Tune in as Glenn Hunzinger, PwC's Health Industries Leader, connects with Matt Rich, PwC's Pharma and Life Sciences R&D Leader, to unpack the recent disruption at the FDA and what it means for the pharmaceutical and biotech sectors. They discuss how companies can stay agile in the face of regulatory uncertainty, avoid preventable delays, and take practical steps to move programs forward with clarity.Discussion highlights:Ongoing restructuring at the FDA is creating uncertainty and delays in drug and device approvals, with wide-ranging impacts across the pharma, biotech and medtech landscape.While companies can't control the regulatory environment, they can focus on improving internal speed, efficiency, and submission quality to keep programs moving forwardAvoiding preventable missteps, or “foot faults,” in data, endpoints, and submission packages is critical to reducing review delays and regulatory pushbackDiversifying risk by pursuing parallel regulatory pathways in other regions such as Europe and Japan can help accelerate access and reduce dependency on a single agencyIn the absence of a clear playbook, companies should focus on what they can control by applying past lessons, staying disciplined, and collaborating across the industry to support more efficient FDA review processesSpeakers:Matt Rich, PwC's Pharmaceutical and Life Sciences R&D LeaderGlenn Hunzinger, Partner, Health Industries Leader, PwCLinked materials:Navigating the FDA disruption: 4 key actions for pharmaFor more information, please visit us at: https://www.pwc.com/us/en/industries/health-industries/health-research-institute/next-in-health-podcast.html.

In this special, first-ever same-day released episode of Holy Disruption, host Heather Schott is joined by Dr. Michael Brown to address the accusations of sexual abuse that have surrounded him since late 2024. Heather, along with guests Jaco Booyens and Pastor Les Cody, dive deep into the timeline of events, exposing the inaccuracies and lies propagated by social media and some podcast platforms. They discuss the toxic culture within the church and society at large, manipulated by a spirit of accusation and division. The episode also highlights the broader implications for the Body of Christ, warns against the spirit of Jezebel, and calls for repentance, truth, and unity in the church. This revealing conversation aims to clear Dr. Brown's name, restore biblical justice, and offer a sincere plea for discernment and healing among believers.

This episode of SpaceTime explores the recent surge in solar activity, including the largest solar flare of the year and the most intense geomagnetic storm in two decades.Massive Solar Flare and Its ImplicationsWe delve into the details of a powerful X 2.7 class solar flare that erupted from a newly active sunspot region, AR14087. Although the flare was not initially directed towards Earth, its rotation has now positioned it directly in our path. We discuss the mechanics of solar flares, their classification, and the potential impacts of such events on our planet, including disruptions to communication systems, satellite operations, and even power grids.The Gannon Storm: A Historic Geomagnetic EventThe episode highlights the Gannon Storm, a severe geomagnetic storm that struck Earth on May 10, 2024. Coinciding with a space weather exercise, this event caused significant disruptions, including high voltage power line failures and rerouted flights due to radiation exposure. We analyze its effects on the atmosphere, satellites, and even the ionosphere, revealing insights into how such storms can impact modern technology.Ancient Solar Storms and Their Modern ImplicationsIn a fascinating segment, we discuss a groundbreaking study that identifies the strongest solar storm ever recorded, dating back to 12350 BCE. This ancient event, significantly more intense than any modern storm, provides invaluable data for understanding solar activity and its potential risks to contemporary infrastructure.Science Robert: Long Work Hours and Brain ChangesWe also touch on a new study revealing how long working hours could alter brain structures, potentially affecting memory and emotional regulation.Join us as we unpack these cosmic phenomena and their implications for life on Earth and beyond.www.spacetimewithstuartgary.com✍️ Episode ReferencesJournal of Occupational Environmental Medicinehttps://journals.lww.com/joem/Pages/default.aspxBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/spacetime-space-astronomy--2458531/support.00:00 Solar flares are powerful blasts of energy erupting from sunspots10:30 May 2024 was the biggest geomagnetic storm in over 20 years14:29 New study reveals strongest solar event ever recorded, rewriting science on space weather18:23 A new study claims people who work long hours could have altered brain structures

