Send us a textResponsibility breaks where AI moves fastest, and that's exactly where we go today. Grant sits down with Daniel Ikem—strategic operator at the intersection of emerging technology, intellectual property, and public policy—to unpack how shadow AI, data limits, and legal gray zones collide inside modern organizations. From boardrooms pushing Copilot to teams quietly pasting prompts into other models, we trace how governance cracks form and why documentation, auditability, and accountability must evolve as quickly as the tools.Daniel shares firsthand insights from big-tech partnerships and from founding the Diverse IP Alliance, where he's helping HBCU and underrepresented students build fluency in AI and IP. We examine the core challenges leaders face: capturing tacit knowledge that models can't see, preventing biased historical data from influencing outcomes, and defining ownership of outputs when proprietary data mixes with external systems. We also tackle the jagged frontier of agentic AI—who's liable when autonomy kicks in—and the geopolitical reality that makes “slow down” easier to say than to implement.You'll walk away with pragmatic steps to act now: set clear policies on approved models and data access, capture critical processes that were never written down, design human-in-the-loop review for high-impact decisions, and build a living risk register that survives model updates. We compare U.S. uncertainty with GDPR and the EU AI Act to show where global benchmarks can guide you before domestic rules arrive. Above all, we make the case that governance is not just compliance—it's strategy, trust, and long-term resilience.If you care about AI governance, IP risk, bias, and building a talent pipeline that reflects the communities your systems will serve, this one's for you. Subscribe, share with a colleague who's wrestling with AI policy, and leave a review with your top governance question so we can tackle it next.Thanks for tuning in to this episode of Follow The Brand!

IRISH & CELTIC MUSIC PODFEST AND ARTS MARKET This is a one  -  day music festival and arts market that will take place on Sunday, March 8, 2026 at The Lost Druid Brewery in Avondale Estates, GA, 15 minutes from downtown Atlanta. There are four bands performing at the festival. I am performing one show solo and one show with May Will Bloom, where my daughter takes the lead. Kinnfolk will join us as well as I mentioned last week. But the final band performing at the festival is a 3  -  piece version of The Muckers, our local Celtic punk band. That will complete our lineup. Follow our event page on Facebook for more details. Or Follow us for Free on our Patreon page. Now my next goal is to raise $2500 so that all of the bands are paid a decent wage and to promote our first  -  ever Celtic festival. To that end, I added three new rewards for Kickstarter. Each is a chance to sponsor individual bands at the festival. When you do, you'll get one of the first album pins from each of these amazing Celtic bands. That's because we are highlighting album pins at the festival as well, as another means to promote the music of bands. Our album pins are wooden lapel pins themed to a particular album released by a band. The buyer gets a digital download of the album, then they can wear their album! There's just 8 days left on this Kickstarter. So please make a pledge to support Celtic culture through music. THANK YOU PATRONS OF THE PODCAST! Because of you, this podcast exists.

We kick things off by mapping out the 2026 gaming calendar—not with rankings, but with a realistic survival guide. From early-year sequel grinds like Nioh 3 and Resident Evil Requiem, to spring's speed-and-stealth energy with Forza Horizon 6 and 007 First Light, and all the way to an end-of-year showdown between Fable and Grand Theft Auto VI, we talk through when these games hit, which ones demand your time, and where busy gamers might actually squeeze them in. Along the way, we call out wildcards, potential shadow drops, and the titles we're most excited—and most scared—to make room for.From there, we pivot into a deep-dive discussion on South of Midnight, a game with one of the most striking art styles and soundtracks in recent memory, but a gameplay loop that struggles to keep up with its ambition. We debate whether incredible vibes, music, and world-building can carry a repetitive “walk, fight, repeat” structure, and ask the tough question: would this experience have been better as a short animated series than a full-length game?We close the episode with two heavy conversations: first, a brutally honest look at Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 and whether hyper-realism has crossed the line from immersive to exhausting, especially for players with limited time. Then we zoom out to the industry level, breaking down Ubisoft's massive shakeup—cancelled games, creative restructuring, controversial AI initiatives, and a stock crash that raises real concerns about the publisher's future. Is this a painful but necessary reset, or the beginning of the end? As always, we leave it to you: which games define your 2026, how much realism is too much, and is Ubisoft still worth believing in?Show Notes:0:46 - Housekeeping2:36 - GTA VI, Fable, and the 2026 Games We Can't Miss59:31 - South of Midnight: A 10/10 World in a 6/10 Game1:26:09 - Is Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 TOO Realistic to Be Fun?1:45:36 - Ubisoft at the Crossroads — Can They Still Win?2:09:35 - Upcoming Video Game Releases Become a part of the conversation!

