What do you do when the assessment sheet says "Did Not Attain"? In this episode of First Chair, host George Thomas talks with PSIA-AASI National Team member Lyndsey Stevens about her journey through the assessment process. Lyndsey opens up about failing her trainer assessment three times before finally succeeding on her fourth attempt. She explains how those setbacks weren't just hurdles, but essential learning moments that shaped her into the high-level educator she is today. Lyndsey dives into the difference between "passively declining" and "actively seeking" feedback, and why moving from the question of "Why did I fail?" to "What do I do to succeed?" is a total game changer. We discuss the importance of "Follow-up Culture," how to be a better receiver of feedback, and why examiners often enjoy being mentors more than they enjoy being proctors. Whether you are preparing for your Level I or eyeing a spot on the National Team, this conversation offers a roadmap for turning a "check-box" failure into a long-term professional victory. In this episode, we discuss: The emotional weight of seeing "Did Not Attain" on an assessment sheet. Reframing the past: Moving your focus from "Why" to "What." How to bridge the gap between being "at the standard" and proving it during an exam. The "Follow-up Culture": Prompting trainers with specific goals to get better data. Why being a good receiver of feedback is a skill that must be practiced. Read Lyndsey's full article in the Winter 2026 issue of 32 Degrees magazine.

In this final episode of the Ger Graus Gets Gritty series, Professor Dr Ger Graus OBE and I wrap up our 10-episode journey through education from early years to higher education and beyond. We explore the difference between schooling and education, the role of universities in an AI-driven world, and whether lifelong learning could — or should — move beyond traditional institutions.Learning doesn't stop at 18, 45, or even 99. The future of education isn't about replacing what we have, but expanding the menu — so that every curious learner, at every stage of life, can find their own path. And no matter how education evolves, the people around us remain at the very heart of it.'Everyone can only aspire to what they know exists'Takeaways:The importance of continuous education beyond traditional schooling cannot be overstated, as it is essential for personal development throughout one's life.Our discussions highlighted the critical distinction between education and schooling, emphasizing that true education can occur at any age and in various contexts.The relationship between higher education institutions and students must be fundamentally redefined to prioritize student needs and outcomes over financial motivations.Lifelong learning is not limited to formal education; it encompasses all forms of personal growth, driven by individual curiosity and life experiences.The necessity for a nuanced understanding of educational pathways is paramount, as different individuals require different approaches to learning and development.In our exploration of higher education, we must recognize the evolving needs of society and the role of institutions in adapting to these changes.Chapters:00:04 - Introduction to Episode 1002:15 - Overview of Further Education and Lifelong Learning24:02 - The Complexity of Accountability in Education36:18 - The Role of Degrees in Professional Success39:37 - The Importance of Lifelong Learninghttps://www.gergraus.comGet the book – Through a Different Lens: Lessons from a Life in Education

In this episode, we tackle one of the biggest questions surrounding higher education today: are some college degrees actually worth less than others? We dive into the reality of student debt, job market demand, salary expectations, and the growing debate over whether college is still the best path to success. From passion-driven majors to high-paying careers, we explore what truly makes a degree valuable in today's economy. Wait, what's a Financial Griot? The Financial Griot is a play on two words (Finance + Griot) that together signify closing the wealth gap while embracing our differences. Alainta Alcin, Lovely Merdelus, and Lawrence Delva-Gonzalez share their perspectives on current events that impact your personal finances and wealth mindset. In the New York Times, Bankrate, and other publications, the hosts share the stories that others don't. Stories about growth, opportunity, and even Wars. Beyond that, we tie it back to how it reflects on your finances. Specifically, we teach you how to become financially literate, incorporate actionable steps, and ultimately build generational wealth. Can you imagine being a Millionaire in 20 years or less? Yeah, it's possible. Eighty percent of millionaires are first-generation, meaning they didn't inherit wealth. We teach you how.

