The Buddha taught a path of awakened living, but how does that manifest in today's world of constant connectivity and widespread suffering? How do we keep our hearts open without being defined or hardened by the pain that surrounds us, whether personal, collective, or historical? How do we navigate the paradox of holding both pain and joy, without mistaking suffering for punishment or personal failure? Can we infuse our compassion with wisdom and perspective to find the agency to take meaningful action in our communities? In her new series, Engaged Compassion, Sharon delves into these questions and more, engaging in candid conversations with a diverse group of teachers, activists, and changemakers. For the seventh episode in the series, Sharon's speaks with teacher Geshe Lobsang Tenzin Negi, marking his first appearance on the Metta Hour.Geshe Lobsang Tenzin Negi, PhD, is the cofounder and director of the Emory-Tibet Partnership, a multi-dimensional initiative founded in 1998 to bring together the foremost contributions of the Western scholastic tradition and the Tibetan Buddhist sciences of mind and healing. He is also professor of practice in Emory University's Department of Religion. In 2018, he launched, with the Dalai Lama, SEE Learning, a free compassion curriculum for children. Geshe Lobsang, a former monk, was born in Kinnaur, a small Himalayan kingdom adjoining Tibet. He began his monastic training at the Institute of Buddhist Dialectics and continued his education at Drepung Loseling Monastery in south India, where he received his Geshe Lharampa degree in 1994, the highest academic degree granted in the Tibetan Buddhist tradition.In this conversation, Geshe and Sharon speak about:• How Geshe grew up in the Himalayas • Becoming a monk at age 14 in 1974• Geshe and Sharon's first meeting • Center for Contemplative Science and Compassion-Based Ethics• Cognitively Based Compassion Training • What neuroscience says about compassion• Tania Singer's research work• Richie Davidson's discovery with neuroplasticity• The inner qualities that are actually skills• Putting compassion into real action• How discernment must guide compassion• Story of the starfish on the beach• How small acts of kindness affect others• Developing the inner disposition for kindness• Is compassion fatigue actually compassion?• The natural reciprocity of compassion • “Compassionomics” by Stephen Trzeciak• Why self-compassion is a struggle• Accepting the human condition• Drepung Loseling Monastery• H.H.

Eliot reviews the week's jackassery and offers his thoughts on Juneteenth and the upcoming 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence. He then welcomes Ambassador Deborah Lipstadt, distinguished professor at Emory University and prolific author. She explains her background as a historian of the Holocaust, her work documenting Holocaust denial, and her experience being sued by British Holocaust denier David Irving. They discuss her work as Special Envoy for Monitoring and Combating Antisemitism from 2022 to 2025, which included efforts to bring Saudi Arabia into the Abraham Accords and creating the Global Guidelines for Countering Antisemitism. They explore the political and ideological forces behind the current global rise in antisemitism before pivoting to the threat it poses to democracy and the state actors exploiting it to sow division in the United States.David Irving v.

Summary Artificial Intelligence is transforming marketing faster than almost any technology before it. Brands can now create professional-quality advertisements in hours rather than months and at a fraction of the cost. But as AI-generated creative becomes more common, an important question is emerging: Are brands becoming more efficient while losing some of the humanity that customers value? In this episode, Ben Shaw and Professor Ryan Hamilton explore the growing use of AI in advertising and marketing. They discuss why customers may care less about how cheaply content is produced and more about whether it feels authentic, trustworthy, and emotionally engaging. They also examine why AI may unintentionally create a flood of mediocre content, why consumers often value effort and craftsmanship, and how marketers can use AI without sacrificing what makes their brands distinctive. The discussion reveals that while AI is a powerful tool, it is not a substitute for customer understanding, emotional insight, or great strategy. Best Quote from the Episode: "The companies that win won't be the ones using the most AI. They'll be the ones using AI without losing their humanity."  Ben Shaw Key Takeaways: Customers don't buy efficiency—they buy value, trust, and emotional connection. AI-generated advertising may lower production costs, but it can also reduce perceived authenticity. Consumers often use effort and craftsmanship as signals of quality and credibility. As AI-generated content becomes widespread, "realness" may become an increasingly valuable differentiator. Unlimited AI revisions can lead to creative dilution and "death by a thousand prompts." AI won't fix poor marketing strategy; it simply allows marketers to produce more content faster. Great marketing still comes from human insight, emotion, creativity, and understanding customer needs. The most successful brands will use AI as a tool, not as a replacement for strategic thinking. Why You Should Listen: If you're a marketer, business leader, customer experience professional, or simply curious about how AI is changing the relationship between brands and customers, this episode offers a balanced and practical perspective. You'll learn where AI genuinely creates value, where it creates risks, and why authenticity may become one of the most important competitive advantages in the years ahead.

