EP #339 - Awakening The Music Within - An interview with International Latin / Jazz Musician, Freddie Ravel I've been having a great pre-show chat with today's guest, and I'm thrilled to welcome him to Empowering Chats. He's a world-renowned musician and transformational educator — Freddie Ravel. I'm especially excited because Freddie will be performing in my hometown, Ventura, California, on November 8 for a special concert of his incredible music. Freddie's sound is a jazz-Latin fusion that gets your body in sync with rhythm and frequency — and that's exactly what we're diving into today: the power of music, especially Freddie's. As Freddie puts it, “Performance is a 2-way street — there's a transmitter and a receiver. I start each show ready to give energy, but also to receive it. That feedback loop is love and light. Music is at its best when it's shared.” He also reminds us that one of the first things we learned as kids was the alphabet — through song. Music helps us remember, connect, and grow. In our chat, we touched on music theory and the power of melody, harmony, and rhythm — all of which Freddie will bring to life on November 8. He'll be performing at the Ventura Center for Spiritual Living, and if you're in Ventura County be sure to grab your tickets soon — this show is expected to sell out!

In der 50. Folge von Informatik für die moderne Hausfrau spanne ich mit meiner Gästin Lisa Ihde einen Bogen zur allerersten Folge und stelle ihr die Frage: Was ist eigentlich Informatik? Und wie unterscheidet sie sich von anderen Begriffen wie IT und Tech? Lisa, die sich - Spoiler - eher in der IT als in der Informatik verortet, nimmt uns mit auf einen Streifzug durch ihr Leben, das ganz im Zeichen der IT steht: Sie erzählt vom Weg des wissbegierigen Arbeiterkindes, das sich selbst das Entwickeln von Webseiten beigebracht hat, über ihr praxisorientiertes Studium am Hasso Plattner Institut bis hin zu ihrem heutigen Job bei Google. Dabei verrät sie nicht nur, welche Hürden sie bewältigen musste, sondern auch, was sich hinter der Berufsbezeichnung "Technical Account Manager*in" verbirgt.  Obwohl - oder gerade weil - Lisa ihr Hobby, das Programmieren, nicht zum Beruf gemacht hat, widmet sie sich in ihrer Freizeit zahlreichen kreativen Projekten. Dazu zählen Hackathons, also kreative Tüftelwettbewerbe, bei denen sie unter anderem mit offenen Kulturdaten gearbeitet und so einen Beitrag zur Wissensvermittlung im Museum geleistet hat. Von diesen berichtet sie uns ebenso wie von ihrem ersten Making-Projekt, bei dem sie ein IoT-Gerät, die sogenannte Lovebox, gebaut hat. Lisa verrät uns außerdem, wie sie es geschafft hat, mit gerade einmal 29 Jahren bereits 4 Bücher veröffentlicht zu haben, und erklärt uns, welche Entscheidungen sie in diesem Zusammenhang zu treffen hatte. Anlässlich ihres neusten Buchs "Per Anhalter durch die IT-Branche" sprechen wir zudem über Berufsbilder in der Tech-Branche, über IT-Mythen, und das 'Frauenproblem' - bei dem Frauen genaugenommen das geringste Problem sind.  Weil es sich um die 50. Folge handelt, könnt ihr übrigens wieder etwas gewinnen: Eine Podcast-Tasse und Lisas Buch "Per Anhalter durch die IT-Branche". Für weitere Infos hört euch einfach die Folge an!

Innovation plays a role in the beauty and fashion industry as it does in any line of business. New products, new techniques, and new markets animate the industry, and punctuate its history. In her latest book project, Dr. Denise Sutton, associate professor at the City University of New York, examines several case studies in fashion and beauty innovation. From ready-to-wear apparel for pregnant women, to beauty products for people of color, to Kevlar attire in hazardous workplaces, each case demonstrates the centrality of innovation to the business of fashion. In support of her work Dr. Sutton received funding from the Center for the History of Business, Technology, and Society at the Hagley Museum and Library.

