Party Favorz Holiday Edition 2025: Sleigh the Night Party Favorz returns with our annual Holiday Edition 2025 Circuit Anthems, a high-energy release built on Tribal House beats and peak-hour momentum that sleighs the night from start to finish. This year's Holiday Edition is designed to keep the party moving long after the lights go out, delivering a powerful blend of modern circuit anthems and driving tribal rhythms. As always, this release reflects what Party Favorz does best: staying ahead of the curve while honoring the tracks and artists that move dance floors worldwide. A Stacked Roster of Circuit and Tribal Heavyweights Holiday Edition 2025 features an impressive lineup of DJs and producers who continue to shape the modern circuit and tribal sound. You'll hear standout contributions from Danny Verde, Dario Xavier, Leanh, José Spinnin Cortes, Edson Pride, Dirty Disco, Heriqmoraes, Eick Ibiza, Guy Scheiman, Nick Harvey, and many more. Each artist brings their own signature energy, but together they form a cohesive journey that balances relentless rhythm with emotional lift. This is the kind of set built for packed dance floors, late-night sessions, and hands-in-the-air moments that don't fade once the night peaks. Holiday Edition 2024: Tribal Beats To Sleigh Your Holidays [Updated] The Party Favorz Annual Fundraiser and Other News I Need Your Help Putting on the Brakes! Holiday Edition 2009 Volume 1 Classic Songs, Reimagined for Today's Dance Floor One of the defining strengths of Holiday Edition 2025 is how it bridges generations of dance music. Several iconic songs are reworked into modern club weapons while preserving the heart that made them classics in the first place. Robyn's “With Every Heartbeat” gets a fresh and emotional update courtesy of Manuel De Diego, GSP, and Nalaya, giving the track new life within a circuit framework. The Temper Trap's “Sweet Disposition” is beautifully retold by Leanh, Nikki Valentine, and Pedro Arms, transforming an indie staple into a soaring club moment. Nick Harvey teams up with Audrey Callahan on the powerful anthem “No More Heartache,” delivering one of the set's most emotionally charged highlights. Meanwhile, ADÉLA's breakthrough track “SexOnTheBeat” brings a sharp, contemporary edge that fits seamlessly alongside the more familiar reworks. You'll also hear major crowd favorites like “Man I Need” by Olivia Dean, the enduring classic “Happiness” by Alexis Jordan, “Genie in a Bottle” by Christina Aguilera, and Taylor Swift's latest “The Fate of Ophelia,” all woven into the mix with purpose and precision. A Smart Whitney Tribute That Hits Hard One of the most talked-about moments in the set is the clever reimagining of Whitney Houston's “I Wanna Dance With Somebody.” Reworked as a duet featuring the talented Calum Scott and remixed by Dirty Disco, this version strikes the perfect balance between nostalgia and modern circuit intensity. It's respectful. It's uplifting. And it's guaranteed to send hands into the air when it hits its stride. The Final Remix Drop Before Year-End Rankings Holiday Edition 2025 marks our final release of new remixes before shifting focus to our annual roundup of the Top Dance Songs of the Year. That series will begin rolling out in the final weeks of December, with the goal of wrapping everything up before New Year's Eve. If timing pushes beyond that window, the remaining installments will follow shortly after January 1st. Either way, the countdown is on. Behind the Scenes: Rising Costs and Continued Commitment It's been a challenging year behind the scenes, but the commitment to delivering quality never wavered. Producing Holiday Edition 2025 alone cost over $80, up significantly from the usual $50 average for previous circuit sets. Jingle Electric came in at $50 as well, largely due to artists and producers holding back tracks from DJ services for extended periods. Despite rising costs, Party Favorz continues to prioritize timely releases. Instead of waiting for tracks to become mainstream hits, we focus on delivering music as it's released, spotlighting songs we believe will dominate dance floors in the months ahead. Looking Ahead to 2026 and Beyond As we move into 2026, Party Favorz will continue its run of the latest dance club hits, paired with thoughtfully reworked classics. Long-standing series like BackSpin remain a key part of the lineup, and we're also planning to expand the long-overdue Legacy series, highlighting DJs who helped shape the dance music scene and whose influence still resonates today. The mission remains the same: respect the past, spotlight the present, and keep pushing forward.