In this summer-ready episode of "Transmission Interrupted," host Jill Morgan sits down with Dr. Andi Shane, Division Chief for Pediatric Infectious Disease at Emory and Medical Director of the Special Care Unit at Children's Healthcare of Atlanta, to tackle the itchy, the icky, and the often misunderstood risks of summer: bugs, bites, and bathrooms. As families gear up for vacations, outdoor adventures, and the return to school, Jill and Dr. Shane break down the real dangers posed by bug bites and creepy-crawlies, offering practical guidance to parents for preventing itching, infections, and accidental exposures. They discuss best practices for using insect repellents on children, why covering up is sometimes easier said than done, and the importance of checking kids (and pets) for ticks—along with what tick-borne illnesses to watch out for as changing climates shift the landscape of risks across the country. The episode doesn't shy away from common but uncomfortable realities like head lice, exploring why these unwelcome visitors are more gross than genuinely dangerous, and shares expert strategies for dealing with them calmly. Dr. Shane also covers hand hygiene, safe management of public restrooms, and the influx of “cooties” when kids return to school, offering memorable and sometimes hilarious tips for keeping families healthy through the literal and figurative messes of summer. Wrapping up, Jill and Dr. Shane emphasize the ongoing importance of vaccination, regular pediatric care, and practical steps every parent can take to minimize risks and avoid unexpected hospital visits. Whether you're heading to camp, beach, or just the local playground, this episode is your guide to surviving and thriving through bugs, bites, and bathrooms. Questions or comments for NETEC?

In this special episode of The Coherence Code Podcast, Dr. Lorne Brown shares a recording from the Healthy Seminars webinar series Anatomy of the Ego with Eli Recht. Together, they explore how the ego creates suffering through fear, false beliefs, emotional resistance, and unconscious defense mechanisms.Eli explains why suffering is not caused by external events but by our internal relationship to those events, and how awareness, acceptance, and conscious feeling can dissolve the cycle of suffering. Blending psychology, spirituality, mindfulness, and practical self-inquiry, this conversation offers a roadmap for moving from inner conflict to peace and coherence.Key Takeaways:The ego is not who you are—it is a mode of perception based on separation and duality. Suffering is created internally through resistance, not by external circumstances. Emotions are meant to move through us; when suppressed, they become trapped and fuel suffering. Awareness is the antidote to false beliefs, emotional resistance, and ego identification. Peace emerges when we stop fighting reality and learn to consciously experience what is present.Where to find Eli Recht:Website: https://elirecht.com/Optional donations for this webinar series can be made in one of three ways according to your preference:-Through Eli: Venmo (@Eli-Recht, last four digits: 4492), Zelle (info@elirecht.com), and PayPal (paypal.me/EliRechtTeaching)-Directly to Rancho Coastal Humane Society: https://rchumanesociety.org/donate/-To a local animal shelter dear to your heartYou can find past Lectures with Eli Recht on the Healthy Seminars Youtube Chanel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ecveRQffXg4&list=PL-x76JGN5gKO23aGzqEdVJXntaxVt9gqvEli Recht's Bio:Eli Recht is a counselor, educator, and speaker who bridges psychology and spiritual awakening.

