Today on Uncommon Sense, we're going even deeper into the assassination of Charlie Kirk at Utah Valley University, and the more we uncover, the stranger it all looks. This wasn't just a tragedy; it was a deliberate political hit, and the inconsistencies surrounding it can't be ignored. From the bizarre behavior of the FBI to the unanswered questions about who ordered the attack, the pieces simply don't add up.If they'll take out someone as kind, respectful, and reasonable as Charlie Kirk, it means no Conservative is safe from being targeted. We must demand full accountability, real transparency, and nothing less than actual justice. Because the truth is, this was never just about Charlie, it was about silencing an entire movement. Not happening.

Events aren't just about logistics anymore. They're about results. And while event planners know how to deliver flawless execution, companies now need marketers who understand pipeline, customer journeys, and human connection.But too many organizations still treat events as one-off experiences instead of demand engines. That gap costs opportunities, slows deals, and misses the chance to build loyalty.So in this episode, Ghazwan Almoazen (Director, Global Experiential Marketing Demand & Communications at Docusign) shares how he blends digital marketing, demand gen, and experiential strategy to design events that accelerate deals, reduce churn, and keep attendees coming back.Takeaways:✅ Why every event pro needs to think like a marketer, not just a planner✅ How attendee needs—learning, networking, and entertainment—shape engagement and retention✅ Where data and content intersect to prove pipeline impact and secure buy-inTune in to learn how to make your events more than experiences. Make them growth engines.---------------------------------Connect with Ghazwan AlmoazenLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ghazwanalmoazen/Connect with Matt KleinrockLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/matt-kleinrock-9613b22b/Company: https://rockwayexhibits.com/

Hannah Hegeman is the Vice President of Event Strategy and Development for Do Good Events "a woman-owned, award-winning Event Planning company headquartered in Minneapolis. We love being a part of bringing a lot of good into the world through events; after all, that was the inspiration for our name!" Hannah joins host Steve Boland to talk about events to support nonprofit missions and fundraising in 2025 and beyond. She discusses important considerations such as beginning with one clear goal - such as fundraising, awareness, or stewardship; to focus on quality over quantity - the right people in the room matter more than packed attendance; the place for breakfast/lunch events in 2025 and beyond that are often underutilized, less expensive, and have less competition. Hannah urges organizations to consider a 3-5 years minimum commitment to starting a new fundraising event - it takes time to build momentum. So much more in the episode!

On this episode of The Free Outside Podcast, I'm joined by White Mountains legend and community builder Andrew Drummond to dive deep into the Direttissima—an FKT linking all 48 of New Hampshire's 4,000-foot peaks in one unsupported push. Think Nolan's 14 but with more rocks, more bushwhacks, and significantly more emotional damage.We cover Andrew's recent sub-5-day effort, the strategic "feathering" of effort in multi-day sufferfests, and why hiking in the Whites feels like the trail is actively trying to kill you. We also talk about the evolution of FKTs, the importance of local knowledge, and why the Beast Coast terrain is no joke.Andrew reflects on building a community through Ski the Whites and Run the Whites, putting on grassroots events, and embracing failure as a necessary—and often hilarious—step in the process.Whether you're an FKT nerd, an East Coast trail masochist, or just want a glimpse into what makes the White Mountains so special (and spicy), this one's for you.Presented by:

Episode Summary:This time on the Event Tech Podcast, Brandt and Will welcome industry veteran Matthew Byrne to unpack the pains and progress of event content management. Byrne introduces ShowSync, a new solution designed to streamline the collection, synchronization, and distribution of event content- eliminating versioning headaches, USB thumbdrive chaos, and other PPT nightmares.

Like as fast as the 10 gigabit connection can make that happen." - Matthew Byrne"We always say that a live event is a content machine. If we can cut down the expense and time to be able to leverage that value out, I think that that solves a lot of problems." - Matthew Byrne"It's always nice when someone's able to go, 'how about we put it all together into one thing and make it go?' It's wonderful." - Brandt KruegerLearn more about ShowSync at https://byrneproductionservices.com/showsync/

Episode Summary:This episode of the Event Tech Podcast explores the real-world performance of OpenAI's Operator, the agentic AI tool that promises to automate browser tasks on your behalf. Will shares his hands-on experience running Operator through its paces—from sending personalized Twitch messages to attempting LinkedIn research and even trying to buy festival tickets. Brandt and Will dissect what works, what doesn't, and why Operator currently feels less like a job-stealing super-agent and more like a well-meaning, but exasperating, digital intern. The conversation also touches on the future of agentic AI, the importance of user data, and the quirks of modern AI assistants.Discussions Include:What “agentic AI” actually means and how Operator fits the billReal-world Operator use cases: Twitch messaging, LinkedIn research, and online purchasesThe current limitations, quirks, and slowdowns of agentic AI toolsBroader implications for the future of work and the data arms race among tech giantsQuotable Quotes (Should you choose to share):"Once again, Will's taking the hit so that we don't have to, right? He's letting us know that it's not there yet." - Brandt Krueger"I think we're potentially in this world where I do think agents are starting to do things that we never would have comprehended." - Will Curran"It's like a really, really dumb intern. You show someone a task once and at least they get it, right? But this thing constantly forgets." - Will Curran"The tasks that you've given it are very close to the examples we gave when we first started talking about operator and agentic AI. It doesn't sound like it can do that yet." - Brandt Krueger

Sometimes a joke turns into a new life.Trish Jasinski had built a fulfilling, decades-long career in corporate marketing—and she really loved it. But during the pandemic, while working remotely from a very tiny Paris apartment, she started joking with friends that châteaux in the countryside were cheaper than her shoebox of a flat.Just for fun—and with zero plans to actually buy—she went château shopping.And then it happened. She stepped into Château de Gère, a 14th-century stone fortress tucked into the Vallée d'Ossau, and something inside her said, “This is it.”So she did the unthinkable: she bought it. With no plan. Just heart.Now, Trish lives in a quiet French village where sheep outnumber people, and she's turned the château into a beautiful retreat and event space. She's taken everything she learned from her corporate years and poured it into this new life—this wild, magical, entirely unexpected next chapter.In this episode, we talk about:Following a totally unserious whim that changed everythingWhy “no plan” doesn't mean “no purpose”Using your past experience in completely new waysListening to your intuition (even when it makes zero sense)Creating a life that's slower, sweeter, and more youConnect with TrishBook a stay at Château de Gère: https://chateaudegere.com/Follow on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/chateaudegere/  Thanks for listening to The Career Flipper!If you enjoyed this episode, let's spread the word!

Welcome back to Creator Science! In this special “Offline Recap” episode, host Jay Clouse takes us behind the scenes of The Lab's very first in-person event—now officially dubbed “Lab Offline.” After years of thriving as an online community, this was a bold experiment to bring members together face-to-face in Boise, Idaho.