There's an area southeast of Lake Merritt that's lined with abandoned buildings, boarded up storefronts, vacant lots, and decrepit warehouses. The neighborhoods here, Clinton and San Antonio, are some of Oakland's oldest. Although there are also beautiful Victorian houses, long-established churches, and several thriving immigrant communities, including a stretch of Vietnamese establishments known as Little Saigon, this area has suffered from disinvestment and high crime rates for decades – why? Answering that question requires a trip through more than a century of Oakland history – from the Gold Rush up through the Urban Renewal era and beyond. Exploring this story illuminates not only the problems of these neighborhoods, but helps explain the rise and fall of entire cities. “The leading edge of development follows the wealthiest residents,” according to Mitchell Schwarzer, the author of “Hella Town: Oakland's History of Development and Disruption.” In this episode, Schwarzer unpacks that diagnosis, and what it means for older neighborhoods left to crumble as investors chase new frontiers. This conversation was inspired by Schwarzer's work with the San Antonio Station Alliance, a campaign advocating for the construction of a BART station and transit village.

In this episode of the Remarkable Retail podcast, hosts Michael LeBlanc and Steve Dennis begin with a news segment covering recent market developments, notably the "tariff turmoil" between the US and China. They discuss how the US has partially de-escalated its stance, with tariffs dropping from a proposed 145% to 30%, creating a 90-day window for retailers to import products. However, they emphasize that smaller retailers remain disproportionately affected due to limited resources compared to giants like Home Depot.The hosts also cover recent retail earnings reports, including Walmart's strong comp store sales growth despite withdrawing Q2 guidance, and their strategic pricing approach to tariff impacts. Other earnings news included On Running's impressive 40% sales growth, while American Eagle, JC Penney, and Burberry reported significant losses. Additional news touched on refinancing challenges at Kohl's, potential bankruptcy concerns at Saks, and Dick's Sporting Goods' surprising acquisition of Foot Locker.The featured interview with Stephen Yalof, CEO and President of Tanger, explores his extensive career spanning retail real estate, including roles at New Plan Realty Trust, Gap, Ralph Lauren, and Simon before joining Tanger in 2020 – humorously noting he arrived when "every one of their 3,000 stores was closed" due to COVID.Yalof provides a fascinating historical perspective on outlet centers, explaining how they evolved from manufacturers' sales of returned items and factory seconds to a strategic retail channel. He details how the Tanger family themselves were shirt manufacturers who realized they were "selling more stuff out the back door than out the front door" before creating the first outlet center in Burlington, North Carolina.The conversation explores how vertical retailers like Gap transformed the model, creating consolidation stores for excess inventory before establishing dedicated outlet locations. This evolution progressed from pure excess inventory management to serving aspirational customers who understand brands but can't afford full price – what Yalof describes as bringing customers "into your ecosystem."In response to competition from online and fast-fashion retailers, Yalof explains Tanger's strategy shift from purely "power shopping" to full-service experiences with improved food, entertainment, and amenities. He compares this to how stadiums have evolved despite at-home viewing advances, stating, "We're the general merchandise managers of our shopping centers... it's about picking the right uses, right experiences, the right amenities."The interview concludes with insights into Tanger's digital engagement strategies, including how they leverage customer data to create targeted marketing campaigns and provide stackable discounts through retailer partnerships, guided by their vision of "using customer insight to inform the future of shopping."

