Dimes research on cognitive and linguistic skills related to hearing loss, and the Chapter President at the Alexander Graham Bell Association for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing.Dr. Lim is also a co-curator of (dis)ABLED BEAUTY, a museum exhibition featuring creatively designed adaptive devices, assistive devices, and apparel for people with disabilities.Follow Friends of Franz Podcast: Website, Instagram, FacebookFollow Christian Franz (Host): Instagram, YouTube

Deux jours après la fin du mandat du Conseil présidentiel de transition, le Premier ministre Alix Didier Fils-Aimé est désormais le seul au pouvoir en Haïti. Les activités ont progressivement repris ce lundi matin (9 février 2026) en Haïti. Dans certaines communes, notamment à Pétion-Ville, des scènes à caractère pré-carnavalesque ont même été observées hier soir (8 février), avec des bandes de rara, des foules dans la rue, principalement des jeunes, qui dansaient et chantaient dans une atmosphère détendue. Mais ce n'est pas un signe d'adhésion ou de soulagement, plutôt un calme attentif, remarque notre correspondant à Port-au-Prince, Peterson Luxama. L'histoire récente invite à la prudence. Alix Didier Fils-Aimé bénéficie d'un appui clair de la communauté internationale, en particulier des États-Unis. Or, en Haïti, l'histoire montre que le soutien international, et américain surtout, répond souvent d'abord à des intérêts géopolitiques et stratégiques, qui ne coïncident pas toujours avec les attentes profondes de la population. S'il bénéficie du soutien de Washington, Alix Didier Fils-Aimé devra composer avec une classe politique très divisée. Sans son adhésion, il aura du mal à conduire le pays vers des élections. Et cette division s'est vue lors de la cérémonie de passation de pouvoir : certains membres du Conseil présidentiel de transition n'avaient pas fait le déplacement samedi. (7 février 2026) À lire aussiFin du CPT en Haïti: le Premier ministre, Alix Didier Fils-Aimé, prend les rênes de l'exécutif   Des balles « made in USA » au Mexique Une enquête coordonnée par le Consortium international des journalistes d'investigation, et à laquelle ont participé le New York Times et Proceso, révèle comment une usine de l'armée états-unienne alimente la violence au Mexique. C'est celle de Lake City. Une usine exploitée par Olin Winchester et installée dans une base de l'armée dans le Missouri. Elle fabrique notamment des munitions de calibre 50, des balles capables d'abattre un hélicoptère ou de percer un blindage léger. Mais ces munitions ne sont pas seulement destinées à l'armée. Elles sont aussi vendues aux civils aux États-Unis. Pour quoi faire ? On ne sait pas trop. Toujours est-il qu'elles ont fini par se retrouver de l'autre côté de la frontière, au Mexique donc, où elles ont été utilisées dans près de cent affrontements, ces dernières années. Le New York Times indique que six cartels mexicains utilisent ces balles fabriquées dans l'usine de Lake City. Ces cartels, ce sont les mêmes que ceux que Donald Trump a classés organisations terroristes l'année dernière (2025). Toujours aux États-Unis, beaucoup restent très marqués par la mort, il y a un mois de Renee, tuée par la police de l'immigration à Minneapolis. Peu de temps après, l'ICE avait fait une deuxième victime dans cette même ville. Le scandale a largement dépassé les militants opposés à la politique migratoire extrêmement dure de Donald Trump. Même des figures du parti républicain le critiquent. C'est le cas de l'ancienne sénatrice Amy Koch, que notre correspondant à Washington Vincent Souriau a rencontrée. Elle est aujourd'hui lobbyiste et assure que beaucoup sont restés sidérés, notamment les élus qui travaillent au quotidien avec le gouverneur de cet État, le démocrate Tim Walz.  À lire aussiÉtats-Unis: l'administration Trump sur la défensive après la mort d'Alex Pretti à Minneapolis   Bad Bunny, une autre idée de l'Amérique Lui qui ne joue plus aux États-Unis, de peur que son public ne soit victime des raids de l'ICE, Bad Bunny s'est offert l'ultra prestigieuse mi-temps du Super Bowl hier soir (8 février). C'est mythique aux États-Unis. Toute la presse du continent en parle. « Bad Bunny au Super Bowl, une image de l'Amérique », titre ainsi Le Devoir au Canada. « Un show qui rappelle que l'Amérique est un continent, et pas seulement les États-Unis », note Pagina12 en Argentine. Pour La Razon, au Mexique, ce show n'était pas seulement de la musique ; c'était de la politique avec du rythme. Le quotidien y voit une ode au nationalisme, pas celui à la sauce Trump du « nous » contre « eux ». Mais « un nous qui ne demande pas la permission d'exister », écrit La Razon, sans pour autant tenter d'effacer l'autre. Même si le spectacle était relativement policé hier soir, Bad Bunny dénonce régulièrement la mainmise des États-Unis sur son île natale, les millions de touristes qui y déferlent chaque année et que les spéculateurs préfèrent aux natifs porto-ricains qui, eux, ont de plus en plus de mal à se loger.

