This podcast episode delves into the intricate interplay between comic culture, mental health, and the representation of Black identities in the media. Halston Canty, a distinguished mental health advocate, joins us to share his insights on how comics can serve as a therapeutic outlet and a means of understanding personal struggles within the African American community. We also explore the recent partnership between Crunchyroll and Delta Airlines, which promises to enhance in-flight entertainment with anime content, thus broadening accessibility to diverse narratives. Furthermore, we discuss the casting of Tramell Tillman in the upcoming Spider-Man film, as well as the return of beloved comedic actors Regina Hall and Anna Faris to the "Scary Movie" franchise. This episode emphasizes the significance of fostering open dialogues about mental health, particularly in underrepresented communities, while also celebrating the multifaceted nature of comic storytelling and its impact on personal identity.Halston “Slimzell” Canty @lifewithhalston joins Blerd's Eyeview to tackle mental health in the African American community and how we can break the stigma. The crew also dives into what mental health looks like in nerd culture and content creation and even explores which iconic comic book characters might struggle with mental health today. From Batman's trauma, Joker's instability, and Spider-Man's anxiety, to Storm's resilience under pressure and Cyborg's battles with identity, we unpack how these stories connect to real life challenges.Twitch: / blerdseyeview1 Youtube: / @blerdseyeview

A guest panel discusses aircraft accidents, air turbulence injuries, airline and airframer culture, pilot training and experience, FAA shortfalls, and other topics that impact the flying public. In the news, the 90-second evacuation rule, the fatal Jeju Air crash at Muan Airport, and Zunum Air's suit against Boeing for the misappropriation of trade secrets. Guests Chris Manno became an Air Force pilot after graduation from college and served seven years as a squadron pilot in the Pacific. He flew as a pilot with American Airlines for 35 years and was a captain for 29 of those years. Over his career, Chris logged over 25,000 hours of jet time. He's a cartoonist and author of many books. Chris has just written a new book based on actual airline incidents titled Whiskey Air. It's a fictionalized deep-dive into actual airline incidents. James Albright co-wrote Whiskey Air. He's a fellow USAF pilot (they flew together in a squadron in PACAF) who went on to command a USAF squadron, then retired and spent another twenty years as a corporate pilot. He also writes safety analysis for AvWeek. Erin Applebaum is a Partner in the aviation practice at Kreindler & Kreindler LLP. She represents the interests of passengers severely injured or killed in general aviation and commercial airline accidents. Erin is currently on the team representing numerous victims of the DCA midair collision. She's also handling cases on behalf of several passengers from the February 2025 Delta Air Lines crash in Toronto. Erin is a foremost authority on litigating claims governed by the Montreal Convention, the international treaty on commercial air travel. Erin's other major cases at Kreindler include the Southwest Airlines Flight 1380 catastrophic engine failure and the Liberty Helicopters doors-off tour helicopter crash in the East River. For the past six years, Erin has played a key role in Kreindler's fight against Boeing in the Ethiopian Airlines Flight 302/737 MAX litigation. She was appointed by the court as a member of the Plaintiffs' Executive Committee for the Ethiopian Airlines Flight 302 cases and was instrumental in the victims' families' effort to overturn the Deferred Prosecution Agreement between Boeing and the Department of Justice. Discussion In this episode's roundtable, our guests bring their knowledge and experience to the discussion of important issues faced by the industry, including: The 90-second evacuation rule. The liability of the airlines, airports, and the regulators. Boeing's corporate culture, reputation, and the DOJ's criminal case. Profit motives over safety. Decision making in the cockpit and being the captain that sometimes has to say, “no.” Lack of FAA oversight resources and the Aviation Safety Action Program (ASAP). Delegated oversight authority. Injuries sustained due to air turbulence. See: Whiskey Air on Amazon Chris Manno's author page Code 7700 page by James Albright Rough Skies Ahead: Legal Options for Turbulence Injuries [PDF] by Erin Applebaum and Taylor Sandella. Aviation News Senator Pushes FAA to Examine Aircraft Evacuation Rules Senator Tammy Duckworth (D-Ill.) sent a letter to the FAA asking the agency to compare its 90-second evacuation standard against recent incidents. The rule originated in the late 1960s and requires aircraft manufacturers to demonstrate during certification that all passengers and crew can evacuate the aircraft within 90 seconds, even with only half of the emergency exits available. Duckworth's letter: “While FAA has yet to disclose how long any of the referenced passenger evacuations took, these incidents once again raise serious questions about FAA's 90-second evacuation standard as well as FAA's assumptions about how evacuations occur in real world conditions (such as the assumption every passenger will comply with instructions to deplane without carry-on bags).”