I love people. Especially the loveable ones. I think I love people well until I come across a difficult person. Maybe you also keep a private list of those who-best-not-be-named, and pray you never see again. Even worse: you work alongside of them. Or much, much worse: you're related to them. The funny thing is none of our secrets are secret to God. The other funny thing is He's got a plan for how we deal with our difficult people. What can we do? Pretend they don't bother us? Change locations? Speak the truth in love and the truth is: we don't like them and we would love it if they left us alone? It's not convenient to move to Australia to join Alexander on his no-good-very-bad day caused by a no-good, not-so-pleasant, irritating person. But it doesn't stop us wishing we could be on the next plane. Today we talk about WHAT MAKES A DIFFICULT PERSON DIFFICULT? DEGREES OF DIFFICULTY—DO THEY MATTER? SIMPLE PRACTICES TO HELP US WITH OUR DIFFICULT PEOPLE Keeping my mouth shut is usually a good idea.  Some thoughts: You've heard the expression, “Hurt people hurt people.” I forget that fact when I'm the object of that hurt. When difficult people lash out, I want to listen with my heart, not just my ears, and think: I wonder what's going on to make her act that way? Was there something in his past that's causing this behavior? Cultivating a grown-up relationship with your most beloved may include painstaking prayers for wisdom and love, timing and tone. Degrees of difficulty do matter. On the one hand, we need to exercise patience and kind words. On the other end of the spectrum, extreme behavior warrants firm and healthy boundaries. Ask for the help you need. Some conversations don't need to take place, especially when we begin with prayer. Forbearance is putting up with more than you are due (or that you THINK you are due!) The thing is we want everyone to forbear with us, but forget to forbear with everyone else. _____ Check out my new book HERE:

Nate Bargatze joined us today to talk about his new movie The Breadwinner & revealed new details about his Theme Park development Nateland in Nashville. He talked about roller-coaster shopping, his first red carpet premiere, and what the GOAT appetizer is at a chain restaurant. Count how many times he says 'uh' and you could win a prize! We kicked off our Funner Summer Challenge today, forcing each other to have an epic summer by doing things like throw a keg party, see 10+ shows, have sex on the beach, and pull an all nighter. The first wheel spin forced Ally to try a new drug, which is going to be difficult if she gets pregnant soon... We also talked to the guy who created the controversial Ozzy Osbourne AI Hologram. He swears it's classy, state-of-the-art, and not a threat to Ozzy's legacy. The call ended badly when Ally attempted to do her terrible Ozzy Osbourne impression. Petty Claims Court was VERY interactive today as a man accused his girlfriend of asking him to bring her things as soon as he sits down to relax. Listeners quickly branded Karla a "Latina T3000 Terminator" and a "Toxica Torta" and things only progressed from there.

Brian and Richard are joined by Phillip Carter of the 40 Watt Podcast for Episode 619 of the Chasing Tone Podcast - 40 Watts of Fender dilemma and do you have to be rich to start a band?Blake has caught a dose of the quattro formaggi quickstep and so we have the mighty Phillip Carter of the 40 Watt Podcast stepping into his cubic shoes for this episode. What an episode it proves to be... There can be only one starting point and that is the Fender legal issue that continues to rumble on and is proving to be a bit of a PR minefield. But first - soccer.Brian is somewhat relieved to discover the Fender legal letters don't extend to Telecasters but that doesn't mean this isn't a subject worthy of discussion. All of the great and good of the guitar YouTube world have had to make a video that "they really didn't want to make". But this is a serious issue and we have questions and suggestions. Some of those may not be sensible or serious, actually, now I come to think about it. There is a lot of wild speculation too.There has been some interesting new UFO footage that was evidently filmed on a 3-pixel camera and the guys discuss how disappointed they may or may not be. Brian admits he has got his own weird things. Is it only possible these days to make it big in the music business if you have a rich family? The guys ponder this.Huge thanks to Phillip Carter for joining us this week and huge thanks to you for listening!The Mighty Arsenal, But Is It Art?, Warlock Pedals, Saucy Pickups, Street Legal Side-by-Sides, 6 Degrees of David Gilmour... it's all in this week's Chasing Tone!We are on Patreon now too!Support the show (https://www.patreon.com/chasingtonepodcast)Courses and DIY mods:https://www.bluesguitarmethod.com

