In 2007, two Harvard researchers added a splash of balsamic vinegar to beer.  When drinkers knew the beer contained vinegar, they hated it.  But when the researchers told them “this is our MIT brew," the majority loved it.  The study reveals the secrets behind marketing.  On today's episode of Nudge with award-winning science writer David Robson, we explain how good marketing can shape our perception.  Link to the bonus episode: ⁠https://nudge.kit.com/86d3e39845⁠  Become an FSB member: https://get.fsb.org.uk/nudge/ Read the Expectation Effect: https://amzn.to/4dvkb3s  David's website: https://davidrobson.me/  David's Substack: https://davidarobson.substack.com/  ---  Today's sources:  Amar, M., Ariely, D., Bar-Hillel, M., Carmon, Z., & Ofir, C.

Guest: Melissa Jones, SIU Investigator at Crum & Forster ("OSINT Millennial")Host Kelly Paxton sits down with Melissa Jones — insurance fraud investigator, OSINT trainer, and self-described "OSINT Millennial" — for a wide-ranging conversation about building a career in Special Investigations, the art of digital digging, and why connection (both online and on the ball hockey rink) drives everything Melissa does.Episode HighlightsFraudster Dinner Date Melissa kicks things off with an unexpected pick: convicted FBI spy Robert Hanssen, someone she studied in her criminal justice master's program. Kelly counters with the usual suspects (Charles Ponzi, Elizabeth Holmes) but appreciates the espionage angle.Who Steals More — Men or Women? A detour into gender and fraud data, including a striking stat Kelly cites from a colleague's fire department embezzlement research: women make up only about 3% of fire department staff but account for roughly 28% of thefts. Melissa admits her own SIU team doesn't currently track gender breakdowns — but wants to start.From Direct Bill Clerk to SIU Investigator Melissa traces her 12-year (and counting) career at Crum & Forster: a psychology degree from Ramapo College, an entry-level insurance ops job in 2014, a move into policy operations, and a leap into the Special Investigations Unit as an analyst in 2017 after spotting an internal job posting. She was promoted to investigator in 2022 and now works alongside a nationwide SIU team of 15–16 people.Why Insurers Have the Data Advantage Kelly and Melissa talk shop on how much visibility insurance companies have into patterns of behavior — from claims data to spending anomalies — and how that data gets put to work across property/casualty, auto, workers' comp, and even pet insurance claims.Building the "OSINT Millennial" Brand Melissa describes how she got into public speaking after approaching fellow investigator Joe Stevenson at a conference in Hersheypark in 2019, which led to her first joint presentation. She's since built her own social-media-investigations talks under the "OSINT Millennial" tagline, using only publicly available content (never her active casework) to teach audiences — including a recent stop in Leominster, MA that packed the room.Industry ShoutoutsOsmosisCon and Cynthia Hetherington — Melissa has FOMO for missing this year's conference and hopes to attend next year.Ritu Gill and other women in the OSINT/investigations space Melissa admires and reshares often.Christina Fiscella— noted for her work on gray-collar crime and elder fraud cases.Hank Asher/"Hank Venice" (as referenced in the episode) and Brian from Diligentia Group — mentors and friends from the investigations conference circuit.Age, Assumptions, and Social Media Investigations A deep dive into why investigators shouldn't assume older subjects are "off the grid" — and why understanding how each platform works (not just whether someone uses it) is the real skill in OSINT investigations.Fraud in Pop Culture Melissa's take: reality TV like Survivor is basically fraud and manipulation for sport. Kelly recommends checking out a Hacks episode (Season 5) with a surprisingly relevant survivor-style storyline.Investigative Philosophy: "Dig" and "Trust but Triangulate" Both hosts bond over shared investigator vocabulary — the instinct to "dig," and Kelly's own mantra, "trust but triangulate," as a more generous alternative to "trust but verify."Ball Hockey — More Than a Hobby Melissa opens up about her ball hockey career, playing internationally (including in the Dominican Republic) and around the U.S. (Nashville, Buffalo, Vegas), plus a women's league in South Jersey. She credits the sport with building a diverse, tight-knit community — and even a professional networking connection with a teammate who works in arson investigation.NJSIA Shoutout Melissa is a board member and incoming Vice President of the New Jersey Special Investigators Association (NJSIA), which is gearing up for its 35th annual conference and networking seminar in Atlantic City this year. All are welcome to attend.https://www.linkedin.com/in/melissajones33/https://www.instagram.com/osintmillennial/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g6P0m2KpUWA

BIFF! This week, we're focusing on Album 1-2 punches...that is, albums where the first two songs knock you out. BANG! Our Third Lad is Ben Crum from long-running Elephant 6 band Great Lakes. POW! More than 25 years and eight records on from Great Lakes' classic debut, Ben Crum returns with a fantastic new Great Lakes album, Don't Swim Too Close (HHBTM Records). The immediately accessible record draws from classic rock tradition, echoing both the Americana spirit of The Band and Neil Young and the proto-indie rock of Television and the Velvet Underground. Crum's dry humor bubbles up throughout, tempering heavy, earnest moments with wit. WHAMMO! This is very likely to be the only music podcast you listen to today that incorporates both boxing and Scuffy the Tugboat references. KO!!