Those modest monthly contributions make a real difference in offsetting ongoing production costs and help ensure the podcast can continue delivering high-quality sets year-round. That's all for now. I hope everyone is enjoying the holiday season. We'll be back shortly with our Top Dance Songs of the Year countdown. Until the next time...ENJOY!

Costs to fix our water infrastructure are increasing as we get a better picture of its current state. Every council has now submitted their plan under the Government's Local Water Done Well programme. As Newstalk ZB first revealed last week, the final bill is expected to be almost $48 billion - about $9 billion more than first thought. Water New Zealand Chief Executive Gillian Blythe told Andrew Dickens with all the plans submitted, we've now got a better picture of water infrastructure than we ever have before. She says it's like when you look at your own house and realise you've got to spend some money fixing a roof or painting a window. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Lebanon's Demographic Decline and Political Stagnation: Colleague Hussain Abdul-Hussain reports that Pope Leo's visit highlighted Lebanon's diminishing Christian population, now estimated at perhaps one-quarter, with the government remaining weak and reluctant to disarm Hezbollah, fearing foreign deals that sacrifice national interests; while civil war is unlikely, the country remains dominated by an Iranian-backed militia. 1950 BEIRUT

This episode has been tightened up with a volume fix on “Have You Ever Loved” by Hannah Laing & Hannah Boleyn, a smoother transition into “Bring Me To Life” by Tiësto & FORS, the removal of “Bullshit” for better flow, and a bass adjustment on “Good Luck” by James Hype feat. Pia Mia to clean up the drop. Estimated reading time: 7 minutes

Since 1999, there have been more than 430 school shootings across the nation. Oregon alone has had eight incidents since 2008, according to CNN. With school shootings being a concern for parents, teachers and students, a new industry around school safety has emerged. Estimated to be worth $4 billion, school shooting preparedness and security is projected to continue to grow. From panic buttons and bullet-resistant backpacks to drill simulations and AI gun detection software, the amount of products and services being sold to schools and districts varies wildly. A new HBO documentary, “Thoughts and Prayers,” takes a look at this industry and follows students, teachers and community members during a mass-casualty event drill in Medford, Oregon. Directors Zackary Canepari and Jessica Dimmock join us to share more about the school security industry.

