Last year, President Donald Trump issued an executive order aimed at ending gender-affirming care for transgender children and teenagers under 19. Since then, the Department of Health and Human Services proposed a new rule that would ban hospitals offering that care from receiving Medicaid and Medicare funding. The attacks on transition-related care are having a profound effect on transgender kids and their families, but they're also having an impact on health care providers. Today, we'll hear more. But first: progress on a deal to avoid a partial government shutdown.

After more than a decade living in the U.S. without permanent legal status, Alix Dick calculated the cost of her survival: $1.9 million. That figure includes everything from wage theft and underpayment to complex PTSD and under-the-table medical visits. Alix talks about those things with Anita as she discusses her new book “The Cost of Being Undocumented,” co-written with Stanford University professor Antero Garcia. Alix traces her personal story from growing up in Sinaloa, Mexico to fleeing to the U.S. with her younger brother when she was 20. She and Antero discuss misconceptions about undocumented workers, describe the challenges of telling Alix's story, and talk about the many costs that didn't make the tally sheet — like lost dreams.Meet the guests:- Alix Dick, activist, writer, filmmaker and co-author of "The Cost of Being Undocumented"- Antero Garcia, associate professor in the Graduate School of Education at Stanford and co-author of "The Cost of Being Undocumented"Read the transcript | Review the podcast on your preferred platformFollow Embodied on Instagram Leave a message for Embodied

Construction is one of the least digitized industries in the world, and not because it resists technology. It resists bad technology. In this episode of Eye on AI, Craig Smith sits down with Olek Paraska, CTO of Togal AI, to break down why construction productivity has barely improved in 50 years and why pre-construction is the real bottleneck holding the industry back. Olek explains how most estimating and takeoff work is still done manually, why automating this phase can unlock massive efficiency gains, and how AI works best in construction when it acts as a perception and reasoning layer rather than a replacement for human judgment. The conversation explores computer vision, agentic AI, human-in-the-loop systems, and why respecting real-world constraints is essential for AI to deliver real ROI. It also looks ahead to a future where floor plans, materials, costs, and constructability can be reasoned about together, long before construction begins. This episode is a deep dive into how AI can finally move construction forward by solving the right problems, in the right order.

In this episode of FinTech Layer Cake, Reggie Young sits down with Gokul Dhingra, Co-Founder and CEO of Narrative, to unpack how AI is reshaping compliance, oversight, and growth in the fintech ecosystem. Narrative is tackling one of the industry's biggest pain points—the rising cost of compliance and risk management—by turning oversight into a source of efficiency and even competitive advantage.Gokul shares how banks and fintechs can align around shared objectives, why complaints data is an overlooked goldmine for growth, and how Narrative uses AI to reduce operational thrash while keeping humans in the loop. The conversation digs into the misconceptions about AI “hallucinations,” the subtle ways bias shows up in both humans and algorithms, and why empathy is the ultimate differentiator in building trust with customers and regulators alike.If you've wondered what it takes to scale innovation in a highly regulated environment without sacrificing trust—or how AI can be deployed responsibly in financial services—this episode offers a roadmap from someone building it in real time.

In this episode of The Liquidity Event, AJ is joined by Caitlin, Brooklyn Fi's Director of Financial Planning, to unpack why the math of modern life feels so broken. They start with the true cost of having a stay-at-home parent, breaking down why headlines claiming it only takes $90,000 a year fall apart once you factor in taxes, housing, childcare backups, and real-world spending. From there, the conversation turns to how private equity is quietly reshaping essential services — from volunteer fire departments and hospitals to fertility clinics and Toys "R" Us — and why consolidation often leads to higher costs and worse outcomes. The episode wraps with a lighter discussion on sleep chronotypes and early mornings, listener questions on Botox tipping etiquette, inheritance planning and startup risk, and why holding more cash (in a high-yield savings account) can actually make investors feel more confident in uncertain markets.

Are you confident in knowing the difference between trial strategy and trial tactics?   Because ultimately the question is, does your jury understand what you're doing?   Today, we're looking at how to identify a clear strategy as the overarching theme that guides the trial, followed by the tactics to achieve that strategy.   There's a risk of confusing the two, including wasted time and causing confusion for jurors. The best strategies combine preparation and flexibility when you're in the courtroom.   And remember, focus groups can test strategies early in the trial preparation process, showing you where to refine those strategies early.   In this episode: Confusing strategy and tactics can lead to juror confusion. Tactics should be flexible and adaptable during trial. Jurors expect consistency in case presentation. Wasting time on tactics without a clear theme can cost cases. Focus groups can help test and refine trial strategies early. You can also watch this episode on my YouTube Channel: Trial Strategy v.