We all are feeling overstimulated and ungrounded, I think, generally speaking, and it's a really hard place to navigate as an employee. It's also a really hard place to lead from.” - Dr. Shonna Waters “No matter what you're selling or producing, there is a human at the beginning of it and at the end of it, at a minimum, right? It's the concept, the leadership of it, the orchestration, no matter how much you minimize humans in the process. There's human ingenuity at the top of that chain. And then at the bottom of it, you have your customers.” - Dr. Shonna Waters “There are conscious choices that you can make to lean more into that idea that you can grow and practice. And I think for any of us, one way to really encourage ourselves around that is to think back to other things that you've done that got easier over time or you were able to improve your skills.” - Dr. Shonna Waters Read the transcript of this episode Subscribe to the ISF Podcast wherever you listen to podcasts Connect with us on LinkedIn and Twitter  From the Information Security Forum, the leading authority on cyber, information security, and risk management.

Why is there a need for a cultural and educational shift towards appreciating, building, and maintaining industrial systems? What would a rebirth of manufacturing look like in 2025? How would we go about setting up a new Industrial Enlightenment?David A. Mindell is a professor of aerospace engineering and the history of engineering and manufacturing at MIT. He is also the author of several books. The title of his latest book and the primary subject of this discussion is The New Lunar Society: An Enlightenment Guide to the Next Industrial Revolution.Greg and David discuss the 18th-century industrial enlightenment and its implications for modern industrial society. They also explore the evolving relationship between technology and labor, the persistent myths around automation, and the importance of valuing industrial contributions in today's digital economy. Mendell emphasizes the need for a cultural and educational shift towards appreciating building and maintaining industrial systems, advocating for what he describes as a new industrial enlightenment.*unSILOed Podcast is produced by University FM.*Episode Quotes:The overlooked power of process knowledge12:41: If you are working on a very advanced, cutting-edge product, like a phone, you want to know exactly where there's capacity that's left on the table to enable you to build the next form. Did you design it too conservatively here? Is there something there you could do more with? And that familiarity with process, whether it's manufacturing or maintenance or other aspects of it, is a really important source of knowledge in an industrial system that we've generally devalued in favor of the kind of product innovation. And inventing the shiny new thing. And I'm sitting on the middle of the campus here at MIT, where we spend a lot of time teaching students about what is essentially product innovation. And we have very few folks on this campus who know anything about the processes that make and maintain these systems, even though very often that knowledge is a source of really great innovation.Is disruption really the enemy in industrial systems11:16: Disruption is the enemy in an industrial system. Reliability, repeatability, efficiency, robustness—those are things that people care a lot about in these systems.The untapped potential of maintenance cycles31:59: Improving maintenance cycles is a huge source of process innovation that we have not paid enough attention to, and if you can make something that lasts longer, that's a real contribution. I'm a pilot, and people make airplanes last for 50, 60, 70 years because they're designed to be maintained and upgraded, and you replace the parts that wear out and keep them going. Why can't we do that with laptops and phones and even routers or other disposable parts of the electronic economy? And so, work is changing. Work should change. Work should always be responding to the technological changes and needs of the time.On the myth of replacement in technology and work45:55: The myth of replacement, as I talk about in the book, is really. It's not that technologies don't enable us to do things with fewer people. Again, that's really the definition of productivity and not a bad definition for technology in these settings. It's more that, for one, it's very rare that you see a technology replace a human job and do that job the same way. Much more common that they change the nature of the work. Either they move it to a different place, they change the kind of skills that are required. They maybe make the job higher level. Maybe they make the job lower level. And you want to ask those questions about who's doing the work, where are they? What's their background, what's their training? Why does it matter? Those things change a lot, but it's relatively rare.Show Links:Recommended Resources:Josiah WedgwoodIndustrial RevolutionLewis MumfordJames WattMatthew BoultonEric SchmidtLunar Society of BirminghamAdam SmithWilliam ThompsonLord KelvinDissenting AcademiesJoseph PriestleyWilliam SmallAir France Flight 447WaymoGuest Profile:Faculty Profile at MITProfessional Profile at AeroAstroLinkedIn ProfileWikipedia Profile.Unless ProfileSocial Profile on XHis Work:Amazon Author PageThe New Lunar Society: An Enlightenment Guide to the Next Industrial RevolutionOur Robots, Ourselves: Robotics and the Myths of AutonomyThe Work of the Future: Building Better Jobs in an Age of Intelligent MachinesDigital Apollo: Human and Machine in SpaceflightIron Coffin: War, Technology, and Experience aboard the USSBetween Human and Machine: Feedback, Control, and Computing before CyberneticsWar, Technology, and Experience aboard the USS MonitorResearch Gate Page