This is our first episode back after a bit of a hiatus, and we are back with a conversation focused on AI safety, digital governance, and all of the challenges with regulating the internet. I'm joined by Professor Taylor Owen. He's an expert in these issues. He's been writing about these issues for many years. I actually had him on this podcast more than five years ago, and he's been a huge part of getting us in Canada to where we are today. And it's up to this government to get us across the finish line, and that's what we talk about. Taylor, thanks for joining me. Thanks for having me. So this feels like deja vu all over again, because I was going back before you arrived this morning and you joined this podcast in April of 2020 to talk about platform governance.Taylor Owen00:43-00:44It's a different world.Taylor00:45-00:45In some ways.Nate Erskine-Smith00:45-01:14Yeah. Well, yeah, a different world for sure in many ways, but also the same challenges in some ways too. Additional challenges, of course. But I feel like in some ways we've come a long way because there's been lots of consultation. There have been some legislative attempts at least, but also we haven't really accomplished the thing. So let's talk about set the stage. Some of the same challenges from five years ago, but some new challenges. What are the challenges? What are the problems we're trying to solve? Yeah, I mean, many of them are the same, right?Taylor Owen01:14-03:06I mean, this is part of the technology moves fast. But when you look at the range of things citizens are concerned about when they and their children and their friends and their families use these sets of digital technologies that shape so much of our lives, many things are the same. So they're worried about safety. They're worried about algorithmic content and how that's feeding into what they believe and what they think. They're worried about polarization. We're worried about the integrity of our democracy and our elections. We're worried about sort of some of the more acute harms of like real risks to safety, right? Like children taking their own lives and violence erupting, political violence emerging. Like these things have always been present as a part of our digital lives. And that's what we were concerned about five years ago, right? When we talked about those harms, that was roughly the list. Now, the technologies we were talking about at the time were largely social media platforms, right? So that was the main way five years ago that we shared, consumed information in our digital politics and our digital public lives. And that is what's changing slightly. Now, those are still prominent, right? We're still on TikTok and Instagram and Facebook to a certain degree. But we do now have a new layer of AI and particularly chatbots. And I think a big question we face in this conversation in this, like, how do we develop policies that maximize the benefits of digital technologies and minimize the harms, which is all this is trying to do. Do we need new tools for AI or some of the things we worked on for so many years to get right, the still the right tools for this new set of technologies with chatbots and various consumer facing AI interfaces?Nate Erskine-Smith03:07-03:55My line in politics has always been, especially around privacy protections, that we are increasingly living our lives online. And especially, you know, my kids are growing up online and our laws need to reflect that reality. All of the challenges you've articulated to varying degrees exist in offline spaces, but can be incredibly hard. The rules we have can be incredibly hard to enforce at a minimum in the online space. And then some rules are not entirely fit for purpose and they need to be updated in the online space. It's interesting. I was reading a recent op-ed of yours, but also some of the research you've done. This really stood out. So you've got the Hogue Commission that says disinformation is the single biggest threat to our democracy. That's worth pausing on.Taylor Owen03:55-04:31Yeah, exactly. Like the commission that spent a year at the request of all political parties in parliament, at the urging of the opposition party, so it spent a year looking at a wide range of threats to our democratic systems that everybody was concerned about originating in foreign countries. And the conclusion of that was that the single biggest threat to our democracy is the way information flows through our society and how we're not governing it. Like that is a remarkable statement and it kind of came and went. And I don't know why we moved off from that so fast.Nate Erskine-Smith04:31-05:17Well, and there's a lot to pull apart there because you've got purposeful, intentional, bad actors, foreign influence operations. But you also have a really core challenge of just the reliability and credibility of the information ecosystem. So you have Facebook, Instagram through Meta block news in Canada. And your research, this was the stat that stood out. Don't want to put you in and say like, what do we do? Okay. So there's, you say 11 million views of news have been lost as a consequence of that blocking. Okay. That's one piece of information people should know. Yeah. But at the same time.Taylor Owen05:17-05:17A day. Yeah.Nate Erskine-Smith05:18-05:18So right.Taylor Owen05:18-05:2711 million views a day. And we should sometimes we go through these things really fast. It's huge. Again, Facebook decides to block news. 40 million people in Canada. Yeah.Taylor05:27-05:29So 11 million times a Canadian.Taylor Owen05:29-05:45And what that means is 11 million times a Canadian would open one of their news feeds and see Canadian journalism is taken out of the ecosystem. And it was replaced by something. People aren't using these tools less. So that journalism was replaced by something else.Taylor05:45-05:45Okay.Taylor Owen05:45-05:46So that's just it.Nate Erskine-Smith05:46-06:04So on the one side, we've got 11 million views a day lost. Yeah. And on the other side, Canadians, the majority of Canadians get their news from social media. But when the Canadians who get their news from social media are asked where they get it from, they still say Instagram and Facebook. But there's no news there. Right.Taylor Owen06:04-06:04They say they get.Nate Erskine-Smith06:04-06:05It doesn't make any sense.Taylor Owen06:06-06:23It doesn't and it does. It's terrible. They ask Canadians, like, where do you get people who use social media to get their news? Where do they get their news? and they still say social media, even though it's not there. Journalism isn't there. Journalism isn't there. And I think one of the explanations— Traditional journalism. There is—Taylor06:23-06:23There is—Taylor Owen06:23-06:47Well, this is what I was going to get at, right? Like, there is—one, I think, conclusion is that people don't equate journalism with news about the world. There's not a one-to-one relationship there. Like, journalism is one provider of news, but so are influencers, so are podcasts, people listening to this. Like this would be labeled probably news in people's.Nate Erskine-Smith06:47-06:48Can't trust the thing we say.Taylor Owen06:48-07:05Right. And like, and neither of us are journalists, right? But we are providing information about the world. And if it shows up in people's feeds, as I'm sure it will, like that probably gets labeled in people's minds as news, right? As opposed to pure entertainment, as entertaining as you are.Nate Erskine-Smith07:05-07:06It's public affairs content.Taylor Owen07:06-07:39Exactly. So that's one thing that's happening. The other is that there's a generation of creators that are stepping into this ecosystem to both fill that void and that can use these tools much more effectively. So in the last election, we found that of all the information consumed about the election, 50% of it was created by creators. 50% of the engagement on the election was from creators. Guess what it was for journalists, for journalism? Like 5%. Well, you're more pessimistic though. I shouldn't have led with the question. 20%.Taylor07:39-07:39Okay.Taylor Owen07:39-07:56So all of journalism combined in the entire country, 20 percent of engagement, influencers, 50 percent in the last election. So like we've shifted, at least on social, the actors and people and institutions that are fostering our public.Nate Erskine-Smith07:56-08:09Is there a middle ground here where you take some people that play an influencer type role but also would consider themselves citizen journalists in a way? How do you – It's a super interesting question, right?Taylor Owen08:09-08:31Like who – when are these people doing journalism? When are they doing acts of journalism? Like someone can be – do journalism and 90% of the time do something else, right? And then like maybe they reveal something or they tell an interesting story that resonates with people or they interview somebody and it's revelatory and it's a journalistic act, right?Taylor08:31-08:34Like this is kind of a journalistic act we're playing here.Taylor Owen08:35-08:49So I don't think – I think these lines are gray. but I mean there's some other underlying things here which like it matters if I think if journalistic institutions go away entirely right like that's probably not a good thing yeah I mean that's whyNate Erskine-Smith08:49-09:30I say it's terrifying is there's a there's a lot of good in the in the digital space that is trying to be there's creative destruction there's a lot of work to provide people a direct sense of news that isn't that filter that people may mistrust in traditional media. Having said that, so many resources and there's so much history to these institutions and there's a real ethics to journalism and journalists take their craft seriously in terms of the pursuit of truth. Absolutely. And losing that access, losing the accessibility to that is devastating for democracy. I think so.Taylor Owen09:30-09:49And I think the bigger frame of that for me is a democracy needs signals of – we need – as citizens in a democracy, we need signals of reliability. Like we need to know broadly, and we're not always going to agree on it, but like what kind of information we can trust and how we evaluate whether we trust it.Nate Erskine-Smith09:49-10:13And that's what – that is really going away. Pause for a sec. So you could imagine signals of reliability is a good phrase. what does it mean for a legislator when it comes to putting a rule in place? Because you could imagine, you could have a Blade Runner kind of rule that says you've got to distinguish between something that is human generatedTaylor10:13-10:14and something that is machine generated.Nate Erskine-Smith10:15-10:26That seems straightforward enough. It's a lot harder if you're trying to distinguish between Taylor, what you're saying is credible, and Nate, what you're saying is not credible,Taylor10:27-10:27which is probably true.Nate Erskine-Smith10:28-10:33But how do you have a signal of reliability in a different kind of content?Taylor Owen10:34-13:12I mean, we're getting into like a journalistic journalism policy here to a certain degree, right? And it's a wicked problem because the primary role of journalism is to hold you personally to account. And you setting rules for what they can and can't do and how they can and can't behave touches on some real like third rails here, right? It's fraught. However, I don't think it should ever be about policy determining what can and can't be said or what is and isn't journalism. The real problem is the distribution mechanism and the incentives within it. So a great example and a horrible example happened last week, right? So Charlie Kirk gets assassinated. I don't know if you opened a feed in the few days after that, but it was a horrendous place, right? Social media was an awful, awful, awful place because what you saw in that feed was the clearest demonstration I've ever seen in a decade of looking at this of how those algorithmic feeds have become radicalized. Like all you saw on every platform was the worst possible representations of every view. Right. Right. It was truly shocking and horrendous. Like people defending the murder and people calling for the murder of leftists and like on both sides. Right. people blaming Israel, people, whatever. Right. And that isn't a function of like- Aaron Charlie Kirk to Jesus. Sure. Like- It was bonkers all the way around. Totally bonkers, right? And that is a function of how those ecosystems are designed and the incentives within them. It's not a function of like there was journalism being produced about that. Like New York Times, citizens were doing good content about what was happening. It was like a moment of uncertainty and journalism was doing or playing a role, but it wasn't And so I think with all of these questions, including the online harms ones, and I think how we step into an AI governance conversation, the focus always has to be on those systems. I'm like, what is who and what and what are the incentives and the technical decisions being made that determine what we experience when we open these products? These are commercial products that we're choosing to consume. And when we open them, a whole host of business and design and technical decisions and human decisions shape the effect it has on us as people, the effect it has on our democracy, the vulnerabilities that exist in our democracy, the way foreign actors or hostile actors can take advantage of them, right? Like all of that stuff we've been talking about, the role reliability of information plays, like these algorithms could be tweaked for reliable versus unreliable content, right? Over time.Taylor13:12-13:15That's not a – instead of reactionary –Taylor Owen13:15-13:42Or like what's most – it gets most engagement or what makes you feel the most angry, which is largely what's driving X, for example, right now, right? You can torque all those things. Now, I don't think we want government telling companies how they have to torque it. But we can slightly tweak the incentives to get better content, more reliable content, less polarizing content, less hateful content, less harmful content, right? Those dials can be incentivized to be turned. And that's where the policy space should play, I think.Nate Erskine-Smith13:43-14:12And your focus on systems and assessing risks with systems. I think that's the right place to play. I mean, we've seen legislative efforts. You've got the three pieces in Canada. You've got online harms. You've got the privacy and very kind of vague initial foray into AI regs, which we can get to. And then a cybersecurity piece. And all of those ultimately died on the order paper. Yeah. We also had the journalistic protection policies, right, that the previous government did.Taylor Owen14:12-14:23I mean – Yeah, yeah, yeah. We can debate their merits. Yeah. But there was considerable effort put into backstopping the institutions of journalism by the – Well, they're twofold, right?Nate Erskine-Smith14:23-14:33There's the tax credit piece, sort of financial support. And then there was the Online News Act. Right. Which was trying to pull some dollars out of the platforms to pay for the news as well. Exactly.Taylor14:33-14:35So the sort of supply and demand side thing, right?Nate Erskine-Smith14:35-14:38There's the digital service tax, which is no longer a thing.Taylor Owen14:40-14:52Although it still is a piece of past legislation. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It still is a thing. Yeah, yeah. Until you guys decide whether to negate the thing you did last year or not, right? Yeah.Nate Erskine-Smith14:52-14:55I don't take full responsibility for that one.Taylor Owen14:55-14:56No, you shouldn't.Nate Erskine-Smith14:58-16:03But other countries have seen more success. Yeah. And so you've got in the UK, in Australia, the EU really has led the way. 2018, the EU passes GDPR, which is a privacy set of rules, which we are still behind seven years later. But you've got in 2022, 2023, you've got Digital Services Act that passes. You've got Digital Markets Act. And as I understand it, and we've had, you know, we've both been involved in international work on this. And we've heard from folks like Francis Hogan and others about the need for risk-based assessments. And you're well down the rabbit hole on this. But isn't it at a high level? You deploy a technology. You've got to identify material risks. You then have to take reasonable measures to mitigate those risks. That's effectively the duty of care built in. And then ideally, you've got the ability for third parties, either civil society or some public office that has the ability to audit whether you have adequately identified and disclosed material risks and whether you have taken reasonable steps to mitigate.Taylor Owen16:04-16:05That's like how I have it in my head.Nate Erskine-Smith16:05-16:06I mean, that's it.Taylor Owen16:08-16:14Write it down. Fill in the legislation. Well, I mean, that process happened. I know. That's right. I know.Nate Erskine-Smith16:14-16:25Exactly. Which people, I want to get to that because C63 gets us a large part of the way there. I think so. And yet has been sort of like cast aside.Taylor Owen16:25-17:39Exactly. Let's touch on that. But I do think what you described as the online harms piece of this governance agenda. When you look at what the EU has done, they have put in place the various building blocks for what a broad digital governance agenda might look like. Because the reality of this space, which we talked about last time, and it's the thing that's infuriating about digital policy, is that you can't do one thing. There's no – digital economy and our digital lives are so vast and the incentives and the effect they have on society is so broad that there's no one solution. So anyone who tells you fix privacy policy and you'll fix all the digital problems we just talked about are full of it. Anyone who says competition policy, like break up the companies, will solve all of these problems. is wrong, right? Anyone who says online harms policy, which we'll talk about, fixes everything is wrong. You have to do all of them. And Europe has, right? They updated their privacy policy. They've been to build a big online harms agenda. They updated their competition regime. And they're also doing some AI policy too, right? So like you need comprehensive approaches, which is not an easy thing to do, right? It means doing three big things all over.Nate Erskine-Smith17:39-17:41Especially minority parlance, short periods of time, legislatively.Taylor Owen17:41-18:20Different countries have taken different pieces of it. Now, on the online harms piece, which is what the previous government took really seriously, and I think it's worth putting a point on that, right, that when we talked last was the beginning of this process. After we spoke, there was a national expert panel. There were 20 consultations. There were four citizens' assemblies. There was a national commission, right? Like a lot of work went into looking at what every other country had done because this is a really wicked, difficult problem and trying to learn from what Europe, Australia and the UK had all done. And we kind of taking the benefit of being late, right? So they were all ahead of us.Taylor18:21-18:25People you work with on that grant committee. We're all quick and do our own consultations.Taylor Owen18:26-19:40Exactly. And like the model that was developed out of that, I think, was the best model of any of those countries. And it's now seen as internationally, interestingly, as the new sort of milestone that everybody else is building on, right? And what it does is it says if you're going to launch a digital product, right, like a consumer-facing product in Canada, you need to assess risk. And you need to assess risk on these broad categories of harms that we have decided as legislators we care about or you've decided as legislators you cared about, right? Child safety, child sexual abuse material, fomenting violence and extremist content, right? Like things that are like broad categories that we've said are we think are harmful to our democracy. All you have to do as a company is a broad assessment of what could go wrong with your product. If you find something could go wrong, so let's say, for example, let's use a tangible example. Let's say you are a social media platform and you are launching a product that's going to be used by kids and it allows adults to contact kids without parental consent or without kids opting into being a friend. What could go wrong with that?Nate Erskine-Smith19:40-19:40Yeah.Taylor19:40-19:43Like what could go wrong? Yeah, a lot could go wrong.Taylor Owen19:43-20:27And maybe strange men will approach teenage girls. Maybe, right? Like if you do a risk assessment, that is something you might find. You would then be obligated to mitigate that risk and show how you've mitigated it, right? Like you put in a policy in place to show how you're mitigating it. And then you have to share data about how these tools are used so that we can monitor, publics and researchers can monitor whether that mitigation strategy worked. That's it. In that case, that feature was launched by Instagram in Canada without any risk assessment, without any safety evaluation. And we know there was like a widespread problem of teenage girls being harassed by strange older men.Taylor20:28-20:29Incredibly creepy.Taylor Owen20:29-20:37A very easy, but not like a super illegal thing, not something that would be caught by the criminal code, but a harm we can all admit is a problem.Taylor20:37-20:41And this kind of mechanism would have just filtered out.Taylor Owen20:41-20:51Default settings, right? And doing thinking a bit before you launch a product in a country about what kind of broad risks might emerge when it's launched and being held accountable to do it for doing that.Nate Erskine-Smith20:52-21:05Yeah, I quite like the we I mean, maybe you've got a better read of this, but in the UK, California has pursued this. I was looking at recently, Elizabeth Denham is now the Jersey Information Commissioner or something like that.Taylor Owen21:05-21:06I know it's just yeah.Nate Erskine-Smith21:07-21:57I don't random. I don't know. But she is a Canadian, for those who don't know Elizabeth Denham. And she was the information commissioner in the UK. And she oversaw the implementation of the first age-appropriate design code. That always struck me as an incredibly useful approach. In that even outside of social media platforms, even outside of AI, take a product like Roblox, where tons of kids use it. And just forcing companies to ensure that the default settings are prioritizing child safety so that you don't put the onus on parents and kids to figure out each of these different games and platforms. In a previous world of consumer protection, offline, it would have been de facto. Of course we've prioritized consumer safety first and foremost. But in the online world, it's like an afterthought.Taylor Owen21:58-24:25Well, when you say consumer safety, it's worth like referring back to what we mean. Like a duty of care can seem like an obscure concept. But your lawyer is a real thing, right? Like you walk into a store. I walk into your office. I have an expectation that the bookshelves aren't going to fall off the wall and kill me, right? And you have to bolt them into the wall because of that, right? Like that is a duty of care that you have for me when I walk into your public space or private space. Like that's all we're talking about here. And the age-appropriate design code, yes, like sort of developed, implemented by a Canadian in the UK. And what it says, it also was embedded in the Online Harms Act, right? If we'd passed that last year, we would be implementing an age-appropriate design code as we speak, right? What that would say is any product that is likely to be used by a kid needs to do a set of additional things, not just these risk assessments, right? But we think like kids don't have the same rights as adults. We have different duties to protect kids as adults, right? So maybe they should do an extra set of things for their digital products. And it includes things like no behavioral targeting, no advertising, no data collection, no sexual adult content, right? Like kind of things that like – Seem obvious. And if you're now a child in the UK and you open – you go on a digital product, you are safer because you have an age-appropriate design code governing your experience online. Canadian kids don't have that because that bill didn't pass, right? So like there's consequences to this stuff. and I get really frustrated now when I see the conversation sort of pivoting to AI for example right like all we're supposed to care about is AI adoption and all the amazing things AI is going to do to transform our world which are probably real right like not discounting its power and just move on from all of these both problems and solutions that have been developed to a set of challenges that both still exist on social platforms like they haven't gone away people are still using these tools and the harms still exist and probably are applicable to this next set of technologies as well. So this moving on from what we've learned and the work that's been done is just to the people working in this space and like the wide stakeholders in this country who care about this stuff and working on it. It just, it feels like you say deja vu at the beginning and it is deja vu, but it's kind of worse, right? Cause it's like deja vu and then ignoring theTaylor24:25-24:29five years of work. Yeah, deja vu if we were doing it again. Right. We're not even, we're not evenTaylor Owen24:29-24:41Well, yeah. I mean, hopefully I actually am not, I'm actually optimistic, I would say that we will, because I actually think of if for a few reasons, like one, citizens want it, right? Like.Nate Erskine-Smith24:41-24:57Yeah, I was surprised on the, so you mentioned there that the rules that we design, the risk assessment framework really applied to social media could equally be applied to deliver AI safety and it could be applied to new technology in a useful way.Taylor Owen24:58-24:58Some elements of it. Exactly.Nate Erskine-Smith24:58-25:25I think AI safety is a broad bucket of things. So let's get to that a little bit because I want to pull the pieces together. So I had a constituent come in the office and he is really like super mad. He's super mad. Why is he mad? Does that happen very often? Do people be mad when they walk into this office? Not as often as you think, to be honest. Not as often as you think. And he's mad because he believes Mark Carney ripped him off.Taylor Owen25:25-25:25Okay.Nate Erskine-Smith25:25-26:36Okay. Yep. He believes Mark Carney ripped him off, not with broken promise in politics, not because he said one thing and is delivering something else, nothing to do with politics. He saw a video online, Mark Carney told him to invest money. He invested money and he's out the 200 bucks or whatever it was. And I was like, how could you possibly have lost money in this way? This is like, this was obviously a scam. Like what, how could you have been deceived? But then I go and I watched the video And it is, okay, I'm not gonna send the 200 bucks and I've grown up with the internet, but I can see how- Absolutely. In the same way, phone scams and Nigerian princes and all of that have their own success rate. I mean, this was a very believable video that was obviously AI generated. So we are going to see rampant fraud. If we aren't