A lot of skate scenes have legends on boards, but the real backbone is the person behind the camera who keeps the receipts. We're sitting with Jacksonville's own Bo Crum to talk about how North Florida skateboarding got documented from the early days at Kona Skate Park to the era of shoebox archives, shoulder-cam lines, and footage that still shapes how people remember the culture. Bo walks us through his origin story, moving from Tennessee to Jacksonville, learning transition, and linking up with skaters who became pillars of the region. From there we get into what it actually takes to film skateboarding when nobody's doing it yet: earning trust, stacking tapes, and capturing moments that don't feel historic until years later. We also talk about his new documentary series, Reflections, starting with Jamie “Fish” Alcorn, whose path from Kona local to custom motorcycle builder is the kind of story that only makes sense when you see the full arc. We don't dodge the harder stuff either. We dig into what “fair competition” could mean as skate contests and sports in general try to balance inclusion with divisions, and we talk about why women's skateboarding grows fastest when the environment feels truly welcoming. Add in Kona memories, injuries, vert ramp reality checks, and travel stories from the skate media world, and you've got a conversation that feels like a real snapshot of skateboarding as a lifetime culture. If you connect with this one, subscribe, share it with a friend who loves skate videos, and leave a review so more people can find these North Florida skateboarding stories.

How did the phrase, “diversity, equity and inclusion”—DEI—which sounds like a positive thing, get such a bad rap? The answer lies in how the concept has often been introduced. Our guest, Dr. Melissa Crum, explains that most people aren't reacting to the actual idea of DEI; they're reacting to how the idea was introduced. Instead of hearing, “Let's look at systems that create problems,” people hear, “Oh, I'm the problem?!” And once that happens, people shut down.Dr. Crum helps people separate themselves as individuals from the systems they live in. She's not telling her listeners they're bad people. She tells them there are larger patterns in which we all operate. When people hear that distinction, meaningful conversation happens. Dr. Crum reflects on power in everyday moments. Even something as simple as how you talk to server in a restaurant can reflect a power dynamic. It's about being aware that not everyone you deal with has the same ability, or relative power, to respond or push back in those moments.Context matters. A word or phrase that feels harmless—or even friendly—to one person might carry a completely different meaning for someone else based on their experiences. Instead of assuming everyone hears things the same way, Dr. Crum encourages us to be a little more curious and flexible in how we communicate.Promoting inclusion doesn't come with one training session. This is a marathon, not a sprint. You can't expect people to completely rethink years—or decades—of assumptions in a couple hours. That's part of why some of those past trainings backfired. People were overwhelmed, and nothing really stuck.Promoting DEI means examining how an organization actually functions. Just saying, “We value inclusion,” does nothing, but defining what inclusion means in real situations—like hiring, promotions, meetings, decision-making—brings meaningful change. And what does a business get in return? Employees who feel valued are engaged in their work. Turnover decreases, and productivity increases. DEI is good for business.

Today we'll spend hour one going over all the headlines from the weekend, including some surprising candor from the AKLEG over what's really holding up the gasline. Then in hour two we'll talk to gubernatorial candidate Adam Crum.

Every follower of Jesus has experienced and expected kindness from God. It is an underserved kindness.We are to extend a kindness toward others as we have received kindness from God (2 Samuel 9:1-13). It may be an underserved kindness.Who do you and I need to extend a kindness to in our lives?

Author Tiffany Crum joins Alan and Heather to talk about the twenty-year journey behind her breakout debut novel, This Story Might Save Your Life. From growing up on a dairy farm next to a maximum-security prison to working in the film industry, getting fired from Warner Bros. after accidentally insulting her boss over company chat, and writing multiple novels that never sold, Tiffany opens up about the long road to becoming a published author and eventual New York Times bestseller. The conversation dives into the persistence required to survive the publishing industry, how motherhood reshaped Tiffany's priorities, and why she finally gave herself permission to write the book she actually wanted to read: a genre-bending thriller and love story inspired in part by true crime podcasts like My Favorite Murder. She also shares the emotional story of her son writing a college essay about watching her chase her dreams for nearly two decades and how that became one of the proudest moments of her life. Plus, Tiffany breaks down her unusual writing process of drafting entire scenes through voice memos while walking her dogs, the collaborative process behind creating the audiobook with narrators Julia Whelan and Sean Patrick Hopkins, and the surreal moment she found out she'd become a New York Times bestseller after assuming it would never happen.

