The Context of White Supremacy (C.O.W.S.) Radio Program hosts the weekly summit on Neutralizing Workplace Racism 01/01/26. On the opening day of the new year, ominous forecasts in the Financial Times and other outlets predict more jobs lost to technology. Tellingly, some reports anticipate jobs being lost regardless of how well the new technology performs. We'll also review the importance of checking your employee handbook. Some jobs mandate that workers submit to drug or alcohol testing, body searches or other invasive security measures. It's always best to know these policies in advance - maybe before you take the job. And we get another reminder that Victims of Racism can see what you do in the workplace, and might pick up your habits - for better or worse. #AITookMyJob #TheCOWS16Years INVEST in The COWS – http://paypal.me/TheCOWS Cash App: https://cash.app/$TheCOWS CALL IN NUMBER: 720.716.7300 CODE 564943#
Across 152 conversations this year, a set of recurring patterns kept surfacing, regardless of whether the discussion focused on application security, software supply chain risk, AI systems, or creative work. The industries varied. The roles varied. The challenges did not.One theme rises above the rest: visibility remains the foundation of everything else, yet organizations continue to accept blind spots as normal. Asset inventories are incomplete. Build systems are poorly understood. Dependencies change faster than teams can track them. The issue is not a lack of tools. It is a willingness to tolerate uncertainty because discovery feels hard or disruptive.Another pattern is equally consistent. Integration matters more than novelty. New features, including AI-driven ones, sound compelling until they fail to connect with what teams already rely on. Security programs fracture when tools operate in isolation. Coverage looks strong on paper while gaps quietly expand in practice. When tools fail to integrate into existing environments, they create complexity instead of reducing risk.Security also continues to struggle with how it shows up in daily work. Programs succeed when security is embedded into workflows, automated where possible, and invisible until it matters. They fail when security acts as a gate that arrives after decisions are already made. Teams either adopt security naturally or route around it entirely. There is no neutral middle ground.Context repeatedly separates effective leadership from noise. Risk only becomes meaningful when it is framed in terms of business operations, delivery speed, and real tradeoffs. Leaders who understand how the business actually functions communicate risk clearly and make better decisions under pressure.Finally, creativity remains undervalued in security conversations. Automation should remove repetitive tasks so people can focus on judgment, problem solving, and design. The same mindset that produces elegant guitars, photographs, or products applies directly to building resilient security programs.These five patterns are not independent ideas. Together, they describe a shift toward security that is visible, integrated, contextual, workflow-driven, and human-centered.Read the full article: https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/five-patterns-from-152-podcast-episodes-2025-changed-i-martin-cissp-st1ge________This story represents the results of an interactive collaboration between Human Cognition and Artificial Intelligence.Enjoy, think, share with others, and subscribe to "The Future of Cybersecurity" newsletter on LinkedIn: https://itspm.ag/future-of-cybersecuritySincerely, Sean Martin and TAPE9________Sean Martin is a life-long musician and the host of the Music Evolves Podcast; a career technologist, cybersecurity professional, and host of the Redefining CyberSecurity Podcast; and is also the co-host of the On Location Event Coverage Podcast.

Wednesday, 31 December 2025 And behold, a woman of Canaan came from that region and cried out to Him, saying, “Have mercy on me, O Lord, Son of David! My daughter is severely demon-possessed.” Matthew 15:22 “And you behold! A Canaanite woman from those same borders, having come, she croaked to Him, saying, ‘You compassionate me, Lord, Son of David! My daughter, she is demon-possessed badly'” (CG). In the previous verse, Jesus left the land of the Gennesaret and departed to the allotments of Tyre and Sidon. With Him there, Matthew next records, “And you behold! A Canaanite woman.” This is the only time that the word Chananaios, Canaanite, is seen in the New Testament. That is derived from Chanaan, Canaan, found twice in Acts. This was the early name of the land of Israel, having been named after Canaan, the grandson of Noah through Ham. The meaning of the name Canaan (Hebrew kna'an) is debated. It is variously translated as Land of Purple, Low, Merchant, etc. The likely meaning is Low, Abased, Humble, Humiliated, something along these lines. This is based on the account of Genesis 9, where Canaan is first mentioned. In Mark, it says of this same woman that she “was a Greek, a Syro-Phoenician by birth.” There is no contradiction in this. Syro-Phonecia is the area, and the term “Greek” is being applied as we might when we say of a person from Germany, “He is a European.” One is a wider explanation of a more precise designation. Albert Barnes provides the historical understanding – “In ancient times, the whole land, including Tyre and