Synopsis Dans l'épisode 0x285, Patrick, Steve, Jacques et Richer se retrouvent pour un tour d'horizon des sujets cyber et vie privée qui ont marqué la semaine. Entre actualités de sécurité, tendances ransomware, et signaux faibles qui deviennent des signaux d'alarme, l'équipe met en contexte ce qui compte vraiment, et pourquoi. On parle aussi d'événements à venir, notamment la Semaine de la protection des données (26 au 30 janvier 2026), des conférences et rendez-vous au Québec, et des enjeux très concrets autour du cloud et de la souveraineté numérique. Côté menaces, on revient sur l'évolution des ransomwares, l'industrialisation des attaques, et ce qui change avec l'IA dans l'outillage et les scénarios. Enfin, l'épisode aborde plusieurs dossiers d'actualité, dont la protection des données, les campagnes de phishing qui s'adaptent, des incidents d'infrastructure, et des débats sur l'accès aux technologies, la régulation et la confiance. Une écoute utile pour rester aligné sur les risques, et sur les décisions qui en découlent.

Freed from a mystical vortex, the Consortium's elite team must come to grips with what's happened to the town in their unexpected absence…and who's left to stand against the dark creeping in.

  At first glance, alcohol and racial equality might seem unrelated—but for Black activists, the temperance movement was a powerful vehicle for social change. In this episode of Grating the Nutmeg, Natalie Belanger of the Connecticut Museum chats with Mackenzie Tor about her research into Black temperance activism in 1830s and 1840s Connecticut. Mackenzie talks about how people like Maria Stewart, James Pennington, and the Beman family used temperance as a strategy for civic inclusion. Through their words and organizing efforts, from newspaper columns to church halls, abstaining from the bottle became a radical tool for political belonging in the hands of Connecticut's Black communities. She also discusses the flip side of this – how accusations of intemperance could be wielded to bring down successful Black men, like New Haven's William Lanson, when their business and civic ventures threatened the power of white elites.     Mackenzie, a PhD Candidate in History at the University of Missouri, did research for this project at the Connecticut Museum as part of the New England Regional Fellowship Consortium.

 "Face reality and deal with it. The more we can create an environment where it's okay to give people the time, the space, and the opportunity to process what they're going through, the higher the chances are of successfully dealing with a loss of a loved one—or dealing with an organizational change."  Ian Ziskin Panel discussion on Lives Lost and Leadership Found In this insightful and wisdom enhancing leadership conversation, A Leadership Beyond hosts a panel discussion on Lives Lost & Leadership Found. The panel is moderated by Marie Genevieve Pawlak, and includes: Ian Ziskin, co-author of Lives Lost and Leadership Found: Lessons from Special Somebodies, co-founder of Consortium for Change (C4C), and "retired" Human Resources executive Adrienne Guerrero, co-founder of A Leadership Beyond, Founder and CEO at at Positive Delta Michelle Halm, Licensed professional counselor and founder of Grief Connection Space Marie Genevieve Pawlak guides a deeply human conversation with thought leaders who have turned personal loss into a wellspring of insight for thriving through change initiatives and leading others in transformational change. The discussion journeys from raw stories of unexpected loss—whether of loved ones or familiar ways of working—toward the subtle ways grief shapes our identities as leaders and our organizations as communities. Together, the panelists reveal how facing pain with honesty, extending grace to others, and integrating lessons from adversity can forge not only resilience but greater compassion, connectivity, and authentic leadership. Their dialogue bridges the deeply personal to the organizational, weaving neuroscience, practical strategies, and heartfelt stories into a rich tapestry of wisdom for anyone navigating change. Among the highlights of this dynamic conversation: - Grief, whether personal or collective, can be channeled into powerful lessons and growth for individuals and entire organizations. - Authentic leadership emerges by embracing reality, showing empathy, and inviting open conversations about change and loss. - The discomfort of change and loss can lead to renewed purpose, connection, and stronger organizational cultures—when leaders intentionally create space for healing and support. Closing Invitation: If today's dialogue resonates with your own journey or the challenges within your organization, we encourage you to explore Ian Ziskin's "Lives Lost & Leadership Found" for deeper insights and inspiration.