Send us Fan MailThe fastest way to turn a cyber incident into a business disaster isn't ransomware, it's confusion. We sit down with Violet Sullivan, AVP and Cyber Solutions Team Lead at Crum & Forster, who has worked across cyber law, breach notification, digital forensics and incident response, and now cyber insurance. That vantage point lets her translate what each group needs when pressure is high and everyone is speaking a different language.We get practical about the moments that create real-world chaos: overlapping roles like “breach coach,” acronyms that make leaders freeze, and the dangerous assumption that someone else already handled comms or law enforcement outreach. Violet breaks down a cleaner way to run the response by focusing on function: legal help, technical help, and operational help. We also talk about why crisis communications deserves a seat at the table early, how PR teams organize messaging by audience, and how to avoid the cleanup phase that happens when people speak too soon.Then we zoom out to the contract that quietly shapes the whole response: cyber insurance. Violet explains why insurance is not “admitting defeat,” but a risk transfer mechanism that can fund response vendors and influence decisions when you cannot afford mistakes. We also tackle emerging AI risks, including more believable social engineering and the legal concern that sharing privileged legal advice with AI tools may put attorney-client privilege at risk.If you want clearer incident response planning, better tabletop exercises, and fewer “who has the ball?” moments, hit play.

Have you ever watched a client fall off track and chalked it up to a lack of motivation? What if that's not actually what's going on?Clients who can't seem to stick to the plan might have nothing to do with motivation and everything to do with this: lack of discomfort tolerance.

Until now.In this episode, Dr. Kasey Jo Orvidas breaks down the real reason clients struggle to stick to the plan and shares practical strategies coaches can start using right away. She covers:Why clients don't struggle because they don't know what to do (they struggle because they can't tolerate the discomfort that comes with doing it)The research behind self-efficacy, stress mindset, and psychological flexibility and why it all matters for behavior change5 coaching strategies to build discomfort tolerance, including urge surfing, stress reappraisal, and reflective debriefingThe coaching mistakes that accidentally keep clients stuckIf you want to help clients push through the hard stuff and actually see results that last, this episode is for you. Connect with me on Instagram! Grab 5 Free Lessons in Mindset and Behavior Change Coaching [HMCC WAITLIST]LEAVE A REVIEW, WIN A WORKSHOP!

"The board should govern, and the executive director should lead the day-to-day operations. When those lines blur, that's when things get messy." This episode is sponsored-in-part by Maddie's Fund, The Animal Rights Foundation, The Trapper's Tips & Tricks Workshop, and The Community Cat Clinic. Strong missions save lives but strong governance sustains them. In this essential episode of the Community Cats Podcast, Stacy LeBaron welcomes back Tim Crum, CEO and founder of Animal Shelter Services, for a deep dive into nonprofit board governance. If you've ever wondered what a board of directors should be doing (versus what they often end up doing), this conversation is for you. Tim breaks down the core purpose of a nonprofit board: governance, not operations. From fiduciary responsibility to strategic planning, he outlines the three legal duties every board member must understand—duty of loyalty, duty of care, and duty of obedience (think "LOCO" to remember them). He also shares real-world examples of common governance missteps, including conflicts of interest, related board members, executive directors serving as voting board members, and the risks of poorly documented board minutes. For growing animal welfare organizations—especially those transitioning from all-volunteer to staffed operations—this episode offers practical guidance on when to hire an executive director, how to structure bylaws and policies, and why board composition matters. Tim also addresses board giving requirements, succession planning, and how to recruit skilled board members by first getting your "house in order." Whether you're a founder wearing too many hats, a seasoned board member, or stepping into governance for the first time, this episode provides clear, actionable insights to help your organization grow responsibly, ethically, and sustainably. Good governance isn't just paperwork…it's the foundation for saving more lives.

Michael and Buck broke down how well search and automated regulatory workflows are already helping small, lean production teams move faster. Instead of digging through PDFs, Buck can pull a full well history in seconds, and he sees the next big win as using AI for diagnostics, spotting trends, suggesting likely issues, and helping pumpers focus on what actually matters. They also talked about the huge amount of tribal knowledge stuck in people's heads and how tools like transcripts and voice-to-text can finally capture it so newer hands aren't starting from scratch.Click here to watch a video of this episode.Join the conversation shaping the future of energy.Collide is the community where oil & gas professionals connect, share insights, and solve real-world problems together.

