In this podcast episode, Vulcan (aka Coach House) discusses the impact of modern conveniences on our capabilities and daily lives. He explores how technology, while beneficial, can lead to a decline in physical fitness, social interactions, and problem-solving skills. The conversation emphasizes the importance of auditing personal capabilities and being prepared for unexpected situations, ultimately questioning whether our reliance on convenience makes us more fragile.TakeawaysConvenience can lead to a decline in physical capabilities.Technology is a double-edged sword; it can enhance or hinder our skills.Social interactions are diminishing due to reliance on technology.We should regularly audit our personal capabilities.Being prepared for unexpected situations is crucial.Micro conversations with strangers enrich our lives.Functional fitness is essential for maintaining utility in daily life.The mind is our most powerful tool for problem-solving.Modern conveniences can create a false sense of security.We must reflect on what conveniences we take for granted.TitlesThe Tyranny of Convenience: Are We Losing Our Capabilities?Navigating Modern Life: The Impact of Technology on UsSound bites"What are we losing?""It's a thinking exercise.""What if it goes away?"Chapters00:00 Introduction to Convenience and Capabilities02:48 The Tyranny of Convenience05:53 Technology and Its Impact on Daily Life08:42 Social Interactions and Micro Conversations11:34 Functional Fitness and Utility14:17 Auditing Personal Capabilities17:26 Preparedness and Problem Solving20:12 The Fragility of Modern Life23:07 The Importance of Physical Activity25:46 Conclusion and Reflection on Convenience

Policy Seminar | IFPRI Policy Seminar Empowerment in Crisis: Gender-Responsive Solutions for Fragile Food Systems Co-organized by IFPRI and the CGIAR Science Program on Food Frontiers and Security | Part of the Fragility to Stability Seminar Series November 12, 2025 Crises—whether driven by conflict, climate shocks, or economic instability—rarely affect everyone equally. Women and girls often bear the heaviest burdens, facing heightened food insecurity, disrupted livelihoods, and increased risks to their health and safety. Yet, women are not only victims of crisis—they are powerful drivers of resilience and recovery. “Empowerment in Crisis: Gender-Responsive Solutions for Fragile Food Systems” brings together researchers, policymakers, and practitioners to examine how gender inequalities are deepened by crises, and how response strategies can be designed to reverse these patterns. The discussion will highlight practical approaches that place women at the center of crisis response and recovery—strengthening their voices, protecting their rights, and harnessing their leadership to build more resilient and equitable food systems.

Será a justiça a maior virtude das instituições políticas? João Pereira Coutinho e Manuel Cardoso analisam à lupa várias conceções de justiça, defendidas por diferentes autores, e refletem sobre o papel da política na construção de uma sociedade justa.A justiça é um produto do poder soberano, como defendeu Thomas Hobbes, ou um princípio anterior ao Estado, como acreditava John Locke? Platão, que dedicou ao tema «A República», considerava a democracia um sistema político injusto, à luz da sua teoria da alma.A propósito da eterna tensão entre liberdade e igualdade, a dupla chega até ao séc. XX e à proposta de 'justiça como equidade', de John Rawls.Debate-se ainda a meritocracia, pela lente de Michael Sandel, bem como o papel da sorte e das contingências da vida no valor da conduta humana, de acordo com Martha Nussbaum.Para terminar, uma pergunta: será que deixamos um mundo justo às gerações futuras?Um episódio [IN]Pertinente, a não perder.REFERÊNCIAS ÚTEISBIGGAR, Nigel, «Reparations: Slavery and the Tyranny of Imaginary Guilt» (Forum)HOBBES, «Leviatã» (BookBuilders)LOCKE, «Dois Tratados do Governo Civil» (Ed. 70)NOZICK, Robert, «Anarquia, Estado e Utopia» (Ed. 70)NUSSBAUM, Martha, «The Fragility of Goodness: Luck And Ethics In Greek Tragedy And Philosophy» (C.U.P.)PLATÃO, «A República» (Gulbenkian)RAWLS, John, «Uma Teoria da Justiça» (Presença)SANDEL, Michael, «Justiça - Fazemos o que Devemos?» (Presença)SANDEL, Michael, «A Tirania do Mérito» (Presença)SEN, Amartya, «A Ideia de Justiça» (Almedina)WHITE, Jonathan, «In the Long Run: The Future as a Political Idea» (Profile)BIOSMANUEL CARDOSOÉ humorista e um dos autores do programa de sátira política «Isto É Gozar Com Quem Trabalha», da SIC.