In this episode of the Oncology Brothers podcast, we discussed challenging cases focused on metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with common EGFR mutations. Joined by experts Dr. Shirish Gadgeel from the Emory University and Dr. Wade Iams from Tennessee Oncology, the discussion revolved around two real-life patient cases. The first case featured a 54-year-old gentleman with active tobacco use and diffusely metastatic NSCLC, including an isolated brain lesion. The panel explored treatment options, including single-agent osimertinib versus dual combinations of amivantamab-lazertinib and osimertinib-chemotherapy, emphasizing the importance of shared decision-making and considering co-mutations and patient demographics. In the second case, the conversation shifted to supportive care and managing side effects, particularly focusing on skin toxicity associated with amivantamab. The experts shared their proactive approaches to patient education and the significance of monitoring and adjusting treatment plans to enhance patient quality of life.   Key Points: In EGFR-mutated NSCLC with CNS metastases, treatment selection between single-agent osimertinib and combination amivantamab-lazertinib vs. osimertinib-chemotherapy requires individualized consideration of age, co-mutations, extent of disease, and patient preference rather than mutation status alone. Younger patients with CNS disease may benefit from more aggressive upfront combination therapy, while shared decision-making remains central to navigating the expanded efficacy versus increased toxicity trade-off. Dermatologic toxicities associated with amivantamab requires proactive management including supportive care regimen, early dose adjustments and close patient monitoring to maintain treatment continuity. Providing the best available upfront therapy in metastatic EGFR-mutated NSCLC is critical, as sequencing options become more limited at progression. Join us for an insightful discussion on the latest treatment algorithms, the importance of personalized care, and the evolving landscape of NSCLC management.   Listen us on: Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/31BXhY9FM4gPWG10WgE11o Apple Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/oncology-brothers-practice-changing-cancer-discussions/id1653340966   Follow us on social media: ⁠X/Twitter: https://twitter.com/oncbrothers ⁠Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/oncbrothers Website: https://oncbrothers.com/   Don't forget to subscribe for more episodes featuring conference highlights and challenging cases in oncology! #EGFRMutated, #LungCancer, #ThoracicOncology, #PersonalizedMedicine, #OncologyBrothers

In this first episode of our Forza Athletics Performance With Purpose Podcast, I had the great pleasure to speak with Emory University Throwing Coach Jordan Crayon. Jordan is a multiple time Division II National Champion in the weigh throw and hammer throw. We first spoke to Jordan over six years ago. A lot has changed since then, specifically Jordan's time as both a professional hammer thrower and assistant track and field coach at Emory University. Most recently, Jordan threw a new personal best in the hammer throw of over 75m, his first personal best season since before COVID. In this episode, Jordan and I discussed:1. Training as a professional hammer thrower2. The 2016 and 2021 Olympic Trials3. Competing at USATF Outdoor National Championships4. Balancing coaching and throwing