Are your poles helping you accelerate, or are they telling your skis to stop? In this episode of First Chair, host George Thomas is joined by Keith Rodney—chair of the National Children's Task Force, US Telemark Team head coach, and multi-discipline examiner. Keith explains why we've moved away from the term "pole plant" in favor of the "pole touch," and how this subtle shift in vocabulary reflects a massive shift in how we move our center of mass across our skis. Keith breaks down his "Gold Standard" of the accelerating pole touch, the "Wild Pole Swing" for emergency turns, and the "Unibody" movement patterns of young children. Whether you're an alpine pro, a telemark enthusiast, or a children's specialist, this episode will change the way you look at the "two sticks" in your hands. We also tackle the age-old question: At what age should kids actually start using poles? In this episode, we discuss: - The difference between a "blocking" plant and an "accelerating" touch. - How pole angle affects the energy travel into your upper body. - The "Unibody" movement: Why 3-to-6-year-olds struggle with grip. - "Nose over Toes": Using the pole reach to find balance on steep terrain. - Telemark vs. Alpine: How pole length and the "lead change" work together. Read Keith's full article in the Winter 2026 issue of 32 Degrees magazine.

Brother Aiden Brink returns to the podcast to share some insight that he has gained about his lodge, degree work, regalia, robes, community involvement, and a host of other topics.  Grab your notepads and get ready to take notes because this episode is chock full of great information that will be useful for every lodge, from the smallest kitchen-table lodge to the biggest traditional lodge.  Changes that can help a lodge can start with just one member who wants to memorize rituals and make degrees more meaningful.  The Shoutout goes to Victory Encampment No. 34 of the Atlantic Provinces (yes, it's *another* new Encampment).  For the Odd Podge, Ainslie shared a remarkable experience where a prospective member stopped in at his shop to meet him and talk Odd Fellowship; Meredith gave props to Oustomah Lodge No. 16 of Nevada City, California for being so active in their community and sharing it on social media; Toby gave us the update on his lodge's German Dinner (which brought in some applications!); and Aiden thanked two groups of members for aiding in his lodge's success: newer members for their assistance with outreach and older members for their hard work and support.

This week on Ooohtheyfunny, the crew dives into some real conversations about life, perception, and success, starting with the question everybody's been debating lately: is college still actually worth it? They break down rising tuition costs, student debt, trades becoming more profitable, and whether people truly choose college with a plan or just because they feel pressured at 18. From there, the conversation shifts into confidence vs competence, debating why confident people often seem to win in jobs, dating, and everyday life even when they're less skilled, and whether society naturally trusts people who sound sure of themselves. The episode also gets deeper with a discussion about happiness versus success, questioning what parents really want for their kids and whether chasing money and status is worth sacrificing peace of mind. To lighten things up, the crew closes out with a hilarious debate about which male R&B singers actually look like they can fight, calling out everybody from Chris Brown and Trey Songz to Brent Faiyaz and Usher while arguing whether quiet energy or loud confidence is scarier in a real situation.

After a few weeks off, we're finally back behind the microphones and there's plenty to catch up on.Tim can officially talk about Lakeview hiring a new associate pastor, including what the search process was like and the surprisingly difficult reality of calling candidates to tell them they finished second. Pastoral ministry apparently now includes HR, recruiting, and emotionally complicated phone calls.Andrew spent last weekend in Dallas for his second graduation from Dallas Theological Seminary and, unlike the first time, he actually showed up for this one. Growth. Maturity. Airfare.Meanwhile, Tim's ordination is only a month away, and he's beginning to question why Andrew is asking such deeply personal theological and ministry questions. Somewhere between “describe your prayer life” and “what books are you reading,” the process started feeling less like ordination prep and more like a pastoral FBI interview.Last night, both guys participated in their friend Adam Powers' D.Min graduation celebration, which somehow turned into the launch of an entirely new competition: figuring out who is actually the funniest pastor in the friend group. Results remain disputed.It's a catch-up episode full of hiring updates, seminary milestones, ordination prep, and middle-aged men trying very hard to out-joke each other.

Season 9 kicks off with a discussion about 90 credit degrees and how the University of Maine System is moving forward with three Applied Baccalaureate degrees as a way of bringing learners with some college but no degree back to the university system. Chancellor Dan Malloy and Vice Chancellor Jeff St. John join to talk about their process for developing the Applied Baccalaureates, the surprisingly little pushback from faculty, the enthusiastic response from employers, and their hopes for continued growth and engagement with these innovative credentials in the future.    Key Takeaways:The 90-credit credential is an academic innovation designed to bring “some college no degree” learners back to school. The reduced credit threshold for awarding the degree may support easier access into the workforce in less time with less money spent by the learner.The University of Maine System will launch three “Applied Baccalaureates” in fall 2026, having worked with their accreditors, their trustees, and faculty at each of the system member institutions to identify and develop these programs. Accrediting bodies may provide guidance for institutions about what must be included as part of a 90-credit credential, and may have requirements for how to name the degree and how to differentiate them from the full baccalaureate degree. Host:Doug McKenna, Ph.D.University Registrar, George Mason Universitycmckenn@gmu.edu   Guests:Daniel Malloy, J.D.Chancellor, University of Maine Systemhttps://www.maine.edu/chancellors-office/dannel-p-malloy-chancellor/ Jeffrey St. John, Ph.D.Vice Chancellor, University of Maine SystemReferences and Additional Information:Core Competencies: Leadership and Management