already, we are going to see many challenges with respect to AI safety. What over and above the risk assessment piece, what do we do to address these challenges?Taylor Owen26:37-27:04So that is a huge problem, right? Like the AI fraud, AI video fraud is a huge challenge. In the election, when we were monitoring the last election, by far the biggest problem or vulnerability of the election was a AI generated video campaign. that every day would take videos of Polyevs and Carney's speeches from the day before and generate, like morph them into conversations about investment strategies.Taylor27:05-27:07And it was driving people to a crypto scam.Taylor Owen27:08-27:11But it was torquing the political discourse.Taylor27:11-27:11That's what it must have been.Taylor Owen27:12-27:33I mean, there's other cases of this, but that's probably, and it was running rampant on particularly meta platforms. They were flagged. They did nothing about it. There were thousands of these videos circulating throughout the entire election, right? And it's not like the end of the world, right? Like nobody – but it torqued our political debate. It ripped off some people. And these kinds of scams are –Taylor27:33-27:38It's clearly illegal. It's clearly illegal. It probably breaks his election law too, misrepresenting a political figure, right?Taylor Owen27:38-27:54So I think there's probably an Elections Canada response to this that's needed. And it's fraud. And it's fraud, absolutely. So what do you do about that, right? And the head of the Canadian Banking Association said there's like billions of dollars in AI-based fraud in the Canadian economy right now. Right? So it's a big problem.Taylor27:54-27:55Yeah.Taylor Owen27:55-28:46I actually think there's like a very tangible policy solution. You put these consumer-facing AI products into the Online Harms Act framework, right? And then you add fraud and AI scams as a category of harm. And all of a sudden, if you're meta and you are operating in Canada during an election, you'd have to do a risk assessment on like AI fraud potential of your product. Responsibility for your platform. And then it starts to circulate. We would see it. They'd be called out on it. They'd have to take it down. And like that's that, right? Like so that we have mechanisms for dealing with this. But it does mean evolving what we worked on over the past five years, these like only harms risk assessment models and bringing in some of the consumer facing AI, both products and related harms into the framework.Nate Erskine-Smith28:47-30:18To put it a different way, I mean, so this is years ago now that we had this, you know, grand committee in the UK holding Facebook and others accountable. This really was creating the wake of the Cambridge Analytica scandal. And the platforms at the time were really holding firm to this idea of Section 230 and avoiding host liability and saying, oh, we couldn't possibly be responsible for everything on our platform. And there was one problem with that argument, which is they completely acknowledged the need for them to take action when it came to child pornography. And so they said, yeah, well, you know, no liability for us. But of course, there can be liability on this one specific piece of content and we'll take action on this one specific piece of content. And it always struck me from there on out. I mean, there's no real intellectual consistency here. It's more just what should be in that category of things that they should take responsibility for. And obviously harmful content like that should be – that's an obvious first step but obvious for everyone. But there are other categories. Fraud is another one. When they're making so much money, when they are investing so much money in AI, when they're ignoring privacy protections and everything else throughout the years, I mean, we can't leave it up to them. And setting a clear set of rules to say this is what you're responsible for and expanding that responsibility seems to make a good amount of sense.Taylor Owen30:18-30:28It does, although I think those responsibilities need to be different for different kinds of harms. Because there are different speech implications and apocratic implications of sort of absolute solutions to different kinds of content.Taylor30:28-30:30So like child pornography is a great example.Taylor Owen30:30-31:44In the Online Harms Bill Act, for almost every type of content, it was that risk assessment model. But there was a carve out for child sexual abuse material. So including child pornography. And for intimate images and videos shared without consent. It said the platforms actually have a different obligation, and that's to take it down within 24 hours. And the reason you can do it with those two kinds of content is because if we, one, the AI is actually pretty good at spotting it. It might surprise you, but there's a lot of naked images on the internet that we can train AI with. So we're actually pretty good at using AI to pull this stuff down. But the bigger one is that we are, I think, as a society, it's okay to be wrong in the gray area of that speech, right? Like if something is like debatable, whether it's child pornography, I'm actually okay with us suppressing the speech of the person who sits in that gray area. Whereas for something like hate speech, it's a really different story, right? Like we do not want to suppress and over index for that gray area on hate speech because that's going to capture a lot of reasonable debate that we probably want.Nate Erskine-Smith31:44-31:55Yeah, I think soliciting investment via fraud probably falls more in line with the child pornography category where it's, you know, very obviously illegal.Taylor Owen31:55-32:02And that mechanism is like a takedown mechanism, right? Like if we see fraud, if we know it's fraud, then you take it down, right? Some of these other things we have to go with.Nate Erskine-Smith32:02-32:24I mean, my last question really is you pull the threads together. You've got these different pieces that were introduced in the past. And you've got a government that lots of similar folks around the table, but a new government and a new prime minister certainly with a vision for getting the most out of AI when it comes to our economy.Taylor32:24-32:25Absolutely.Nate Erskine-Smith32:25-33:04You have, for the first time in this country, an AI minister, a junior minister to industry, but still a specific title portfolio and with his own deputy minister and really wants to be seized with this. And in a way, I think that from every conversation I've had with him that wants to maximize productivity in this country using AI, but is also cognizant of the risks and wants to address AI safety. So where from here? You know, you've talked in the past about sort of a grander sort of tech accountability and sovereignty act. Do we do piecemeal, you know, a privacy bill here and an AI safety bill and an online harms bill and we have disparate pieces? What's the answer here?Taylor Owen33:05-34:14I mean, I don't have the exact answer. But I think there's some like, there's some lessons from the past that we can, this government could take. And one is piecemeal bills that aren't centrally coordinated or have no sort of connectivity between them end up with piecemeal solutions that are imperfect and like would benefit from some cohesiveness between them, right? So when the previous government released ADA, the AI Act, it was like really intention in some real ways with the online harms approach. So two different departments issuing two similar bills on two separate technologies, not really talking to each other as far as I can tell from the outside, right? So like we need a coordinating, coordinated, comprehensive effort to digital governance. Like that's point one and we've never had it in this country. And when I saw the announcement of an AI minister, my mind went first to that he or that office could be that role. Like you could – because AI is – it's cross-cutting, right? Like every department in our federal government touches AI in one way or another. And the governance of AI and the adoption on the other side of AI by society is going to affect every department and every bill we need.Nate Erskine-Smith34:14-34:35So if Evan pulled in the privacy pieces that would help us catch up to GDPR. Which it sounds like they will, right? Some version of C27 will probably come back. If he pulls in the online harms pieces that aren't related to the criminal code and drops those provisions, says, you know, Sean Frazier, you can deal with this if you like. But these are the pieces I'm holding on to.Taylor Owen34:35-34:37With a frame of consumer safety, right?Nate Erskine-Smith34:37-34:37Exactly.Taylor Owen34:38-34:39If he wants...Nate Erskine-Smith34:39-34:54Which is connected to privacy as well, right? Like these are all... So then you have thematically a bill that makes sense. And then you can pull in as well the AI safety piece. And then it becomes a consumer protection bill when it comes to living our lives online. Yeah.Taylor Owen34:54-36:06And I think there's an argument whether that should be one bill or whether it's multiple ones. I actually don't think it... I think there's cases for both, right? There's concern about big omnibus bills that do too many things and too many committees reviewing them and whatever. that's sort of a machinery of government question right but but the principle that these should be tied together in a narrative that the government is explicit about making and communicating to publics right that if if you we know that 85 percent of canadians want ai to be regulated what do they mean what they mean is at the same time as they're being told by our government by companies that they should be using and embracing this powerful technology in their lives they're also seeing some risks. They're seeing risks to their kids. They're being told their jobs might disappear and might take their... Why should I use this thing? When I'm seeing some harms, I don't see you guys doing anything about these harms. And I'm seeing some potential real downside for me personally and my family. So even in the adoption frame, I think thinking about data privacy, safety, consumer safety, I think to me, that's the real frame here. It's like citizen safety, consumer safety using these products. Yeah, politically, I just, I mean, that is what it is. It makes sense to me.Nate Erskine-Smith36:06-36:25Right, I agree. And really lean into child safety at the same time. Because like I've got a nine-year-old and a five-year-old. They are growing up with the internet. And I do not want to have to police every single platform that they use. I do not want to have to log in and go, these are the default settings on the parental controls.Taylor36:25-36:28I want to turn to government and go, do your damn job.Taylor Owen36:28-36:48Or just like make them slightly safer. I know these are going to be imperfect. I have a 12-year-old. He spends a lot of time on YouTube. I know that's going to always be a place with sort of content that I would prefer he doesn't see. But I would just like some basic safety standards on that thing. So he's not seeing the worst of the worst.Nate Erskine-Smith36:48-36:58And we should expect that. Certainly at YouTube with its promotion engine, the recommendation function is not actively promoting terrible content to your 12 year old.Taylor Owen36:59-37:31Yeah. That's like de minimis. Can we just torque this a little bit, right? So like maybe he's not seeing content about horrible content about Charlie Kirk when he's a 12 year old on YouTube, right? Like, can we just do something? And I think that's a reasonable expectation as a citizen. But it requires governance. That will not – and that's – it's worth putting a real emphasis on that is one thing we've learned in this moment of repeated deja vus going back 20 years really since our experience with social media for sure through to now is that these companies don't self-govern.Taylor37:31-37:31Right.Taylor Owen37:32-37:39Like we just – we know that indisputably. So to think that AI is going to be different is delusional. No, it'll be pseudo-profit, not the public interest.Taylor37:39-37:44Of course. Because that's what we are. These are the largest companies in the world. Yeah, exactly. And AI companies are even bigger than the last generation, right?Taylor Owen37:44-38:00We're creating something new with the scale of these companies. And to think that their commercial incentives and their broader long-term goals of around AI are not going to override these safety concerns is just naive in the nth degree.Nate Erskine-Smith38:00-38:38But I think you make the right point, and it's useful to close on this, that these goals of realizing the productivity possibilities and potentials of AI alongside AI safety, these are not mutually exclusive or oppositional goals. that it's you create a sandbox to play in and companies will be more successful. And if you have certainty in regulations, companies will be more successful. And if people feel safe using these tools and having certainly, you know, if I feel safe with my kids learning these tools growing up in their classrooms and everything else, you're going to adoption rates will soar. Absolutely. And then we'll benefit.Taylor Owen38:38-38:43They work in tandem, right? And I think you can't have one without the other fundamentally.Nate Erskine-Smith38:45-38:49Well, I hope I don't invite you back five years from now when we have the same conversation.Taylor Owen38:49-38:58Well, I hope you invite me back in five years, but I hope it's like thinking back on all the legislative successes of the previous five years. I mean, that'll be the moment.Taylor38:58-38:59Sounds good. Thanks, David. Thanks. This is a public episode.