Sidon, was in the possession of the Canaanites, and called Canaan. The Phoenicians were descended from the Canaanites. The country, including Tyre and Sidon, was called Phoenicia, or Syro-Phoenicia. That country was taken by the Greeks under Alexander the Great, and those cities, in the time of Christ, were Greek cities. This woman was therefore a Gentile, living under the Greek government, and probably speaking the Greek language. She was by birth a Syro-Phoenician, born in that country, and descended, therefore, from the ancient Canaanites. All these names might, with propriety, be given to her.” Of this woman of Canaan, it next says, “from those same borders.” The meaning is based on the previous verse, that it is the “allotments – Tyre and Sidon.” Understanding this, Matthew continues, saying, “having come, she croaked to Him, saying, ‘You compassionate me, Lord, Son of David!'” Nothing is said about how she knew of Jesus, but it is apparent that His fame had extended far and wide. In both Mark and Luke, by this time in the narrative, it was already acknowledged that people from Tyre and Sidon had come to see Jesus (Mark 3:8 and Luke 6:17). Thus, Jewish residents of that area had already gone to see Jesus, returned, and spoken of the things they saw. Now, knowing He was in the area and understanding that He was the promised Messiah, indicated by the words “Son of David,” this Canaanite woman begs for compassion to be extended even to her, a Gentile. But more, she is of the cursed line of Canaan. This is based on Noah's cursing of Canaan for what Ham did to him in Genesis 9. The last thing a person of such lineage might expect from the Jewish Messiah would be compassion. And yet, she faithfully came forward in hopeful expectation that He might listen to her plea, which was, “My daughter, she is demon-possessed badly.” This woman, having heard of Jesus' capabilities, has placed the situation concerning her demon-possessed daughter in the hands of Jesus, hoping He will respond and cure her. Her faith is on prominent display, even if the level of it is not yet revealed. Life application: In commentaries on this verse, both Cambridge and Vincent's Word Studies say something similar – “...out of the same coasts] Literally, those coasts. Jesus did not himself pass beyond the borders of Galilee, but this instance of mercy extended to a Gentile points to the wide diffusion of the Gospel beyond the Jewish race.” Cambridge “Lit., as Rev., from those borders; i.e., she crossed from Phoenicia into Galilee.” They cannot accept that Jesus traveled outside of Galilee. This, despite two different words having been used to describe His going there. The first was in verse 21, where Jesus is said to have traveled to the “allotments – Tyre and Sidon.” The second, in verse 22, says “from those same borders,” meaning she was born, raised, and lived in the same area where Jesus had traveled to. These scholars got it stuck in their heads that Jesus never left the area of Galilee based on what it says when He charged His disciples not to go in the way of the Gentiles and by His words that will say that He was sent to minister only to the lost sheep of the house of Israel. Because of this, their faulty deduction is that “Jesus never left the Galilee.” Both of those statements were addressed in the comments of verse 15:21. It explicitly says Jesus traveled to this area. But once we have a presupposition stuck in our head, cognitive dissonance takes over, and we will do anything to justify falling in line with what we want the text to say. What do you believe about the timing of the rapture? Have you got that in your head because of what you were taught? If so, the chances are that you will argue that point regardless of what the Bible actually says. That is unwise. We must be willing to acknowledge that we could be wrong. Be sure to keep all things in their proper context. This is of paramount importance. From there, be willing to accept that what you think is true might be wrong. After that, do your study and don't violate the “context” issue if you find you might have been wrong. This is what most people do when faced with the reality that things aren't matching up with what they thought. Context is king. So keep everything in its proper context. From there, stick to it at all times. Your doctrine will improve as long as you stick to what is said, regardless of what you think you know. Lord God, none of us wants to be proven wrong. And none of us wants to betray the teachings that we received from a beloved pastor or teacher by contradicting what they taught us. And so, we put up a defense against change. Help us not to do this. May we be willing to go where Your word teaches, regardless of whether we find we were wrong. Help us to have this attitude at all times. Amen.
We know from both Jewish and secular sources, that 2,500 years ago the Babylonians led by Nevuchadnezar, besieged Jerusalem on this day. Two years later the Temple was destroyed. But what events led to this moment? And why was the path of the prophet Yirmiyahu's life so dangerous? As importantly how do we, in our days, feel a connection to the message and the narrative? 10th Teves is also designated as a day of mourning, for all those who do not know the date or the fate of their family's passing during the Holocaust, and this episode will feature the unusual story of a young child in the partisans.