As artificial intelligence drives unprecedented growth in electricity demand, data centers are rapidly becoming some of the largest—and most consequential—loads on the U.S. power grid. Utilities that haven't seen meaningful load growth in decades now face mounting interconnection backlogs, rising costs, and growing concerns about reliability, emissions, and equity.In this episode of People, Places, Planet, host Sebastian Duque Rios is joined by Dalia Patino-Echeverri of Duke University and Aroon Vijaykar of Emerald AI to explore whether load flexibility offers a way forward. They examine how data centers and AI stress today's grid, how modest and carefully designed curtailment could unlock significant new capacity without overbuilding infrastructure, and what emerging technologies and policies—from flexible interconnection to software-driven demand response—could mean for electricity affordability, grid reliability, and the future of AI development in the United States.The Driving Forces Behind a New Wave of Electricity Demand (2:12)What's Constraining the Grid?

Over the last 48-72 hours, I completely fell down the rabbit hole with a new AI tool called Clawdbot (rebranded TODAY to Moltbot). Instead of my planned episode about what's on my mind in January 2026, I decided to share my raw, unfiltered experience setting up this AI assistant that runs 24/7 and integrates with all my tools. This isn't your typical AI chat interface—it's an always-on assistant I can text through Telegram that proactively handles research, automates workflows, and maintains institutional memory of all my content. I'll walk you through exactly how I discovered it, my security-first setup approach using a virtual private server, the learning curve (spoiler: it took me until 1:30 AM), and the specific ways I'm using it now. From automated guest research and fitness tracking to content ideation from my 300+ podcast transcripts, this tool is changing how I think about AI assistance. But I'm also wrestling with bigger questions about what this means for content creation, human creativity, and where we draw the line on AI-generated work. → Alex Finn video → Learn about Clawdbot → Setup video from Neil Stephenson → Setup video from VelvetShark Full transcript and show notes⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ *** TIMESTAMPS (00:00) Discovery Through Alex Finn's Video (02:50) What Actually Is Clawdbot?

Send us a textHealthcare fraud and corruption are not limited to one type of country or healthcare system. It exists in low income, middle income, and wealthy nations alike. What differs is how it shows up, how visible it is, and who ends up paying the price.In this episode of Causes or Cures, Dr. Eeks speaks with Professor Graham Brooks, an international expert on healthcare corruption and criminal justice, about how fraud and corruption operate across healthcare systems worldwide. Rather than treating corruption as a problem of “elsewhere,” this conversation focuses on the shared vulnerabilities that allow it to persist in both resource limited settings and highly regulated, well funded systems, like the US. We discuss:What healthcare corruption looks like in low and middle income countries compared with wealthy countries, and why both are vulnerable in different waysReal world examples of healthcare corruption that illustrate how these schemes operate across contextsWho ultimately pays for corruption, including taxpayers, patients, and people at the pharmacy counter, regardless of national income levelHow much money is lost globally to healthcare fraud and corruption, and why those estimates almost certainly underestimate the true costWhy healthcare systems filled with trained professionals, regulations, and oversight remain surprisingly easy to exploitHow conflicts of interest and financial incentives can quietly shape care, guidelines, and clinical decisions across countriesWhere major corruption schemes tend to concentrate today, from billing and procurement to referrals and pricing practicesWhether data and AI can help detect corruption earlier without turning healthcare into a surveillance systemWhat patients and clinicians can realistically do to reduce their risk of exploitationAbout the GuestProfessor Graham Brooks is an international expert on corruption in healthcare and criminal justice. He has advised governments, law enforcement bodies, and international organizations on counter fraud and anti corruption efforts, and has been a keynote speaker at major conferences across Europe.He has participated in United Kingdom Cabinet Office round table discussions on anti corruption, worked with the Royal United Services Institute on money laundering and online business risks, and currently serves as a member of the Group of Experts for the European Healthcare Fraud and Corruption Network.Professor Brooks has published extensively with international collaborators and is the author of Healthcare Corruption: Causes, Costs, Consequences and Criminal Justice.Work with me?