Romina Boccia joins Nicholas Anthony to discuss how the shutdown centers on demands to extend subsidies for earners making well above median household income—all the way up to $500,000 annually. Federal workers and SNAP recipients have been offered up as political collateral for a deal that would cause an unprecedented $1.5 trillion in additional deficit spending—all while we continue trucking toward a fiscal cliff.Show Notes:Romina Boccia and Tyler Turman, "Food Stamp Shutdown Reveals the Fragility of Federal Welfare," Cato at Liberty Blog, October 30, 2025Romina Boccia and Tyler Turman, "End Obamacare's Welfare for the Wealthy COVID Credits," Cato at Liberty Blog, October 23, 2025Romina Boccia and Tyler Turman, "Welfare Digest | End the ACA Subsidies for the Well-Off," Debt Dispatch, October 22, 2025Romina Boccia and Ritvik Thakur, "Debt Digest | Remove Obamacare Regulations Instead of Extending COVID-era Credits," Debt Dispatch, October 14, 2025Romina Boccia, "Shutdown Theatrics Just Distract Us from the Real Problem: Obscene National Debt," New York Post, October 2, 2025Romina Boccia and Ritvik Thakur, "Debt Digest | Let Obamacare COVID Credits Expire," Debt Dispatch, October 2, 2025Romina Boccia, "Thoughts About the Government Shutdown," Cato at Liberty Blog, October 1, 2025Romina Boccia, Ritvik Thakur, and Ivane Nachkebia, "Debt Digest | Government Shutdown Is Likely," Debt Dispatch, September 8, 2025 Hosted on Acast.

In this episode of The New Rules Podcast, Adrian and Bri sit down with one of their favorite thinkers, Mark Sayers, pastor of Red Church in Melbourne and author of A Non-anxious Presence and Reappearing Church. Known for his insights on faith, culture, and leadership, Mark unpacks what it means to live and lead faithfully in a world defined by uncertainty, disinformation, and rapid technological change. Together, they explore: How AI and cultural instability are reshaping leadership. The hidden spiritual hunger emerging beneath global chaos. The loss of truth, the rise of tribalism, and what authentic hope looks like now. Why the next era of leadership requires depth, humility, and integrity rather than platforms. This is a timely and deeply grounded conversation about faith, formation, and the kind of leadership the future desperately needs.

We've all heard the term 'resiliency' before - but what does that actually mean? Remember - it's not about how much stress you can take, but how well you can RECOVER that really matters.

Matt Frei is the Europe editor and presenter of Channel 4 News who delivered the annual Steve Hewlett Memorial Lecture. We discuss his speech, the state of democracy in the United States and whether what is happening there can happen here, BBC's coverage of Gaza and the propaganda war, challenges facing traditional news organisations and whether there is a place for GB News, the domination of the news cycle by Trump, his personal journey from Germany to becoming a prominent British journalist, and the complex media landscape in the era of social media and political polarisation."The audience wants stories to be told to them. It's how we do it and to how many people. That's really the issue here. But the internet, the diversification, the anarchy of what we have before us is a golden opportunity to tell more stories to more people, or a different group of people in different ways, and that's fantastic, and we should celebrate that."Listen to all our episodes here: https://podfollow.com/beebwatchTo support our journalism and receive a weekly blog sign up now for £1.99 per month www.patreon.com/BeebWatch/membership @beebwatch.bsky.social@BeebRogerInstagram: rogerboltonsbeebwatchLinkedIn: Roger Bolton's Beeb Watchemail: roger@rogerboltonsbeebwatch.com Hosted on Acast.

We discuss the "ceasefire" in Gaza, Nick's braggadocious dreams about Bill "AIPACman" Ackman, then go down a politics rabbit hole from Graham Platner to Adelita Grijalva to Katie Porter to Marjorie Taylor Greene as we try to diagnose the Democratic Party's failure to court disaffected voters. We bring the discussion back home with Nick's recounting of a Wisconsin gubernatorial candidate's candor about their marital strifes and outlandish proposals. Then, Nick recites all of the nicknames Shawn gave Gus in the TV show Psych, trying to pick a favorite and Alex brags about his baseball achievements.

Policy Seminar | IFPRI Policy Seminar Informing Crisis Response in Sudan Co-organized by IFPRI and the CGIAR Science Program on Food Frontiers and Security | Part of the Fragility to Stability Seminar Series October 22, 2025 The recent resurgence of armed conflicts in Africa is increasing the need and urgency for investments in shock-responsive humanitarian and social assistance programs. Armed conflicts both increase the need for aid and greatly complicate delivery of humanitarian services to vulnerable populations. In addition, humanitarian organizations are facing an increasing funding gap because of dwindling donor aid. These challenges are forcing humanitarian organizations to revisit the effectiveness and cost-efficacy of their programs and services for conflict-affected populations. The choice and relative efficacy of alternative modalities and delivery of humanitarian or social assistance programs in these communities remains an active area of debate. The armed conflict in Sudan, which erupted in April 2023, has created the world's largest displacement crisis, and has left over 30 million of the 47.5 million Sudanese population needing multifaceted humanitarian assistance. To help inform the crisis response, this policy seminar will bring together researchers, practitioners, and humanitarian organizations working in Sudan to share and discuss recent evidence on preferences and impact of alternative modalities to deliver humanitarian aid amid armed conflict. Introduction and Opening Remarks Johan Swinnen, Director General, IFPRI Laurent Bukera, Country Director and Representative, UN World Food Programme (WFP), Sudan Highlights From Recent Findings Khalid Siddig, Senior Research Fellow and Leader of the Sudan Program, IFPRI Kibrom Abay, Senior Research Fellow, IFPRI Gabrielle Fox, Chief of Party, Cash Consortium of Sudan (CCS) Panel Discussion Alex De Waal, Executive Director, World Peace Foundation, Tufts University Samantha Chattaraj, ‏Emergency Coordinator, UN World Food Programme (WFP), Sudan Lena Mahgoub, Convener of the Sudan Social Protection Alliance (SSPA), Former Federal Minister of Labor and Social Development and Co-Founder of Impact Hub Khartoum Closing Remarks Katrina Kosec, Senior Research Fellow, IFPRI Moderator Hala Abushama, Research Analyst, IFPRI More about this Event: https://www.ifpri.org/event/informing-crisis-response-in-sudan/ Subscribe IFPRI Insights newsletter and event announcements at www.ifpri.org/content/newsletter-subscription

From myth and legend to cider-fuelled revolutions, from Johnny Appleseed's frontier orchards to the Victorians' quest for the perfect pippin, the story of the apple has been anything but ordinary. In the final part of this five-part series, John and Patrick follow the fruit onto the world stage - when refrigeration, global shipping, and empire transformed it into an international commodity. From Tasmania's “Apple Isle” and Cecil Rhodes's Cape orchards, to Japan's remarkable embrace of the fruit that would one day give us the Fuji, the apple became both a tool of empire and a symbol of modernization.But world war would shake that story, stripping Britain of its imported fruit and forcing farmers to dig for victory. The apple rallied in service of king and country - only to face a peacetime collapse that saw Britain's orchards vanish in the shadow of supermarket shelves and European imports. Yet the apple endures, still shaping landscapes, economies, and everyday diets around the globe.Join John and Patrick as they conclude the saga of the world's most storied fruit - a tale of empire, war, decline, and resilience - that leaves us with the apple we know today.----------In Sponsorship with Cornell University: Dyson Cornell SC Johnson College of Business-----------Join the History of Fresh Produce Club for ad-free listening, bonus episodes, book discounts and access to an exclusive chatroom community.Support us!Share this episode with your friendsGive a 5-star ratingWrite a review -----------Subscribe to our biweekly newsletter here for extra stories related to recent episodes, book recommendations, a sneak peek of upcoming episodes and more.-----------Step into history - literally!