This week, Scott sits down with his longtime friend and colleague, Dr. Alia Crum—one of the world’s leading researchers on the science of mindsets. Dr. Crum’s groundbreaking work investigates how our subjective beliefs and interpretations can produce real, measurable changes in behavior, physiology, and psychological well-being. Drawing inspiration from research on the placebo effect, Dr. Crum explores how mindsets influence everything from health and stress to performance and interpersonal effectiveness. She and Scott discuss the mechanisms through which mindsets shape objective reality, and how deliberately shifting our mental lenses can lead to meaningful transformation in our lives and organizations. This conversation is especially personal for Scott, who first met Dr. Crum during their graduate school days at Yale. They revisit early philosophical chats while highlighting how far her research—and its real-world implications—has come.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this Huberman Lab Essentials episode, my guest is Dr. Alia Crum, PhD, professor of psychology at Stanford University and the director of the Stanford Mind & Body Lab. Dr. Crum explains that our mindsets—for example, what we believe about stress, exercise and the food we eat—shape how we feel, behave and even how our bodies respond. We discuss studies showing simply believing a food is indulgent can shift satiety hormones and that viewing your daily activity as real exercise can improve weight loss and health markers. We also discuss how to reframe stress so it becomes a tool for growth and improved performance. Read the episode show notes at hubermanlab.com.

Hannah Ruhamah Crum is the Founder of Kombucha Kamp, the leading education platform and Ecommerce brand for homebrewed kombucha. She's also the co-author of The Big Book of Kombucha and the cofounder and former president of Kombucha Brewers International, where she's helped shape industry standards for fermentation and transparency.Before launching Kombucha Kamp, Hannah was a language teacher and aspiring actress who stumbled into kombucha at a raw food restaurant in San Francisco. A single sip turned into a full-blown obsession, leading her to teach local brewing classes out of her apartment, blog about the gut microbiome, and ship SCOBYs from her kitchen table before launching a full Ecommerce operation.Hannah shares how she followed inbound demand signals to grow from DIY educator to industry leader, why homemade kombucha is different from store-bought, and how she scaled without outside capital. She also unpacks how COVID reshaped her business overnight, why she walked away from a quarter-million-dollar facility, and what she's learned about managing people without formal training.Whether she's explaining what it means to be a “bacteria farmer” or how her belief in gut health intersects with spiritual wellness, Hannah offers a candid look at what it takes to build a mission-driven CPG brand from scratch.In This Conversation We Discuss:[00:40] Intro[01:15] Selling starter kits not just products[02:34] Discovering a product by total accident[04:56] Blogging to fix misinformation online[06:16] Podcasting early to build brand authority[09:05] Reclaiming gut health through real food[10:44] Episode Sponsors: Electric Eye, Heatmap, Zamp[14:42] Protecting tradition through policy advocacy[18:51] Rebuilding ops with a lighter footprint[21:30] Outsourcing production for better margins[23:02] Building loyalty with rewards that convertResources:Subscribe to Honest Ecommerce on YoutubeProviding free information and education about Kombucha kombuchakamp.comFollow Hannah Ruhamah Crum linkedin.com/in/hannahcrumlaSchedule an intro call with one of our experts electriceye.io/connectClear, real-time data built for ecommerce optimization heatmap.com/honestFully managed sales tax solution for Ecommerce brands zamp.com/honestIf you're enjoying the show, we'd love it if you left Honest Ecommerce a review on Apple Podcasts.

How would you encourage sustainable behaviour?  You might assume logical messages work best.  Stuff like “the average three-hour flight creates ~250–400 kg of CO₂”.  But today's guest on Nudge has tested logical messages.  And they don't work.  Today on Nudge, Toby Park from the Behavioural Insights Team explains how renaming a meat-free dish doubled its sales. Why targeting home-movers made Americans 400% more likely to cycle. How social norms can increase sales by 20%. And the reframing led the majority of Brits to choose energy-efficient fridges.  ---  Watch the bonus episode: https://nudge.kit.com/27720ca0ad Connect with Toby on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/toby-park-67773279/  Read Toby's Net Zero Report: https://shorturl.at/Wy8RP How to Build a Net Zero Society: https://shorturl.at/0PcRk Sign up for my newsletter: https://www.nudgepodcast.com/mailing-list  Connect on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/phill-agnew-22213187/  Watch Nudge on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@nudgepodcast/  --- Sources:  Das, G., Spence, M.