Do some stories or laws in the Bible have you stumped?In this special Q&A episode, we tackle your hardest biblical questions from why innocent people face consequences for others' sins to how Jesus' genealogy proves his Davidic lineage through both Mary and Joseph. We explore controversial Old Testament laws about rape and marriage, unpack the cultural context behind family punishment in ancient Israel, and reveal why Satan appears less frequently in Old Testament books compared to the New Testament. You'll discover surprising answers about Joseph's Egyptian wife, the evil spirit that tormented King Saul, and how to study scripture like a theologian.Podcast themes:Context transforms understanding. When we understand the cultural and historical context of difficult biblical passages, God's justice and protection come into clearer focus. So when stories seem harsh or unfair, look at them as an invitation to dive deeper and seek the true nature of God who is just, patient, and intentional from Genesis to Revelation. God's plan leaves no room for doubt. The dual genealogies of Jesus in Matthew and Luke aren't contradictions. They're confirmation. One traces Joseph's legal lineage, the other Mary's biological line, both converging at King David to prove Jesus fulfills messianic prophecy completely.Satan's influence has always existed, even when unnamed. Just because "Satan" isn't mentioned by name frequently in the Old Testament doesn't mean spiritual warfare wasn't happening. The adversary operated throughout biblical history, sometimes through direct attack when God withdrew His protection.Show notes:Genealogy of JesusWe love feedback, but can't reply without your email address.

Show Notes: Remco Visser talks about Saga, an AI product used by 150 law firms. Remco explains that Saga is a legal AI innovation company helping law firms and legal departments implement AI into their practice and daily workflows. AI Training and Integration The platform includes AI training and adoption sessions to help firms integrate AI into their daily practices. However, Remco highlights the importance of understanding the viability space where AI can be effectively used if the firm is not yet ready for full AI implementation. Saga helps firms understand when AI integration is the best option and offers training on using AI in the workflow. He talks about LLMs and more standard software options Demonstrating Saga Remco demonstrates the AI platform's ability to draft legal documents, using an NDA as an example. The platform automatically recognizes when a user wants to draft a document and opens a window for AI-generated documents, and he shows the platform's ability to ask follow-up questions for customization, such as what country state law should govern it? What's the main purpose? How long do you want it to last? Remco explains the platform's new updates require more context to draft accurate documents. The Saga Prompt Improver Remco introduces the concept of a prompt improver that automatically improves prompts for users. The platform can suggest variables for users to fill in, making it easier to draft accurate documents. To highlight the program's efficiency, he gives an example of a prompt improved by the platform. Remco emphasizes the importance of providing context, such as jurisdiction and language, to improve the accuracy of AI-generated documents. He explains how the prompts can be stored in the Prompt Library improver and how the Saga lab tests and shares prompts for customers to access. Saga Use Cases Remco discusses various use cases, including drafting letters of intent and reviewing agreements, and mentions that people with no legal experience can use it. The platform can use templates and attach documents to draft comprehensive legal documents. Remco demonstrates the ability to redline documents and suggest changes based on templates. The platform can also assist with litigation by drafting arguments, memos, and letters, and providing detailed timelines. Saga's Assistance Roles Remco explains the concept of assistance roles, such as devil's advocate, contract assistant, and legal research assistant. These roles help users challenge their arguments and improve their legal strategies. Data Accuracy and AI Hallucinations Remco addresses the issue of hallucinations in AI-generated documents, explaining how Saga mitigates this risk. The platform uses citations and reasoning models to ensure the accuracy of generated documents. He demonstrates the various assistant models available from proofreader and tax authority to Judge and goes into detail on how to check citations and ensure data is accurate. Saga's Implementation Process Remco outlines the implementation process for firms, recommending starting with a smaller group for training. The training program includes sessions on AI basics, prompting, workflows, and legal databases. Firms can also bring practice groups together to brainstorm AI use cases and share information. Remco emphasizes the importance of hands-on exercises during training to ensure users understand how to use the platform effectively. Time-saving Features and Pricing Remco explains that Saga charges per seat per month, with a price of 125 euros per user. Firms save an average of four to five hours a week and see an improvement in work quality, especially for juniors. The platform is designed to be a no-brainer for firms looking to improve efficiency and quality in legal work. He acknowledges the challenges of implementing new software but believes the value proposition is clear. Grid Review Feature Remco demonstrates the grid review feature, which extracts information from documents and provides detailed insights. The platform can handle various types of documents, such as lease agreements, Chamber of Commerce extractions, and shareholders agreements. The grid review feature highlights the context around extracted information, providing a comprehensive understanding. In conclusion, Remco emphasizes the platform's ability to save time and improve the accuracy of legal reviews.

In Episode 11 of Q After Hours, Alpha Warrior, Brad Zerbo, and Josh Reid host an open, free-flowing discussion centered on Q posts, historical context, and ongoing pattern recognition. The episode moves organically through interpretations of Q material, current observations, and audience-driven questions, emphasizing collaborative analysis rather than definitive conclusions. The hosts discuss how past drops connect to present circumstances, why timing and context matter, and how disinformation and misinterpretation can derail understanding. Listener participation plays a key role, shaping the conversation as the panel responds in real time to comments and prompts deeper examination. True to the Q After Hours format, the episode remains conversational and exploratory, encouraging critical thinking, discernment, and independent research rather than passive consumption.