Daniel Tobok takes on the cybersecurity sector after the AWS outage on Monday. “It once again reminds us of the fragility of internet connectivity, internet backbone,” he says. The internet is used for every aspect of modern life now, he stresses, even something as simple as ordering fast food.

REFLECTIONS is a short-form feature within The Photowalk podcast, offering thoughtful observations on a creative life and the themes that we often discuss on Fridays, including perfectionism, impostor syndrome, comparison, confidence, and more. It's a pause at the start of the week to recalibrate, recorded in the studio between the walks. Each Monday, you'll find Reflections on The Photowalk podcast feed, providing a creative reset to start the week. From Tuesday to Friday, it continues exclusively on our member-supported channel, The Extra Mile, for those who walk a little further with us. A tree almost striking my car, has me thinking on fragility. My sincere thanks to Arthelper, who sponsor this show, plus our Extra Milers, without whom we wouldn't be walking each week. WHY: A Sketchbook of Life is available here.

It's been a rough week for the government: the row over the collapsed Chinese spy trial has rolled on, all while the Chancellor has been trying to lay the groundwork ahead of next month's budget. Then, overnight, another issue has emerged as fans of the Maccabi Tel Aviv football team have been banned from attending a football game against Aston Villa next month, leading to accusations of antisemitism.Tim Shipman and Michael Simmons join James Heale to discuss the day's developments. Tim reveals how the Chinese spy row has been picked up by American legislators, threatening to undermine the Five Eyes security alliance. Meanwhile Michael points out that the news that the IMF has upgraded UK growth forecasts – to the second fastest growing of the G7 – might not be all it seems.Produced by Patrick Gibbons.Become a Spectator subscriber today to access this podcast without adverts.

Israel is pressing Hamas to honour the ceasefire agreement and return the bodies of hostages still held in Gaza. This comes as satellite images show limited aid convoys entering the enclave through Kerem Shalom, while displaced Palestinians in Khan Younis endure worsening living conditions amid shortages of food, fuel, and clean water. With more than 67,900 Palestinians killed since 2023 and uncertainty over Rafah's reopening, fears are growing that the fragile truce could collapse.

It took barely 24 hours for US President Donald Trump's Gaza proposal to fray at the edges, with Israel and Hamas hurling allegations of ceasefire violations at one another.

HEADLINE: Gaza Fragility and Germany's Trade Concerns with China GUEST NAME: Judy Dempsey SUMMARY:Judy Dempsey analyzes the fragile Gaza ceasefire, noting Gazans return to destruction while Hamas fights rivals and remains armed. Arab states are cautious about taking over governance. She credits President Trump for forcing the peace deal, appreciating his decisive, non-ideological approach. The discussion shifts to US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent's aggressive stance on China's rare earth export threats. Germany's powerful auto industry faces risk, but Berlin is responding calmly and diversifying its supply chains. 1922

Pakistan is once again underwater.In the country's north—specifically the province of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa—torrential monsoon rains dropped 150 millimeters in under an hour. That's six inches of rain, fast enough to overwhelm any drainage system. But here, it didn't just flood streets—it destroyed entire communities. At least 700 people are dead. Over 100 are missing. And in Bishnoi village, 50% of all homes are gone—flattened or washed away.This isn't just bad weather. It's a lethal convergence of natural vulnerability and systemic fragility: hilly terrain, deforestation, poor infrastructure, and collapsing governance capacity. Add climate change, and Pakistan—already one of the world's most climate-vulnerable nations—is facing a catastrophe that's becoming alarmingly routine.On today's episode of The International Risk Podcast, we're not just discussing weather patterns. We're talking about how extreme climate events are redrawing the map of risk—impacting state stability, migration flows, food security, and the future of regional cooperation.Today, we are joined by Dr. Erum Sattar, LLB, LLM, SJD, a Pakistani legal scholar specialising in water law amidst global environmental and institutional challenges.