In this episode of First Chair, host George Thomas sits down with international ski instructor Joaquin Alvarez Amuchastegui to discuss his recent 32 Degrees article, "Enhancing Our Connections with Empathy." Joaquin has taught all over the globe—from the steep faces of Switzerland to the firm slopes of the East Coast—and he's discovered that technical knowledge is only 10% of the battle. Joaquin breaks down the "90% Rule," explaining why your tone of voice and body language are the primary tools for building trust, especially when conditions get "sketchy." We dive into the concept of "Dimming the Spotlight" to let student learning take center stage, the importance of a "Silent Feedback Loop," and how teaching in multiple languages (Spanish, English, and Portuguese) can actually make you a clearer, more empathetic communicator. Whether you are prepping for your Level III or teaching your first beginner lesson of the season, this conversation will help you match your student's frequency and create a more effective learning environment.

They memorized every booklet. They followed every rule. They submitted to every authority figure above them in the chain. And when the adults who went through the Duggar family's IBLP curriculum finally stepped outside the system, they discovered that the education they spent their entire childhood receiving was worth almost nothing.This week's Hidden Killers review brings together the most critical conversations from our series on the IBLP — what the curriculum actually taught, how it infiltrated institutions beyond the families who used it, and what happened to the people it was supposed to prepare for life.The Wisdom Booklets didn't just teach fringe theology — they rewrote entire subjects through an obedience lens. The law and government modules framed the French Revolution as divine punishment for disobedience. Democracy without God-ordained authority was presented as dangerous utopianism. Illness was tied to spiritual failure. The entire framework was designed to produce compliance, not comprehension. And the man who built it — Bill Gothard — sat at the top of an authority structure that demanded accountability from everyone beneath him while providing none of his own.The Character First program exported that ideology into public schools, repackaging obedience doctrine as character education. Schools adopted it without understanding what they were bringing in. The authority umbrella that held the IBLP together wasn't incidental to the curriculum — it was the curriculum. Everything taught inside it reinforced the idea that questioning the structure was equivalent to questioning God.The adults who emerged tell the rest of the story. Math that stopped at fractions. Degrees that didn't transfer. Bodies they didn't understand until their twenties. ATI shut down in 2021. The people it spent decades shaping were left to rebuild from scratch — with no support, no remediation, and no acknowledgment from the institution that failed them.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Abstract: Based on Doctrine and Covenants 131:1, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints teaches that there are three degrees within the celestial kingdom. There has been a proposal that this teaching is incorrect and instead this scripture should be interpreted as a reference to the three kingdoms described in Doctrine and Covenants 76 (celestial, terrestrial, and telestial). This proposition is based on two claims. First, the word celestial, in Joseph Smith's day, meant heavenly or belonging to heaven, so Doctrine and Covenants 131:1 should be interpreted to mean “in heaven there are three degrees.” The second claim is that interpreting Doctrine and Covenants 131:1 as referring to three degrees in the celestial kingdom is a twentieth-century innovation based on one sermon by one Apostle, with almost no other apostolic support before or after that sermon. This article shows that the first claim is very likely incorrect and the second is demonstrably false. The article then briefly addresses the question of degrees in the terrestrial and telestial kingdoms. The post Multiple Degrees within the Celestial, Terrestrial, and Telestial Kingdoms first appeared on The Interpreter Foundation.