At times it might feel like someone or something else is pulling the strings and we simply have to do our best to play along.The Vedic worldview has a very different perspective, which Thom outlines in detail in this podcast episode. Looking through the lens of “locus of control,” Thom explains how we can escape the mindset of inescapability, and learn to better navigate the ups and downs that life inevitably brings.Episode Highlights[00:45] Locus of Control[04:23] Self-Sufficiency and Field Independence[07:03] The Hypnotizable Ones[10:23] Mass Suggestibility[12:50] The Anti-Hypnotic Benefits of Vedic Meditation[15:48] Spontaneous Responsibility[20:28] The Role of Disruption in Evolutionary Change[23:02] The Downside of Contentment[27:42] Phenomenal Adaptive CapacityUseful Linksinfo@thomknoles.com https://thomknoles.com/https://www.instagram.com/thethomknoleshttps://www.facebook.com/thethomknoleshttps://www.youtube.com/c/thomknoleshttps://thomknoles.com/ask-thom-anything/

In this landmark episode of The Business Development Podcast, Kelly Kennedy sits down with marketing legend Geoffrey Moore, author of the iconic Crossing the Chasm, to explore how the principles of market adoption have evolved in an AI-driven world. With over 30 years of influence on companies like Salesforce, Adobe, and Microsoft, Moore shares how his foundational frameworks still hold up—and where today's entrepreneurs must adapt to meet the expectations of a rapidly shifting market.From navigating disruptive innovation to avoiding false signals of early success, Geoffrey delivers a masterclass in understanding the pragmatist mindset, market timing, and the reality of business in 2025. Whether you're launching a new product, scaling your company, or simply trying to stay ahead of the AI curve, this conversation is packed with insights you won't find anywhere else. Get ready to think deeper, market smarter, and grow faster—this is one episode you won't want to miss.Key Takeaways: 1. Crossing the chasm is still the greatest challenge for tech companies aiming to scale—especially in B2B.2. Early adopters want vision and potential, but pragmatists want risk reduction and proof.3. False signals from visionary buyers can create dangerous overconfidence before mainstream traction exists.4. To cross the chasm, you must solve a painful, urgent problem for a very specific customer segment.5. AI is redefining the adoption lifecycle, but the fundamentals of market timing and trust still apply.6. Creating your own category and competitors is critical—mainstream buyers need options to validate their choice.7. Every disruptive product needs a “whole product” ecosystem before it becomes scalable.8. Business buyers face real risk when changing processes—unlike consumers, they don't jump without justification.9. Social media, especially LinkedIn, is becoming noisier—real value comes from thought leadership, not self-promotion.10. Writing a business book is about building long-term impact and platform—not immediate profit.