Delta Air Lines officials say they will not use personal data in AI pricing after facing criticism from U.S. Senators. Plus we explore how federal cuts under the Trump administration could impact organizations helping refugees settled in Atlanta, aiding low income residents in need of healthcare and maintaining the Chattahoochee River National Recreation Area. And we look at Georgia's impact in the Voting Rights Act which was passed 60 years ago this week. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Delta Air Lines recently came under fire for announcing that artificial intelligence will be setting 20 percent of its ticket prices for its domestic flights by 2026. While Delta subsequently denied using the tech to engage in “personalized” price gouging, many airlines, big businesses, and data brokers have allegedly been dabbling in “surveillance pricing,” the growing corporate practice that exploits personal data to charge customers the most they're willing to pay.In this episode of Lever Time, David Sirota talks to Lee Hepner, antitrust expert at the American Economic Liberties Project, to learn how companies are tracking our online and offline behavior to deliver personalized (and potentially higher) price tags. As Hepner reveals, corporate entities have been quietly fine-tuning the practice for decades — and we're now entering an era of one person, one price.Click here to read The Lever's investigation into how airlines pioneered "personalized pricing."Get ad-free episodes, bonus content and extended interviews by becoming a member at levernews.com/join.To leave a tip for The Lever, click here.

Delta Airlines has hit turbulence after it publicly stated it wants AI to set 20% of its domestic ticket prices by the end of the year, raising concerns about so called survellience pricing. Delta has since issued a statement saying it does not intend to use AI to leverage individual consumer-specific data such as prior purchasing activity, but several senators are still concerned they're working on legislaton to stop it happening. Professional teaching fellow at the University of Auckland and an expert in the use of AI and digital technologies in marketing, Patrick Dodd spoke to Lisa Owen.
Artificial intelligence agents are significantly transforming the landscape of software-as-a-service (SaaS) pricing, moving away from traditional per-seat licenses towards usage and outcome-based models. Gartner predicts that by 2030, 40% of enterprise spending on software will shift to these new pricing structures, prompting businesses to reassess how they perceive value in digital operations. As AI features become more prevalent in enterprise software, organizations must navigate potential risks such as data silos and vendor lock-in, emphasizing the need for transparent pricing and governance strategies.The podcast discusses the growing concerns surrounding AI's impact on the workforce, with a survey revealing that 61% of white-collar workers fear job displacement within three years. Despite these fears, many workers report that AI has enhanced their creativity and productivity, suggesting that AI should be viewed as a tool for augmentation rather than replacement. This perspective can facilitate smoother adoption of AI technologies, positioning service providers as trusted change managers.In the realm of security, Microsoft faces scrutiny over a critical vulnerability in its new NLWeb protocol, which could allow unauthorized access to sensitive files. Meanwhile, Cloudflare has accused the AI startup Perplexity of violating no-crawl directives by stealthily scraping content from websites, raising concerns about unauthorized data access. Additionally, Anthropic's research highlights how AI personalities can be influenced by training data, underscoring the importance of data governance in AI development.The episode also touches on Delta Airlines' clarification regarding its AI-assisted dynamic pricing model, which aims to use aggregated data rather than individual customer information. In the fashion industry, the use of AI-generated models has sparked debate over authenticity and representation, as brands seek cost-effective solutions for content creation. Overall, the discussion emphasizes the need for service providers to balance AI's cost-saving potential with the importance of maintaining trust and authenticity in consumer-facing applications.Four things to know today 00:00 AI Agents Drive SaaS Pricing Shift, Raise Vendor Lock-In Concerns, and Reshape Worker Attitudes04:45 OpenAI Releases First Open-Weight Models in Six Years as AI Security and Ethics Face Fresh Challenges09:50 Delta Defends AI Pricing as Non-Personalized, While Fashion Faces Backlash Over AI-Generated Models12:47 Microsoft Ends Windows 11 SE, Debuts Edge AI Copilot, as SentinelOne Expands into Generative AI Security Supported by: https://scalepad.com/dave/https://getflexpoint.com/msp-radio/ Tell us about a newsletter! https://bit.ly/biztechnewsletter/ All our Sponsors: https://businessof.tech/sponsors/ Do you want the show on your podcast app or the written versions of the stories?