Hey everyone, I wanted to let you all know that I'll be giving online classes starting this January, and that I'm still accepting new people for the very first class. I recommend doing so asap as I've already had to open up a second class due to that amazing response I've received so far. All details below.The class is entitled “Beware of Small States: An overview of Lebanon from 1975 to 2025.” We will go beyond sensationalist headlines and shallow coverage, and beyond simplistic, top-down explanations for the country. Instead of a linear timeline of events, which you can get from Wikipedia anyway, you will get a messy one. After all, politics is not linear. Political actors evoke events from the recent or not-so-recent past as part of their politics in the present. In addition to the structured syllabus, I will use personal stories as someone who grew up in Lebanon in a very conservative, at times even Far Right, Christian environment, to explain how my own personal journey away from right-wing and towards left-wing, quasi-anarchist, politics has helped me understand Lebanon better, and hopefully help you too.RegisterJust send me an email at ⁠ayoub@thefirethesetimes.com⁠ or a Signal message @ ayoub.02. I will send you the syllabus as well as all the required details including how to pay for the class if you're interested in taking it.When? Weekly from Saturday Jan 17th, 4pm UK time. 5 sessions. Week 1 (Jan 17): The stories we tell ourselves about this painfully ordinary country.Week 2 (Jan 24): Five academic-y concepts that are easier to understand than they seem.Week 3 (Jan 31): We Are the Children of the Children of War.Week 4 (Feb 7): From Life in the Midst of History to The CollapseWeek 5 (Feb 14): Lebanon yesterday, today, tomorrowFees: $300Discounts: For Hauntologies (my newsletter) subscribers (past or present)50% off for paid subscribers100% off for Founding MembersAnyone joining the class will get:Access to all 5 sessionsLifetime access to the Google DriveLifetime access to the Hauntologies newsletter without paying extra (subscribers pay $50 a year on average)Discounts on future classesAn invitation to join a Signal groupMore classes to comeIn addition to repeating this class, here are the titles and brief descriptions of the other classes currently being prepared. You can already register your interest by email or Signal to those as well - and I'll just send you an email or text when they're ready.The Ghosts of Israel's Future, looking at what the horrors unleashed by Israel during the ongoing genocide reveal about that country's politics, and the people, Jews, Israelis and Palestinians alike, who predicted it. Estimated fee is $300 for 5 sessions. Against Multipolar Imperialism, looking at why we cannot accept multipolarity as a valid alternative to a US-dominated world, especially as that involves accepting authoritarian states and effectively sacrificing whole populations as collateral. We will look at China, Taiwan, Ukraine, Russia, so-called Xinjiang and Inner Mongolia, Hong Kong, Syria, Israel-Palestine, Iran, El Salvador, Argentina, Tigray and Ethiopia, Bosnia and of course Lebanon. Estimated fee is $300 for 5 sessions. Cancelling the Apocalypse: From James Baldwin to Solarpunk and beyond. Estimated fee is $300 for 5 sessions. Postwar Hauntings: Modern Lebanon Through Its Cinema. This will be a much more in-depth exploration of Lebanon post-1990 through its cinema, which was the topic of my PhD dissertation. We will watch movies, discuss them, and explore Lebanon through them. Estimated fee is $600 for 6 sessions.