The road to First Light has begun! This week kicks off a new series on Still Loading to celebrate the upcoming James Bond game from IO Interactive called 007 First Light. To kick off the series I am joined by Chris from Consoles and Stuff along with Luigi's Apartment to talk about the first Bond game on the PS2/GameCube/Xbox, James Bond 007: Agent Under Fire. We talk about clones, bodies disappearing mid explosion, bad henchmen and uncomfortable amounts of horniness in the game. But it is James Bond so what do you expect.

In this episode of First Light, Chuck talks about fear and what it feels like, where it shows up, and how it can either stop us or shape us. Through personal stories of moments when he was genuinely scared but chose to do the right thing anyway, Chuck reminds us that fear isn't always something to avoid—it's often something to walk through with faith. He ties those experiences back to Scripture and the reminder found in Psalm 27:1: "The Lord is my light and my salvation—whom shall I fear? The Lord is the stronghold of my life—of whom shall I be afraid?" A quiet encouragement to trust God, even when fear is loud.

Send us a textThe ground is shifting under our feet as AI moves from answering questions to taking action. We dig into what that transformation really means for leaders: how operating models evolve, where risk compounds, and what it takes to capture speed without inviting chaos. With Dr. Jamila Amimer, CEO of MindSenses Global and a recognized AI strategist, we unpack practical steps to go from pilots to production and build systems that are fast, reliable, and governed.We start by separating AI families—predictive, generative, and agentic—and why each demands a different approach to design, safety, and measurement. Dr. Amimer explains why spatial AI and the convergence with robotics will redefine context and capability, and how to prepare now without tossing out today's LLM investments. From domain expertise and humans in the loop to controlled knowledge bases and action approvals, we lay out the essential guardrails to minimize hallucinations, manage model drift, and avoid compounding errors at scale.Then we turn to the human layer. HR data becomes a strategic asset, revealing task flows and handoffs that inform agent orchestration. We talk through preserving meaning and motivation as agents absorb routine work, and how equitable upskilling—analytical thinking, data literacy, exception handling—keeps teams engaged and effective. Accountability and auditability aren't abstract; they're the difference between a clever demo and a trustworthy system your board will support.If you're ready to move beyond hype and design AI that plans, decides, and acts with confidence, this conversation gives you the operating principles to start today and scale tomorrow. If this resonated, follow the show, share it with a colleague who cares about AI governance, and leave a review so we can reach more leaders building responsibly.Thanks for tuning in to this episode of Follow The Brand!

In this episode of First Light, Chuck reflects on the nature of sheep and their relationship with a shepherd. Sheep don't always understand what the shepherd is doing, and because of that, they often resist—confusing guidance for restriction and protection for loss. Chuck connects this truth to our own lives. When God's direction doesn't line up with what we want, it can feel disappointing or even wrong. But often, that feeling isn't because His plan is bad—it's because we don't yet understand what's best for us. Not What I Wanted is a reminder that trust is built in the unknown, and that the Shepherd sees the full picture even when we don't.

Send us a textWhat if the gap between talking about AI and profiting from it is only one habit wide? We sit down with Kellen Coleman—PR strategist, government contracting pro, and builder of AI-powered tools—to unpack how creators and small teams turn brand visibility into real revenue. The throughline is simple: certificates don't close deals. Consistency, timing, and proof of work do.We start with the difference between AI literacy and AI leverage. Kellen traces how collecting knowledge means nothing without shipped projects, measurable outcomes, and rooms where decisions are made. From RFIs to RFQs, he explains why showing up early in procurement cycles creates unfair advantages, and how reputation flips outreach so that opportunities start finding you. We map the first AI moves for teams under ten: goal-led prompting, agent workflows for research and drafting, a shared prompt library, and a weekly rhythm that converts saved time into shipped work.Money is the next frontier. Rather than automating tasks only, we use AI to reshape financial behavior: budget baselines, debt payoff plans, 401k funding strategies, and clear monthly reviews that compound. Kellen's stance is direct—retirement should mean dignity—and the path runs through systems that beat impulse. We also tackle the minority-owned business edge in this AI moment. Certifications open doors, but outreach, delivery, and narrative depth close deals. If the playing field of information is now flatter, focus becomes the lever that moves markets.By the end, you'll have a clear, practical blueprint: pick one AI platform, ask it to refine your prompts, build something tangible this week, and measure output over hours. Think asset-first, not attention-first. Let your brand do the pre-selling, and let consistent work make you easy to recommend. If this conversation sharpens your plan, subscribe, share it with a friend who needs the push, and leave a review telling us the one AI step you'll take this week.Thanks for tuning in to this episode of Follow The Brand!