The Context of White Supremacy hosts the weekly Compensatory Call-In 12/27/25. We encourage non-white listeners to dial in with their codified concepts, new terms, observations, research findings, workplace problems or triumphs, and/or suggestions on how best to Replace White Supremacy With Justice ASAP. This weekly broadcast examines current events from across the globe to learn what's happening in all areas of people activity. We cultivate Counter-Racist Media Literacy by scrutinizing journalists' word choices and using logic to deconstruct what is reported as "news." We'll use these sessions to hone our use of terms as tools to reveal truth, neutralize Racists/White people. #ANTIBLACKNESS Headed into the final weekend of 2025, President Donald J. Trump launched an attack on the area of the world known as Nigeria. Pres. Trump chose December 25th as the appropriate day to announce coordinated violence against the "ISIS Terrorist Scum" who've alleged hounded Christians (White people?) for years. Nigeria is one area of the world Gus has encouraged non-white people to study because of their enormous population of black people - which is exponentially increasing. We'll also review a recently released reports that suggests teenagers who consume even a small amount of cannabis experience decreased academic performance. This contradicts what many C.O.W.S.'s listeners insisted when they disputed Dr. Frances Cress Welsing, medical doctor, for discouraging cannabis consumption. #EndStageWhiteSupremacy #NoTHCForTeens # INVEST in The COWS – http://paypal.me/TheCOWS Cash App: https://cash.app/$TheCOWS CALL IN NUMBER: 720.716.7300 CODE 564943#
In this episode, we do a deep dive on Acts 3:19-21, one of the most ignored texts when it comes to NT eschatology. In Acts 3:19-21, Peter specifically notes that his view of eschatological matters is the one spoken of by the Old Testament prophets, and his timeline is not difficult to understand... it just might be problematic for some people's eschatological views.Time Stamps00:00 Introduction02:38 Context of Acts 3:19-2107:19 In-depth Analysis of Acts 3:19-2139:36 Comparison of OT Prophets51:45 Jewish Kingdom Expectations58:55 Putting Acts 3 within Luke-Acts1:04:41 Summary and ConclusionReferences Made in the Episode:"A Significant Chronological Problem for Postmillennialism in Acts 3:21" - https://petergoeman.com/a-significant-chronological-problem-for-postmillennialism-in-acts-321/“Implications of the Kingdom in Acts 3:19-21.” The Master's Seminary Journal 26, no. 1 (Spring 2015): 75–93. - https://petergoeman.com/papers/implications_of_kingdom_goeman.pdfWhy Most Translations are Wrong on Deut 4:29 and Why It Matters - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l9s4wqeZ3FoIf you have found the podcast helpful, consider leaving a review on Itunes or rating it on Spotify.

The Context of White Supremacy (C.O.W.S.) Radio Program hosts the weekly summit on Neutralizing Workplace Racism 12/25/25 Once again, RacistMan & RacistWoman do not take holidays, and neither does Gus T. Hopefully, most Victims of Racism are not required to work the plantation for White Jesus's birthday. After avoiding or briefly attending tacky holiday functions, we'll get back to the business of Producing Justice. Gus was especially intrigued by the case of Janique Sanders, a black female who was terminated from her position at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte. She alleges that she was fired in response to her recorded answer to a query about "DEI" at the school. Sanders reportedly told a member of "Accuracy in Media" that the university has reconfigured their "DEI" policy to comply with Pres. Trump's new mandates. The school allegedly investigated this exchange and terminated Sanders' employment. Gus is curious to know if her response violated policy and procedure and if there is a school-mandated position on how employees should respond to questions about the school's DEI position. #NoHolidaysForRacists INVEST in The COWS – http://paypal.me/TheCOWS Cash App: https://cash.app/$TheCOWS CALL IN NUMBER: 720.716.7300 CODE 564943#
For decades, leadership meant position: titles, layers, authority flowing downward. That model survived generations of management theory—but AI is dismantling it faster than most organizations realize. As automation absorbs middle management functions and teams flatten, leadership no longer comes from the org chart. It emerges from trust, psychological safety, and the ability to guide without control.Cedric and I explore how leadership is shifting from ladder to lattice, why younger generations demand clarity without micromanagement, and how learning, unlearning, and relearning have become survival skills—not growth perks. We dig into why performance without empathy burns people out, why transparency matters more than trust alone, and how leaders who can regulate themselves create teams that move faster, experiment more, and fail forward without fear.The takeaway isn't that leadership disappears—it evolves. From command-and-control to influence-without-authority. From perfection to iteration. From managing people to creating environments where people lead themselves.No nostalgia. No AI panic. Just a grounded roadmap for leaders navigating the post-AI reality.TL;DR* Hierarchy is eroding: AI collapses management layers—leadership becomes informal and horizontal.* Position ≠ influence: Future leaders are followed by choice, not title.* Ladder → lattice: Careers move sideways before up; growth isn't linear anymore.* Empathy scales performance: Psychological safety drives speed, creativity, and retention.* Learn–unlearn–relearn: AI shortens the cycle; leaders must evolve faster than systems.* Clarity creates confidence: Context + expectations beat control every time.* Transparency > trust: Explaining the why builds deeper alignment than directives.* Failure is data: Teams grow when mistakes don't equal punishment.Memorable lines* “Leadership doesn't disappear when hierarchy fades—it becomes visible.”* “AI removes managers, not the need for leadership.”* “Clarity builds confidence; confusion builds fear.”* “Trust tells people what—transparency tells them why.”* “You can't automate empathy—but you can scale it through culture.”GuestCedric B. Howard — Founder & CEO of Howard Executive Consulting; former higher-education administrator; leadership educator specializing in empathy, strategy, and organizational resilience.