DC EKG with Joe GroganThe Economics of Ozempic and Other Weight Loss DrugsEpisode 136.5 (“Prescription Refill” – A replay from the archives)Original Air Date: May 2024In this episode, Joe Grogan welcomes Ben Ippolito, Senior Fellow in Economic Policy Studies at the American Enterprise Institute, to discuss the rapidly evolving economics of GLP-1 weight loss drugs like Ozempic and Wegovy.Ben explains the two main competitors in this market—Novo Nordisk's Ozempic and Wegovy versus Eli Lilly's Mounjaro and Zepbound. Revealing how insurance coverage decisions drive pharmaceutical marketing strategy.The conversation reveals a critical irrationality in Medicare policy: the statutory prohibition on covering weight loss drugs despite their profound clinical and quality-of-life benefits. Yet these same drugs are covered for diabetes and cardiovascular risk reduction.Ben explores the surprising economics of drug pricing through gross-to-net pricing—the massive gap between list prices and what insurers actually pay through rebates and discounts.The episode examines critical implications of the Inflation Reduction Act's price negotiation provisions. Once Medicare negotiates Ozempic's price, that same price applies to all products using the same active ingredient. This creates cascading market effects: competitors must match those prices to remain on formularies, new entrants face lower pricing power even if clinically superior, and pharmaceutical companies may abandon promising programs due to regulatory uncertainty.Ben argues Congress doesn't need to act immediately to expand Medicare coverage, but likely will within a few years.Joe and Ben discuss unintended consequences of government price regulation, including effects on innovation and drug development pipelines. They explore how price controls announced before elections affect pharmaceutical strategy and development timelines.Concluding with Ben's research on Medicare Advantage and why both Democrats and Republicans scrutinize this private alternative to traditional Medicare. With over 50 percent of seniors enrolled in Medicare Advantage plans, bipartisan interest in reform is reshaping healthcare policy conversations on Capitol Hill.Key TopicsGLP-1 drugs, Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, Zepbound, weight loss medications, obesity treatment, Medicare coverage, drug pricing, Inflation Reduction Act, pharmaceutical competition, rebates, gross-to-net pricing, health economics, cardiovascular benefits, diabetes treatment, Medicare Advantage, healthcare policy, innovation incentivesKey Timestamps00:00 Cold Open: "Turned Up to 11"00:24 Welcome to DC EKG00:46 Meet Ben Ippolito (AEI)03:48 The GLP-1 Landscape: Ozempic, Wegovy, and the Field05:04 One Drug, Two Names06:45 Medicare's Weight-Loss Coverage Ban07:21 Blockbusters and Big Effect Sizes09:32 Why Isn't Congress Acting?10:17 Why It Costs Less Than You Think12:34 The Coverage Irrationality14:05 Quality of Life as a Real Benefit15:17 Beyond Weight: Cravings and Addiction18:21 Devil's Advocate: Why Cover It At All?19:48 Gross-to-Net and the Rebate Problem22:41 Why Can't You Just Pay Cash?25:43 The IRA and the Ozempic Price Cut27:32 One Ingredient, One Price30:10 Unintended Consequences in Part D34:01 New Competitors and Killed Programs38:03 What's Next: Medicare Advantage42:04 Wrap-Up and CreditsAbout the Guest(As of May 2024) Ben Ippolito is a Senior Fellow in Economic Policy Studies at the American Enterprise Institute.

Nostalgia isn't just "remembering the good old days." It's a bittersweet emotion—the strange mix of warmth, loss, pride, and longing that can make you feel good… even when the memory you're describing sounds objectively terrible. In this episode, Colin and Ryan dig into why nostalgia is so powerful (and why it's everywhere right now). They explore the paradox: people don't just get nostalgic about the happy stuff—they also get nostalgic about the hard stuff, because it becomes part of identity ("I survived," "it made me," "we were close," "look how far we've come"). And for Customer Experience? Nostalgia isn't retro wallpaper. It's an emotional lever tied to belonging, meaning, and identity—exactly the things that shape customer decisions. What you'll hear in this episode Why nostalgia is pleasant and painful at the same time Why people compete over who had it worse How nostalgia acts like an emotional "anchor" during uncertainty How brands "clone" nostalgia in advertising—and why it works when it's authentic Quote of the episode "Nostalgia isn't about reliving the pain—it's about reliving the meaning." — Colin Shaw Resources Mentioned Colin Shaw - https://www.linkedin.com/in/colinrjshaw/ Professor Ryan Hamilton - http://linkedin.com/in/ryan-hamilton-49b3321  About the Hosts: Colin Shaw is a LinkedIn 'Top Voice' with a massive 286,000 followers and 87,000 subscribers to his 'Why Customers Buy' newsletter.