Walking transformed anxiety into vitality for 69-year-old entrepreneur Ande Lyons, who discovered from a book-on-cassette that 35 minutes daily helped manage her symptoms and eventually led to her current six-mile routine despite facing osteoporosis. Ande argues that movement is a privilege rather than a chore, and that community connections matter more than almost anything else for healthy aging, while encouraging people to "take center stage" instead of becoming invisible as they age. Her journey from hiding her age in the startup world to becoming a pro-aging advocate demonstrates how shifting from apathy to action can redefine what thriving looks like in our later decades.

Businesses tell stories about themselves, in their advertising, in their marketing, and in their corporate biographies. Official or authorized histories of corporations form a distinctive thread in the literature in business history. In his latest book project, Dr. Lee McGuigan, assistant professor at the University of North Carolina, is researching the official corporate history as a distinctive form of media and mode of communication. His initial findings suggest that corporations used their official histories for various purposes; to reify their identity, to promote their accomplishments, or to define their internal culture, depending on the intended audience. In support of his work, Dr. McGuigan received funding from the Center for the History of Business, Technology, and Society at the Hagley Museum and Library.

This episode describes the critical importance of building adequate margin into academic schedules. After a week that went "off the rails" due to unexpected emergencies including children's health issues, emergency dental work, and even a mouse invasion, Christine Tulley, President and Executive Writing Coach at Defend, Publish & Lead, discovered that while she thought she had built sufficient 30-minute buffers into her daily schedule, she hadn't accounted for how tightly stacked her days were against each other. When one day explodes due to emergencies, there's insufficient margin in subsequent days to absorb the ripple effects. The episode offers practical strategies for creating true margin in overpacked academic lives, including asking for help, moving non-urgent tasks, shortening meetings, saying no when possible, and building in extra travel time to prevent the stress and errors that come from rushing.

Opinión: ¿Existe realmente una burbuja del podcasting o son varias más pequeñas?

Al otro lado del micrófono

1215. Burbuja del podcasting. Así, con todas sus letras, porque cada cierto tiempo vuelve a salir este debate, y hoy me apetecía sentarme —bueno, más bien ponerme el micro delante— para compartir mi opinión. ¿Estamos en una burbuja? ¿Lo estuvimos? ¿Vivimos varias burbujas pequeñas que han ido explotando? La respuesta, al menos desde mi experiencia como creador, editor, productor y oyente desde hace más de una década, no es sencilla. Yo no creo que haya una sola burbuja del podcasting, sino muchas, que han ido hinchándose y explotando en distintos momentos. Recuerdo la primera con claridad: las redes de podcast. Allá por 2015 o 2016, parecía que si tu podcast no pertenecía a una red, no eras nadie. Tenías que tener tu sellito en la portada, tu pequeño escudo en la esquina que dijera “yo pertenezco a X red”. Pero con el tiempo muchas de esas redes se convirtieron en productoras —como ha pasado con el propio sector— y esa burbuja se desinfló. Después vinieron los podcasts exclusivos de plataformas. Algunas aplicaciones solo te dejaban escuchar ciertos programas dentro de su ecosistema, intentando que los usuarios se quedaran ahí, encerrados. Fue una burbuja muy llamativa, con apuestas fuertes, como la de Spotify con Joe Rogan, pero que no terminó de cuajar, al menos en el panorama hispano. Y eso que hubo varios intentos serios. Algo parecido ocurrió con los podcasts premium: aquellos que eran completamente de pago. Hoy por hoy, hay versiones híbridas que sí funcionan —capítulos para mecenas, adelantos, contenido exclusivo—, pero un podcast 100% premium no se ve casi. ¿Funcionaron? En su momento, sí, pero como burbuja, acabaron pinchando. Otra que me llama especialmente la atención es la burbuja de las grandes tecnológicas. Google, Amazon, Apple, Spotify… todas han hecho su apuesta por el podcasting, pero ninguna ha conseguido imponerse del todo. Sí, Spotify ha crecido, pero no se ha hecho con el mercado como algunos vaticinaban. Y mientras, seguimos escuchando podcast vía RSS, en apps independientes, o incluso en videopodcast a través de plataformas que nada tienen que ver, badum tss. Y claro, llegamos a la burbuja del podcasting de influencers. Aquí sí que creo que estamos muy cerca del pinchazo. Porque tener un podcast implica constancia, paciencia y un compromiso que no todos los influencers están dispuestos a mantener más allá de la primera temporada… o ni eso. Y luego están los que dicen tener un podcast y lo único que hacen son reels o cortes de entrevistas ajenas. Eso, para mí, no es un podcast. También reflexiono sobre los videopodcast. No el contenido de audio que se graba en vídeo, sino ese formato tan estético —sillones, micros grandes, planos cuidados— que intenta parecer un podcast, pero no lo es. Eso también está a punto de explotar. En resumen: sí, ha habido burbujas en el podcasting, muchas. Algunas nos han venido bien como sector, otras han desviado la atención de lo que, para mí, es el corazón de este medio: el podcast de nicho, hecho con cariño, con mimo, sin necesidad de focos ni fuegos artificiales. Por eso sigo creyendo en esta olla de cocción lenta en la que muchos seguimos cocinando episodios con calma, con honestidad, sin necesidad de perseguir tendencias. Y si tú también estás en ese punto, espero que este episodio te haga sentir que no estás solo al otro lado del micrófono.Espero tus comentarios en la plataforma donde escuchas habitualmente este podcast o a través del canal del Telegram del programa al que puedes acceder entrando en: http://alotroladodelmicrofono.com/telegram_________________Consigue tu entrada para el directo de 'ComedyCon' el 27 de septiembre en las Podnights Madrid a través de Eventbrite https://www.eventbrite.es/e/entradas-comedy-con-en-podnights-madrid-1567143762179______________________________ ¡Gracias por pasarte 'Al otro lado del micrófono' un día más para seguir aprendiendo sobre podcasting!