In this episode of WAHNcast, hosts Angie Truitt and Ashley Northcutt sit down with Julia Pierson, Executive Director of the Consortium for Housing and Asset Management (CHAM) and one of the most respected voices in affordable housing. Julia reflects on her four-decade career, from her start as a HUD intern to becoming a nationally recognized leader shaping the field of asset management. Julia breaks down what asset management really is, why it matters, and how strong partnerships between owners, syndicators, lenders, and HFAs can mean the difference between stable properties and those at risk. She also discusses the evolution of the field, the growing demand for skilled asset managers, and the importance of technical knowledge paired with strong soft skills. As Julia prepares for her upcoming retirement, she shares her vision for CHAM's future, the culture she has intentionally cultivated, and why she believes “housing policy is human policy.” This conversation is full of insight, clarity, humor, and heart, just like Julia herself.

 Chris Kolakowski on Civil War to World War: Simon Bolivar Buckner Sr. and Jr. For More Info: WWW.ChicagoCWRT.org Not many Civil War generals can claim to have had a son who was a general during World War 2. But Confederate Lt. Gen. Simon Bolivar Buckner's son, of the same name, had a distinguished U.S. army career. A Kentuckian, Simon Sr. surrendered Fort Donelson to his close prewar army friend, Ulysses Grant, in 1862, and served as a corps commander in the Army of Tennessee. At war's end he surrendered the largest existing Confederate army, that of the Trans-Mississippi Department. After the war he was elected Governor of Kentucky, and ran for Vice-President in 1896. On Nov. 14th Chris Kolakowski will talk about the two Buckners, and their interesting careers. Christopher L. Kolakowski is Director of the Wisconsin Veterans Museum, a position he has held since January 6, 2020. He received his BA in History and Mass Communications from Emory and Henry College, and his MA in Public History from the State University of New York at Albany. Chris has spent his career interpreting and preserving American military history with the National Park Service, New York State government, the Rensselaer County (NY) Historical Society, the Civil War Preservation Trust, Kentucky State Parks, the U.S. Army, and the MacArthur Memorial. He has written and spoken extensively on various aspects of military history and leadership from 1775 to the present, and was the inaugural Director of the General George Patton Museum and Center of Leadership at Fort Knox, Kentucky. Chris has published three books on the Civil War and three on World War II in the Pacific. He is a reviewer and contributor to the Air Force Journal of Indo-Pacific Affairs and a Senior Fellow at the Consortium of Indo-Pacific Researchers. His latest book, titled Tenth Army Commander, is about General Simon Bolivar Buckner Jr., who was killed in battle on Okinawa in 1945. 

Dogs: Man's best friend. Cat's worst enemy. Horses' best reference for job applications. Yeah, this week is about dogs. Listen, I don't know much about dogs, and yes, I am on the do-not-adopt list at the local shelter.

Anywho, this week's episode is filled with questions about boats, questions about music, and questions on death. Look, just give your ear holes a little treat and check this one out. Do it. Get out of your chair and go listen.

After a brush with the restless dead, more trouble comes a-knockin': something's amiss past the outskirts of Tombstone, and wicked rumors in the ranches and scrubland have drawn the Consortium's eye.

A stranger calls for aid on the dusty road beyond Tombstone, and the researchers of the Consortium (and Garfield and Mason) are duty-bound to answer. Sometimes, wayward souls need a little help staying dead.