[Philippians 4:13 WEB] I can do all things through Christ, who strengthens me. [Philippians 4:10-13] How I praise the Lord that you are concerned about me again. I know you have always been concerned for me, but you didn't have the chance to help me. [11] Not that I was ever in need, for I have learned how to be content with whatever I have. [12] I know how to live on almost nothing or with everything. I have learned the secret of living in every situation, whether it is with a full stomach or empty, with plenty or little. [13] For I can do everything through Christ, who gives me strength. ___________________ is something you have to learn. My _______________ does not control my ____________________. Paul wasn't measuring his joy by his ________________. [Philippians 4:18-19] At the moment I have all I need—and more! I am generously supplied with the gifts you sent me with Epaphroditus. They are a sweet-smelling sacrifice that is acceptable and pleasing to God. [19] And this same God who takes care of me will supply all your needs from his glorious riches, which have been given to us in Christ Jesus. God's _____________ will not run ____________. Psalm 23:1 The Lord is my shepherd; I have all that I need. If I'm not satisfied with what I ___________ I'll never be satisfied with what I _____________. [1 Timothy 6:6-8] Yet true godliness with contentment is itself great wealth. [7] After all, we brought nothing with us when we came into the world, and we can't take anything with us when we leave it. [8] So if we have enough food and clothing, let us be content.

Christmas Eve Stakes and a Narrow Path The Detroit Lions fly to Minneapolis with a slim, real path. Win at the Vikings on Christmas. Win at the Bears in Chicago. Hope the Packers lose out. That is the math. It is not pretty, but it exists. The other motivator is pride. Going from the best record in the NFC last year to the basement in the NFC North will not sit well with Dan Campbell or his locker room. The Lions are favored. They should play like a team with playoff vitality. Context matters in December in the NFL. Detroit needs urgency and clean execution. The margin is small. The opponent is wounded, not harmless. Vikings Quarterback Shuffle: Max Brosmer Time Minnesota ruled out JJ McCarthy on Tuesday afternoon. A hairline fracture in his hand ends his season. In comes Max Brosmer. He is an undrafted rookie with one start and mop-up reps. He has an arm and workable accuracy. He lost to the Seahawks, which happens to many. He is not Aaron Rodgers or Matthew Stafford. He is not even a fully healthy Jordan Love. That is a reprieve for a Detroit defense that has seen a run of top quarterbacks. The Vikings are battered elsewhere. Christian Darrisaw, their left tackle, is out. They have shut players down after elimination, similar to how the Lions just shut down Kirby Joseph. The depth chart is thin, but the skill talent around Brosmer still gives structure. Detroit must turn those absences into pressure and turnovers. A Defense That Hasn't Allowed a Passing TD in Six Games Here is the problem for the Lions offense. The Vikings have not allowed a passing touchdown in six straight games. That is the first time a team has done it since the 1989 Browns. This is a legit unit. They blitzed the Lions to great effect in the first meeting. They hammered the A gap. They made life hard for Jared Goff. Detroit's passing game has been inconsistent. Goff has been pretty good, but the interior pass protection must be better. Answers versus the A-gap pressure are non-negotiable. Quick decisions. Firm guards and center. Defined hot routes. Detroit Lions Podcast coverage this week centers on interior protection, blitz answers, and a battered Vikings offense. If the Lions cannot block inside, points will be scarce again. What It Means in Minneapolis and Beyond This sets up a grind. Expect Detroit to lean on pass rush against a backup left tackle and an inexperienced quarterback. Expect Minnesota to heat up Goff and test Detroit's A-gap integrity. Field position matters. So do red zone calls when passing touchdowns are hard to find. Win, and the Lions keep the playoff thread intact and roll into Chicago with purpose. Lose, and last place looms. The formula is simple. Protect the pocket inside. Tackle after the catch. Finish drives with touchdowns. It is Christmas in the NFL. Style points can wait. The Lions need a road win to keep the season alive. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H7n9Z9vYgPU #detroitlions #lions #detroitlionspodcast #a-gappressure #interiorpassprotection #jaredgoff #maxbrosmer #jjmccarthy #christiandarrisaw #backuplefttackle #undraftedrookie #sixstraightgames #passingtouchdown Learn more about your ad choices.