1214. Hoy me toca hablarte con una sonrisa especial porque este episodio no va solo de la Rodecaster Duo, sino del apoyo directo que he recibido por parte de quienes estáis al otro lado del micrófono. Esta interfaz de audio, que ahora forma parte esencial de mi estudio, ha sido posible gracias a las aportaciones vía Ko-fi que muchos y muchas hicisteis durante la temporada pasada. Y solo por eso, ya merecía un episodio dedicado. Me cuesta no llamarla Rodecaster Pro Duo, porque ese sufijo “Pro” le viene al pelo, pero oficialmente es Rodecaster Duo, la versión más reducida —pero igual de robusta— de la Rodecaster Pro II. Y ya te adelanto que si estás buscando una interfaz con calidad, potencia y tamaño contenido, esta puede ser una opción ideal. En el capítulo de hoy repaso con detalle qué la hace diferente respecto a sus hermanas mayores. Para empezar, pasamos de cuatro entradas XLR a solo dos, lo que la convierte en una herramienta perfecta para quienes grabamos en solitario o en pareja, tanto presencial como remotamente. En mi caso, tener una interfaz más compacta, que no ocupe media mesa y que no tenga que estar desconectando y conectando cada vez que grabo fuera de casa, era justo lo que necesitaba. A nivel de conectividad, mantiene casi todo lo que ofrece la Pro 2: entradas USB duales, entrada Bluetooth, pads programables (con efectos asignables a los micros), salida para monitores, dos salidas traseras de auriculares y —aquí viene uno de los grandes aciertos— una salida adicional delantera para auriculares, ideal para productores o técnicos que trabajamos con clientes en grabaciones. Algo que inexplicablemente se perdió en la Pro 2. En cuanto al software, prácticamente es idéntico al de la Pro 2, con ecualización avanzada, presets para micrófonos populares (sí, también está el Shure SM7B) y una interfaz táctil desde la que puedes configurar hasta el más mínimo detalle, ya seas podcaster, músico o monologuista. Todo está pensado para que grabar sea tan cómodo como divertido. Y no solo eso. Esta Rodecaster Duo incluye compatibilidad con la nueva función Rode Call, de la que te hablaré en otro episodio, pero que ya anticipo que es otro puntazo. A pesar de su precio, que se acerca bastante al de modelos superiores, la calidad, el servicio postventa y la durabilidad de Rode lo justifican con creces. En mi caso, me ganaron como cliente cuando me cambiaron una Rodecaster Pro por una Pro 2 días antes de acabar la garantía, y no soy el único. Hay casos como el de Sunne que incluso lo consiguieron fuera de plazo. Ahora que ya tengo este nuevo juguete en casa, te adelanto cuál va a ser el próximo objetivo en Ko-fi: los micrófonos inalámbricos RØDE Wireless PRO. Pero eso ya lo contaré más adelante, con sus razones y su justificación, también pensando en el crecimiento de EOVE Productora y en futuros eventos como Podnights Madrid. Gracias, de corazón, por hacer posible que este proyecto siga creciendo día a día. Hoy más que nunca, grabar con este equipo me recuerda por qué este podcast existe: por ti, que estás ahora mismo al otro lado del micrófono.Si quieres conocer todos los detalles sobre esta gran interfaz de audio para grabar podcast, puedes entrar a la página de RØDE: https://rode.com/es/products/rodecaster-duoAquí puedes comprar una Rodecaster DUO en Amazon gracias a mi enlace de afiliados: https://amzn.to/3JZFfnD_________________Consigue tu entrada para el directo de 'ComedyCon' el 27 de septiembre en las Podnights Madrid a través de Eventbrite https://www.eventbrite.es/e/entradas-comedy-con-en-podnights-madrid-1567143762179______________________________ ¡Gracias por pasarte 'Al otro lado del micrófono' un día más para seguir aprendiendo sobre podcasting!

From deepfakes to job automation, artificial intelligence is no longer on the horizon - it is already reshaping how we live, work, and govern. As the pace of technological change accelerates, the social, political, ethical and economic consequences are becoming harder to ignore. This autumn, Trinity College Dublin's School of Social Sciences and Philosophy presents AI: The Age of Disruption, a free public lecture series exploring the impact of artificial intelligence on human life. Across four Thursday evenings in September and October, experts from the School's four departments (Sociology, Philosophy, Economics and Political Science) will examine the complex realities of AI from multiple disciplinary perspectives. Paul O'Grady, Head of the School of Social Sciences and Philosophy, explains: "Artificial intelligence is already transforming our world in profound ways, from the way we work and interact to how we govern and make decisions. This series brings together researchers from across the School to explore what that means for individuals, institutions and society as a whole. We hope these events will spark important conversations and invite the public to think critically about the kind of future we are creating." Dates: Thursday 25 September, 2, 9 & 16 October 2025 Time: 7.00 pm - 8.30 pm Location: The Synge Theatre, Arts Building, Trinity College Dublin Admission: Free, but advance registration required. Full details and registration are available on Eventbrite. Schedule of Lectures: 'A New Sociology of Humans and Machines', Thursday 25 September 2025. What happens when machines become part of society? Professor Taha Yasseri, from the Department of Sociology, explores how intelligent systems are shaping communication, cooperation and decision-making, and why we may need a new sociological framework to understand our changing social world. 'Machines Like Us? The Ethics of Artificial General Intelligence', Thursday 2 October 2025. Can we create minds more powerful than our own, and should we? Dr Will Ratoff, from the Department of Philosophy, investigates the ethical, social and existential dilemmas raised by artificial general intelligence, from the promise of progress to the risks of unchecked creation. 'The New Economic Order with AI', Thursday 9 October 2025. AI is revolutionising work and productivity, but at what cost? Dr Jian Cao, from the Department of Economics, discuss how artificial intelligence is reshaping the global economy, and what governments and societies must do to adapt, regulate and prepare for the future. 'Democracy & AI: Navigating the Political Risks', Thursday 16 October 2025. From deepfakes to data-driven campaigning, AI is challenging the foundations of democracy. Political Scientists Professor Constantine Boussalis, Dr Tom Paskhalis and Dr Asli Ceren Cinar explore the rise of algorithmic influence, misinformation, and targeted propaganda, and how democratic systems can adapt and respond.