Welcome back T&J fam! As we promised, we have brought back the Dirty Brew Review for the month of October. This week we throw it back to the only coffee we can start fall with; Pumpkin Spice Latte. Feel free to send us coffee ideas as we plan to use some listener requested coffees the rest of this month. Today, we also learn the difference between Deja Vu and Deja Reve, so buckle your seat belts for that discussion. Lastly, we dive into a discussion on the difficulty American Christians seem to have coexisting with "others". We discuss whether we, as Christians, are called to coexist and debate how much our founding fathers may have put us on the path to power and not coexistence. Enjoy!

SummaryIn this conversation, Benjamin Lee shares a personal story of a life-altering car accident that led him to reflect on the fragility of life and the certainty of death. He emphasizes the importance of living with purpose and urgency, encouraging listeners to consider their choices and the impact of their lives. Through biblical references, he discusses the inevitability of death and the need to live as if each day could be our last, ultimately urging a focus on eternal values rather than worldly success.TakeawaysLife can change in an instant, reminding us of its fragility.We should live with the awareness of our mortality.Death is a certainty that we all must face.Our lives are like a vapor, here one moment and gone the next.Living like we're dying encourages us to make meaningful choices.Eternity is real, and we should consider our eternal destination.Success should not be measured by worldly standards.We need to invest in our souls and spiritual well-being.Trusting God is essential in navigating life's uncertainties.Living fully means prioritizing what truly matters.Chapters00:00 A Life-Changing Moment02:26 Living Like You're Dying05:05 The Fragility of Life09:17 The Certainty of Death18:11 Measuring Our Lives21:37 Thinking About Eternitywww.icandopodcast.com

Following the tragic shooting of Charlie Kirk at Utah Valley University, Shannon Russell, who was at the event, Natalie Perry, Grace Raje, a student at UVU, and Kimball Call discuss the effects of the internet and polarization, how we can help each other and our families, and how we deal with these issues we're facing by recognizing and following our internal compass.   00:00 Introduction and Host's Welcome 00:44 Panel Introductions 01:21 Grace's Perspective on the Assassination 02:13 Natalie's Experience at the Event 08:07 Discussion on Social Media and Misinformation 19:23 Generational Differences and Digital Natives 27:15 Impact of Internet on Young Men 30:27 The Impact of Internet Rabbit Holes on Young Men 31:06 Promoting Positive Masculinity in Education 31:55 Escapism and Its Role in Extremism 32:54 The Importance of Connection Over Avoidance 33:26 Maternal Feminism vs. Modern Feminism 35:27 Fostering Critical Thinking in the Digital Age 37:30 The Dangers of Overstimulation and Dopamine Addiction 41:13 Challenging the Untruths of Fragility, Emotional Reasoning, and Us vs. Them 46:20 The Pressure to Form Immediate Opinions 50:22 Encouraging Civil Discourse and Embracing Failure 55:33 Conclusion and Final Thoughts   “We recognize and follow our intuitive internal compass to speak and act with integrity. And so as we teach this tenet at an international level, we are so blessed to hear from mothers and women all over the globe who believe in following our internal compass. And that is something that every person on this earth has and needs to learn how to use and, and how do we tap into that internal compass? How do we speak, how do we act? Those are the issues I think that we need to address and are very relevant to what happened this week.” - Natalie Perry   “Personally, I think we're gonna look back at kids having social media the same way we look back on how prevalent smoking was in the seventies and eighties… We're gonna say, ‘What were we thinking? Giving kids access to that amount of information before they were trained or taught how to process it, how to filter it out, how to use it for good or use it for other uses.' It's seriously doing some real damage to not just our kids, but to adults as well. I think there's a lot of interesting research coming out about that, but I don't think you need to be in the research to see the negative effects. I think you can just look at what's been happening over the last week.” - Kimball Call   “I think that the family unit is the best place and arguably the only place that's really suitable to hold space for our generation. As we process this disassociation, as we process this dystopian pit in our stomach and the expectation to speak articulately about our thoughts on social media, because that's what's expected of us, even though we're actually processing an emotional thing, and our hearts and brains aren't always communicating. So the family and mothers specifically have a very special and unique ability to hold space for my generation to not have to be articulate, to not have to post right away, to maybe even feel indifferent or to feel sick or to feel whatever they're feeling without criticism, because this is an emotional event.” - Grace Raje   “We need to get back to reality, and we need to help kids grow up in reality. So one of the best ways moms and parents can help their kids is to give them a childhood that resembles the childhood [they] probably experienced. . . .Before the internet was a thing, get kids off video games, get kids off. Don't let them have social media. Get them in touch with books. Help them fall in love with reading. Help them fall in love with nature, help them fall in love with sports and in-person social activities with friends.” - Kimball Call   “When you can stop seeing things as us versus them, you can think critically.” - Kimball Call   “There's this moral obligation to have opinions about everything. . . not that it's wrong to have an opinion, anybody who knows me knows I'm remarkably opinionated, but the problem is that we confuse our identity with our opinions, and then when you're wrong or you have new information, it's hard to admit that you're wrong because it feels like a compromisation of your worth. And the thing that I've learned in order to . . . interface with difficult concepts and be able to hear other people's opinions, is to remove my worth from my opinions, to remove my emotional response from my opinions, and then understand that my internal compass is the gift that I have to discern between the two, and that that takes practice. But as you continue to practice that, it'll be a lot easier, and all of a sudden I can just admit that I'm wrong about something, but I know who I am and I know the worth of the person I'm discussing this, too, and it's not so emotionally charged anymore. It can be about ideas and this sort of effortlessly starts to happen as we practice and as we recognize our own internal worth.” - Grace Raje   “Don't be afraid of failure. Don't be afraid of adversity. I think something that the Charlie Kirk assassination teaches us is that, I mean, here was a guy, whether or not you agree with his politics, here was a guy out there not afraid to be open with where he stood, and let people challenge him. He wasn't afraid of failure. He wasn't afraid of that, and I think in a lot of ways I've seen people on both sides of the aisle recently praising that behavior.” - Kimball Call     The Anxious Generation: How the Great Rewiring of Childhood Is Causing an Epidemic of Mental Illness by Jonathan Haidt The Coddling of the American Mind: How Good Intentions and Bad Ideas Are Setting Up a Generation for Failure by Greg Lukianoff and Jonathan Haidt  Kimball Call is an economics student at Brigham Young University and the lead editor of The Cougar Chronicle, an independent student newspaper.