The Context of White Supremacy welcomes Cody McDevitt. A White Man and award winning journalist, McDevitt is a Pennsylvania resident and the founder of the Rosedale Oral History Project. Last week, Gus T. spoke with Dr. Emily Leib last week, and she told us that her White grandparents are Beaver County residents. Gus checked immediately, and, of course, Beaver County is a Racially Restricted Region of western Pennsylvania - which Dr. Leib seemed to already know. Upon further investigation, Gus found out that Racists purged a group of black people from this region in 1933. A tad south, Racists in Johnstown also kicked out their population of dark people a decade earlier. McDevitt penned Banished from Johnstown: Racist Backlash in Pennsylvania. This book reveals much about the System of White Supremacy and what it means to be classified as White. Interestingly, so called Mexicans were also told to “beat it” along with the niggras. However, there was intervention on their behalf that was not extended to black people. Pay particular attention to Mr. McDevitt's response to Gus's definition of Racism and his constant references to other non-white people's books and views on Racism. This includes Isabel Wilkerson's abomination Caste (#2ndWorstBookEver). #BlackGetBack #RaciallyRestrictedRegions INVEST in The COWS – http://paypal.me/TheCOWS Cash App: https://cash.app/$TheCOWS CALL IN NUMBER: 720.716.7300 CODE 564943#
Send us a textOn this "take two" episode (after a technical mishap lost the first recording), Scott and Mike welcome back Jeff Cutter, founder of WIITT Selling (What Is Important To Them). Jeff breaks down the fundamental flaw in most sales processes: the obsession with our decks, our products, and our preparation, while completely ignoring the customer's narrative.Jeff shares how this mindset shift started early—selling his neighbors not on a mowed lawn, but on the freedom to ride their bikes on the weekend. The trio discusses why sales reps often get stuck at the "context level" (activities, features, specs) and fail to reach the "emotional level" where decisions are actually made.Key Takeaways:Define WIITT: It stands for What Is Important To Them. If you don't know the specific problem and the emotion attached to it, you are just guessing.The "Context" Trap: Most CRMs are filled with "activities" (sent email, had meeting), but lack intelligence on the actual problem. You need to move from "What are you doing?" to "How does this problem make you feel?"Co-Author the Story: Don't hijack the conversation with your own pitch. Use mirroring and emotional labeling to stay in the customer's story until you uncover the root cause.The Jeep Theory: Citing Clotaire Rapaille, Jeff explains that customers often lie (unintentionally) about what they want (e.g., safety), when they truly buy based on a deeper emotional code (e.g., freedom/open road).Guest Resources: Check out Jeff's free guide, "Stop Guessing, Take Control of Your CRM Intelligence" at wiittselling.com.Support the showScott SchlofmanMike Williams - Cell 801-635-7773 #sales #podcast #customerfirst #relationships #success #pipeline #funnel #sales success #selling #salescoach

The Epstein estate tried to shut down the lawsuit Ghislaine Maxwell filed against it by arguing that her claims were legally baseless and strategically opportunistic. Maxwell had sued the estate seeking reimbursement for legal fees and protection she claimed Epstein had promised her, but the executors countered that no such binding agreement existed. They portrayed her demand for indemnification as both speculative and self-serving, especially given her criminal conviction and the mountain of evidence tying her to Epstein's trafficking operation. In their view, Maxwell was attempting to shift responsibility for her own conduct onto a dead man's estate that already faced enormous financial pressure from survivor settlements and ongoing litigation.To reinforce their position, the estate argued that Maxwell's lawsuit was essentially an effort to rewrite history—attempting to cast herself as someone entitled to Epstein's financial shield despite her central role in enabling his crimes. They emphasized that the estate had no obligation to fund her defense, especially when her actions were outside the scope of any legitimate employment or partnership and were, instead, criminal in nature. The executors also noted that satisfying Maxwell's claims would siphon money away from compensation intended for survivors, contradicting the estate's publicly stated commitments. Ultimately, their motion to dismiss framed Maxwell's lawsuit as a legally flimsy maneuver designed to grab resources she was never owed and to distance herself from the consequences of her own conduct.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

In this episode of Context, we explore the historical, philosophical, and ethical implications of artificial intelligence, drawing on examples from world history, literature, and modern AI research. We examine pivotal moments in the history of technology—from Ming China's abandonment of oceanic exploration 600 years ago to the Cold War's embrace of nuclear power 60 years ago—to frame the long-term liabilities of technological progress. This episode culminates in a simple but haunting idea: the greatest risk of artificial intelligence may not be the violent destruction of humanity, but its painless euthanasia. Not a civilization wiped out by its inventions, but one that trades the ordeal of being human for the ease of being entertained into extinction. History's rule is progress. But progress for its own sake has never been humanity's purpose. Purpose has to be chosen by every generation. If AI can make everything infinitely easy, it may also make everything infinitely meaningless. This episode asks whether we are willing to keep choosing struggle, curiosity, and wonder—or whether we're prepared to outsource meaning itself, and quietly accept The Great Silence that follows.