Taylor Swift anuncia su disco en un podcast: impacto y récord en New Heights

1213. Taylor Swift ha vuelto a reventar las métricas… y lo ha hecho desde un podcast. No en un escenario, no en una entrevista televisiva, no en una publicación de Instagram. Desde un episodio grabado en New Heights, el programa que su actual pareja —y futuro marido— Travis Kelce conduce junto a su hermano Jason. Un podcast sobre fútbol americano que se ha convertido, por méritos propios (y por cuñadas ilustres), en un auténtico escaparate mediático a nivel global. En el episodio de hoy te cuento cómo esta aparición sorpresa de Taylor, en un programa que normalmente gira en torno a la NFL, ha desatado una ola de reacciones que va mucho más allá de los touchdowns o las yardas. Porque este no ha sido un cameo cualquiera: ha sido el espacio elegido por la artista para desvelar tanto la portada como la fecha de lanzamiento de su próximo disco. Y claro, el bombazo ha sido de proporciones épicas. Me he pasado por el canal de YouTube del podcast —uno de los pocos sitios donde podemos ver cifras públicas— y el vídeo acumula más de 22 millones de visualizaciones. A eso habría que sumarle los shorts, los reels, los TikToks y los miles de fragmentos que han compartido medios, cuentas de fans y hasta perfiles institucionales. El impacto ha sido tan bestia que, según Merca2.0, el podcast ha batido el récord Guinness al episodio más visto en directo en YouTube. Nada más y nada menos. Que tiemble Ibai, aunque bueno… Ibai no es podcast, ya me entendéis.Taylor Swift establece récord histórico en podcast y entra al Guinness con ‘New Heights'https://www.merca20.com/taylor-swift-establece-record-historico-en-podcast-y-entra-al-guinness-con-new-heights/ Y lo mejor de todo esto es que el anuncio se hizo en un entorno completamente familiar. Dos hermanos, uno de ellos pareja de Taylor, charlando en su programa semanal. La típica conversación de cuñados, pero con un alcance global. Porque lo que han conseguido Jason y Travis con New Heights es abrir un espacio que, sin perder el foco deportivo, se permite hablar de cultura pop, de vivencias personales y ahora, también, de lanzamientos discográficos y bodas de alto voltaje._________________Este capítulo llega a tus oídos gracias a ‘Efemerides Podcast', el programa que repasa los hechos históricos acontecidos de cada día del año en formato semanal. Presentado por David Tella y distribuido en todas las plataformas. Suscríbete a través de tu favorita entrando en el siguiente enlace https://pod.link/1078972069_________________ Y sí, porque además del disco, pocos días después se anunció el compromiso oficial entre Travis y Taylor. Ese anuncio no se hizo en el podcast, pero como era de esperar, sí fue uno de los temas estrella del siguiente episodio. El efecto dominó está servido: fans de la NFL enganchados al fenómeno Swiftie y seguidores de Taylor curioseando sobre la vida deportiva de su pareja. Todo eso, gracias a un podcast. A mí personalmente, ni Taylor Swift ni la NFL me quitan el sueño, pero reconozco que este episodio me ha servido para volver a confirmar que el podcasting no es solo un canal más: es un escaparate estratégico, directo, emocional y con capacidad de generar impacto mundial. Que una artista como Taylor Swift elija este formato para anunciar su próximo trabajo no es casualidad. Es un síntoma de madurez del medio.

Born in Long Island in 1966, Dave Verrone's life began with separation — just five days after birth, he was placed with a foster family. For the next 14 months, he bonded deeply with his foster parents and three siblings. In October 1967, he joined the Verrone family, adjusting to his third mother, his father, and a new sister, also adopted. Childhood brought both love and challenge. Though his adoptive parents cared for him deeply, their “clean slate” approach left Dave hesitant to ask about his origins, shaping him into a quiet “pleaser” who avoided rocking the boat. Separation anxiety, shyness, and self-doubt followed him, but so did perseverance. Through life's ups and downs - successes, losses, and moments of self-discovery - Dave built his own family and, in time, reconnected with his biological relatives. His journey is one of resilience, acceptance, and the enduring search for identity.

In this episode, Devin Reed, one of the leading voices in content and marketing, opens up about the defining moments that shaped his career—from growing up between two very different cultures in Sacramento to building a name for himself at Eventbrite, Gong, and Clari before stepping out on his own. He shares candid stories of career pivots, from giving up on his dream of teaching to unexpectedly landing in tech sales, and later realizing his sweet spot in content marketing. Devin reflects on the sting of being graded a “seven” at a company that recruited him aggressively, the intimidation of being told he wasn't qualified for his role at just 25, and the burnout he faced after tying too much of his worth to productivity.Now as a founder, creator, and dad, he talks about learning to measure success not in metrics but in moments—balancing ambition with presence, and re-wiring what it means to “win” in both business and life.In this conversation, you'll learn:- Why it's essential to question feedback and define your own worth- How to recognize poor leadership and build a healthier leadership style- What it takes to reset old wiring around ambition and successThings to listen for:(00:00) Intro(01:59) Devin's upbringing and early career(02:47) Transition to marketing and entrepreneurship(03:01) Facing challenges and finding success(06:33) Pivotal career moments(08:08) Thank you to our sponsor, Navattic(11:33) Navigating tough feedback(17:17) The impact of therapy and self-worth(21:28) Dealing with imposter syndrome(26:46) Realizing the importance of empathy in leadership(28:40) Learning from coaches and mentors(34:48) Balancing work and personal life(38:50) Implementing new habits and boundaries(46:20) Setting goals for fulfillment and happiness(49:25) Caution in advice and embracing relatabilityA huge thanks to this episode's sponsor:Navattic: Interactive Product Demo Software - https://navattic.com/value Resources:Connect with Devin:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/devinreed/The Reeder (official website): https://www.thereeder.coReed Between The Lines (podcast): https://www.thereeder.co/content-hub/podcastConnect with Andrew:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/andrewcapland/ Substack: https://media.deliveringvalue.coHire Andrew as your coach: https://deliveringvalue.co/coachingJoin Growth OS: https://deliveringvalue.co/growth-operating-system

If you've ever wondered why smart, self-aware women stay in bad relationships—or why it's so hard to move on—you're going to want to listen to this one. Heather Melville (Counselor Endotype) is a toxic relationship recovery coach with the receipts: she left an abusive 8-year relationship, walked away from a successful engineering career, and now helps other women rebuild lives they actually love. In this episode, we dig into why healing after toxicity isn't about “finding the next one”—it's about reconnecting to yourself, learning to trust your intuition, and forgiving yourself for what you didn't know then. We also talk about the not-so-funny problem of being a coach with a soft brand voice that doesn't match your bold, hilarious truth. Heather now lives full-time in a converted shuttle bus with her fiancé, running workshops from the road and building a business that aligns with her real voice—one that's smart, sarcastic, and deeply committed to helping women stop fixing everyone else and finally choose themselves. Her background in engineering and lighting design makes her story even more compelling: this is a coach who rebuilt every part of her life—from the ground up. ➤ Learn more or work with Heather: https://healthyrelationships.info ➤ Follow her workshops on Eventbrite under “Healthy Relationships” ➤ Take the Endotype Quiz at https://endotype.com ➤ Book a Connection and Direction call: https://ravingcoaches.com/c&d

1212. Hoy traigo un nuevo episodio para hablarte de los Premios iVoox, porque si estás escuchando esto antes del 14 de septiembre de 2025, es vital que sepas que ese día se cierra el plazo para apuntar tu podcast —o apuntarte tú mismo como creador o creadora— a la octava edición de los Premios de la Audiencia de iVoox. Y si llegas a tiempo, hoy te traigo todos los detalles para que no te quedes fuera por despiste.La semana pasada dediqué un episodio completo al repaso de otros cuatro certámenes de premios para podcast —Asespod, Asociación Podcast, Podgaming y Tracking Bilbao— pero justo al terminar de grabarlo, editarlo, maquetarlo y dejarlo listo para publicación… ¡zas! Aparece el anuncio oficial de los premios iVoox 2025. Así que en vez de rehacerlo todo, he preferido hacer este nuevo capítulo, exclusivamente dedicado a esta convocatoria, que viene con novedades y con muchos matices a tener en cuenta.Aquí puedes escuchar el pasado capítulo 1208, titulado 'Premios para podcast: cuatro certámenes abiertos este otoño':https://alotroladodelmicrofono.com/premios-para-podcast-cuatro-certamenes-abiertos-este-otono/ Como ya viene siendo tradición, los Premios de la Audiencia de iVoox buscan reconocer, por votación popular, a los podcasts favoritos del público. En esta edición, hay 14 categorías principales (desde misterio hasta humor, pasando por empresa, psicología, deportes o música), además de tres premios adicionales otorgados por un jurado: Mejor Podcast Revelación, Mejor Podcast de Marca y Mejor Podcast del Año. Si quieres participar, hay que cumplir unos requisitos básicos: haber publicado al menos tres episodios en 2025 (sí, solo tres), tener carátula y descripción actualizadas, y estar disponible en castellano o en cualquiera de las lenguas cooficiales. No importa si estás en exclusiva en iVoox o no. Eso sí, si estás alojado en la propia plataforma, tendrás un plus de visibilidad si resultas ganador: tu podcast aparecerá destacado durante todo un año, valorado en casi 60 euros al mes. Las fechas clave: tienes hasta el 14 de septiembre para inscribirte. Luego, del 15 de septiembre al 5 de octubre, iVoox revisará las candidaturas. La votación del público será del 6 de octubre al 2 de noviembre, y la gala online de entrega se celebrará en noviembre (aún sin fecha cerrada). He repasado todas y cada una de las 13 bases legales del certamen, desde la gestión de datos hasta las cláusulas anti-fraude, pasando por los criterios de descalificación o el sistema de votación anónima desde app móvil. Y aunque en algún punto se les ha colado algún que otro término cuestionable (como eso de “objeto del premio” en vez de “objetivo”), la convocatoria está bastante clara y, sobre todo, abierta a cualquiera que publique en iVoox. Así que si me estás escuchando y todavía no te has inscrito, te animo a hacerlo cuanto antes. Ya sabes lo que digo siempre: esto no va solo de ganar, va de visibilizar nuestro trabajo, de poner en valor nuestro esfuerzo y de animar a nuestra audiencia a apoyarnos de forma activa. Aunque no consigas el premio, el simple hecho de postularte ya es una excusa perfecta para darle un empujón a tu proyecto y conectar con tu comunidad.