Deep State control over humanity is undergoing an accelerating collapse that will lead to global revolution in 2026 according to Brad Johnson, a popular psychic communicator. He has learned from a variety of non-human intelligences how Deep State efforts to control humanity have been systematically undermined by a host of benevolent off-world actors who are assisting the evolution of humanity from behind the scenes. Deep State factions are now fighting against each other for the limited resources available to them after the interventions of these benevolent non-human intelligences, who are also behind the recent incursion of 3I/Atlas into our solar system which is impacting Earth and Mars in profound ways. Many secrets concerning humanity's true history, the existence of Inner Earth civilizations, giants, and suppressed technologies that will soon be revealed according to Johnson. While there will be increasing disclosures concerning the existence of extraterrestrial life, open contact with alien landings may still take more than a decade to happen (up to 2038). In August 2008, Brad Johnson first began communicating with a Sirian extraterrestrial entity called “Adronis” and has since communicated with other non-human entities, including “Athena” from the Inner Earth and the “Consortium of Infinite Intelligence.” He employs a range of psychic tools to enhance his communication, while ensuring that no deceptive entities compromise his efforts, a common issue among many inexperienced channelers. Johnson has a track record in sharing accurate predictions about future events and is the founder of “Wisdom Nexus” a popular YouTube channel and the “Earth Intelligence Report.”Brad Johnson's website is: https://www.wisdomtransmissions.comHis Youtube Channel is: https://www.youtube.com/@TheWisdomNexusNetworkJoin Dr. Salla on Patreon for Early Releases, Webinar Perks and More.Visit https://Patreon.com/MichaelSalla/

Send us a textHappy Halloween! Landing on a Friday, if you have kids in school, their day probably included some tricks and treats, I hope, and maybe an emergency run to school to drop off an extra dozen orange cupcakes. I have such nice memories of helping the kids' classes have a fun party, often heading up an art project, or making a quiet corner for kids that aren't into the party thing with a basket of Halloween books and Legos.I got curious about the true origins of Halloween. And how the holiday came to the United States. I'd heard conflicting accounts and you know me, I did some digging. Don't worry though, it wasn't grave digging. Though I did dye my hair platinum, so maybe now I'll fit in with the cool graveyard kids.Oh, and I haven't forgotten our northbound journey along the Pacific Crest Trail. If you take a day off to rest on the PCT, it's called a Zero Day. That's what we're takin. Next week, I'll bring us back to the PCT where we'll cross into Washington state. I hope we get their before snow starts to fall in the Cascades. But back to Halloween in the United States...Let's get into itThis episode covers: Halloween's Worldwide OriginsHalloween comes to the United StatesTrick or TreatingAbout those treats...and yes, the history of candy cornCostumes (their history and evolution)Halloween todayA spooky Halloween track by an independent artist at the show closeAbout that song after the close...Caves of Dawn by Guilherme Bernardes (support his work with the link here) Sources:Library of Congress article about Halloween originsTrick or Treat History, 1031 Consortium.comHistory of Halloween Costumes in America, CNN100 Years of Halloween Costumes: An Ultimate Fashion History, The Ultimate Fashion History, YouTubeI don't accept sponsors and paid advertisers.