Episode 155 – Back in Charge: Rice Anchors Arsenal's Away-Day ResponseArsenal return to winning ways with a controlled, professional 1–0 victory at Everton — a result that mattered as much for how it was done as the points themselves.Declan Rice sets the tone with a commanding midfield performance as Arsenal quieten Goodison Park, manage pressure moments, and reassert their standards away from home. We break down the structure, the control, and why the scoreline flattered Everton more than it reflected the performance.We discuss Ødegaard's role, Arsenal's chance creation and wastefulness, the penalty decisions, and whether this felt like a genuine reset after recent noise. There's also analysis on Rice's influence, Calafiori's impact, and why this was a quietly important win.In part two, we whip around the grounds, dive into another busy VAR weekend, address the Arteta contract noise, and look ahead to the Carabao Cup clash with Crystal Palace — including rotation, priorities, and what Arteta might do next.Control restored.

In this episode of The Defiant Podcast, Uniswap founder Hayden Adams joins us right as the UNIfication (Unification) proposal has moved to a final governance vote—a sweeping plan from Uniswap Labs + the Uniswap Foundation that would activate protocol fees, introduce a programmatic UNI burn, and realign how value accrues across the Uniswap ecosystem. We go deep on what's actually inside the proposal (and what isn't), why this moment feels like the end of one DeFi era and the start of another, and how years of “regulation by enforcement” shaped Uniswap's product decisions—down to Hayden's firsthand experience with debanking, legal pressure, and the chilling effect on builders. What we coverWhy UNIfication is being pitched as a once-in-a-cycle reset for UniswapThe real mechanics of the fee switch(es) (plural) and how the “token jar” burn design worksThe perceived tension between UNI token holders vs. equity/VC value capture and whether this vote changes thatWhy Uniswap wants to shift from “best frontend” to protocol-first infrastructure (APIs, ecosystem engineering, aggregator hooks)How Unichain fits into the broader strategy—and what “near-free trading” could mean in practiceGovernance backlash: is Uniswap becoming more centralized or more decentralized?Context: the vote is live! Hayden shared that the UNIfication proposal is now in the final governance vote stage.Subscribe for more founder-level conversations at the intersection of DeFi, regulation, and market structure.

The Context of White Supremacy hosts the weekly Compensatory Call-In 12/20/25. We encourage non-white listeners to dial in with their codified concepts, new terms, observations, research findings, workplace problems or triumphs, and/or suggestions on how best to Replace White Supremacy With Justice ASAP. This weekly broadcast examines current events from across the globe to learn what's happening in all areas of people activity. We cultivate Counter-Racist Media Literacy by scrutinizing journalists' word choices and using logic to deconstruct what is reported as "news." We'll use these sessions to hone our use of terms as tools to reveal truth, neutralize Racists/White people. #ANTIBLACKNESS Thankfully, the atmospheric river dumped historic flooding on Washington state, but Gus T. did not float away just yet. Also in Washington state, Steven Goldstine was sentenced to 5 years in greater confinement for detonating a pipe bomb near a black couple's vehicle on New Year's Eve 2024. A father-son duo are accused of a mass shooting attack at Australia's Bondi Beach, leaving 15 people people deceased. Initial reports attribute the attack to the so-called Islamic State. Here in the US, a group of terrorists was arrested for plotting a New Year's Eve bombing attack to announce their "anti-capitalist," "anti-government" beliefs. Affiliates of this group were arrested in California and Louisiana. And Bay Area residents continue to mourn the passing of the beloved albino reptile, Claude. To honor the deceased mutant, San Francisco residents plan to name a street after Claude. Gus can imagine having a toilet or trash can named for him. #EndStageWhiteSupremacy #INVEST in The COWS – http://paypal.me/TheCOWS Cash App: https://cash.app/$TheCOWS CALL IN NUMBER: 720.716.7300 CODE 564943#

The Context of White Supremacy hosts the weekly summit on Neutralizing Workplace Racism 12/18/25 The New York Times printed a column discussing the trauma of being at an office holiday party. Liquor consumption was the main culprit - and unruly White behavior. The NYT recommended no more than 2 drinks at the office party - alongside a bevy of constructive reasons for limited alcohol intake amongst co-workers. Gus T. recommends remaining sober for the entire event. It is massively important to be 100% when in the company of your colleagues. Interestingly, 'Bay Area Mom' reported that her colleagues consumed cannabis on the rooftop during their holiday office shindig. Apparently, children were present for this event. Additionally, Gus was stunned to read Milwaukee's WISN to find that a black male bus driver was falsely accused of operating a school bus while intoxicated. Joel Sills, a privileged black father of 3, was, ordered from the bus, publicly humiliated, and forced to take a breathalyzer - which he passed. #BeaverCounty INVEST in The COWS – http://paypal.me/TheCOWS Cash App: https://cash.app/$TheCOWS CALL IN NUMBER: 720.716.7300 CODE 564943#