“Behind every breakthrough are countless failures no one ever sees—but that's exactly what makes progress possible.” Dr. Thomas Kaiser. When I have scientists on the podcast: they're some of the coolest, smartest, funniest people, and they're always willing (and excited) to explain what they do in ways you can actually understand. Dr. Tom Kaiser is no exception. He lives and works in Durham, North Carolina, and brings together an impressive mix of scientist, physician, and entrepreneur. His work focuses on designing better medicines using cutting-edge technology. He began his career at Emory University in Dennis Liotta's lab, working on antiviral drug discovery, and later helped pioneer early machine learning approaches in drug design. His research spans RSV, cancer, and neurodegenerative diseases, and he went on to earn his medical degree from the University of Oxford. Tom is now the co-founder and Chief Scientific Officer of Avicenna Biosciences, where he's leading the development of innovative therapies aimed at improving and saving lives. And my favorite detail from his bio? He ends it by mentioning the love of his life, his wife. I'll be honest, when I first met him, I told Dr. Kaiser he seemed like someone who must have been in a movie. He's just that cool. His Company: Dr. Thomas Kaiser shares the story behind his company's name, Ibn Sina, also known as Avicenna a true Renaissance figure of the Islamic Golden Age. A physician, philosopher, and scientist, Ibn Sina embodied the kind of multidisciplinary thinking that still drives innovation today. It's a powerful reminder that the roots of modern medicine, and the spirit of discovery stretch back centuries. The Part We Don't Talk About Enough Science is not a straight line. Not even close. Experiments fail. Clinical trials don't work. Hypotheses fall apart after years of effort. Funding can disappear. Progress can stall in ways that are frustrating and sometimes heartbreaking especially when patients are waiting. Dr. Kaiser speaks about this with a clarity and calm that really stayed with me. Because the truth is: scientists have to keep going anyway. They carry the weight of those disappointments and start again. They adjust, rethink, rebuild, and try again. Over and over. And that persistence? That's where breakthroughs come from. From the outside, it's easy to celebrate the wins ... the new drug, the successful trial, the headlines. But behind every one of those moments are countless failures no one ever sees. For families like ours, waiting, hoping, advocating it matters to understand that this difficult process is also what makes progress possible. Living the Dream What if you actually got to live the dream you had as a kid? In this conversation, Dr. Thomas Kaiser shares something surprisingly personal: he feels lucky to be doing exactly what he dreamed of as a child. That early curiosity grew into a career designing new medicines and pushing the boundaries of science. From imagination to impact, his journey is a reminder that sometimes those childhood passions really can shape the future.

