This weekend we were joined by Jake Riley from Pacers Beyond the Buzzer for a fun crossover episode celebrating Pacers basketball. Before diving into the X's and O's, we share how each of us became Pacers fans, what inspired us to start creating content, and our journeys into the Pacers podcasting community. From there, we discuss the biggest offseason storylines surrounding the franchise before each revealing three bold predictions for the upcoming 2026-27 season. Which young player is poised for a breakout? Who could surprise everyone? And where do the Pacers ultimately stack up in the Eastern Conference? We wrap things up with plenty of laughs and some lighthearted Pacers banter to close out what was simply an awesome conversation with one of the great people in the Pacers media space.

As she was idly scrolling Bluesky a few days ago, Alicia (@alicianwonderland.bsky.social) came across the ultimate Mad-Lib of a skeet: "roald dahl's grandson is a former london-based journalist who once freelanced for the daily dot and then married princess raiyah of jordan during covid but then got divorced and moved to the US where he became a cop in south carolina and just married an american tiktoker." Ask and ye shall receive, as they say, and listeners, believe it or not, it kind of all makes sense. Sponsors Upgrade your every day!

Nobody teaches you how to read the contract you sign. In this crossover between SNMA Presents The Lounge and The Black Doctors Podcast, residents get candid about what they didn't know going in — benefits they never compared, the annual promotion decision they assumed was automatic, and the culture of silence around programs that let people go. Attorneys Greg Care and Michael Johnson answer the hard questions: when do alarm bells warrant a lawyer, how do you respond to a verbal reprimand, and does a dismissal follow you forever? Practical, unvarnished, and overdue. Not legal advice — but close to it.

Alicia - at the prompting of a listener - started to deep dive into Andrew and Sarah's adult daughters when she learned that an old boyfriend of Sarah's, who has also been an ally and patron over the decades, has died at the age of 88. Paddy McNally and Sarah dated for a few years beginning when she was 20 and he was 42. He also amassed a fortune of $800 million or so, and Royal watchers suspect that he intended to keep on taking care of Sarah Ferguson.

Higher Ed AV Podcast with Joe WayEpisode 361The AV Life Crossover Episode with Nancy BlanchardWhat happens when the scheduled host does not show up? Joe Way and Nancy Blanchard take over the show, turn it into an unexpected crossover episode, and have the kind of honest AV conversation that could never have been planned.Nancy, Territory Sales Manager for ScreenBeam, joins Joe to discuss her long-standing connection to the higher education AV community and why supporting HETMA has remained important throughout her career. She explains why successful manufacturer relationships must be built around education, trust, and understanding the customer's actual challenges—not simply pushing products or reading through a list of technical specifications.The conversation explores why applications and installations matter more than feature dumps, how manufacturers should evaluate and act upon customer feedback, and why higher education institutions need direct access to product roadmaps, beta programs, and the people making development decisions. Nancy also shares how ScreenBeam approaches enterprise-grade wireless presentation, security, customer requests, digital signage, and the continued development of its platform.Joe and Nancy then turn their attention to consultants, integrators, architects, and manufacturers. They examine where projects can go wrong, how competing priorities influence system designs, and why every participant in the process must remain focused on protecting the end user from the beginning of a project through its completion.The episode closes with a spirited rapid round covering hardware versus software, classrooms versus conference rooms, Teams versus Zoom, wired versus wireless systems, standardization, ISE, artificial intelligence, video bars, professional responsiveness, and whether “good enough AV” can sometimes truly be good enough.It is spontaneous, occasionally argumentative, deeply personal, and exactly what happens when two friends from the AV industry are handed microphones with no real plan.Connect with Nancy BlanchardFind Nancy on LinkedIn and X at @NancyBlanchard.Email: nblanchard@screenbeam.comLearn more about ScreenBeam and its enterprise wireless presentation, collaboration, and digital signage solutions at ScreenBeam.com.

This week, That Tech Pod does something a little different, teaming up with Steve Rapp and Tim Garner from The Sales Docket Podcast for a crossover pod that bridges technology and modern sales leadership. What starts as a discussion about sales quickly evolves into a candid conversation about trust, technical expertise, AI, career growth, and why relationships still matter more than ever. If you enjoy this conversation, be sure to check out The Sales Docket Podcast for more discussions on modern sales leadership, go-to-market strategy, and revenue growth.Kevin and Laura compare notes with Steve and Tim on what separates great sales professionals from everyone else, including the critical role sales engineers play as the technical “source of truth.” The group discusses why integrity is a competitive advantage, how long-term customer relationships are built through honesty rather than hype, and why the fundamentals of listening, follow-up, and curiosity haven't changed, even as technology has.The conversation also tackles one of today's biggest questions: what AI means for the future of technology careers. While opinions differ on how dramatically AI will reshape technical roles, everyone agrees that soft skills, communication, and the ability to translate complex technology into business value will remain indispensable. The episode closes with reflections on what hundreds of podcast interviews have taught the hosts about innovation, entrepreneurship, and the common traits shared by successful leaders across industries.Whether you work in sales, engineering, cybersecurity, legal tech, or simply want a thoughtful conversation about where technology and business are headed, this crossover episode delivers practical insights, plenty of laughs, and an honest look at what still matters in an AI-driven world.The Sales Docket Podcast, hosted by Steve Rapp and Tim Garner, is a show focused on modern sales leadership, go-to-market strategy, and the real-world challenges revenue teams face as markets and buyer behavior evolve. Steve and Tim bring hands-on experience from building and scaling sales organizations, and their conversations tend to center on practical execution rather than theory, covering what actually works in today's competitive selling environment.

What happens after the fire of yeshiva goes out?This week I'm sharing an episode from Torat JLIC, a podcast I love, one that takes the complexity of modern life seriously instead of talking around it.The guest for this episode is Rav Uri Lorkis, who just wrapped a few years as JLIC rabbi in Michigan and now works as a startup coach. We dig into the real transition every yeshiva guy faces: how do you carry that intensity into the next stage of life, when the schedule, the chavrusas, and the structure are gone?Beyond the practical adjustments is a deeper crisis: Is it possible to live up to our values? Or will the daily grind dictate our agenda? Rav Uri brings some sharp, honest insight. Make sure to check out the Torat JLIC feed for more great content!