"Obamacare Exempt" Plans - STLDI and ACA Coverage: Costs, Choice, and Tradeoffs Joe Grogan is joined by Michael Cannon (Cato Institute) to break down short-term, limited-duration insurance (STLDI), also known as “Obamacare-exempt” plans. They explain why STLDI can be far cheaper than ACA exchange coverage, how renewal guarantees work, and why allowing more consumer choice can reduce pressure on exchange risk pools. They also dig into the politics of pre-existing conditions, how ACA rules change insurers' incentives, and why coverage debates often miss the real drivers of cost, access, and quality. The conversation ends with a broader look at public trust, healthcare fear, and how policy choices shape what insurers can and cannot do. Timestamps / Chapters00:01 – Intro00:23 – Michael Cannon joins + what STLDI is02:27 – STLDI explained: “Obamacare-exempt” plans, renewal guarantees, and lower premiums06:00 – ACA history: why STLDI was restricted07:46 – International comparisons + pre-existing conditions incentives and the Colette Briggs story12:10 – Why healthcare stays broken: regulation, lobbying, and “government-designed” systems16:59 – Subsidies and the politics of pre-existing conditions22:22 – Renewal guarantees, employer tax exclusion, and why Medicare entered the picture30:37 – Public trust after Brian Thompson's murder and Cannon's letter41:56 – Wrap-up In This Conversation What STLDI is and how it compares to ACA exchange plans Why renewal guarantees matter for long-term protection Risk pools, affordability, and why the “junk insurance” debate persists Pre-existing conditions, politics, and how incentives affect networks and access Why employer-based coverage and Medicare policy shaped today's system Key Takeaways STLDI is a legal, consumer-driven coverage option that can reduce premiums and expand choice. Renewal guarantees are a major consumer protection that changes the long-term risk story. Pre-existing conditions policy is often debated emotionally, but incentives determine outcomes. About Our GuestMichael Cannon is the Director of Health Policy Studies at the Cato Institute and a leading voice on the ACA, health insurance regulation, and market-based health reforms.

The Trump Administration is withdrawing the US from the scientific Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change or IPCC, which reports agreement about the basic scientific facts of global warming and the impact of core technologies to address it. A lead author of the IPCC fourth assessment report in 2007 explains how the fossil fuel industry has long pushed for such an action.  Also, the burning of fossil fuels is linked to some 300,000 deaths in America every year, not to mention the related carbon emissions that promote global warming.

Prices at the supply house keep climbing, and chlorine isn't bouncing back to 2016. We dig into the real reasons chemical costs surged 100–160% in just five years—pandemic shocks, the Biolab fire, transportation and regulatory pressures, payroll hikes—and why those forces keep a firm floor under today's pricing. From tabs and liquid chlorine to cal-hypo and specialty products, we connect the dots between market dynamics and the margins on your route.Then we get practical. You'll hear how to stop absorbing chemical costs without alienating good clients: move trichlor tablets out of your monthly rate, bill a 50‑pound bucket upfront, or use a one-time halfway subsidy to transition. We outline when to charge for shock events, how to set a seasonal algaecide or conditioner fee for enzymes and phosphate removers, and how to document usage so problem pools don't sink your profits. If a timer fails, a party trashes the water, or the system sits in spa mode, you'll have a clear, fair policy ready to go.Finally, we walk through the pricing math that calms nerves. A $10 monthly increase across an average route can more than offset one or two cancellations, and small annual bumps are easier for customers to accept than sporadic leaps. We share language for a simple rate letter grounded in facts—chemical inflation, fuel, payroll—and a framework for tracking costs per account so you know when to adjust. The result is a service business that stays profitable, transparent, and sustainable, even when chlorine keeps inching up.• structural reasons chlorine prices stay elevated• why bundling tabs and shocks destroys margins• options to bill tablets upfront or split the first bucket• when and how to charge for shock and specialty chems• using a seasonal algaecide or conditioner fee• the math and mindset for small annual price increases• writing a clear, honest rate increase letter• handling pushback and customer churn without panic• tracking costs per account to spot problem pools• links to more episodes and coaching resourSend us a textSupport the Pool Guy Podcast Show Sponsors!

Four years ago, Heather McGhee examined a question at the heart of American life: Why do so many Americans believe that progress for one group means loss for another? She traveled the country talking to factory workers, homeowners who'd lost everything, organizers, and scholars, trying to understand where that belief comes from, and what it costs us. This MLK Day, McGhee spoke with Tonya Mosley about this and how it comes on the heels of President Trump's comments that civil rights protections resulted in white people being “very badly treated.” McGhee's book is ‘The Sum of Us.'  Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy
