When Trump brags about reshaping corporate media, it is a “tell” that something has gone very wrong in his lawsuits against corporate media. Popok explains how Trump couldn't get 1 vote out of 12 on the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals to let him sue CNN in defamation, for calling his false claims of election fraud the "Big Lie” or calling him “Hitler-like,” as Judges around the country are on the verge of dismissing his other cases against the Wall Street Journal, New York Times, the BBC and the Des Moines Register!Check out the Popok firm at https://thepopokfirm.com Subscribe:  @LegalAFMTN  Visit https://meidasplus.com for more!

Would you like access to our advanced agency training for FREE? https://www.agencymastery360.com/training Most agency owners say they want to sell someday… but they're building something completely unsellable. The mistake? Not only a lack of a clear vision for the future of their agency, but also a lack of understanding of what they'll need to build a sellable agency. If you're an agency owner planning to sell one day, do you understand what buyers are usually looking for? Do you know which type of buyer you're hoping to attract? Today's featured guest understands that most agencies are acquired by private equity and built the private equity partner he felt was missing in the space. He'll talk about what actually drives valuation, what kills deals, and how to build an agency that buyers want to compete for. Ben Gaddis is the former founder of T3, a digital agency he sold to private equity in 2019. After going through multiple acquisitions himself, he now runs an operator-led private equity firm focused exclusively on tech-enabled service and agency businesses. As a former owner who's been on both sides of the table, he knows exactly what buyers are thinking. In this episode, we'll discuss: What are private equity companies looking for in agencies? Recurring revenue vs. retention What would actually increase your agency's valuation? If the goal is talent, should you consider an acquisition?

What Private Equity Actually Looks For (It's Not What You Think) The reality is that most private equity companies are looking to buy a couple of agencies to slam them together and eventually sell them for more. Based on this, agency owners have an idea of what these buyers want and mostly focus on revenue or EBITDA. According to Ben, however, buyers are looking at a few core things first: Client concentration Recurring or predictable revenue Net revenue retention Founder dependency (aka key-person risk) Clear vision and differentiation Let's start with client concentration. A lot of owners panic if one client makes up 20% of revenue. Some PE firms get nervous at 10%. But Ben brings nuance here. If you've landed and retained a $2–3M client for years, that's proof you can serve at a high level. That's powerful. The issue isn't just one big client. It's when your top 3–5 clients make up 50–60% of revenue. That's where it gets risky. If you're in that position, you already feel it. One bad email. One procurement shift. One budget freeze. And your stomach drops. That's not a valuation problem. That's a freedom problem. Recurring Revenue vs. Retention (The Smarter Metric) Everyone argues about contracts. "Should I lock clients into 12 months?" "Should we go month-to-month?" Ben argues that the real metric is net revenue retention. If you're at 90–100%+ retention, buyers don't care as much about contract length. He shared a case where they bought a company with almost zero recurring revenue but 115% net revenue retention. Clients kept buying more. The business was healthy. The packaging just needed to change. This is huge for agencies stuck in custom project hell. Sometimes it's not your service. It's how you position and sell it. Are you framing projects as standalone deliverables or as phases in a longer journey? If you're stuck working in the business and scrambling for the next sale, this is where to look first. Integration > Financial Engineering There are two types of buyers: Financial engineers smashing agencies together to increase multiples Operator-led firms building real integrated offerings Ben sees a lot of "fake integration." Agencies get acquired, but nothing truly connects. No shared systems. No real cross-sell. No operational synergy. Sophisticated buyers see through that immediately. What actually increases valuation? Additive capability. Does one service naturally lead to another? Does it solve a deeper problem for the same buyer? Does it expand wallet share within the same account? If you're thinking about acquisitions, don't buy revenue. Buy strategic fit. Otherwise, you're just running two companies under one logo. Growing Through Acquisition (And When Not To) A lot of 7-figure agency owners hit a wall where they can't hire fast enough and start to feel overwhelmed. The team depends on them. Growth feels capped. So they think: "Maybe I should acquire" and figure they should start small, as it seems easier than going through a big acquisition. Buying a bigger company or doing a merger of equals is certainly complicated in terms of defining who's in charge and which brand should remain. So, it should be a very complementary offer with a clear leader for it to make sense. This would be much clearer when buying a smaller business. However, here's the thing: Small acquisitions are just as hard as big ones. The legal, the integration, the emotional complexity, it's all real. If you've never done one before, the odds of it going smoothly are low. If the goal is talent… why not build offshore first? With AI and real-time translation tools, the global talent pool is radically more accessible than it was even five years ago. A lot of agency owners avoid offshore because it failed before. But the game has changed. If your bottleneck is hiring, you might not need to buy an agency. You might need to rethink your talent strategy. How to Prepare for a Sale (Even If You're Not Selling) This is where most deals fall apart, and Ben believes it's important for owners to try to cover any gaps in knowledge. Try to learn as much as you can about the process and the buyer to better understand their expectations. And if you still have questions, then don't hesitate to ask! Some aspects that owners may not understand and that you should start learning about: Working capital expectations Accrual vs. cash accounting Quality of Earnings (QofE) reviews Data cleanliness Revenue tagging Furthermore, Ben recommends something most owners never do: Run your own QofE before going to market. Know your skeletons. Track secured revenue. At the start of each year, how much revenue is already locked in? If that number consistently grows year over year, that's powerful. Buyers will ask about revenue by capability, revenue by sales rep, revenue by region, and client concentration by top 3/5/10. If your data is messy, you lose leverage. And if you're thinking, "I'll figure that out when I'm ready to sell," you're already behind. Vision Is the Real Multiplier Right now, Ben is seeing a lack of vision + execution alignment. AI is reshaping agency models in real time. Entire categories of services didn't exist a few months ago. The agencies that win won't just be efficient. They'll have a tight, clear, communicated vision. Agencies won't scale just because of a tactic. They'll scale because the vision was clear enough that the team could make decisions without the owner. If your team can't make decisions without you, that's not a people problem. That's a vision problem. And that's also why you're still stuck in fulfillment. Do You Want to Transform Your Agency from a Liability to an Asset? Looking to dig deeper into your agency's potential?

What If the Biggest Myths About Money, Entrepreneurship, and the Future Are Completely Wrong? In this conversation, I sat down with my friend Daymond John, and we went deep on the real truths about entrepreneurship, rejection, money, and where the world is heading next. Most people know Daymond from building FUBU and as a Shark on Shark Tank, but what you're going to hear in this episode is the mindset that actually built his success. Not the highlight reel. The real lessons. The failures. The hard-earned wisdom that only comes after decades in the arena. Daymond and I talked about something that might surprise a lot of people. Not everyone should be an entrepreneur. In fact, Daymond believes some of the most successful businesses are built when visionaries surround themselves with incredible operators. Every Batman needs a Robin. Every Captain Kirk needs a Spock. Entrepreneurship is not about doing everything yourself. It is about building the right team, embracing rejection, and continuing to move forward even when the world keeps telling you no. We also got real about the myths surrounding money. Daymond shared how early in his career he believed you needed money to make money. Then later he discovered the opposite problem. When he finally had money, he thought throwing capital at problems would solve them. It did not. The truth is that money does not build businesses. People do. Work ethic does. And your reputation matters more than almost anything because it takes years to build and seconds to destroy. One of the most fascinating parts of this conversation was where the world is going next. Daymond has been studying AI, biohacking, and live selling intensely over the last few years because he believes we are entering a period of massive disruption. Entire industries are going to change. Jobs will evolve. And the people who thrive will be the ones who adapt quickly, stay curious, and position themselves on the right side of innovation. This conversation is not just about business today. It is about preparing for the future that is coming faster than most people realize. We also talked about something I believe every listener needs to hear. Your personal brand matters now more than ever. Whether you are a CEO, an entrepreneur, or just starting out in your career, people are forming opinions about you before they ever meet you. Your brand walks into the room before you do. The question is whether you are defining it or leaving it up to someone else. This episode is one of the most honest entrepreneurial conversations I have had in a long time. If you care about building something meaningful, navigating rejection, and staying ahead of the massive changes coming in business and technology, you are going to love this one. Key Takeaways Why not everyone is built to be an entrepreneur and why that is okay The myth that you need money to make money and the real drivers of success How to develop the rejection muscle required to win in business Why your reputation and personal brand are your most valuable assets The massive impact AI and technological disruption will have on careers and industries How entrepreneurs should prepare themselves for the next decade of change Listen now and get ready to rethink what it really takes to win in business and life.

300 years ago, one man's refusal to bow down sparked a revolution that saved the Sikh identity. In this hard-hitting episode of BOSTV, we dive deep into the life and Shaheedi (martyrdom) of Baba Tara Singh Ji Vaan. By 1726, after the Shaheedi of Baba Banda Singh Bahadur (1716), many Sikhs had begun to settle into "normal" life, attempting to integrate into a society that oppressed them... until Baba Tara Singh Ji stood up. We explore the incredible accounts from Bhai Rattan Singh Bhangoo's Prachin Panth Prakash, detailing how a simple dispute over grazing land turned into a legendary stand against the Mughal Empire. This wasn't just a battle; it was the birth of the Sikh Renaissance and the catalyst for the first-ever Sarbat Khalsa. Join us as we uncover the story of the 22 Singhs who chose death over dishonor and reminded the Panth that a Sikh's first loyalty is to the Guru, not to a tyrant's peace.——————————————————

“Music is a force that brings us all together, wherever you're from.”For this ENTIRE holy month of Ramadan, we wanted to hear some music by MUSLIM artists (beyond Dua Lipa, Cat Stevens, AR Rahman, and Zane Mallick) — so we're bringing back MMusic with longtime FrieMMd of the Pod + our favorite Egyptian American from Cleveland, Seif Hamid, aka the musical artist Soof. This week we're listening to HASEEB (featuring REHMA). “Play Love” s a track that covers a theme universal to all music and art — love. The combined R&B / rap sensibilities, merged with cultural - and pop-cultural - references (Superman & Lois Lane, going to mosque) has a great vibe you'll be bobbing your head to all day.

What happens when AI stops helping with work—and starts doing the work itself?This episode connects a set of developments that business leaders should not ignore. From Sequoia's thesis that AI is replacing services, not just software, to Anthropic's findings that AI adoption is still far behind AI capability, the message is clear: the bottleneck is no longer technology. It is implementation.The bigger takeaway is even more important. Google, Microsoft, and Anthropic all released capabilities this week that make autonomous, business-ready AI workflows far more practical than they were even a few months ago. For leaders, that means the window to experiment is still open—but it may not stay open for long.In this session, you'll discover:Why AI is increasingly targeting work itself rather than the software layer around itThe difference between intelligence work and judgment work, and why that matters for business leadersWhat Anthropic's Claude usage data reveals about the gap between AI capability and actual adoptionWhy friction—not technical limitations—is slowing AI transformation inside companiesHow Google's new Workspace CLI expands agent access across Gmail, Drive, Docs, Sheets, and moreWhat Microsoft Copilot Cowork could mean for enterprise automation inside Microsoft 365Why AI review systems will become essential as AI-generated output scales across functionsHow autonomous agent loops could reshape software, marketing, sales, customer service, and product developmentWhat recent layoffs at Meta and Atlassian suggest about the future of knowledge workThe legal battles emerging around AI, from copyright to legal advice to data privacyAbout Leveraging AI The Ultimate AI Course for Business People: https://multiplai.ai/ai-course/ YouTube Full Episodes: https://www.youtube.com/@Multiplai_AI/ Connect with Isar Meitis: https://www.linkedin.com/in/isarmeitis/ Join our Live Sessions, AI Hangouts and newsletter: https://services.multiplai.ai/events If you've enjoyed or benefited from some of the insights of this episode, leave us a five-star review on your favorite podcast platform, and let us know what you learned, found helpful, or liked most about this show!

What's a joint venture? It's when you work with other companies to leverage either their brand or their customer list to generate leads and sales. Rich covers three instances of joint ventures in this episode. First, becoming a content provider… second, what he calls "left field endorsements," and third "when you have something to sell no one has ever heard of." Sit back and take notes.

Storytelling strategist and pitch expert Donna Griffith joins me to unpack how leaders, founders, and professionals can take control of their narrative during moments of chaos—and why the ability to rewrite your story may be the most valuable skill in the AI era.Most conversations about disruption focus on technology. This one focuses on something more human: how people interpret change, adapt to it, and reposition themselves when the world shifts underneath them.Donna has spent over two decades helping entrepreneurs, executives, and startup founders transform raw information—data, facts, features, and technical language—into compelling narratives that move investors, customers, and teams to action.But storytelling isn't just a presentation skill.It's a survival skill.In this conversation, we explore how narrative shapes the way people respond to major disruptions—from economic crashes and industry shifts to global events like 9/11, the financial crisis, and COVID. Donna shares how each of those moments forced her to reinvent her own professional story, pivoting from corporate training to startup storytelling and ultimately becoming one of the leading pitch strategists in the startup ecosystem.We also explore what may be the next massive narrative shift: the rise of AI.As automation compresses traditional organizational hierarchies and reshapes knowledge work, many professionals will need to rethink their roles, redefine their value, and tell a new story about what they do.The people who succeed won't necessarily be the ones with the best resumes.They'll be the ones who can translate their skills into a story the market understands.This episode is about resilience, reinvention, and why narrative—not credentials—is often the real driver of opportunity.The lesson isn't blind optimism.It's learning how to rewrite your story when the plot changes.TL;DR• Narrative determines how people interpret chaos and opportunity• Economic shocks often create new industries and new professional paths• Storytelling transforms raw information into messages that move people to act• Career pivots often emerge from crisis moments• AI will compress corporate hierarchies and reshape knowledge work• Professionals who control their narrative adapt faster than those who don't• Reinvention requires aligning skills with what the market needs now• The future belongs to people who can translate expertise into compelling storiesMemorable Lines• “You can walk through life telling the story of your problems—or leave them at home and go live.”• “Storytelling turns bits, bytes, and facts into messages that drive results.”• “AI is a sous-chef. You're still the executive chef.”• “The world doesn't just change your circumstances—it changes the story you need to tell.”• “Reinvention starts when you ask what the world needs now.”GuestDonna Griffith — Corporate Storyteller, Pitch Alchemist, and Startup Narrative ExpertFor more than 20 years, Donna has helped startups, executives, and global companies transform complex information into powerful narratives that secure funding, drive sales, and influence decision-makers.She is widely recognized for her work helping startups craft investor pitch stories and has supported companies that collectively raised billions in funding.

"I'd just be a little bit careful," says Steven Wieting as he discusses the outperformance of the energy sector amid the ongoing conflict in Iran. He says supply chain issues are holding back oil from its final delivery, which could in turn cause prices to drop. Steven adds historical context to previous global energy crises and the significance of the crude oil trade to the entire international community. However, he adds there could be overlooked opportunities in the market, specifically in health care and software, once the energy situation is resolved.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – / schwabnetwork Follow us on Facebook – / schwabnetwork Follow us on LinkedIn - / schwab-network About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – / schwabnetwork Follow us on Facebook – / schwabnetwork Follow us on LinkedIn - / schwab-network About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about

Hello! Welcome to this month's edition of Answer Us Back, full of your feedback on AMTs old and new. Today: Helen's going to watch ice hockey this weekend, i.e. she'll get to see zambonis in action, per AMT415. Olly got sleb-spotted when out for breakfast (hi Simon!). Pete in Bloomington, Indiana, wants to know whether Kyle from Bloomington, Indiana, is still stealing olives from the olive bars of Bloomington, Indiana, like he was back in AMT305 in 2014. Well, Kyle, are you? ARE YOU??? Provoked by AMT402's discussion of proposals via book dedications, Emma in Canada has a real life example from her own parents of a proposal via printed text, in their case the local tabloid newspaper. David from Glasgow heard us talking about the radio pip pip pips in AMT406 and explains how they use them in his work on cargo ships. Amy has a tip for Olly, to end his despair from AMT402 about all the little plastic bottles containing his cholesterol-reducing Benecol. We get a bit verklempt as Ricardito reminisces about what AMT meant to his late partner Stephen - including an excellent prank in AMT303. And along the way we learn about Olly's greatest technological fear and pragmatic marriage proposal, and Helen's parents' pugnacious proposal.  If you've been amassing thoughts about AMTs 1-415, send them to us for future episodes of Answer Us Back. And as always, send in your questions, in voicenote or written form to answermethispodcast@googlemail.com.

What does it actually mean to identify as gay? For many of us, claiming the word “gay” was liberating. It gave us language, belonging, community, and pride. It helped us make sense of our experiences and find people who understood us. But is there a point where identification turns into over-identification? In this episode, we unpack some big questions: What is identity, really? In what ways is identifying as gay empowering? How does it foster belonging and inclusion? When does it start to create division, hierarchy, or limitation? Is “gay” a culture — and if so, what does that even mean? Where's the line between healthy pride and rigid attachment? We explore the benefits and the drawbacks of tying ourselves closely to any identity — and how over-identifying can sometimes shrink us rather than expand us. This conversation isn't about minimizing being gay. It's about integrating it. About moving from performance to embodiment. From label to lived experience.

[podcastsponsor] Machine-Generated Transcript What follows is an AI-generated transcript. The transcript may contain errors and is not a substitute for listening to the episode. Christopher S. Penn: In this week’s In Ear Insights, let’s talk about AI and the way the things that we are measuring in business to measure AIs, the productivity, the benefits that you’re getting out of it. One of my favorite apps, Katie, is called Blind. This is an anonymous confessions app for the business world where people who work at companies—mostly in big business and big tech—share anonymous confessions. They have to say what company they’re with, but that’s it. There were three posts that really caught my eye over the weekend. The first was from a person who works at Capital One bank who said, “Hi, I’m a junior software engineer.” Three years into my career, my co‑workers are pumping out so many poll requests with Claude code and blitzing through jobs that used to take three to five days in less than an hour. I feel like every day at the office is a race to see who can generate more poll requests and complete them than anyone else. The second one was from JP Morgan Chase saying, “I just downloaded Claude coat and wtf. I don’t know what to think. Either we are cooked or saved.” The third was from an engineer at Tesla who said, “I joined recently as a contractor and don’t have access to Claude. I’m slower than the others on my team and it stresses me out.” So my question to you is this, Katie: Obviously people are using generative AI to move very fast. However, I don’t know if fast is the metric that we should be looking at here, particularly since a lot of people who manage coders don’t necessarily manage them well. They don’t. For example, very famously, Elon Musk, when he took over Twitter, fired people who didn’t write enough code. He measured people’s productivity solely on lines of code written. Anyone who’s actually written code for a living knows you want less code written rather than more because there’s a certain amount of elegance to writing less code. So my question to you is, as we talk about AI proficiency—sort of AI proficiency week here at Trust Insights—what would you tell people who are managing people using AI about measuring their proficiency and measuring the results that they’re getting? Katie Robbert: So first, let me answer your question. No, I do not frequent—was it Blind? Yeah. Anyone who knows me knows that I am honest and direct to a fault. So no, that would annoy me more than anything—just say it to my face. But that aside, I understand why apps like that exist. Not every company builds a culture where an open‑door policy is actually true. The policy is: the door is open only if you have positive things to share; the door is closed if you have complaints. I sympathize with people who feel the need to turn to those kinds of apps to express concern, frustration, fear. It seems, Chris, that a lot of the fear over the past couple of years is: “Will AI take my job?” In those environments, leadership decisions about process and output are really pushing for AI to take the job. What I’m not seeing is what the success metrics are. If the metric is faster and more, then you’re missing the third most important one—quality. We don’t know what kind of quality is being produced. Given those short snippets of context, we can assume it’s probably mediocre. It’s probably slightly above the bar, but nothing outstanding—enough to get by, enough to keep the lights on. For some larger companies, that’s fine because you can bury mediocre work in the politics and red tape of an enterprise‑sized organization. No one really expects much more, which is a little sad. So what I would say to managers is, number one, if you’re not clear on what you’re being measured on, or if your success metric is faster and more, head for the hills—run. That is not good. I mean it in all sincerity; that is not going to serve you in the long run because those metrics are not sustainable. Christopher S. Penn: And yet that’s what—particularly at a bigger company—where I can definitely, obviously at a company like Trust Insights, we’re four people. Outcomes are something we all measure because we have a direct line to outcomes. If we sell more courses, book more keynote speeches, get more retainer clients, we all have a hand in that and can see very clearly the business outcome. At a company like JP Morgan Chase, Bank of America, or Capital One, there are hundreds of thousands of employees. Your line of sight to any kind of business outcome is probably five layers of management removed. The front line is way over there—tellers, for example. You write the software that writes the software that manages the system the tellers use. So you don’t have clear outcomes from a business‑level perspective. Because I used to work at places like AT&T where you are just a cog in the machine, your outcomes very often are either faster or more because no one knows what else to measure. Katie Robbert: In companies like that, those outcomes are—quote, unquote—good enough because of the nature of what you produce. Consumers have become so dependent on your company that we often talk about the really crappy customer service at cable and Internet providers. There are only so many of them, and they’re all the same. We have become reliant on that technology and have no choice but to put up with crappy service from the big providers. The same goes for the financial industry. We don’t have a choice other than to rely on these crappy companies because we aren’t equipped to stand up our own financial institutions and change the rules. It’s a big, old industry, and that’s why they operate the way they do. It’s disheartening. When it comes down to humans, you have to make your own personal choices. Are you okay contributing to the mediocrity of the company and never really advancing? Chris, what you’ve been saying—what is the art of the possible? They don’t know, but they also don’t care. They’re not looking to disrupt the industry. No other companies are starting up to disrupt them because they’re so massive; they’re okay with the status quo, changing at a glacial pace, if at all. It’s not a great story to tell. You might have a consistent paycheck, but you might not have a lot of passion for the work you do. It might just be clock in at nine, clock out at five, with two 15‑minute breaks and a 30‑minute lunch—and that’s fine for a lot of people. That works for survival. Outside of that work environment is where you find joy, passion, and the things you’re really interested in. All to say, the advice I would give to managers is: how much are you willing to put up with? Those industries aren’t going to change. Christopher S. Penn: So in the context of AI proficiency, what do you advise them to focus on? Knowing that, to your point, these places are so calcified, faster is one of the only benchmarks that matter, alongside constantly shrinking budgets. Cheaper is built in because you have to do 5 % less every year. How do you suggest a manager or employee who feels the fastest typist wins the day and gets the promotion—even if the quality is zero—handle this? The Tesla engineer example is interesting: they don’t have access to generative AI, co‑workers do, they’re much faster, and the contractor fears being fired. How do we resolve this for team members, knowing that these companies are so calcified that even if a department takes a stand on quality, the other twenty departments competing for budget will say, “Great, you focus on quality; we’ll take your budget because we’ll produce ten times more next year.” Even quality sucks. Katie Robbert: The Tesla example is an outlier. We don’t have context for why that person doesn’t have access to generative AI—maybe they’re brand new. Contractors don’t get access to paid tools, so that explains it. When we talk about levels of AI proficiency, generic training doesn’t work; it doesn’t stick. Companies and individuals need to assess their AI proficiency. We typically do this on a six‑point scale, from Basic to Advanced. Within each level are skill sets: Level 1—editing, correcting grammar, asking it to write code. Level 2—writing code and reading code. Level 3—building QA plans. Level 4—providing business or product requirements, agile cues, or building a project plan. It’s like a career path: today I’m a junior analyst, tomorrow I want to be a senior analyst. The same applies to AI proficiency. My recommendation for managers and individuals stuck in those situations—or anyone looking to level up their AI proficiency—is to look at what’s next, what you don’t know. In the case of Tesla or JP Morgan, they will only produce a limited variety of things. In banking, look at the use cases and how you’re using AI. If you’re building code, how do you automate while keeping a human in the loop? Human‑in‑the‑loop means literal human intervention; you’re not just setting it and forgetting it like a rotisserie chicken. You must ensure a human is paying attention. Perhaps your KPIs aren’t quality of output, but if you start delivering incorrect work, customers complain, and the company loses money, the quality of your output will suddenly matter. It doesn’t matter how fast you’re creating it. For the Tesla contractor who lacks internal AI tools, they can get access to their own tools and build their skill set: acknowledge they’re not as fast as full‑time employees, determine what they need to do to match or outpace them, and work on it in their own time if they care. In that instance, the person is worried about job security, so it’s probably in their best interest to act. Christopher S. Penn: I like how you analogize the six levels to basically the three levels of management. The first two levels are individual contributors; the next two are middle management; the final two are leadership—going from typing the thing to delegating it entirely to someone else. That’s a great analogy. I think after this episode I’m going to revise that chart to help people wrap their brains around it. What does the level of AI performance efficiency mean? It means you go from individual contributor to leader, eventually leading machines—not necessarily humans. The Tesla example worries me because the company is essentially asking contractors to bring their own AI tools—a data‑privacy and security nightmare. Still, when I think about our clients who engage us for AI readiness assessments, we see a hierarchy of people with different proficiency levels outpacing each other. Is it fair to say that people with more proficiency—or who invest more in themselves—will blow past peers who are not? Do those peers need to worry about career viability when a peer becomes a mythical 10× engineer or marketer? Katie Robbert: The short answer is yes, but that’s true in any career path. Unless you’re in a company that promotes someone based on appearance rather than ability, which is another conversation, it’s absolutely true. Levels of AI proficiency run in parallel with organizational maturity. AI proficiency can’t stand alone without a certain amount of maturity within the organization. We often talk about foundations—the five Ps: documented processes, platforms, good governance, and privacy. Those have to exist for someone to be set up for success and move through AI proficiency levels. Otherwise, they’re becoming proficient against creative garbage. That won’t translate to better career opportunities because, boiled down, it’s garbage in, garbage out—you become proficient at moving garbage around, and nobody wants to hire that. Christopher S. Penn: An essay from last year discussed the AI reckoning in larger companies. It said AI is doing what decades of management consulting couldn’t—showcasing as you apply AI to processes. Entire levels of management are unnecessary, doing nothing but holding meetings and sending emails. The essay posited that mid‑level managers may realize they only push paper from point A to point B. In those cases, what should people in those positions think about for their own AI proficiency, knowing that improving it will reveal that they add little value? Katie Robbert: As someone who’s spent most of her career managing, I’ve often had to defend my role. Once, an agency considered dissolving my position because they thought I didn’t bring anything to the table—obviously not true. The team that grew from three people to a $3 million profit center also knows that. Managers need to think about delegation: not just handing off tasks, but ensuring the right people are in the right seats. Coaching is a big part of the job—bringing people up through their proficiency levels. If I’m a middle manager using the individual‑contributor, manager, leadership matrix, how do I get out of that vulnerable middle spot? Maybe I need to create more workflows, find efficiencies, save the budget, identify level‑one champions, and build them up. Those are the things someone in that middle vulnerable section should consider, because they are vulnerable. Many companies have managers who don’t do squat. I’ve worked alongside those managers; it’s maddening. One thing that will evolve with the manager role is that you can no longer be just a manager. You can’t just manage things; you have to bring some level of individual contribution and thought leadership to the role. It’s no longer enough to just manage—if that makes sense. Christopher S. Penn: It makes sense. Over the weekend I was working on something for myself: as technology evolves and I delegate more to it, the guardrails for quality have to get stricter. I revised the rules I use with my Python coding agents—new, enhanced, advanced rules with more guidelines and descriptions about what the agent is and is not allowed to do. This morning my kickoff process broke, so I told the agent to fix it according to the new rules. I realized the previous application sucked, and I fixed it. Now it’s much happier. I think building quality guardrails will differentiate managers who take on AI management—not just people management. Yes, AI can be faster, but there’s no guarantee it’s better. If I’m a manager who gets faster and better results than peers who just hope it works, I keep my job. What do you think about that angle? Katie Robbert: It makes sense. Take the middle‑manager example: the VP says, “Client needs these five things.” The hierarchy follows—manager, then individual contributors. The middle person can step up, create a process, develop a proof‑of‑concept example based on the VP’s input, delegate with quality assurance, and cut down iterations. That saves time, saves budget, gets results faster, and reduces frustration because expectations are clear. Christopher S. Penn: The axiom we talk about when discussing AI optimization is bigger, better, faster, cheaper. Faster obviously saves time and money. We don’t often talk about bigger and better—doing things that add value that wasn’t there before. The value you create should be higher quality. To wrap up AI proficiency, we have three divisions, six levels, and a focus: if you’re worried about someone else being faster, be as fast and be better quality.