Solo Travel Adventures: Safe Travel for Women, Preparing for a Trip, Overcoming Fear, Travel Tips
The rapid rise of artificial intelligence is transforming how we plan, book, and experience travel—whether we're ready for it or not. After resisting the AI wave, I've finally accepted its inevitability while maintaining a healthy skepticism about certain applications.Delta Airlines' recent expansion of AI-powered pricing algorithms reveals a troubling trend. They've increased coverage from 3% to 20% of domestic routes, using your personal data to determine how much you might be willing to pay. This means two passengers on the exact same flight could see entirely different fares. Even more concerning for solo adventurers: early indicators suggest individuals booking single tickets are charged premium rates compared to those purchasing multiple seats. This profit-maximizing strategy raises serious ethical questions about fairness and transparency in travel pricing.Beyond airlines, AI has quietly integrated into nearly every travel touchpoint. Some applications genuinely enhance our journeys—Google Translate breaking down language barriers, Hopper predicting the best booking times for savings, or facial recognition speeding up airport security. Yet these conveniences come with tradeoffs: potential job displacement for human travel agents, privacy concerns as our data is harvested, and algorithmic biases that steer travelers toward overcrowded destinations while overlooking authentic local experiences.For those wanting to leverage AI's capabilities while avoiding its pitfalls, try this approach: when using ChatGPT or similar tools, craft specific prompts like "You're a local who hates tourist traps. Give me five spots in [city] for someone who avoids crowds and cares more about feel than famous." This helps circumvent the tendency of AI to recommend only well-known attractions. Most importantly, remember that the heart of meaningful travel lies in human connection. Hire local guides, shop at neighborhood markets, and engage directly with communities. While AI can help organize your journey, it can never replicate the transformative power of authentic human experiences that make travel truly worthwhile.Support the showhttps://www.cherylbeckesch.com Instagram @solotraveladventures50Facebook community: Solo Travel for Women Over 50 https://www.facebook.com/groups/860865768609200
The next time you purchase an airline ticket online, there’s a chance the price was influenced by artificial intelligence.

U.S. appeals court judges questioned on Thursday whether President Donald Trump's tariffs were justified by the president's emergency powers. The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit in Washington, D.C., is considering the legality of "reciprocal" tariffs that Trump imposed on a broad range of U.S. trading partners in April, as well as tariffs imposed in February against China, Canada and Mexico.Trump said on Thursday he had agreed with Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum to extend an existing trade deal with Mexico for 90 days and continue talks over that period with the goal of signing a new deal. "Mexico will continue to pay a 25% Fentanyl Tariff, 25% Tariff on Cars, and 50% Tariff on Steel, Aluminum, and Copper. Additionally, Mexico has agreed to immediately terminate its Non Tariff Trade Barriers, of which there were many," Trump said in a Truth Social post.Delta Air Lines said an Airbus A330-900 from Salt Lake City to Amsterdam was hit by serious turbulence on Wednesday, forcing the flight to divert to Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport. The airline said 25 passengers were taken to hospitals for evaluation and treatment. One passenger said people who weren't wearing seat belts were thrown about the cabin.
US President Donald Trump says Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney's plan to recognize a Palestinian state, could make it difficult to do a trade deal. South Korea beats Donald Trump's tariff deadline but the deal is unpopular. Hundreds of people in BC's Okanagan region are on evacuation alert due to a wildfire. Environment Canada warns prairie wildfire smoke could affect air quality from Saskatchewan to Ontario and parts of Quebec. Ukraine's parliament restores independence to two anti-corruption agencies, after demonstrations in Kyiv.

Brown University Makes Deal to Restore Federal Funding ; U.S. Announces Multiple Trade Deals | NTD Good Morning (July 31)Brown University will regain hundreds of millions in federal funding under a new deal with the Trump administration. The school agreed to end DEI-based hiring, adopt anti-Semitism safeguards, and pay $50 million to Rhode Island workforce groups. The settlement ends federal investigations—though with Brown admitting no wrongdoing. Meanwhile, Duke University's research grants have been frozen over alleged race-based discrimination.The Trump administration has announced multiple new trade deals. Trump said South Korea will pay a 15 percent tariff and invest $350 billion in the United States. Deals with Cambodia, Thailand, and Pakistan have also been reached. Meanwhile, the president imposed a 50 percent tariff on Brazil and on some copper imports.Twenty-five people were taken to the hospital on Thursday after severe turbulence on a Delta Air Lines flight traveling from Salt Lake City to Amsterdam. The plane was diverted to Minneapolis where it landed safely, and medical personnel evaluated everyone on board. The Airbus jet was carrying 275 passengers and 13 crew.
Guest None today; just me reflecting on recent events. Summary In this episode, I recount my recent fly fishing trip to Alaska, reflecting on how various organizations shaped my experience. Delta Airlines impressed him with personalized service and proactive rebooking. In contrast, an overpriced and unwelcoming airport hotel in Detroit left a negative impression. The Bear Trail Lodge in Alaska, however, stood out for its commitment to guest experience, environmental consciousness, and celebration of local culture, reinforcing the idea that a brand is defined by a series of customer touch points, not just its primary service. Key Points: A successful vacation, and by extension, a positive organizational experience, depends on mindset, handling unexpected issues, and interactions with external organizations. Organizations like Delta Airlines and the Bear Trail Lodge demonstrate an understanding that their overall brand and reputation are built upon numerous customer touch points, not just their core service. Personalized service, attention to detail (like a handwritten note or addressing customers by name), and embodying a brand's values contribute significantly to customer loyalty and satisfaction.