Estimated reading time: 6 minutes Fall Throwback Dance Party Volume III: The Moment It All Clicked Party Favorz is closing out the season with the third volume of our Fall Throwback Dance Party, and this one hits in a way the earlier entries didn't quite manage. Volume III blends familiar classics from the '70s and '80s with '90s House favorites and early-Millennium gems, but with a twist. These aren't straight-up recreations. Instead, you get bold mashups, creative overlays, and unexpected pairings that turn well-known tracks into something entirely different. Block & Crown and their extended circle continue to work their magic by stitching together instrumentals you know with vocals you may not expect. They frequently pull in Rap or Hip-Hop verses that weren't part of the original songs, yet somehow elevate the energy. The result feels like two different worlds colliding on the dance floor—and it works far better than logic says it should. Their grasp of what drives a crowd is why these sets land so well. It really is a case of “it takes two to make a thing go right,” and these producers prove that point with every release. A Tough Start to the Fall Throwback Dance Party Series Top Dance Club Songs of the Year 2024 Volume III | The Year's Biggest Bangers! Fall Throwback Dance Party kicks off with Volume I, packed with 70s–90s magic X-Mas Dance 2K18 | The Essential Christmas Dance Mix 90s House Music Classics Volume 7: Keep On Movin' Summer Throwback Dance Party 2025: Volume 1 To be blunt, I wasn't feeling the first two volumes. Part of that was on me. I've been in and out of the hospital twice since late October dealing with sepsis, and even though the doctors helped me through it, the medications had me foggy. My focus was shot, my energy was low, and listening to music—something I normally love—felt like a chore. I nearly shelved the entire Fall Throwback Dance Party run because the earlier mixes just weren't clicking. On the drive home from the hospital, I revisited Volume II and felt a wave of annoyance settle in. Everything felt repetitive. The songs blurred together. Even though these producers often use templates in their workflow—which isn't unusual for remix culture—it still didn't land for me. With nurses, physical therapists, occupational therapists, and every type of specialist stopping by throughout the week, I didn't have the mental space to sit down and give the music the attention it deserved. Everything was overwhelming, and Party Favorz took a back seat whether I wanted it to or not. Thanksgiving Break: The Turning Point Thanksgiving morning, I woke up around 2 AM with a rare pocket of quiet. I opened my folder for Volume III and realized the playlist was still unfinished. There weren't enough tracks to shape it into a full mix. Because Block & Crown and the related Funky House crew release tons of material every week, I decided to check my DJ service to see what I had missed since my first pass in October. This is where everything changed.A wave of strong releases had dropped—finally showcasing the punch, bounce, and grit that I expect from these producers. I downloaded everything that caught my ear and threw it straight into the playlist. Once I began mixing, the frustration I carried from the earlier volumes melted away. The grooves locked in. The energy felt right. For the first time in months, I felt like myself again behind the decks. Tightening the Mix The next night (again at 2 AM—apparently that's my hour), I sat down to tighten the transitions. Many of these Funky House tracks have long outros that drag on. Beatport may categorize them as Funky House, but the arrangement leans heavily toward late '90s and early-Millennium structure—long build-ups, long breakdowns, and long fade-outs. That style worked for club DJs back then, but modern listeners want momentum. So I trimmed the fat.I cut down repetitive endings and kept the energy moving. Track-to-track flow is everything in a Fall Throwback Dance Party set, and these edits keep things from losing steam. Why These Sets Aren't Easy People often assume these sets are simple because they rely on recognizable songs. The opposite is true. Most tracks in this space avoid traditional breakdowns. That means I can't always use my standard approach to mixing. I pull out techniques I rarely rely on, adjust on the fly, and shape transitions that suit the odd structures these remixes use. After producing so many Throwback sessions over the years, though, I've gotten fast at finding the sweet spot. What once took hours now comes together far more efficiently. That confidence helped Volume III come to life without the struggle that dragged down the earlier volumes. Looking Ahead: Holiday Edition and Year-End Plans Time is tight this year, so the Holiday Edition may or may not happen. Those mixes cost the most to produce, but recent donations have helped enough that it's at least possible. If I go forward with it, the Top Dance Songs of the Year rollout will likely start in late December and wrap in early January 2026. I've done that before, and it's the only realistic way to balance everything happening behind the scenes. Either way, Volume III of the Fall Throwback Dance Party marks a return to form, and I hope that comes through when you listen. Until the next time...ENJOY!

You'll learn the truth about estimated taxes, how safe harbor rules really work, and the simple calculation that keeps you penalty-free without overpaying. Tiffany walks through real client examples that saved tens of thousands in unnecessary payments — plus the exact system you can use to keep more money in your business year-round.

MCALLEN, Texas - Ralph Garcia, interim chief operating officer for McAllen Economic Development Corporation, has given a brief update on the various projects the group is working on. “Right now, the EDC is working with about 25 active projects. This represents a total of about three million square feet of space. Estimated jobs are about 8,000 and the economic impact of that is roughly about $5 billion dollars,” Garcia said a quarterly stakeholders meeting.“Primarily, our companies are coming from France, Sweden, Mexico, the US and Japan. Those are the activities that we're seeing right now.”Garcia said McAllen EDC has secured two new leads during the current quarter, along with 23 existing prospects."We also continue to work on state leads. Most of what we're seeing coming through, the focus is on manufacturing and, of course, distribution and logistics. Those are projects that we continue to work with.”Garcia said the MEDC team working on active projects includes Susie Flores in McAllen and Rafael Angel Ortiz Salazar in Reynosa. “And, of course, we continue to do BRE (business retention and expansion) visits with a lot of our existing business, both in McAllen and Reynosa. We find that most of the leads that we're generating right now are through a BRE visit, where we're learning of current projects that companies are looking at.”Garcia said quite a few of those expansion projects involve South America.“We're trying to leverage those projects, to look at Texas as an alternative option.