The defense in the Kouri Richins murder trial has built its case around one central argument: Eric Richins had a history of substance use, and his death was a tragic accident. On the tenth day of testimony, a private investigator hired by Eric's own family took the stand and systematically dismantled that theory from every angle.Todd Gabler spent roughly a year investigating Eric's death independently before Kouri was arrested. Operating under rules that gave him access law enforcement couldn't get without a warrant, he pulled phone billing records and found that Carmen Lauber — the housekeeper prosecutors say sourced the fentanyl — was Kouri's third most frequent contact in the months surrounding Eric's death. He flagged Lauber's criminal history and drug court violations to the Sheriff's Office before detectives had identified her as a key figure. He placed GPS trackers on Kouri's car and her mother's vehicle. He conducted nearly 50 interviews. He handed over two hard drives of evidence. And when the defense asked whether other fentanyl sources in Summit County could explain Eric's death, Gabler said he looked into it and found no connection to this case.The defense noted he is not law enforcement. He agreed. He also made clear he doesn't need to be.That testimony came on a day when the jury also watched video of Kouri celebrating the day after Eric died, heard a forensic examiner say Eric's signature on a life insurance application was likely forged, listened to the full 911 call in which Kouri describes her husband as cold and dead weight, and heard a detective testify that Eric's sister flagged Kouri's potential involvement from the moment she arrived at the scene.The prosecution is nearly done. One witness remains.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