“We must perpetrate the paradox that our American cultural tradition lies in the future.” — Randolph Bourne, via Dominic Erdozain Should Americans be proud of their country? The Anglo-American historian Dominic Erdozain thinks not. His new book, To Love a Country, argues that there's a problem with American patriotism. Americans shouldn't love their country, Erdozain says. It's not a good place. His argument is that American patriotism has the same Puritan root as British imperialism. The idea of a chosen people, a city on the hill, a nation with a special mission is a kind of moral virus. He says it infected America in the great awakenings of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries and has provided moral cover for slavery, military aggression abroad, and the denial of rights at home. So what America needs, he argues, is a new set of foundational myths laid out by progressives like Jane Addams, Frederick Douglass, William Lloyd Garrison and Martin Luther King Jr. This would establish a new kind of American patriotism which is forward-looking and internationalist rather than nativist or exceptionalist. Erdozain even gives Gandhi a shoutout as a model of American patriotism, although one wonders what the Indian pacifist would have made of this. So what will the Atlanta-based Erdozain be doing on July 4? Hiding under his bed, perhaps, rather than enjoying the hotdogs and fireworks. In hiding from hundreds of millions of patriotic Americans. Five Takeaways •       The Puritan Root of American Exceptionalism: The idea of America as a chosen people, a city on a hill with a special mission to the world, was not invented in America. It was inherited from English Puritanism. As it spread through the first and second great awakenings of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries — what some scholars call the New Englandization of America — it became the canopy under which very different kinds of people sheltered. You didn't have to be a Puritan in any theological sense. You just had to accept the premise that America was righteously exceptional. And once you accepted that, a great deal of scrutiny became unavailable. •       Nationalism Is Immune to Failure: One of Erdozain's sharpest observations, via historian Lindsey O'Rourke's work on American interventionism: nationalism can absorb any amount of failure. The defeat in Vietnam, the disaster of Iraq, the failure of Afghanistan — a certain kind of nationalism insulates itself from the lessons these events might teach. It's always someone else's fault. It's always a particular administration's failure, never the national premise. This makes exceptionalism uniquely resistant to the ordinary mechanism of democratic accountability. •       Randolph Bourne and the Patriotism of the Future: Erdozain's most original historical recovery: Randolph Bourne, a radical journalist writing during the First World War, who argued that nativism and nationalism were European imports, backward-looking and derivative. Bourne's phrase: “we must perpetrate the paradox that our American cultural tradition lies in the future.” A patriotism faithful to the diversity of modern America — its bustling pluralism, its immigrant energy — cannot be built by looking backward to the founders. It must be built by looking forward to the founders we have not yet had. •       Alternative Founders: Addams, Douglass, Garrison, King: Erdozain proposes replacing — or at least supplementing — the canonical founders with a different cast. Jane Addams, who said the question is not what can we teach the bewildered immigrant but what can we learn from them. Frederick Douglass, who held America to account for its foundational promises. William Lloyd Garrison, the abolitionist. Martin Luther King Jr., who went to India to learn about nonviolence from Gandhi. These are the people, Erdozain argues, who offer a patriotism adequate to the diversity and complexity of twenty-first century America. •       JFK's Strategy of Peace: The Possibility of Reinvention: Erdozain ends the book with Kennedy's strategy of peace speech at American University in June 1963 — two months before his assassination. By then, Kennedy had come to believe that the impetus for war was coming from within his own country, from his own military and CIA, not from the Soviets. His speech — conceding nothing to communism as an ideology, but immensely generous about the Russian people and about Khrushchev as a leader — is Erdozain's model for what reinvention looks like. The Bay of Pigs taught him something. By the end, he was talking about Vietnam as not America's fight. Lessons can be learned, even in office, even at the last moment. About the Guest Dominic Erdozain is a historian and writer, graduate of Oxford and Cambridge, and visiting professor of history at Emory University in Atlanta. He is the author of To Love a Country: The Problem of Patriotism in America (Crown, June 2, 2026) and One Nation Under Guns. He grew up in Preston, Lancashire, supports Liverpool FC, and lives in Atlanta, Georgia. References: •       To Love a Country: The Problem of Patriotism in America by Dominic Erdozain (Crown, June 2, 2026). •       Randolph Bourne — radical journalist and critic of American nationalism during the First World War. His phrase “our American cultural tradition lies in the future” is the book's central provocation. •       Jane Addams — co-founder of Hull House, Nobel Peace Prize laureate. Referenced as an alternative founder. •       JFK's Strategy of Peace speech, American University, June 10, 1963 — the closing argument of the book. •       Episode 2922: Alexandra Natapoff on America Unfinished — directly referenced at the opening. •       Episode 2923: Joe Cunningham on Life of the Party — directly referenced at the opening. About Keen On America Nobody asks more awkward questions than the Anglo-American writer and filmmaker Andrew Keen.