Money, Happiness, and the Race You're Actually Running as a Clinic Owner Episode Overview In this episode, Danny shares his favorite book of the year — The Art of Spending Money by Morgan Housel — and why it hit so hard as a cash-based business owner. He breaks down how money, attention, and expectations shape your happiness, why comparison quietly wrecks clinic owners, and how to use your business as a vehicle for the life you actually want instead of letting it become your whole identity. Key Topics Covered Why money mindset is such a big problem in the PT profession Why Danny recommends Morgan Housel's books to clinic owners "May I Have Your Attention Please?" – how attention drives happiness The danger of comparing your clinic to someone else's revenue Context you never see behind other people's success "The Happiest People I Know" – business as vehicle vs. business as life Trading time for money vs. protecting what matters most Lifestyle creep and constantly moving the goalposts Defining the race you're running and saying no on purpose Why "no thank you" money is real wealth Book Recommendation: The Art of Spending Money Danny highlights The Art of Spending Money by Morgan Housel as his favorite book of the year and a perfect follow-up to Housel's earlier book, The Psychology of Money. While the title sounds like a pure finance book, Danny and his wife both felt it's really about: How you make decisions around money How those decisions impact your happiness and contentment How self-awareness around money affects your quality of life For clinic owners, it's especially relevant because you're: Charging for your own services Paying staff and managing payroll Using money as a tool for growth, security, and freedom Attention, Comparison, and Feeling Miserable Danny breaks down a section from the book called "May I Have Your Attention Please?", which focuses on how your attention influences your happiness. Example: Your clinic is doing ~$500k a year. You're profitable, love your niche, and like your team and culture. Then you meet another owner doing $2M a year. If you put all your attention on that comparison, you go from proud to deflated in seconds: "I'm behind." "I must be doing something wrong." But you have no idea: What advantages they had going in (investors, family help, safety nets) What trade-offs they made (health, marriage, time with kids) Whether they'd actually trade lives with you If they're at $2M but wrecked their health and relationships, while you're at $500k with strong health and a solid home life, who's really winning? It depends on your values. The point: if you want to stay miserable, keep comparing yourself to everyone else. Business as Vehicle vs. Business as Your Whole Life Danny then shifts to another section: "The Happiest People I Know." The big idea: Your business should be the vehicle that supports the life you want. Most owners accidentally let the business become their life. He gives a simple comparison: Owner A: Works 60 hours/week, makes $300k. Owner B: Works 30 hours/week, makes $200k. Neither is right or wrong. It depends on your season of life and what you value more: extra money or extra time. Questions to ask: Do I want the extra $100k badly enough to trade 30 more hours a week? What am I saying "no" to when I say "yes" to more growth? Is this growth actually changing my life in a meaningful way? Lifestyle Creep and Moving the Goalposts Danny explains how success usually comes with two hidden traps: Lifestyle creep: As you earn more, your spending grows to match. Constantly moving the goalposts: Every time you hit one target, you immediately raise the bar. Result: you feel like you always have to keep saying yes to more growth, more risk, and more time in the business just to sustain a lifestyle you drifted into. Instead, he challenges clinic owners to: Define a clear income and lifestyle goal on purpose. Live below that level even as income grows. Build "no thank you" money – enough margin to say no to opportunities that don't fit. Run Your Own Race Danny uses a running analogy he often shares with PT Biz clients: If you're running a 10K and someone else is running a marathon, your paces and training look different. You can't compare your numbers and expect them to match. In business: Some owners just want one great clinic that they keep for decades. Others want a multi-location platform they eventually sell. Neither is better. But if you don't know which race you're running, you'll: Say yes to things that pull you away from what matters most. End up living a life you never intentionally chose. Big Takeaways Money is a tool, not a scoreboard. Your attention determines how happy or miserable you feel about your progress. Success without alignment can feel like a trap. Define your race, your goals, and your trade-offs on purpose. Real wealth is the ability to say "no" and still be fine.