In this episode of The Clay Edwards Show, host Clay Edwards kicks things off with an enthusiastic discussion about the power of talk radio in Mississippi, highlighting its edge over music stations in delivering live, local content that resonates with listeners. He reflects on why traditional music radio is fading in the era of streaming apps and on-demand playlists, questioning if anyone still calls in song requests or tunes into non-local DJs. Clay dives into a nostalgic rant about Mississippi's vibrant local music scene, reminiscing about legendary bands from the '80s and '90s like Lillian Axe, Charade, Cyrus, and Vandevere, and how the landscape evolved into nu-metal and college rock acts in the 2000s, including Storage 24, Max Cherry, Geronimo Rex, and Absence of Concern. He laments the shift toward cover bands and country acts today, while shouting out current standouts like The Stephens Brothers, Miles Flat, and Burnham Road for their crowd-drawing prowess. Clay poses a key question to the audience: Do you still listen to local radio for music, or have you switched entirely to apps like Spotify, Apple Music, or XM? The conversation takes a sharp turn into current events as Clay breaks down a chaotic incident at Tennessee State University (TSU), an HBCU, where two conservative debaters set up a table with signs reading "DEI should be illegal" and "Deport all illegals now—let's talk." What started as an invitation to debate escalated into what Clay describes as a "race riot," with students reacting dramatically, stealing signs, and mobbing the visitors' vehicles. He critiques the university's official statement for downplaying the chaos and coddling the students, calling it enabling and gaslighting. Clay argues that HBCUs like TSU should be defunded if they foster division, pointing out their permanent funding under the Trump administration and questioning the need for segregated institutions in modern America. He challenges listeners on topics like DEI (which he claims primarily benefits certain groups over Black communities), illegal immigration, and the double standards in media coverage of similar incidents if roles were reversed at a majority-white school. Throughout the episode, Clay fields calls and texts from listeners sharing their views on radio habits, XM subscriptions, and the TSU controversy, emphasizing accountability, situational awareness, and rejecting what he sees as forced narratives on race and equality. He touches on broader themes like the thin line between order and anarchy in communities, the dangers of ignoring threats from unstable individuals, and why he takes personal safety seriously in light of recent high-profile incidents. Later, Clay previews upcoming segments, including a story about a violent attack at an NBA YoungBoy concert and an interview with the director of the Sanderson Farms Championship golf tournament. He shares details on the event's logistics, player lineup (featuring stars like Max Homa, Zach Johnson, and local talents like Chad Ramey and Davis Riley), and how it brings world-class PGA Tour action to Jackson, Mississippi, with affordable tickets and family-friendly access. Join Clay for unfiltered takes on media, culture, politics, and local history in this lively, opinionated episode that sparks debate and reflection. Perfect for fans of raw talk radio—tune in and decide where you stand!