On this episode of Destination on the Left, I bring together three trailblazers for a candid community conversation about the heart of collaboration in the travel and tourism industry. Joining are Dave Herrell, President and CEO of Visit Quad Cities; Rebecca Mackenzie, President and CEO of the Culinary Tourism Alliance; and Sage Hamilton-Hazarika, Corridor Coordinator for the Underground Railroad Consortium of New York State. Together, we discuss what true collaboration looks like, and the panel explores how putting trust, vulnerability, and outcomes over ego unlocks success not just in visitor numbers, but in cultural pride, reconciliation, and the preservation of stories and identity. My guests share real-life examples of cross-boundary partnerships, from bold destination branding to the creation of transformative culinary and heritage tourism experiences. What You Will Learn in This Episode: Why collaboration in tourism is increasingly about trust, vulnerability, and prioritizing outcomes over individual recognition What tangible impacts true collaboration can have, from advancing reconciliation and celebrating cultural heritage to building destination resilience and social pride How Visit Quad Cities strategically collaborates with less resourced organizations to build regional brands and blur the lines between tourism, resident attraction, and economic development Why even small, volunteer-driven organizations can punch above their weight by leveraging partnerships for major projects What “radical collaboration” means to the panelists, and how adopting a mindset of openness and flexibility allows for bold, innovative work How the panelists measure the success of collaborative initiatives with a broader lens  that builds community and legacy Lessons from Destination on the Left's Community Conversation Collaboration isn't just a buzzword—in the travel, tourism, and hospitality industry, it's the engine that powers growth, creativity, and resilience. Drawing on stories from Dave Herrell of Visit Quad Cities, Rebecca Mackenzie of the Culinary Tourism Alliance, and Sage Hamilton-Hazarika of the Underground Railroad Consortium of New York State, this conversation revealed that radical collaboration means far more than sharing resources—it's about trust, vulnerability, and transcending individual mentality. Success in this industry isn't a zero-sum game. Rather than competing, travel professionals thrive when they collaborate, lifting each other up and focusing on shared wins rather than territorialism. Collaboration in Action: Three Inspiring Examples For Dave Herrell, collaboration is built into the DNA of Visit Quad Cities, a regional destination marketing organization spanning 58 communities across two states. Bringing together diverse municipalities, counties, and funding sources demands a strategic approach. Dave described their innovative partnership with the local chamber of commerce to develop unified branding and marketing messages for the region, intentionally blurring the lines between promoting tourism, economic development, and livability. Rebecca Mackenzie painted a picture of taste of place, showcasing how food and drink tell powerful stories about a region's heritage. The Alliance's recent event in Nova Scotia exemplifies radical collaboration: over 12 months, culinary organizations, Indigenous tourism networks, Parks Canada, DMOs, and local operators built an immersive experience intertwining Mi'kmaq history, language, and cuisine. The event attracted visitors outside peak season and fostered social impact and cultural pride. As the sole paid employee in a mostly volunteer-run organization, Sage Hamilton-Hazarika knows firsthand how partnership is essential for small nonprofits punching above their weight. Through collaboration with DMOs, historians, and national heritage areas, the Consortium is developing the Harriet Tubman Scenic Byway, which will connect historic sites across New York and beyond. Radical Collaboration What does “radical collaboration” mean? My guests agreed that it is persistence—the refusal to accept ‘no' as an answer, and the humility to let go of credit and control. It means doing the work, inviting new and unexpected voices to the table, and learning from every opportunity that arises. Measurement of collaborative success must consider social and environmental impacts, not just economic ones. For example, being asked to the table, deepening partnerships, celebrating local cultures, and expanding access are all signs of progress—even if your logo isn't always visible.

They also provide updates on their ongoing innovation with Flow Medical, describing their philosophy and motivation for developing a new device for PE treatment that incorporates real-time pulmonary artery pressures, mean systolic and diastolic pressures, and a potential for AI utilization in the future. ---TIMESTAMPS00:00 - Introduction01:23 - PERT Consortium Highlights02:11 - Emerging Clinical Trials and Innovations03:59 - Thrombectomy Devices and Market Trends12:37 - Flow Medical: Origin and Updates19:37 - Advanced Data Tracking in Cardiology20:45 - Remote Monitoring and Mobile Integration22:45 - Cardiologists' Data-Driven Approach23:10 - Upcoming Studies and Data Insights24:10 - Interventional Radiology and Cardiology Collaboration25:07 - Access to Care and Procedure Adoption27:32 - Final Thoughts---RESOURCESPulmonary Embolism Response Team (PERT) Consortiumhttps://pertconsortium.org/ Flow Medicalhttps://www.flowmedical.co/ PEERLESS RCThttps://www.ahajournals.org/doi/10.1161/CIRCULATIONAHA.124.072364RESCUE-IIhttps://www.jacc.org/doi/10.1016/j.jacadv.2025.101789 PEERLESS II https://www.jscai.org/article/S2772-9303(24)01053-6/fulltextPulmonary Embolism - Thrombus Removal With Catheter-Directed Therapy (PE-TRACT)https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT05591118 The HI-PEITHO Studyhttps://www.bostonscientific.com/en-EU/medical-specialties/vascular-surgery/venous-thromboembolism-portal/pulmonary-embolism/clinical-data/hi-peitho.htmlPRAGUE-26https://eurointervention.pcronline.com/article/design-and-rationale-of-prague-26-a-multicentre-randomised-trial-of-catheter-directed-thrombolysis-for-intermediate-high-risk-acute-pulmonary-embolism Pulmonary Embolism - Thrombus Removal With Catheter-Directed Therapy (PE-TRACT)https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT05591118 Aaron Fritts, MDhttps://www.backtable.com/shows/vi/contributors/dr-aaron-fritts Osman Ahmed, MDhttps://jointvascular.com/team/osman-ahmed-m-d-fcirse/ Jonathan Paul, MDhttps://www.uchicagomedicine.org/find-a-physician/physician/jonathan-d-paul