1211. La iniciativa Metal Gear ha vuelto a ponerme los dientes largos. Trece podcasts distintos han unido fuerzas para rendir homenaje, repasar, analizar y disfrutar a fondo de una de las sagas más icónicas del mundo del videojuego. Metal Gear, con Hideo Kojima a la cabeza, vuelve a ser protagonista gracias al empuje del grupo Podgaming y de todas las voces que han querido sumarse a esta misión colaborativa. En este episodio te traigo una recopilación de los 13 capítulos que forman parte de esta iniciativa. Desde el primer título hasta los más modernos, cada uno tiene su propio espacio, su enfoque particular y, en muchos casos, una duración que da vértigo. De hecho, el episodio que abre esta serie, publicado por Chaydgam Corps, dura más de nueve horas. Sí, has leído bien: nueve horas y ocho minutos dedicadas a Snatcher, una de las primeras incursiones del universo Kojima. Como ya es habitual en estas colaboraciones nacidas del grupo Podgaming, cada podcast se encarga de abordar una entrega de la saga. Hay títulos para todos los gustos: desde los clásicos de MSX hasta los más recientes, pasando por entregas míticas como Metal Gear Solid 3 o The Phantom Pain. Y lo mejor es que todo este contenido ya está disponible en los respectivos feeds de cada programa, así que no hay excusa para no zambullirse en el universo Snake. Además, se han organizado listas de reproducción tanto en iVoox como en Spotify, y para rizar el rizo, incluso hay un feed exclusivo creado por Josh Lucas desde su web FeedBueno.es. Todo esto me parece una auténtica maravilla de coordinación, de mimo, de cariño por la saga y, sobre todo, de amor al podcasting. Porque sí, este tipo de iniciativas demuestran que no hay barreras cuando se trata de unir pasiones.Lista de la iniciativa en Ivoox:https://www.ivoox.com/iniciativa-metal-gear_bk_list_11304347_1.htmlLista de la iniciativa en Spotify:https://open.spotify.com/playlist/6sWNPFs10zi9DAwo3I0KGLFeed de la iniciativa:https://www.feedbueno.es/imetal/feed.xml Tengo que confesar que yo nunca he sido jugador de Metal Gear, aunque más de una vez me han dado ganas de ponerme con ello. Quizás esta sea la excusa perfecta para meterme de lleno en su universo. Eso sí, me esperan muchas horas por delante. Pero oye, si tú también sientes curiosidad, o si eres fan de la saga, no te puedes perder este recopilatorio. Y ya que estamos, aprovecho para tirar un pequeño tirón de orejas (con cariño) a quienes organizan estas movidas… que siempre doy voz a estas iniciativas, las difundo, las comento y les dedico episodios enteros, pero pocas veces me incluyen. Alguna vez sí, lo reconozco, pero no tantas como me gustaría. En fin, ahí lo dejo, por si alguien se da por aludido._________________Consigue tu entrada para el directo de 'ComedyCon' el 27 de septiembre en las Podnights Madrid a través de Eventbrite https://www.eventbrite.es/e/entradas-comedy-con-en-podnights-madrid-1567143762179_____________ ¡Gracias por pasarte 'Al otro lado del micrófono' un día más para seguir aprendiendo sobre podcasting!

In this episode of Branded Leaders, host Ben Kaplan sits down with Brian Irving, Chief Marketing Officer at Lyft, to discuss how Lyft differentiates itself in a rideshare industry that often looks like a race to the bottom.Brian shares how Lyft avoids competing solely on price by leaning into its DNA as a purposeful rebel brand — building services around freedom, connection, and customer obsession. He reveals how Lyft is adapting its identity from quirky early days (pink mustaches and friendly drivers) to serving business travelers, healthcare rides, and diverse audiences with evolving needs.The conversation explores Lyft's approach to autonomous vehicles, why it's doubling down on human-first innovation, and how FlexDrive and new partnerships expand the platform's future. Brian also reflects on his career journey from Flint, Michigan, to Silicon Valley, with pivotal chapters at Apple, Google, Airbnb, and Eventbrite. Along the way, he shares the best advice he's ever received, how curiosity shapes his leadership, and why learning to say “I get to” instead of “I have to” changed his perspective on work and life.Packed with candid stories, career lessons, and insights into the future of mobility and marketing, this episode offers a rare look at how Lyft's CMO is steering the brand beyond rides to something much bigger: freedom.

Karen was adopted domestically at birth, and found by her birth family at 29, and entered reunion soon after. The experience of merging her past and present was both transformational and complex, bringing up emotions and questions she hadn't fully confronted before. During this time, Karen sought therapy but struggled to find someone who truly understood the adoptee experience. Many available therapists were adoptive parents—well-intentioned, but not individuals she felt safe opening up to. This gap in adoptee-centered care inspired Karen to return to graduate school in her 40s to become the kind of therapist she needed: someone with lived experience, deep empathy, and the tools to support others navigating the lifelong journey of adoption. Now, as an adoptee-competent therapist, Karen is committed to holding space for fellow adoptees as they explore identity, grief, belonging, and connection on their own terms.

American labor unions struggled to adjust to the changing dynamics of the world economy during the mid-to-late twentieth century. Charting this complex process is Dr. Melanie Sheehan, assistant professor of history at Hartwick College and recent Hagley-NEH postdoctoral fellow. Sheehan has discovered that during the post-WWII moment, union economists supported trade liberalization as a means of multiplying the comparative advantages enjoyed by U.S. producers and exporters so long as it was accompanied by aid to impacted industries and displaced workers. However, while trade liberalization proceeded apace, and foreign competition rapidly gained ground against American made goods, the planned and hoped-for aid failed to materialize. This forced unions to reassess their commitment to liberal trade policies, as their industries, first textiles, then steel, and finally automotives, faced the implications of increasingly efficient foreign competition. In support of her work Dr. Sheehan received funding from the Center for the History of Business, Technology, and Society at the Hagley Museum and Library, and the National Endowment for the Humanities.

Pete Droge is a critically acclaimed singer/songwriter based in Seattle, WA who rocketed to early stardom on the strength of his 1994 debut Necktie Second. The Los Angeles Times compared his songwriting to Bob Dylan and Neil Young while also earning similar praise from Rolling Stone and Boston Globe among many others, and within a year he was on the road supporting Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers. He has since released a series of well-received solo albums, composed a variety of works for film and television, and even appeared in Cameron Crowe's Almost Famous. Sixteen years ago, Pete Droge went looking for his birth mother; instead, he found her obituary. But rather than marking the end of the story, the discovery ultimately led him to reconnect with his surviving relatives and started a journey that would forever change his life and career. He explores it all with poetic grace on Fade Away Blue, a rich, revelatory sonic memoir that faces down doubt and despair with love, resilience, and commitment at every turn. The songs are bittersweet, balancing longing and gratitude in equal measure, and the arrangements are warm and inviting to match, with Droge's tender, comforting lyrics and easygoing, understated delivery.

Bob Wilson an adoptee born in the early 1970s at the end of the Baby Scoop Era. During his childhood and young adulthood, he thought little about the fact that he was adopted. But after reading Ann Fessler's groundbreaking book The Girls Who Went Away (2007) about adoption in mid-twentieth century America, he began the legal process of unsealing his adoption records and attempting to find his birthmother. He located and contacted his birthmother nearly two decades ago and has had a close relationship with her since then. In 2020, GeoHumanities published his essay “Relinquished,” a narrative of his birthmother's fraught journey to surrender him for adoption and the legacy of that decision. “Relinquished” is a story of a birthmother and adoptee, but it also illuminates the history of adoption, abortion, and unplanned pregnancies in the decades before Roe v. Wade. He is currently associate professor of geography and the environment in the Maxwell School of Citizenship and Public Affairs at Syracuse University, where he teaches courses in historical geography, environmental history, and the environmental humanities.