In this episode of the M3 Podcast, Rick and Dane dive deep into the illusion of control—how much of life and business is really in our hands versus shaped by chance, timing, and the unknown. From fatherhood to business setbacks, they share personal stories about losing big opportunities, adapting when life doesn't go to plan, and why learning to let go can actually create more success.Whether it's in relationships, leadership, or personal growth, this conversation challenges the idea that control equals safety—and explores how shifting focus from outcomes to daily process leads to more freedom and resilience.

In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Adam Wright and Dr. Nick Holton for a wide-ranging conversation on anti-fragility—the ability not just to endure difficulty, but to grow stronger because of it.   We go beyond the philosophical jargon and buzzwords and get into what anti-fragility actually looks like in real life, whether you're leading athletes, running an organization, or just trying to manage your own day-to-day stress.   We talk about: •What anti-fragility really means (not just resilience or grit). •How exposure to unpleasantness is essential—not optional—for growth. •Ways to practically use setbacks, stressors, and challenges as catalysts. •Why chasing happiness is less effective than learning to thrive amidst discomfort.   If you've ever wondered how to turn adversity into an advantage without romanticizing it or oversimplifying it, this episode will cut through the fluff and give you something you can actually apply.

In this episode, the hosts reflect on the somber anniversary of 9/11, discussing the recent political violence and its implications for freedom of speech. They explore the fragility of society, the desensitization to gun violence, and the importance of empathy in today's world. Personal anecdotes about safety in their work and experiences in a recent softball playoff highlight the need for community and kindness. The conversation wraps up with thoughts on a viral incident involving a Phillies Karen fan, emphasizing the importance of treating others with respect and compassion. www.patreon.com/aitdpod https://discord.gg/hm8WMUKVF8 Takeaways No one deserves violence for expressing their beliefs. Political violence is unacceptable, regardless of ideology. The current political climate is fragile and concerning. Empathy is crucial in navigating societal issues. Gun violence and mental health are intertwined problems. Communication is essential for resolving disagreements. Recent events highlight the desensitization to violence. Personal safety is a growing concern for many. Community support and kindness are vital in tough times. We must strive to treat each other with respect.  Chapters 00:00 Remembering 9/11 and Its Impact 00:50 Political Violence and Its Consequences 06:27 The Fragility of Political Discourse 11:37 The Role of Media and Social Media in Violence 17:27 Gun Control and Public Safety Solutions 23:40 Empathy in a Divided Society 28:55 Reflections on Loss and Danger in Driving 35:13 Empathy in the Face of Tragedy 35:41 Union Dynamics and Workplace Challenges 38:23 Softball Playoffs: Triumphs and Trials 44:25 The Philly's Karen Incident: A Lesson in Kindness THE OPINIONS EXPRESSED OR VIEWS EXPRESSED ON THIS PODCAST ARE THOSE OF THE HOSTS AND GUESTS AND DO NOT NECESSARILY REFLECT ANY DELIVERY COMPANY