For anyone that grew up without a strong sense of connection to cooking or eating cultural foods, it can be daunting to get into the kitchen and make your own relationship with food. But for today's guest, Jamie Tracey, that lack of relationship was enough incentive to try an honest approach to building something that would last.   Jamie is a self-taught creator and Canadian cook that created Anti-Chef, a culinary experiment that plays out in real time on his YouTube series. It captures the good, bad, chaos, and triumph that comes with learning and loving to cook. With more than half a million subscribers, Anti-Chef follows Jamie as he dives headfirst into the hilarious, messy, and human side of trying something new. From Julia Child's most intimidating recipes to Michelin-level masterpieces and celebrity "cage matches," Jamie takes his audience along for the ride—mistakes, meltdowns, and all.  In today's conversation, Jamie discusses what food disconnects can look like, how he leveraged his film background and lack of cooking skills to create his heartfelt and entertaining YouTube series, the Canadian food culture and its impact on shaping how he thought about food and eating in the 90s, the process of self-taught cooking and its impact when you have an audience watching your highs and lows, and the lessons he's learned from cooking through Julia Child recipes for the show.

Environmental History, #2 of 4. Many of the conservationists who've defended the Arctic heralded it as the “last great wilderness,” an ecosystem and landscape unmarred by corporate greed and violence, a place that needs to be preserved because of its “pristine” and “untouched” beauty. While well-intentioned, this narrative is, of course, problematic, because the absence of white settler colonial development is not the same thing as “pristine” or “untouched.” Entire communities of people call the arctic home. The Gwich'in and Inuit nations live on and have stewarded the northernmost reaches of this continent for some 24,000 years. At every imperialist and capitalist effort to destroy those lands with their greed, the Gwich'in and (some) Inuit have shown up to protest, testify, and speak out against those violences.