Krystina dives into the newest Hunger Games installment, Sunrise on the Reaping—a gripping prequel that reveals Haymitch's dark backstory. The crew debates why this dystopian world still hooks us, and even teases the upcoming movie adaptation dropping later this year. From there, the conversation shifts to Vegas' mind-bending Sphere, where rumors have turned into reality: Metallica is 90% locked in for a 2027 residency! The gang imagines what a Metallica show without pyro would look like and shares hilarious personal stories about getting dizzy (and even throwing up!) inside the Sphere's immersive visuals. And just when you think it can't get any wilder, Lenny Kravitz joins the James Bond universe—as a charismatic pirate king named Bama in the upcoming 007: First Light video game. The hosts geek out over how gaming is becoming as cinematic as Hollywood blockbusters.

Happy New Year! Well, maybe not so happy for Sony. That's because -- if rumors and percolations are true -- PlayStation 5's ROM keys have been leaked, meaning that the console is likely on the verge of being jailbroken. And for veterans of the PS3 era, you know precisely what that means: Chaos. Well, maybe? Let's discuss this potentially serious development. Also: Ruminations on the passing of legendary games producer Vince Zampella, new inbound DualSense and cover colors, Marathon's exiting art director, Gran Turismo 7 quietly amassing a huge player base, Kojima's plans to cast (and begin shooting) PHYSINT this year, China Hero Project title Convallaria running into serious issues, Wolfenstein 3 whispers, and much more. Then: Listener inquiries! With computing component pricing and rarity skyrocketing, should we expect a much-delayed PlayStation 6 launch? With only a few weeks until launch, is Wildlight's F2P shooter Highguard in serious trouble? Following a second Ghost game, what should Sucker Punch make next?

In this episode of First Light, Chuck reflects on the nature of sheep—how they begin wary, unsure, and cautious of everything around them. Over time, they learn to recognize and trust their shepherd, understanding that he leads them with purpose and care. In the same way, we often struggle to see what's ahead in our own lives. We don't always understand God's plan, and uncertainty can make us hesitant to follow. But faith calls us to trust the Shepherd, even when the path isn't clear, knowing He leads us where we need to go.

Send us a textA bright dashboard can feel like certainty, but certainty is often the first illusion. We sit down with Dr. Mike Orkin, a seasoned statistician who has advised casinos and Fortune 100 leaders, to explore why smart people make bad calls when the numbers look right—and how to prevent it. From margin of error to the myth of tidy causation, Mike breaks down the difference between patterns worth acting on and patterns that will quietly burn your budget.We dig into classic misreads—like soda sales “causing” polio or alcohol “causing” lung cancer—and show how hidden variables twist decisions. Then we step onto the casino floor to see probability without the storytelling: independent trials, house edge, and why betting limits protect profits. If you've ever heard of positive expected value, you'll hear why it still fails without disciplined sizing, and how the Kelly criterion turns winning odds into sustainable advantage. Along the way, we tackle lotteries, survivor bias, and the uncomfortable truth that winners often emerge because enough people played, not because someone discovered a secret.AI enters as both accelerant and trap. Large language models thrive on correlation and can hallucinate when the evidence runs dry. Mike shares practical guardrails for using AI in places like engineering and support—pairing models with domain expertise, testing for failure modes, and resisting the lure of overconfidence. We also zoom out to a leader's mental model: when to think deterministically, when to think probabilistically, and how to blend data with context, incentives, and human will.If you're steering strategy, allocating capital, or building with AI, this conversation offers a clear checklist: respect uncertainty, size your bets, interrogate correlations, and hire experts who can “think with other people's brains.” Subscribe, share with a data-loving friend, and leave a review with one insight you'll apply this quarter.Thanks for tuning in to this episode of Follow The Brand!

In episode 128 of Unqualified Game Chat, Spencer and I start in a reflective place, talking about personal growth, burnout, confidence, and learning how to stop catastrophizing your own success. From there, the episode shifts into a long, unfiltered breakdown of attending The Game Awards—what worked, what didn't, and why the show continues to miss opportunities to support the developers who need it most. The episode closes with an on-site interview I conducted with IO Interactive during The Game Awards, focused on 007 First Light.

Luke 2v4-7 with Tyler Staton At Christmas, we reflect on the birth of Jesus and what it reveals about God's love. From Abraham to the manger, this teaching invites us to consider belief as a personal response to a God who comes near and makes his home with us bridgetown.church/teaching