The AI fallacy is thinking the transformation is only in the tool. AI is already transforming education and work; not just because of what it can do, but because of what people believe it can do. Students, workers, managers, universities, and companies are all changing their behavior around AI, sometimes rationally, sometimes badly, and often before they even fully understand it. The AI paradox is that it is both a technology and a social event. It is a technology because it is something we install, manage, govern, and use. But it is also a social event because it functions as a moment in history, one that is already altering how people learn, work, teach, hire, manage, and make decisions. Treating AI only as technology leads to the fallacy: the mistaken belief that because a challenge is technical, the solution must also be purely technical. My guest is Professor Gerald C. "Jerry" Kane. Prof. Kane is the C. Herman and Mary Virginia Terry Chair in Business Administration and Professor of Management Information Systems at the University of Georgia's Terry College of Business, he has also served as a Visiting Scholar at Harvard Business School, a Guest Editor at MIT Sloan Management Review, and a Senior Editor at MIS Quarterly. Jerry's research explores the role of digital technologies in business strategy, organizational culture, and talent development, with a particular focus on how people and organizations respond to digital disruption. He is also the author of two books on that topic: The Technology Fallacy and The Transformation Myth: Leading Your Organization Through Uncertain Times. I had Jerry on the podcast before. This time, I wanted to talk to him because he sits in both worlds: he studies how companies adapt to digital transformation, and he is also a professor watching AI hit higher education in real time, not as a theory, but in his classroom, with his students, right now. Treating AI as a software update rather than a cultural shift results in 'bolted-on' systems that people neither trust nor understand.

Legacy, Nobel Snubs, and the Fringes of Science Following the confirmation of the Big Bang theory, the cosmic microwave background was measured at approximately 2.73 degrees Kelvin, a discovery that George Gamow spent his final years advocating for as a validation of his 1940s work. Gamow, whose health declined due to heavy smoking and alcohol use before his death in 1968, frequently reminded the scientific community that his earlier calculations with Ralph Alpher had correctly predicted this radiation, using the metaphor that a lost and found penny is still the same penny. While the Big Bang gained universal acceptance, Fred Hoyle faced a professional crisis when the Nobel Prize for stellar nucleosynthesis was awarded solely to William Fowler, excluding Hoyle and his other collaborators, Margaretand Jeffrey Burbidge. This snub, which some speculate was due to a misunderstanding by nominator Hans Bethe or Hoyle's increasingly controversial reputation, led Hoyle to sever ties with Fowler and retreat to the Lake District. In his later years, Hoyle moved toward the fringes of science, championing the theory of "panspermia"—the idea that life and diseases such as AIDS and Legionnaire's disease originated in space and arrived on Earth via comets. He also drew the ire of the scientific establishment by arguing that Darwinian evolution was impossible due to the Earth's age, a stance that ironically gained him support from creationist groups despite his own atheism. Paul Halpern characterizes both Gamowand Hoyle as "seat of the pants" thinkers who relied on flashes of intuition rather than slow, methodical archival work, though Hoyle was notably more stubborn in defending his unconventional ideas. Ultimately, both men are remembered as brilliant storytellers who made the complex physics of the 20th century accessible to the public while fundamentally shaping our understanding of the universe.

How philosophy at the universities evolved in response to Cartesianism and the “new science.”

God invited an entire nation to become a "kingdom of priests" and a "holy nation." But while Moses was on the mountaintop receiving the blueprints for heaven, Israel was in the valley building an idol out of the very gold God gave them for the Tabernacle. Are we doing the same thing today? Summary: In this massive study of Exodus 19–34, we witness the highs and lows of the Covenant. We explore the sacred invitation of Sinai, the specific boundaries of the Ten Commandments, and the tragic irony of the Golden Calf. The Invitation to Sinai: We analyze the "Degrees of Glory" on Mount Sinai and how the Tabernacle was designed to bring the mountain to the people. The Ten Commandments: We reframe the Decalogue not as a list of "thou shalt nots" that restrict us, but as "protective bars" that keep us out of life's snares. The Tabernacle Pattern: We dive into the symbolism of the ark, the veil, and the altars, seeing how every piece of furniture is designed to point us back to the presence of God. The Golden Calf Tragedy: We discuss the "Prophetic Absence" and why Israel fell so quickly. We learn the danger of "plundering the riches of Egypt" only to use our blessings to build our own idols. A God of Second Chances: We conclude with the "second set" of tablets. Though the first set was broken, God provided a way for Israel to try again, proving that His mercy is more enduring than our mistakes. Call-to-Action: Are you using the "gold" God has given you (your talents, time, and resources) to build a Tabernacle for Him, or a Golden Calf for yourself?