6. Continued Defeats, Financial Ruin, and Schleicher's Strategy. Timothy Ryback discusses how the Nazi party continued its decline, suffering losses in Thuringia and facing severe financial ruin, estimated to be 90 million Reichsmarks in debt. A desperate push for a majority in the small state of Lippe in January failed, though Hitler publicly declared it a triumph. Simultaneously, Chancellor Schleicher, the political mastermind, actively negotiated with Gregor Strasser. Schleicher aimed to break apart the NSDAP by detaching Strasser's socialist faction from Hitler's hardliners (Goebbels and Göring), thereby creating a stable, centrist coalition. Strasser was acting to save the National Socialist Movement through compromise, not to betray Hitler. 1933

This is a replay of an episode I did 10 years ago for the 40th anniversary of the sinking. Tonight I talk about the wreck of the S.S. Edmund Fitzgerald Timeline: NOVEMBER 9 8:30 AM The Edmund Fitzgerald is loaded with taconite pellets at Burlington Northern Railroad, Dock 1. Superior, Wisconsin The ship is scheduled to transport the cargo to Zug Island on the Detroit River. 2:20 PM The Fitzgerald departs Lake Superior en route of Detroit with 26,116 tons of taconite pellets. 2:39 PM The National Weather Service issues gale warnings for the area which the Fitzgerald is sailing in. Captain Cooper on the Anderson radios a freighter (the Edmund Fitzgerald) that he spots. 4:15 PM The Fitzgerald spots the Arthur M. Anderson some 15 miles behind it. NOVEMBER 10 1:00 AM Weather report from the Fitzgerald. The report from the Fitzgerald shows her to be 20 miles south of Isle Royale. Winds are at 52 knots, with waves ten feet in height. 7:00 AM Weather report from the Fitzgerald. Winds are at 35 knots, waves of ten feet. This is the last weather report that the Edmund Fitzgerald will ever make. 3:15 PM Captain Jesse Cooper, (J.C.) of the S.S. Arthur M. Anderson watches the Fitzgerald round Caribou Island and comments that the Fitzgerald is much closer to Six Fathom Shoal than he would want to be. 3:20 PM Anderson reports winds coming from the Northwest at 43 knots. 3:30 PM Radio transmission between the Fitzgerald and the Anderson Captain McSorley (C.M.) to Captain Cooper (C.C.): C.M.: “Anderson, this is the Fitzgerald. I have sustained some topside damage. I have a fence rail laid down, two vents lost or damaged, and a list. I'm checking down. Will you stay by me til I get to Whitefish?” C.C.: “Charlie on that Fitzgerald. Do you have your pumps going?” C.M.: “Yes, both of them 4:10 PM The Fitzgerald radios the Arthur M. Anderson requesting radar assistance for the remainder of the voyage. Fitzgerald: “Anderson, this is the Fitzgerald. I have lost both radars. Can you provide me with radar plots till we reach Whitefish Bay?” Anderson: “Charlie on that, Fitzgerald. We'll keep you advised of position.” About 4:39 PM The Fitzgerald cannot pick up the Whitefish Point radio beacon. The Fitzgerald radios the Coast Guard station at Grand Marais on Channel 16, the emergency channel. Between 4:30 and 5:00 PM The Edmund Fitzgerald calls for any vessel in the Whitefish Point area regarding information about the beacon and light at Whitefish Point. They receive an answer by the saltwater vessel Avafors that the beacon and the light are not operating. Estimated between 5:30 and 6:00 PM Radio transmission between the Avafors and the Fitzgerald. Avafors: “Fitzgerald, this is the Avafors. I have the Whitefish light now but still am receiving no beacon. Over.” Fitzgerald: “I'm very glad to hear it.” Avafors: “The wind is really howling down here. What are the conditions where you are?” Fitzgerald: (Undiscernable shouts heard by the Avafors.) “DON'T LET NOBODY ON DECK!” Avafors: “What's that, Fitzgerald? Unclear. Over.” Fitzgerald: “I have a bad list, lost both radars. And am taking heavy seas over the deck. One of the worst seas I've ever been in.” Avafors: “If I'm correct, you have two radars.” Fitzgerald: “They're both gone.” Sometime around 7:00 PM The Anderson is struck by two huge waves that put water on the ship, 35 feet above the water line. The waves hit with enough force to push the starboard lifeboat down, damaging the bottom. 7:10 PM Radio transmission between the Anderson and the Fitzgerald. The Fitzgerald is still being followed by the Arthur M. Anderson. They are about 10 miles behind the Fitzgerald. Anderson: “Fitzgerald, this is the Anderson. Have you checked down?” Fitzgerald: “Yes we have.” Anderson: “Fitzgerald, we are about 10 miles behind you, and gaining about 1 1/2 miles per hour. Fitzgerald, there is a target 19 miles ahead of us.