Liver transplantation continues to evolve as strategies expand to address organ shortage and optimize outcomes. Normothermic machine perfusion (NMP) offers a novel way to preserve and assess donor livers prior to implantation. In this episode of Behind the Knife, our transplant team at University of Nebraska Medical Center discusses the latest evidence from randomized trials, practical applications in donation after circulatory death (DCD) grafts, and how NMP is shaping clinical decision-making in high-risk transplants.  Hosts -  Madeline Cloonan, MD PhD, General Surgery Resident, University of Nebraska Medical Center, @maddie_cloonan   - Jacqueline Dauch, MD, Assistant Professor, University of Nebraska Medical Center  -  Shaheed Merani, MD PhD, Associate Professor, University of Nebraska Medical Center  - Alan Langnas, DO, Professor, University of Nebraska Medical Center  Learning Objectives - Describe the principles of normothermic machine perfusion (NMP) and how it differs from static cold storage.  - Summarize the design and key outcomes of the PROTECT trial and the Chapman et al. trial on NMP in liver transplantation.  - Recognize the clinical scenarios where NMP provides the greatest benefit, particularly in high-risk grafts (e.g., DCD donors, high donor risk index).  - Apply a practical viability assessment framework for livers on NMP, including hemodynamics, bile production, lactate trajectory, and histology when indicated.  - Discuss the implications of NMP for allocation, system logistics, and future adoption trends in transplantation.  References   1.     Markmann JF, Abouljoud MS, Ghobrial RM, et al.

In this week's MBA Admissions podcast we began by discussing the current state of the MBA admissions season, with interview invites continuing to roll out. This week, Ohio State / Fisher, Notre Dame / Mendonza, Boston College / Carroll, Texas / McCombs, USC / Marshall, Indiana / Kelley, Arizona / Carey, UCI / Merage, Florida / Warrington, Rice / Jones and The Consortium all have their Round 1 deadlines. NYU / Stern has its Round 2 deadline. Duke / Fuqua, Oxford / Said and Notre Dame / Mendoza are all scheduled to release final decisions from early rounds. INSEAD and Imperial Business School are scheduled to release interview invites. Graham highlighted several upcoming events being hosted by Clear Admit this month, including a Real Humans series and a series focused on MBA programs in different regions of the United States. Signups for all these events are here, https://www.clearadmit.com/events Graham also highlighted our next livestream AMA, scheduled for Tuesday, October 28; here's the link to Clear Admit's YouTube channel: https://bit.ly/cayoutubelive. Graham noted a recently published admissions tip which focuses on which types of questions a candidate can ask their MBA admissions interviewer, at the end of the interview. Finally, Graham highlighted a Real Humans piece that focuses on Class of 2027 MBA students at ESADE in Barcelona. For this week, for the candidate profile review portion of the show, Alex selected three ApplyWire entries: This week's first MBA admissions candidate has applied in Round 1 with a GRE score of 315. They do plan to retake it and submit the new score to the schools to which they have already applied. This week's second MBA applicant is based in Canada and has a 2.9 GPA. This is due to their first two years of study, where they really struggled. They also have a 317 GRE score. We recommend they retake the test, one more time. The final MBA candidate is from Africa and is targeting European MBA programs. They need to refine their goal focus and perform well in either the GMAT or GRE. This episode was recorded in Paris, France and Cornwall, England. It was produced and engineered by the fabulous Dennis Crowley in Philadelphia, USA.