On today’s “Closer Look with Rose Scott,” we have an in-depth discussion with the Atlanta Legal Aid Society about a study by Princeton University’s Eviction Lab. It shows Fulton, Cobb, DeKalb, Gwinnett, and Clayton Counties lead the nation in evictions. Those evictions overwhelmingly affected Black households -- more than white, Hispanic, and other racial groups combined. We also speak to Dr. Jodie Guest, Professor and Senior Vice Chair in the Department of Epidemiology at Emory University. The Ebola Virus is spreading quickly through central Africa and has already taken hundreds of lives. We learn more about the nature of the deadly illness and what’s being done to stop it from infecting more people.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this week's episode, we speak with Dr. Rachel Bowser of Agnes Scott College about redefining AI fluency as a core component of a liberal arts education. Rather than focusing on technical skills alone, they explore how teaching students to critically evaluate AI—understanding its biases, limitations, and role in learning—can strengthen their ability to think, question, and make meaning. The conversation also highlights how embedding AI literacy alongside experiential learning—like global travel and workplace immersion—creates more equitable, high-impact opportunities for students. Ultimately, it's a call for institutions to shift from gatekeeping knowledge to expanding access, ensuring all students are equipped to navigate an AI-driven world with confidence and curiosity.

In this episode, we go through the results of Women's Nationals and celebrate Emory University claiming their second consecutive National Championship and third in the last five years, cementing their status as the premier program in DIII Women's Golf. Carnegie Mellon couldn't quite catch Emory. It was their second straight runner-up finish, an impressive display of consistency. The Tartans have now finished in the top five in all seven of their NCAA championship appearances, including a national title in 2024. On the individual side, Carter Sichol from Carleton College was the story of the tournament. Sichol shot -5 (283) across four rounds — including a closing two-under 70 on Friday — to win the individual title by one stroke. Entering the final round in second place, she birdied four holes on the back nine to surge to the top. The drama came on the final hole: Carnegie Mellon's Emma Wong needed a birdie from six feet to force a tie, but the putt didn't fall, sealing Sichol's historic win.We hope you enjoy the podcast!!D3 Golf Guys' AffiliatesSupport the show

Everyone's racing to be "AI-first." The problem? Customers didn't vote for it. In this episode, we unpack a practical decision framework for when AI should lead, when humans must lead, and how to avoid automating the very moments that drive loyalty (or churn). We also get into a surprising twist: why AI can sometimes sound more empathetic than people—and what that says about how most service teams are set up today. What you'll learn in this episode Why "AI-first" is usually a cost initiative pretending to be a strategy A simple way to decide human vs AI based on the emotional and situational stakes Where automation genuinely improves CX (and where it quietly wrecks trust) Why AI can come across as more patient and empathetic—and why that's a warning sign Best Quote from the Episode: "AI-first' is not a strategy.

Welcome back to this special live edition of Truth, Lies & Work, the award-winning workplace podcast where behavioural science meets workplace culture. This week, Al, Leanne and Associate Producer Georgia, are joined by three exceptional experts to explore a straightforward but powerful question: what does the military do differently when it comes to leadership, and what can businesses actually learn from it? Most organisations say leadership matters, but many are just guessing. We promote based on length of service, confuse being "in charge" with being a leader, and create cultures where capable people are too afraid to speak up. The military, however, has spent decades perfecting the art of building instant trust and providing the clarity needed for independent action.

In this episode, host Sylvie Legere sits down with Shira Kupperman Boehler and Dr. Kim Sandler to discuss the vital topic of early lung cancer detection. Having been diagnosed after a precautionary scan, non-smoker Shira shares her harrowing journey and advocates for change in diagnostic guidelines. Broadcasting from Wrigley Field emphasizes the importance of transforming how lung cancer is diagnosed, and how it is perceived by the medical community and public. Their conversation dives into the shortcomings of current screening guidelines and the urgent need for change to save more lives, especially for those who don't fall within the traditional risk categories. Through personal narratives and professional expertise, Dr. Sandler and Shira Kupperman Boehler share a holistic approach to detect lung cancer early by employing cutting-edge technologies and personalized medicine.  Act after listening: 1. Find out if you qualify for a free scan. If you're between 50–80 with a significant smoking history, you may be eligible for an annual low-dose CT scan — covered by Medicare and most private insurance. (Link in Resources below) 2. Ask your doctor even if you don't qualify. The current guidelines don't cover never-smokers — but that doesn't mean your risk is zero. At your next appointment, ask: "What is my personal lung cancer risk, and should I be screened?" Don't wait for symptoms. 3. Add your voice to change the guidelines. The screening criteria need to be expanded. Visit the Cancer Doesn't Care Foundation to learn how to advocate for policy change — and to share your own story if you have one. 4.