A couple of months ago we covered Prosopagnosia – the inability to recognise faces. Following on from that, today we're covering Aphantasia – the inability to see mental images. Most of the time most of us, if asked to remember something or “picture” something in our minds, we create a mental image of the thing or person. For example, if asked to remember what you had for breakfast this morning, many of us will mentally see the weetbix and toast – not always in perfect detail, but there will be a picture of the thing. But for a small number of people, this is just a theoretical idea. They have aphantasia. Estimated to affect about 1% of people – not a disorder in itself but considered one end of a spectrum related to how well or poorly we can visualise things in our mind. Some people become aphantasic after a head injury or damage to the brain. Others have never had it and assume that terms like “mental pictures” were just meant to illustrate the idea of thinking about something, rather than referring to an actual thing that other people do. There's been a growth in the use of the term aphantasia since the mid 2000s after the publication of an article in a neuroscience journal describing the condition, which led others to go “I've got that too!” At the other end of the spectrum is hyperphantasia – mental images are so clear and vivid that it's hard to distinguish them from reality. People are aware that their visions are imaginary though – if you don't realise this it's an hallucination. Some things that are associated with aphantasia: over-represented in people who work in maths and IT roles; much poorer autobiographical memory; also much poorer recognition of other people's faces and probably some overlap with prosopagnosia; occurs more in people with autism. For hyperphantasia – much better autobiographical memory and over-represented in artists. Interestingly, people with aphantasia typically report that they do dream and see images in dreams. There are some indications that there are differences in brain wiring for people at either end of the mental imagery spectrum but no conclusive proof yet! Some suggestion that most children have very strong mental imagery but that they lose this ability as they grow, and the brain goes through a “pruning” process whereby it loses connections that aren't so useful or needed.

Food stamp recipients will receive up to 65 percent of their normal benefits in November, according to court filings by Trump administration officials on Nov. 5. That's an increase on the 50 percent outlined in previous filings and in a U.S. Department of Agriculture memorandum sent to states on Tuesday.As President Donald Trump toured Asia in late October, an Epoch Times reporter traveling with the White House entourage met with repeated roadblocks in accessing key press events, which fit an ongoing pattern of interference by communist authorities in Beijing. Along with its sister media outlet NTD, The Epoch Times was ultimately denied access to two key press events in which world leaders gathered in late October—the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) and the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) summits. Both summits revealed the regional power of China's communist regime, which signed trade pacts and pressed for stronger trade ties with nations already heavily tethered to China economically.

Ferenc Toth discusses the potential AI bubble, citing Jerome Powell's belated acknowledgment of asset purchases and the overvaluation of tech stocks, with 55% of fund managers believing tech stocks are overvalued. He highlights the lack of energy to power the AI needs. It is estimated the U.S. will need 70 new nuclear reactors to meet the needs of data centers by 2028. Ferenc also notes the disparity between high and low-income consumer confidence, with the top 1/3 of earners feeling 25% more confident. He advises reducing market risk through annuities and index products, emphasizing the importance of long-term investment strategies and risk management.