Summary In this episode, Andy talks with Dr. Joe Sutherland, co-author of the new book Analytics the Right Way: A Business Leader's Guide to Putting Data to Productive Use. Joe is a leader in AI policy and practice, serving as the founding director of the Emory Center for AI Learning and lead principal investigator for the U.S. AI Safety Institute Consortium. Andy and Joe explore what it really takes to make better decisions in a world drowning in data and exploding with AI hype. They discuss the myths of data collection, how randomized controlled trials and causal inference impact decision quality, and Joe's “two magic questions” that help project managers stay focused on outcomes. They also dive into recent AI breakthroughs like DeepSeek, and why executives may be paralyzed when it comes to implementing AI strategy. If you're looking for insights on how to use data and AI more effectively to support leadership and project decision-making, this episode is for you! Sound Bites “What are we trying to achieve? And how would we know if we achieved it?” “Sometimes we're measuring success by handing out coupons to people who already had the product in their cart.” “AI doesn't replace decision-making—it demands better decisions from us.” “Causality is important for really big decisions because you want to know with a level of certainty that if I make this choice, this outcome is going to happen.” “Too often, we make decisions based on bad causal inference and wonder why the outcomes don't match our expectations.” “The ladder of evidence helps you decide how much certainty you need before making a decision—and how much it'll cost to climb higher.” “The truth is, we're not ready for human-out-of-the-loop AI—we're barely asking the right questions yet.” “Leadership isn't about replacing people with AI. It's about using AI to make your people more productive and happier.” “We're starting to see some evidence that when you use large language models in education, test scores go up in excess of 60%.” “This may be the first time the kids feel more behind than the parents when it comes to a new technology.” Chapters 00:00 Introduction 02:00 Start of Interview 02:09 What Are Some Myths About Data? 03:49 What Is the Potential Outcomes Framework? 08:50 What Are Counterfactuals? 13:00 How Do You Personally Evaluate Causality? 18:22 What Are the Two Magic Questions for Projects? 20:45 What's Getting Traction From the Book? 24:26 What Can We Learn From DeepSeek's Disruption? 27:30 Human In or Out of the AI Loop? 30:41 How Joe Uses AI Personally and Professionally 33:33 What Is the Future of Agentic AI? 35:37 Will AI Replace Jobs? 37:18 How Can Parents Prepare Kids for the AI Future? 41:19 End of Interview 41:46 Andy Comments After the Interview 45:07 Outtakes Learn More You can learn more about Joe and his book at AnalyticsTRW.com.

Perpendicular Futures: A Footlights CollegeIn this imaginative and thought-provoking episode, futurist and historian Dr. David Staley reads his latest blog article, “Perpendicular Futures: A Footlights College.” Known for his boundary-pushing scenarios for the future of higher education, Staley offers a bold and unexpected vision: What if colleges used performance arts—like theater and show choir—as a strategic enrollment tool, much like intercollegiate athletics?Drawing inspiration from high school show choir fervor and the storied Cambridge Footlights comedy troupe, Staley explores the idea of colleges investing heavily in performance opportunities not as academic programs, but as extracurricular recruitment strategies. This “perpendicular future” veers sharply from the typical trend lines of higher education planning and invites us to rethink what attracts students to campus in the first place.Whether you're a campus leader, a strategist, or simply someone intrigued by the unconventional, this episode will stretch your imagination about what's possible—and perhaps even probable—for the future of enrollment management.Perpendicular Change: What it means and why it matters for institutional planning.Theater and Show Choir as Enrollment Strategy: A new role for extracurriculars.The Passion Economy in Education: Students paying to perform—not for professional outcomes but for personal fulfillment.Footlights Reimagined: A nod to Cambridge's legendary troupe and a blueprint for creative placemaking.NIL Deals for Performers?: Imagining a future where artists, like athletes, earn incentives for their involvement.Disruption vs. Continuity: Why the future of college enrollment may not follow the path we expect.How embracing passion-driven participation could unlock new enrollment pathways.Why seemingly “fringe” extracurriculars might hold the key to student engagement and retention.A compelling case for reimagining institutional investments—from sports fields to stages.Dr. David Staley is a historian, futurist, and professor at The Ohio State University. He is widely known for his visionary writings and talks that challenge higher education to think differently about its future. In addition to his university teaching and consulting work, Dr. Staley regularly publishes articles on university design and innovation.

While the initial reaction was disbelief, the team quickly shifted toward vision and resolve. They emphasize the importance of perspective in leadership, choosing to see this disruption as a moment of divine transition rather than defeat. Erwin reflects on the need for resilience in ministry and the strength that comes from staying rooted in purpose amid uncertainty.The episode also revisits Mosaic's long journey with the Hollywood location.