Andrew Nelson is Chief of Staff to the CEO at Waste Eliminator, where he helps drive strategic initiatives, operational execution, and growth across the company's expanding footprint in the Southeast. Before entering the private sector, Andrew spent six years in the U.S. Army with 3rd Ranger Battalion, completing five deployments across Syria, Iraq, and Afghanistan. He transitioned from the military in 2022 and later earned his MBA from Emory University. Topics:Why Portcos Need a Chief of Staff Military Speed as a PE AdvantageThe Military-to-Civilian ShiftTranslating Military Skills Into Business...and so much more.Top TakeawaysA Chief of Staff can become a force multiplier for a PE-backed CEO. Andrew described the role as part project manager, part operator, and part accountability driver. In lean portfolio companies where leadership teams are stretched thin, a Chief of Staff can help move strategic initiatives forward across operations, finance, systems, and growth projects simultaneously.Clear ownership prevents projects from stalling. Andrew shared a military execution principle he still uses in business today: every task needs a clear owner, a standard, and a “time hack” — the agreed-upon deadline for completion. Many fast-growing companies struggle because ownership and timelines are vague. As projects pile up inside PE-backed businesses, unclear accountability often becomes the bottleneck that slows execution.Military operators fit portfolio companies better than Fortune 500s. Andrew made the point that large corporations can feel slow and highly segmented, while lower middle market businesses offer more ownership, faster decision-making, and clearer impact. For many veterans, that environment feels much closer to the pace and accountability they were used to in the military.The right network changes the trajectory of a transition. Andrew's path to Waste Eliminator didn't come through LinkedIn or a recruiter. It came through a direct introduction from a 51 Vets member who had already made a similar move. One of Andrew's biggest takeaways was how valuable it is to have people a few years ahead of you who understand both the military background and the PE/portfolio company world. 51 Vets is that network, with 500+ members from the special operations and aviation communities and mentors across IB, PE, consulting, and operating roles.About Waste EliminatorWaste Eliminator is a waste and recycling platform focused on sustainable waste solutions and landfill diversion.

In this episode of the Straight White American Jesus Sunday Interview, host Leah Payne speaks with Jonathan Calvillo, sociologist of religion at Candler School of Theology at Emory University and author of The Saints of Santa Ana, about growing tensions within Latino evangelical and Pentecostal communities over immigration, political representation, and the public platforming of prominent evangelical leader Samuel Rodriguez. The conversation centers on the recent “We Are Not a Monolith” statement issued by Latino pastors, scholars, and ministry leaders calling for greater nuance and accountability in how Latino Christians are represented in national media. Calvillo explains why many faith leaders believe Rodriguez has come to function less as an advocate for vulnerable immigrant communities and more as a defender of Trump-era immigration policies and conservative political networks. Together, Payne and Calvillo explore how ICE raids and immigration enforcement are reshaping Latino churches across the United States, including the emergence of new theological language around persecution, sanctuary, solidarity, and resistance. They discuss the complex political diversity within Latino evangelicalism, the influence of white evangelical megachurch networks on Latino Pentecostal leaders, and the growing tensions between immigrant-majority congregations and prominent conservative evangelical institutions. The episode also examines how Latino evangelical and Pentecostal churches are responding to fear, surveillance, and political polarization in this moment, including new collaborations between immigrant churches, ecumenical groups, and unexpected community allies. Throughout the conversation, Calvillo situates current debates within a longer history of migration, marginalization, religious activism, and public theology in the United States.