This week's show features stories from Japan, Radio Deutsche-Welle, France 24, and Radio Havana Cuba. http://youthspeaksout.net/swr251017.mp3 (29:00) From JAPAN- 97% of new vehicle sales in Norway are electric, with the goal of 100% to be reached soon. In the US tax credits for those purchasing EVs have been stopped, leaving GM and other manufacturers cutting back on production. From GERMANY- A large percentage of international news this week was focused on the ceasefire in Gaza. I thought this piece from Germany covered most of the discussion points. Distribution of food and supplies is restricted to less than half of what was expected. Gazans are returning to almost complete ruins, with water and electrical sources destroyed. Estimated costs to rebuild are $70 billion and will take a decade. An interview with Andrew Gilmour former UN Assistant Secretary-General for Human Rights. He says the scale of the destruction to Gaza is the worst anyone has seen- it was bombed more severely than the combination of Berlin, London, Hamburg, and several other cities combined during WWII. He thinks Israel will impede removing 60 million tons of rubble and may destroy any new construction as they have done in the West Bank. He doubts that there will be any accountability for the war crimes that have taken place in Palestine. From FRANCE- The US military assassinated alleged drug smugglers in the Caribbean for the fifth time this week while Trump said he was authorizing the CIA and considering airstrikes in Venezuela. A discussion on whether these are first steps in regime change. From CUBA- The awarding of the Nobel Peace Prize to Maria Machado was quite controversial, since she supports US intervention in her country. Hamas has rejected any role for Tony Blair in governing Gaza, based on his history on Iraq and Afghanistan.

Melanie Lauridsen, the AICPA's vice president–Tax Policy & Advocacy, joined the JofA podcast on Tuesday to provide context on the government shutdown and its effect on IRS services, along with discussion on other tax advocacy topics. The interview was conducted the day before the IRS announced that most of its operations were closed and that a plan to furlough employees had begun “for everyone except already-identified excepted and exempt employees.” In the Q&A, Lauridsen also provided background on shutdowns and their effect on filing season. She also explained why the IRS announcement in September that it was phasing out paper checks for tax refunds has generated so much buzz among practitioners. What you'll learn from this episode: A history lesson on government shutdowns, which previously went by a different name. Why the IRS definition of “filing season” is different than reality for many tax practitioners. Why the IRS announcement about ending tax refunds by paper check has been a popular topic among practitioners. An example of the guidance “trickling in” on new tax provisions. Estimated cost savings for certain businesses as a result of the preservation of the state and local tax deduction for pass-through entities. The filing-season concerns that “get ramped up” because of the government shutdown.

Estimated to be more than 130 million years old, the ancient rainforest of Sabah comes alive in sound as night descends. The air vibrates with the calls of nocturnal creatures, forming a chorus in the darkness. From the steady hum of countless insects to the distant cries of animals hidden, the forest pulses with life.  Within this vast wilderness dwell some of the world's rarest and most remarkable beings - the Orangutan, Proboscis Monkey, Pygmy Elephant, Rhinoceros Hornbill, and Estuarine Crocodile - together known as the famous ‘Borneo Five'. Wrapped in shadows and mystery, the rainforest holds their presence like a secret, offering a timeless symphony. Recorded by Jake Edwards.