239 James Bond finally feels like it's moving again.In this episode of Tailoring Talk Magazine, Roberto and Jon get back together to break down the biggest developments in the Bond universe after a long period of silence. With Amazon now firmly in control, major announcements are finally landing and there's a lot to talk about.We discuss the appointment of Denis Villeneuve as the next James Bond director, why his filmography makes him such an interesting choice and what his world-building approach could mean for the future of 007. We also look at Steven Knight joining as writer, best known for Peaky Blinders, and whether his involvement signals a more grounded, character-driven Bond.The conversation then turns to casting, where Callum Turner has emerged as the current favourite to take on the role of Bond. We break down who he is, why his name makes sense and why a lesser-known actor could be exactly what the franchise needs.Finally, Jon leads a deep dive into the upcoming Bond video game 007 First Light, including its younger Bond approach, Hitman-inspired gameplay, editions, DLC, Golden Gun controversy and whether this game could help define the next era of Bond ahead of the next film.Whether you're excited, sceptical or somewhere in between, Bond is back in motion and it's got people talking again.In this episode:Denis Villeneuve confirmed as the next James Bond directorWhat his previous films tell us about the future of BondSteven Knight joins as writer and what Peaky Blinders brings to 007Amazon's stewardship of the Bond franchiseCallum Turner rumours explainedWhy a lesser-known Bond actor can workTimeline for the next Bond filmFull breakdown of 007 First Light gameplayYoung Bond, spycraft and Hitman DNACollector's editions, DLC and the Golden Gun debateHow the game may influence Bond's future toneIf you enjoyed this episode, please follow or subscribe, leave us a rating and review, and share it with someone who loves James Bond as much as we do.James Bond, 007, Denis Villeneuve, Steven Knight, Callum Turner, Bond 26, Amazon James Bond, 007 First Light, James Bond game, Bond podcast, film discussion, movie news, Tailoring Talk Magazine Hosted on Acast.

Luke 1v26-38 with Tyler Staton Centered on Mary's encounter with the angel in Luke 1, the story of the Annunciation shows grace interrupting darkness and God's promises taking root in ordinary lives. It invites a posture of waiting, trust, and openness to receive what God is forming within us. bridgetown.church/teaching

Chuck Halford reflects on Christmas and the idea of anticipation. He shares a simple reminder from childhood—sneaking a look at your gifts never compares to the joy of the surprise. In the same way, we don't always see how the Lord is working in our lives. Sometimes the waiting, the unknown, and the trust are part of the gift itself. This episode is a reminder to lean into faith, trust God's timing, and embrace the beauty of not always knowing what's coming next. "For we walk by faith, not by sight." — 2 Corinthians 5:7

Luke 2v1–12 with Tyler Staton In the third week of Advent, we return to the story of Jesus' birth and consider the difference between sentiment and the joy announced by the angels. Walking through Luke 2, this teaching explores how joy enters real human chaos through costly hospitality and invites us to make room for Jesus and for one another right where we are.   bridgetown.church/teaching

In this week's episode, Chuck reflects on living with a heart of gratitude — not just when life falls into place, but in every moment God gives us. As we move through the holidays and approach Christmas, it's easy to get distracted by plans, gifts, and the rush of the season. Chuck reminds us that true thankfulness isn't tied to circumstances, but to recognizing God's goodness in every part of our lives. Whether it's family, fellowship, quiet mornings, or the challenges that teach us, we're invited to give thanks in all things — because every blessing comes from Him.   "Give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you." — 1 Thessalonians 5:18

Send us a textWhat if authority wasn't about being the best closer, but about creating the safest decision for your buyer? Grant sits down with Doug Brown—CEO of CEO Sales Strategies—to explore how shared context, credible associations, and personal ROI can transform ordinary sales conversations into trust-driven commitments. From New England roots to global brands, Doug shows why familiarity is a strategic lever, not a vanity metric.We dig into the gap between “good” sales teams and those viewed as market authorities. The surprise: status and positioning can tilt the field before price is ever discussed. Using vivid examples—from first-class optics to iconic venues—Doug explains how perception amplifies pricing power. But he also grounds it in craft: speak to the business ROI and the personal ROI driving real human decisions, whether that's safety, reputation, or career risk. Buyers sign when they feel both the numbers and the nerves are addressed.The heart of the conversation is resilience. Doug recounts a costly client pivot that vaporized roughly $2M, then shares the mental and operational playbook that pulled him forward: stop treating symptoms, remove root causes, and take one meaningful step every day toward a clear North Star. We also get practical with a 90-day revenue plan that works without heroics—set a truthful target, do the math on KPIs, reengage dormant clients, increase touchpoints, and define your ideal right-fit buyer to align message and market. We close with a grounded take on AI: use it to accelerate research and outreach, but never outsource the human-to-human moments that make complex deals possible.If you're ready to sell with authority, protect your margins, and build pipeline you can trust, this conversation gives you the mindset and methods to start today. Subscribe, share with a teammate who needs a boost, and leave a review with your biggest takeaway—we read every one.Thanks for tuning in to this episode of Follow The Brand!

Luke 1v56-66 with Tyler Staton In the second week of Advent, we look at Zechariah and Elizabeth's story and the quiet spaces where God meets us in disappointment and longing. Guided by Luke 1, we consider how slowing down helps us notice the first light of Jesus breaking into our ordinary lives.   bridgetown.church/teaching