There may come a point in your coaching business where on paper, everything is going pretty well. You have clients. You're getting results. Your niche “makes sense.” And yet… Something feels off. In this episode, I'm talking about what it really means when you start to feel like you've outgrown your coaching niche — and how to evolve without blowing up your website, scrapping your SEO, or having a full identity crisis. Because here's the truth: Outgrowing a niche isn't failure. It's often growth. I walk you through: The subtle signs you're feeling misaligned (resentment, depletion, creative boredom) Why niching is about clarity — not a life sentence How I personally test new ideas and programs without rebranding everything The difference between being pushed by frustration and pulled by expansion Why you're absolutely allowed to have more than one niche And how your coaching identity — not your niche — is the real anchor in your business I also share how this evolution has shown up in my own work over the years — from burnout coaching to alcohol work, to life transitions, to business coaching — and how I've allowed multiple niches to coexist under one consistent brand and philosophy. And if you're feeling the pull toward a new niche but questioning whether you have the skill set or confidence to support a broader range of clients, this is exactly why I created the Confident Coaching Skills Intensive (CCSI). The CCSI is designed to deepen your coaching confidence so you're not limited by one narrow topic. It helps you expand your range, coach more flexibly, and trust yourself in new territory — so when you feel that evolution happening, you can move toward it intelligently instead of reactively. Enrolment is closing soon, and it's a small, intimate room. If this episode resonates, that might be your sign. Bottom line? You don't need to burn your business down because you're bored. But you also don't need to ignore the boredom. It might be the beginning of your next great coaching offer. Episode Resources:

“Music is a force that brings us all together, wherever you're from.”For this ENTIRE holy month of Ramadan, we wanted to hear some music by MUSLIM artists (beyond Dua Lipa, Cat Stevens, AR Rahman, and Zane Mallick) — so we're bringing back MMusic with longtime FrieMMd of the Pod + our favorite Egyptian American from Cleveland, Seif Hamid, aka the musical artist Soof. This week we're listening to "Yallah" by ABIR - a big, pure voice that we don't hear as often anymore. This track is a catchy pop that blends worlds that you can't help but listen to and dance (challenge accepted). The headline of the song is about a love, devotion, and hospitality unique to the Arab world - for Arabs and beyond. It's a proud song that announces that they are here in a big way, and we should be listening.LEARN ABOUT SEIF / SOOF: Soof.studio // soofworld.bandcamp.com/musicThis is a replay of a past episode from April 2022

Luke 7:36-50, Colossians 2:13-14 Jesus would always take an individual's ENTIRE story into account when He INTERACTED with them. “Anyone who has seen ME, has seen the FATHER.” – John 14:9 Your SIN, your past, your failure, none of that DEFINES you in the eyes of God, your Heavenly Father. But, your Heavenly Father does […]

Energy prices renewed their surge higher today. As it stands, WTI is now just shy of $80 per barrel, up 22% in a week. Wholesale gasoline is now above $2.60 per gallon, a 30% rise since last Thursday. These are the biggest short-term energy spikes we've seen since 2022. Because of that, we have to start seriously considering various potential paths for this burgeoning oil shock, up to and including a 1990 scenario where conflict in the Middle East sent energy prices skyrocketing and tipped a weak economy here and around the world into full-blown recession. Eurodollar University's Money & Macro Analysis

Welcome to Season 8 of Sal Silvester on the Future of Leadership - The Transformation Season. The pace of change is accelerating. AI. Technological disruption. Shifting workplace expectations. Entire business models evolving in real time. The question for leaders is no longer whether change is happening — it's: How do I scale my leadership at the same pace as the world around me… and stay grounded while performing at my highest level? In this opening episode, Sal kicks off the season with a solo conversation focused on one of the most critical leadership capabilities of our time: navigating change from the inside out. Before welcoming this season's guests - including wellness pioneer Udo Erasmus, performance psychologist Dr. Bobby Low, organizational psychologist Melissa Doman, and others - Sal lays the foundation with three practical tools to help you better understand: How people actually respond to change The neuroscience behind resistance, fear, and uncertainty A simple framework to lead yourself - and others - through transition with clarity and composure Transformation isn't just about strategy. It's about identity. It's about rewiring how we think, respond, and lead when the ground beneath us shifts. If you're a growth-minded leader who wants to elevate human performance - starting with your own - this season is for you.