Go to www.LearningLeader.com for full show notes This is brought to you by Insight Global. If you need to hire 1 person, hire a team of people, or transform your business through Talent or Technical Services, Insight Global's team of 30,000 people around the world have the hustle and grit to deliver. Sukhinder Singh Cassidy is the CEO of Xero. Xero is a cloud-based accounting software designed for small businesses. They did $2.1 billion in revenue last year. Over the past 25 years, Sukhinder has had leadership roles at Google, Amazon, and StubHub. Notes: Key Learnings Strategic CEO Job Search Criteria – Sukhinder had four non-negotiables: macro tailwinds/good market, customer she could be passionate about, strong business model, and a role where she could "learn for miles" for 5-8 years. Only two companies met her criteria in 18 months of searching. "Sell, Interview, Sell" Hiring Process – First meeting is 50% selling the opportunity to attract top talent. Only after candidates lean in do you shift to intensive interviewing with leadership team exposure. The Virtuous Cycle Framework – Customer at the top, supported by "high purpose, high performance, high people" culture. "It's an 'and,' not an 'or'" - you don't get to choose just one element. Back-Channeling is Critical – Reference checking happens throughout the entire interview process, not just at the end. "The most important thing is not just front channel... it's all the back channel." Values Alignment Over Pure Qualifications – "Go where my values fit and my strengths are valued." Cultural fit becomes the deciding factor in close hiring calls, not competence. The Layoff Leadership Test – Six weeks after joining, Sukhinder laid off 900 people based on McKinsey benchmarking. Showed consistency between the outside-in analysis presented to the board and transparent communication to employees. Portfolio of Bets Strategy – Balance growth, profitability, and customer happiness through diversified initiatives ranging from "safe moves" to "flyers," with clear probability assessments. Consistency as Culture Foundation – "Culture means consistency of message and what's important." Authenticity through change, not resistance to change. The 10-Slide CEO Interview Deck Framework: Vision statement (destination in 2-3 years) Outside-in market analysis Competitive landscape SWOT analysis of current position Five key strategic moves Implementation approach ("the how") Estimated outcomes with probability ranges Practical Application: Job Search Strategy – Define 4-5 non-negotiable criteria upfront. Be willing to wait for roles that truly meet your standards rather than taking "the job before the job." Interview Preparation – Always build a comprehensive thesis deck even if not requested. Use it to clarify your own thinking and demonstrate strategic capability. Hiring Excellence – Spend equal time selling the opportunity and evaluating candidates. Use diverse interview panels and back-channel extensively throughout the process. Cultural Leadership – Be consistent in messaging across all stakeholders (board, investors, employees). Authenticity enables trust during periods of change. Strategic Planning – Frame initiatives as a portfolio of bets with clear probability assessments. Balance growth, profitability, and customer satisfaction rather than optimizing for one. Leadership Hiring Process: The CEO interviews top 2-3 levels even without hiring authority Diverse interviewer panels with "bar raisers" Business problem-solving presentations in the final rounds Multiple leadership team interactions before the final decision Life Lessons: Patience in Career Progression – Sometimes the right opportunity requires waiting. Sukhinder was frustrated during 18 months of searching but found the perfect fit. Preparation Separates Candidates – The depth of strategic thinking demonstrated in final presentations often determines CEO selections. Culture Survives Through Consistency – Not avoiding change, but maintaining consistent values and communication approach through inevitable changes. Leadership Requires Tough Decisions – Laying off 900 people six weeks into the role, but doing it transparently and based on clear data/analysis. Value Creation Through Alignment – Finding roles where your strengths are valued and values align creates exponentially better outcomes than pure skill matching. Systems Thinking Builds Trust – Sharing appropriate "behind the scenes" context helps teams understand difficult decisions and builds long-term credibility. Early Career Focus – "Do great work for great people." Find talented leaders to apprentice under and work exceptionally hard to maximize learning. Authenticity Enables Performance – Being genuine about challenges and changes builds stronger relationships than trying to maintain artificial stability. Strategic Communication – Frame personal asks in terms of organizational benefits. Make it about solving their problems, not your desires. The Xero Transformation: Financial Performance: $2.1B revenue, 21% YoY growth while maintaining profitability Cultural Approach: "High purpose, high performance, high people" - no choosing between them Strategic Moves: Pricing/packaging optimization, sales motion transformation, customer experience reimagining (new dashboard with 3000+ customer inputs) Leadership Philosophy: Provide a "systems view" to employees, share investor-level insights appropriately, and maintain authenticity during difficult decisions
