This episode of Codd's World features three guests. Dan Lamont, Director of the Moab Celtic Festival: Scots on the Rocks, Dave Wardell, from Kilberry Bagpipes, and Maggie McGuire, Editor/ Publisher of the Moab Sun. This show took place during the Fall Radiothon for KZMU. Dan Lamont was the first guest. He discussed the history of the Scots on the Rocks/ Moab Celtic Festival and what was lined up for the 2025 event. The festival is scheduled for October 17-19, 2025 at the City Ballfields on Center Street in Moab. Lamont noted that there would be a Tattoo of Bagpipe Bands attending the festival, athletic events, Clan tents, food and various clothing and souvenir booths. The Tattoo is an event where each bagpipe band marches on the field and plays a few songs for the gathered audience. Lamont said this is the 9th year for the festival. He also noted that the festival has grown in recent years, and they hoped to continue the event in Moab for years to come. In an interview recorded in July 2025, Dave Wardell from Kilberry Bagpipe makers from Edinburgh, Scotland, discussed the history of the bagpipes and how they are made. Dave was a master bagpipe player with national awards for his playing, who was now making bagpipes for one of the premier bagpipe makers in the United Kingdom. Dave discussed the materials used in the construction of the instrument and how they have changed over the centuries. Most bagpipes today are made with rubber air bladders that produce the air that goes through the drones that create the unique sound of the pipes. Bagpipes can be traced back to the early 15th century in Scotland. It is believed that a type of bagpipe has been around for a few thousand years. Mr. Wardell said it takes about two full days to complete a bagpipe. They cost around 1,000 pounds ($1,250 US) for a basic instrument and run well into thousands of dollars for fancier instruments with extensive decorations and more expensive materials. He also noted that the demand for bagpipes has grown significantly around the world over the past several decades. Interestingly, there is increased demand for bagpipes made with leather air bladders! Since “Codd's World!” was during Radiothon, Maggie McGuire, Owner and Publisher of the Moab Sun News, joined the show to talk about the importance of local public radio and local newspapers.

Episode Title: Data That Delivers: Governance & Authentic AI ContentHost: Donna Peterson, Owner & President of World InnovatorsGuest: David Clemen, Editor & Publisher of Global Market NewsEpisode Summary-In this episode, host Donna Peterson sits down with David Clemen, Editor and Publisher of Global Market News, to unpack what truly drives database performance in 2025 and why the era of “bigger is better” lists is over.Together they explore how data governance, clear naming conventions, and regular list cleaning lead to more engagement, better ROI, and fewer headaches. From removing “dead wood” contacts to documenting how lead sources are named, David explains the real-world steps that keep data reliable, even as titles and roles change faster than ever.The conversation also dives deep into AI's role in modern publishing and marketing: how it can amplify productivity but never replace human insight. Donna and David discuss the fine line between efficiency and authenticity, warning that unverified, AI-generated content can damage brand credibility.Finally, they reflect on leadership, honesty, and trust- both within teams and with readers. From setting clear standards to saying “no” to misfit advertisers, this episode is packed with practical lessons on maintaining integrity in an era of automation and noise.Key Takeaways You Can Implement Right Away-Establish data governance early. Create clear naming conventions and rules for list maintenance, updates, and deletions.Purge or “hibernate” dead contacts. An oversized list with low engagement hurts deliverability and performance.Refresh your data regularly. Titles and roles evolve rapidly- outdated data equals missed opportunities.Focus on engagement, not vanity metrics. A smaller, active audience delivers higher open rates and ROI.Partner with credible publishers. Industry publishers like Global Market News maintain vetted, engaged, and compliant databases.Use AI responsibly. Treat AI as a junior assistant- great for ideas and speed, but always review for accuracy and tone.Lead with integrity. Transparency and honesty with your team and audience build long-term trust and brand strength.Episode Chapters-00:00 Why clean, governed data outperforms big lists05:00 The 23 spellings of one lead source- how naming chaos kills insights10:30 Cutting “dead wood” and setting re-engagement rules15:00 Why frequent updates are critical in a fast-changing job market19:30 The AI advantage: faster workflows without losing your voice25:30 Maintaining credibility: saying no to misfit advertisers28:30 Leadership & trust: no white lies, clear feedback, real teamworkBio- David Clemen is the Editor and Publisher of Global Market News, where he leads editorial strategy, audience growth, and media partnerships for one of the fastest-scaling investor news platforms in the U.S. A 20-year digital media veteran, he has built and monetized audiences in finance, technology, and B2B media, growing subscriber bases into the millions and generating eight-figure revenue through content, sponsorships, and lead-gen programs.
